  • Target-based coverage extension of 802.11 MANETs via constrained UAV mobility

    Creator:
    Johnson, Taylor N.
    Abstract:
    MANETs are known to be useful in situations where mobile nodes need to communicate and coordinate in dynamic environments with no access to fixed network infrastructure. However, connectivity problems can occur when sub-groups within a MANET move out of communication range from one another. The increasingly prolific use of UAVs...

  • Dynamic and Dual Streaming Methods for H.264 Video and Parallel Performance Modeling

    Creator:
    Johnson, Taylor N.
    Abstract:
    Traditional approaches to streaming H.264 video over a network typically rely on a single method of transport (i.e., reliable or unreliable) and/or use static values for parameters that can have a significant negative impact on the perceptual quality of the received video. This dissertation presents a dynamic method for wireless...

  • Adaptive Streaming Methods using Dual Protocols and Reinforcement Learning

    Creator:
    Gatimu, Kevin
    Abstract:
    The ubiquity of high quality video and proliferation of mobile devices has contributed to an unprecedented rise in video consumption. HTTP, in conjunction with adaptive streaming, has become the de facto mechanism for delivering the vast majority of video as it readily caters to heterogeneous networks and devices. This dissertation...

  • Urban military operation mobility model

    Creator:
    Kang, Ho Sung
    Abstract:
    A Mobile Ad-hoc NETwork (MANET) is collection of wireless mobile nodes without a network infrastructure or centralized administration. Although MANETs can be used in many applications, such as mobile Internet, military communication, and disaster relief networks, a number of challenges remain. These include routing, medium access control, security, scalability, energy...

  • 802.11 Channel Switching for High-Definition Video Streaming

    Creator:
    Sullivan, Erin
    Abstract:
    As screen resolution and video decoding capability have increased, high-definition (HD) video in resolutions as high as 1920 x 1080 is rapidly becoming the standard. Ad-hoc streaming of HD video over 802.11 wireless networks, e.g., streaming from a mobile device to a television, is convenient for users, but is hampered...

  • Spatial motion vector recovery in wireless high definition video transmission using H.264 over WLANs

    Creator:
    Gatimu, Kevin
    Abstract:
    Mobile devices are becoming more prevalent and complex. As a result, the wireless communication aspect of these devices is becoming increasingly significant. At the same time, video demands in terms of availability and quality are also on the uprise. High definition (HD) video is the standard of choice for meeting...

  • Optimization of Flexible Dual-TCP/UDP Streaming Protocol For HD Video Streaming over 802.11 Wireless Networks

    Creator:
    Dhamodaran, Arul N.
    Abstract:
    Flexible Dual-TCP/UDP Streaming Protocol with Adaptive Bitstream Prioritization (FDSP with Adaptive-BP) is a new method for streaming H.264-encoded High-definition (HD) video over WLANs. Traditionally, video streaming is done either using Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) or User Datagram Protocol (UDP) protocol, resulting in either rebuffering or packet loss respectively. While FDSP-based...

  • On the domain generalizability of RF fingerprints through multifractal dimension representation

    Creator:
    Johnson, Benjamin
    Abstract:
    RF data-driven device fingerprinting through the use of deep learning has recently surfaced as a possible method for secure device identification and authentication. Traditional approaches are commonly susceptible to the domain adaptation problem where a model trained on data from one domain performs badly when tested on data from a...

  • RF and Millimeter-wave Techniques to Improve Scalability and Efficiency of Digital Beamforming Arrays

    Creator:
    Johnson, Manoj
    Abstract:
    Spectrum overcrowding, ever increasing demand for high data rate and increased mobility requirements are three major challenges 5G-technology is trying to address. In this thesis I start with a RF front-end technique that deals with blocker interference arising from spectrum overcrowding both across frequency bands and within the same frequency...

  • A case for application-based linear transformers : applied towards text-to-spectrogram

    Creator:
    Agostinelli, Victor
    Abstract:
    Various natural language processing (NLP) tasks necessitate deep models that are fast, efficient, and small based on their ultimate application at the edge or elsewhere. While significant investigation has furthered the efficiency and reduced the size of these models, reducing their downstream latency without significant trade-offs remains a difficult task....
