  • Multi-antenna OFDM systems in the presence of phase noise and doubly-selective fading

    Creator:
    Zhang, Yu
    Abstract:
    Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM), which has been very attractive for future high rate wireless communications, is very robust to channel multipath fading effect while providing high transmission data rate with high spectral efficiency. Multiple antennas can be combined with OFDM to increase diversity gain and to improve spectral efficiency...

  • Advanced time-varying approaches for modeling the multipath channel in wireless network

    Creator:
    Aljerme, Abdelkader A.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation proposes the use of advanced time-varying approaches for modeling the dynamics of the multipath channel in wireless communication networks. These advanced time-varying approaches include linear Kalman innovation models in observable block companion form, and neural network-based models. The e˙ectiveness of these type of models is evaluated through three...

  • Evolutionary Approach to Efficient Provisioning and Self-organization in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)

    Creator:
    Khanna, Rahul, 1966-
    Abstract:
    Advances in low-power digital integration and microelectro-mechanical systems (MEMS) have paved the way for micro-sensors. These sensors are equipped with data processing capabilities along with sensory circuits. Sensor data are processed on these individual sensors and transmitted to the target (sink). Lowcost integration and small sizes of these sensors have...

  • Efficient decoder design for error correction codes

    Creator:
    He, Jinjin
    Abstract:
    Error correction codes (ECCs) have been widely used in communication systems and storage devices. Nowadays, the rapid development of integrated circuit technologies makes feasible the implementation of powerful ECCs such as turbo code and low-density parity-check (LDPC) code. However, these high-performance codes require complex decoding algorithms, resulting in large hardware...

  • Applied color processing

    Creator:
    Zhang, Heng
    Abstract:
    The quality of a digital image pipeline relies greatly on its color reproduction which should at a minimum handle the color constancy, and the final judgment of the excellence of the pipeline is made through subjective observations by humans. This dissertation addresses a few topics surrounding the color processing of...

  • Efficient detection and scheduling for MIMO-OFDM systems

    Creator:
    Liu, Wei
    Abstract:
    Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antennas can be exploited to provide high data rate using a limited bandwidth through multiplexing gain. MIMO combined with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) could potentially provide high data rate and high spectral efficiency in frequency-selective fading channels. MIMO-OFDM technology has been widely employed in modern communication...
