  • Directional 60 GHz communication networks

    Creator:
    Yildirim, Ferhat (Ahmet Ferhat)
    Abstract:
    It is well known that multipath effects cause inter-symbol interference (ISI) for high-speed signaling and ultimately limit the achievable data rate at any frequency band. In this thesis, we study several different methods to tackle this issue and provide solutions for establishing efficient wireless links that can provide several Gbps...

  • Sensor communication network within a desktop computer using the DC powerline

    Creator:
    Bahniuk, Eileen Kei
    Abstract:
    Powerline communication (PLC), is becoming a more commonplace method for data transmission, however it is still a very new medium for data transmission, and international standards for powerline communication are still in the process of being developed and established. PLC can provide a means of simplifying the device connectivity to...

  • Hybrid AOA and TDOA Solution for Transmitter Positioning

    Creator:
    Ahmed, Sarah A.
    Abstract:
    Accurate positioning has become an active research area in recent years. It has a wide range of applications in many fields such as navigation, asset tracking, health care, proximity marketing/location-based advertising, and sport analytics. Transmitter positioning via radio frequency (RF) signals is the most widely encountered scenario, and it uses...

  • Exploring IMU Attitude and Position Estimation for Improved Location in Indoor Environments

    Creator:
    Zhang, Shengkai
    Abstract:
    Wearable sensors with an inertial measurement unit (IMU) are popular for indoor positioning and activity pattern detection. The IMUs can be connected to a wireless transmission module, allowing users to monitor and process motion-related parameters remotely. Because of the complexity and uncertainty of signals in indoor environments, a radio frequency...

  • Ultra-wideband indoor localization systems

    Creator:
    Ye, Ruiqing
    Abstract:
    Indoor localization systems have a variety of applications such as tracking of assets, indoor robot navigation, and monitoring of people (e.g. patients) in hospitals or at home. Global positioning system (GPS) offers location accuracy of several meters and is mainly used for outdoor location-based applications as its accuracy degrades significantly...

  • Pulsed ultra-wideband: transmission, detection, and performance

    Creator:
    Zhao, Shiwei
    Abstract:
    Ultra-wideband (UWB) communication has emerged as a very promising technology for short-range wireless applications, including high-speed multimedia transmissions and sensor networks. UWB system designs involve many different aspects covering analog and digital processing, channel estimation and modeling, and modulation and demodulation. Although UWB still faces many challenges, significant progress has...

  • RF Front End Tuning Methods for Wireless Power Transfer Systems

    Creator:
    Keskin, Nurcan
    Abstract:
    Wireless power transfer (WPT) is a way to transfer power from one device to another without any wire or cable connections. Although the technology has been around for more than 100 years, it is gaining popularity in recent years due to the ever-increasing demand for faster and more frequent charging...

  • Position estimation in indoor localization system

    Creator:
    Qiao, Tianzhu
    Abstract:
    Indoor positioning systems can be used for many applications such as indoor navigation,emergence response, asset monitoring, and shopper assistance. Due to the weak received signal and multipath reflection, the global positioning system (GPS) generally does not work in indoor environments. There are a variety of radio frequency (RF) signals and...

    Abstract:
    In this thesis, maximum likelihood Doppler frequency estimation and phase noise suppression algorithms for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems are presented. A novel handover decision algorithm for wireless systems, called predictive base station switching (PBSS), is also introduced. The maximum Doppler Frequency is the ratio of the speed of...

  • Security protocols for linear network coding

    Creator:
    Adeli, Majid
    Abstract:
    Network coding, as the next generation of data routing protocols, enables each intermediate node in a network to process and encode its received data before forwarding it to the next nodes. Hence, the core idea in network coding is to allow a network to encode the data that is being...
