  • Environment-adaptive RF Sensing with Transferable ANN Features

    Creator:
    Wang, Guangxin
    Abstract:
    Radio frequency (RF) sensing arises as a promising option for enabling the internet of things (IoT) applications that transform our life into a world of smart homes, smart cities, and smart industries. The innovation of IoT reveals the benefits of RF sensing across cost, pervasiveness, unobtrusiveness, and privacy. However, challenges...

  • Exploring Indoor Navigation Based on 9-dof Kalman Filter and SLAM Algorithm

    Creator:
    Qin, Shuxian
    Abstract:
    Traditional localization techniques rely on triangulation or trilateration, where in a set of three or more stationary known locations is used to estimate a “client” position. For inertial navigation, these techniques can estimate client positions merely using the measured data from tri-axial accelerometers and gyroscopes. However, the use of double...

  • Information-theoretic Approach to Design and Evaluate Privacy-preserving and Fair Frameworks for Continuous High-dimensional Data

    Creator:
    Alsulaimawi, Zahir Ahmed Hussein
    Abstract:
    Deep learning is becoming the latest trend in sensitive applications, such as healthcare, criminal justice, and finance. As these new applications emerge, adversaries are circumventing them. Further, there have been concerns about the possibility of bias and discrimination in predictive applications. In order to address these issues, we propose an...

  • Indoor Localization Using Direction of Arrival Approach

    Creator:
    Zhang, Tingwei
    Abstract:
    In this paper, a Direction of Arrival (DOA) based system is proposed. This method searches the direction relative to the array to find where the signal source is located. The proposed system can achieve sub-meter level accuracy with a near real-time update rate. Also, we introduced several refinement methods including...

  • An Anthology of Next-Generation WSNs and Transformative IoT Use-Cases

    Creator:
    Williams, Jennifer M.
    Abstract:
    The Internet of Things (IoT) paradigm brought an ever-increasing dependence on low-power devices to collect sensor data and transmit that information to the cloud, placing greater demand on connectivity and lifespan. In response, rapid worldwide innovation demonstrates the trade-offs in processing, communication, and energy consumption with diverse approaches to low-power...

  • 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...

  • 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...

  • Target Localization Using Approximate Maximum Likelihood for MIMO Radar Systems

    Creator:
    Almalki, Abdulellah
    Abstract:
    This thesis deals with target localization using multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radars. In the field of communications, navigation, radar, and sensing networks, one of the common and most sophisticated problems is target localization. We develop a target localization scheme in distributed MIMO radar systems using bistatic range measurements. The localization approach...
