  • Ultra low capacitance RFIC probe

    Creator:
    Jacob, Michael E.
    Abstract:
    In Radio Frequency Integrated Circuits (RFIC) or high frequency digital ICs, there is a demand to probe the internal nodes for testing. The ultra low capacitance RFIC probe presented in his work is a flexible tool for these applications. The probe utilizes the coupling between a tungsten needle and the...

  • Channel Estimation in TDD Massive MIMO Systems with Subsampled Data at BS

    Creator:
    Tian, Yichuan
    Abstract:
    Massive MIMO is a promising technique for future 5G communications due to its high spectrum and energy efficiency. To realize its potential performance gain, accurate channel state information at transmitter side (CSIT) is essential. Frequency division duplex (FDD) is widely employed by the most cellular systems today. However, it requires...

  • Multi-User Massive MIMO Channel Estimation Based on Kalman Filters

    Creator:
    Yao, Zhaoda
    Abstract:
    In wireless communication, channel state information (CSI) is essential for data detection. Fast fading coefficients estimation is important in order to acquire accurate CSI. Kalman filters (KF) are widely used for real time parameter estimation and can be used to estimate the fast fading coefficients of a mobile communication channel....

  • Variable sampling compensation of networked control systems with delays using neural networks

    Creator:
    Lopez-Echevarria, Daniel
    Abstract:
    In networked control systems (NCS) information or packets usually flow from a sensor or a set of sensors to a remotely located controller. Then the controller processes the received information and sends a series of control commands to the actuators through a communication network which could be either wireless or...

  • A channelized digital receiver design for UWB sytems in a multipath indoor environment

    Creator:
    Chang, Yuhao
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a channelized digital receiver design for UWB sytems in a multipath indoor environment. The UWB technology has been used for commercial and military purposes due to a number of advantages such as low-power consumption, noise-like and carrier free. The energy of UWB signal is spread over a...

  • Immune radio architecture for platform interference

    Creator:
    Alban, Eduardo
    Abstract:
    The decrease of switching times accompanied by the corresponding increase of clock speeds and data rates, contributes to improve the overall system computational performance. At the same time, they also affect wireless communications due to an increment in the emissions of electromagnetic radiation on the radio bands. In this dissertation...

  • Non-data aided parametric based carrier frequency estimators for bursty GMSK communication systems

    Creator:
    Kandukuri, Ajay
    Abstract:
    Estimating the carrier frequency from a modulated waveform is one of the most important functions of a coherent signal receiver. Good performance and low bit error rates are obtained by coherent demodulation. Therefore, exact knowledge of the received signal carrier frequency is critical for communication systems. Also due to the...

  • Understanding the ultra-wideband channel within a computer chassis

    Creator:
    Redfield, Stephen J.
    Abstract:
    Recent developments in computing technology have generated a demand for more streamlined and effective test systems. By replacing traditional in-chassis wired interconnects with a broadcast wireless system, fault detection and error susceptibility will drastically improve, input/output capabilities will expand, and routing complexity will decrease. Ultra-wideband impulse radio's (UWB-IR) characteristic multipath-immunity...

  • Adaptive load balancing metric for WLANs

    Creator:
    Ryou, Jong bum
    Abstract:
    As the number of mobile devices accessing large-scale WLANs such as campus and metropolitan area networks increases, the need for load balancing among the cells becomes crucial. In addition, the network must also support some minimum handoff tolerance defined by an application. A number of load balancing techniques have been...
