  • 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.

  • 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...

  • Recognizing human group activities in video through mining optimal features

    Creator:
    Amer, Mohamed R.
    Abstract:
    Given a video, we would like to recognize group activities, localize video parts where these activities occur, and detect actors involved in them. To this and, we propose a novel, mid-level feature, called control point, for representing group activities. The control points are aimed at summarizing visual cues, lifting from...

  • An ultra low voltage micropower GPS receiver RF front-end for wildlife tracking

    Creator:
    Heiberg, Adam C.
    Abstract:
    A fully integrated CMOS GPS receiver RF front end optimized for low power operation is presented. The system operates with a supply voltage down to 250 mV. A prototype has been fabricated in a 0.13μm CMOS process and includes a low voltage LNA, quadrature oscillators, and quadrature mixers. It exhibits...

  • Efficient VLSI architectures for MIMO and cryptography systems

    Creator:
    Li, Qingwei
    Abstract:
    Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communication systems have recently been considered as one of the most significant technology breakthroughs for modern wireless communications, due to the higher spectral efficiency and improved link reliability. The sphere decoding algorithm (SDA) has been widely used for maximum likelihood (ML) detection in MIMO systems. It is...

  • 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...

  • Noise optimization for low-voltage CMOS audio preamplifier systems

    Creator:
    Brown, Matthew Eugene
    Abstract:
    There is a large and growing market for portable consumer audio products with very small size. As the size of these products is reduced, the area occupied by batteries becomes significant and hence limits the number of batteries to one. In order to build such small products, high levels of...

  • One-to-many node disjoint paths routing in generalized hypercube, dense Gaussian, and hexagonal mesh networks

    Creator:
    Alsaleh, Omar I.
    Abstract:
    Routing from a single source node to multiple destination nodes using node disjoint paths (NDP) has many important applications in parallel systems. For example, if a source node wants to send distinct messages to distinct destination nodes, then the one-to-many NDP routing is useful. Unlike parallel systems with shared-memory, each...

  • 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...

  • Single-level dynamic register caching architecture for high-performance superscalar processors

    Creator:
    Liebert, John A.
    Abstract:
    The amount of instruction level parallelism (ILP) that can be exploited depends greatly on the size of the instruction window and the number of in-flight instructions the processor can support. However, this requires a register file with a large set of physical registers for renaming and multiple ports to provide...
