  • Diversity combining ARQ over the m(> 2)-ary unidirectional channel

    Creator:
    Elarief, Noha
    Abstract:
    In diversity combining automatic repeat request (ARQ), erroneous packets are combined together forming a single, more reliable, packet. In this thesis, we give a diversity combining scheme for the m-ary unidirectional channel. A system using the given scheme with a t-unidirectional error detecting code is able to correct up to...

  • Power reduction of MPEG video decoding for mobile multimedia systems

    Creator:
    Lewis, James M.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this thesis is to explore methods which can reduce the power dissipation of a mobile system while decoding MPEG video. MPEG decoding is a microprocessor intensive process that makes heavy use of both the L1 and L2 caches as well as main memory. The heavy load placed...

  • Design techniques for wideband low-power Delta-Sigma analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Wang, Yan
    Abstract:
    Delta-Sigma (ΔΣ) analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are traditionally used in high quality audio systems, instrumentation and measurement (I&M) and biomedical devices. With the continued downscaling of CMOS technology, they are becoming popular in wideband applications such as wireless and wired communication systems,high-definition television and radar systems. There are two general realizations...

  • Some communication algorithms for Gaussian and Eisenstein-Jacobi networks

    Creator:
    Albader, Bader
    Abstract:
    Interconnection networks play important roles in designing high performance computers. Recently two new classes of interconnection networks based on the concept of Gaussian and Eisenstein-Jacobi integers were introduced. In this research, efficient routing and broadcasting algorithms for these networks are developed. Furthermore, constructing edge disjoint Hamiltonian cycles in Gaussian networks...

  • 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...

  • Channel estimation and data detection for mobile MIMO OFDM systems

    Creator:
    Gao, Jie
    Abstract:
    Designing spectral efficient, high-speed wireless links that offer high quality- of-service and range capability has been a critical research and engineering challenge. In this thesis, we mainly address the complexity and performance issues of channel estimation and data detection in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems over...

    Creator:
    Anantha, Madhusudhanan
    Abstract:
    An n-bit Gray code is an ordered set of all 2n binary strings of length n. The special property of this listing is that Hamming distance between consecutive vectors is exactly 1. If the last and first codeword also have a Hamming distance 1 then the code is said to...

  • Network coding in relay networks

    Creator:
    Alban, Eduardo
    Abstract:
    Transmission over wireless networks presents multiple technical challenges due to noise, interference, fading, power constraints and bandwidth limitation. Different solutions have been propposed to overcome these issues and some of them are treated here. Cooperative diversity has been proposed as an implementation for networks where terminals are restricted to using...

  • 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...

    Creator:
    Cui, Zhiqiang
    Abstract:
    Low-Density Parity-check (LDPC) codes have attracted considerable attention due to their capacity approaching performance over AWGN channel and highly parallelizable decoding schemes. They have been considered in a variety of industry standards for the next generation communication systems. In general, LDPC codes achieve outstanding performance with large codeword lengths (e.g.,...
