  • Receiver synchronization for UWB TDOA localization

    Creator:
    Baek, Seungjin
    Abstract:
    Pulsed ultra-wideband (UWB) radio uses extremely short pulses to transmit information. Such pulses provide very fine timing information, which has led to technological advances in high-precision localization. This thesis investigates UWB localization strategies with a focus on receiver synchronization algorithms for time-difference-of-arrival localization to achieve centimeter accuracies in a 3-dimensional...

  • Quantum and Classical Simulation of Electronic Transport at the Nanoscale

    Creator:
    Gruss, Daniel S.
    Abstract:
    Time-dependent electronic transport is increasingly important to the state-of-the-art device design and fabrication. The development of nanoscale sensing, the harnessing and control of structural fluctuations, and the advancement of next-generation materials all require a treatment of quantum dynamics beyond the level of traditional methods and a more nuanced approach to...

  • Target-based coverage extension of 802.11 MANETs via constrained UAV mobility

    Creator:
    Johnson, Taylor N.
    Abstract:
    MANETs are known to be useful in situations where mobile nodes need to communicate and coordinate in dynamic environments with no access to fixed network infrastructure. However, connectivity problems can occur when sub-groups within a MANET move out of communication range from one another. The increasingly prolific use of UAVs...

  • 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...

  • The Analysis of Hormone-dependent Transcription Factors and lncRNAs in Seeds by RNA Sequencing

    Creator:
    Sall, Khadidiatou
    Abstract:
    Seed dormancy is defined as the inability of viable seeds to germinate under conditionsotherwise favorable for germination. Dormancy provides a strategy for seeds to germinateat an appropriate time. Abscisic acid (ABA) is a major hormone involved in the regulationof seed dormancy. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms of dormancy, the twoexperimental...

  • Small group discussions in large lecture : connections between teacher facilitation and student participation

    Creator:
    Roth, Jennifer A. (Jennifer Albretsen)
    Abstract:
    An investigation was made to determine teacher facilitation techniques in large lecture physics classrooms that foster small group discussion. Video recordings of an introductory calculus-based physics class were taken for the 2008-2009 academic year at Oregon State University. These videos were analyzed to determine student participation in small group discussion...

  • Vehicle routing and scheduling with delivery and installation

    Creator:
    Kim, Kyoung Cheol
    Abstract:
    For manufacturing and service industries to stay competitive in this rapidly changing, globalized world, one of the most important operations, and one that many businesses struggle to plan and manage efficiently, is material handling. There has been a large amount of research on various vehicle routing problems (VRPs) in recent...

  • Bioeconomic Simulation Modeling of Fisheries : Three Essays

    Creator:
    Cusack, Christopher Inju
    Abstract:
    Researchers rely on bioeconomic models to guide research and generate fishery management advice for commercial fisheries. Due partly to a paradigm shift towards ecosystem based fishery management, increasing complexity in the characteristics of the problems has meant that bioeconomic simulation models are becoming more prevalent in the fisheries literature. However...

  • 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...

    Creator:
    Hu, Kangmin
    Abstract:
    High speed serial links are critical components for addressing the growing demand for I/O bandwidth in next-generation computing applications, such as many-core systems, backplane and optical data communications. Due to continued process scaling and circuit innovations, today's CMOS serial link transceivers can achieve tens of Gb/s per pin. However, most...
