  • Ultra-Wideband Relay Communication Systems

    Creator:
    Abbasi, Arash
    Abstract:
    Impulse-radio ultra-wide-band (IR-UWB) signaling is a promising technique for high-speed, short-range relay communications networks. Depending on how the relay node retransmits the signal, there are two main relay schemes: conventional one-directional (one-way) relay model, and bi-directional (two-way) relay model. In bi-directional relay communications, wireless network coding (WNC), also called physical-layer...

  • Implementation of Distributed Localized Communications

    Creator:
    Snyder, Thomas
    Abstract:
    Artificial collectives are useful for accomplishing tasks that require teamwork from multiple simple robots. Multiple robot and collective testbeds have been developed, yet none stay committed to leverage the local interactions, group size, and imperfect information assumptions that strengthen biological collectives. A review of the collective and multiple robot literature,...

  • Feedback in multiple antenna wireless communication systems

    Creator:
    Xu, Tao
    Abstract:
    Multiple-input multiple-output wireless systems promise significant capacity gain and/or diversity gain over single antenna systems. If channel state information (CSI) is available at both the transmitter and the receiver, the performance can be further improved. In this thesis, first, we study binary index feedback problem in beamforming systems when the...

  • A 2.4GHZ direct conversion mixer with offset cancellation

    Creator:
    Schmidbauer, Hardy
    Abstract:
    Dynamic DC offset is one of the biggest problems preventing the implementation of single chip receivers. This thesis presents a 2.4GHz downconversion mixer designed to work with adaptive DC offset cancellation for a fully integrated direct conversion receiver. Offset can be removed by dynamically changing the PFET load bias in...

  • Application of WiMAX to aviation communications

    Creator:
    Kim, Sang Jun
    Abstract:
    The US military is evaluating the capabilities of emerging technologies based on IEEE 802.16 standard as a potential commercial off-the-shelf solution to support the communication requirements of the future war. In the last few years, development in military and telecommunication industries have focused on an intensive use of broadband systems,...

  • PAPR Reduction of Optical OFDM Systems with Exponential Companding Transform and Zero Padding

    Creator:
    Chen, Deyan
    Abstract:
    Optical wireless communication (OWC) is an alternative to radio frequency (RF)communication with a signi cantly larger and unregulated spectrum. In OWC systems, optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (O-OFDM) with intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) is commonly used. There are two common signal structures in most OWC systems based on...

  • Conserving energy in TCP for mobile ad-hoc networks

    Creator:
    Agarwal, Sandeep, 1973-
    Abstract:
    The widespread use of TCP as a transport layer protocol for mobile ad-hoc networks and wireline networks has motivated the need to make its implementation highly power efficient specially with respect to ad hoc radio networks. Over the past years many researchers have developed energy efficient protocols for mobile ad-hoc...

  • Hardware-Based Security Enhancement for Near Field Communication and Other Close Proximity Inductive-Based Communication Systems

    Creator:
    Kness, Philip J.
    Abstract:
    Several hardware-based security improvements to Near Field Communication (NFC) and Radio-Frequency Identification (RFID) systems are developed and presented. The improvements are intended to be used in conjunction with software encryption to ensure robust security. Two main implementations for a more secure NFC or RFID system are presented: a jamming system,...
