  • Efficient detection and scheduling for MIMO-OFDM systems

    Creator:
    Liu, Wei
    Abstract:
    Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antennas can be exploited to provide high data rate using a limited bandwidth through multiplexing gain. MIMO combined with orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) could potentially provide high data rate and high spectral efficiency in frequency-selective fading channels. MIMO-OFDM technology has been widely employed in modern communication...

  • 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...

  • Position estimation in indoor localization with trilateration

    Creator:
    Su, Zhenqiang
    Abstract:
    Triangulateration uses geometric distance to estimate the location of user by employing techniques like received signal strength (RSS), time-of-arrival (TOA), time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) and image processing. Radio frequency (RF) signal positioning using TOA or TDOA techniques generally requires timing synchronization of the anchors and/or the anchors and targets. If the desired...

  • Evolutionary Approach to Efficient Provisioning and Self-organization in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN)

    Creator:
    Khanna, Rahul, 1966-
    Abstract:
    Advances in low-power digital integration and microelectro-mechanical systems (MEMS) have paved the way for micro-sensors. These sensors are equipped with data processing capabilities along with sensory circuits. Sensor data are processed on these individual sensors and transmitted to the target (sink). Lowcost integration and small sizes of these sensors have...

  • 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...

  • Threshold Selection Based on the SNR in Time of Arrival Localization System

    Creator:
    Lyu, Tao
    Abstract:
    Threshold-based time of arrival (TOA) estimation is a technique for high-precision indoor localization. Existing threshold selection methods, such as xed thresh- old and normalized threshold methods, do not consider the signal-to-noise radio (SNR) value at the receiver. This is not desired for high-precision positioning. A proper threshold value depends on...

  • Performance and optimization of pulsed UWB localization with large number of sources

    Creator:
    Kwon, Changho
    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 focuses on techniques and experiments of Time-Difference-of-Arrival (TDOA) localization of a large number of simultaneous sources. First, common localization techniques such...

  • Directional 60 GHz communication networks

    Creator:
    Yildirim, Ferhat (Ahmet Ferhat)
    Abstract:
    It is well known that multipath effects cause inter-symbol interference (ISI) for high-speed signaling and ultimately limit the achievable data rate at any frequency band. In this thesis, we study several different methods to tackle this issue and provide solutions for establishing efficient wireless links that can provide several Gbps...

  • Evaluation of UWB techniques for indoor position locationing

    Creator:
    Chou, Tai Chian
    Abstract:
    Time of Arrival (TOA) is a popular technique used for geolocation. This thesis evaluates the use of TOA techniques indoors. The accuracy of measuring distances using TOA is dependent on the bandwidth of the system and the multipath conditions between the receiver and transmitter. System bandwidth has a significant effect...

    Creator:
    Keskin, Nurcan
    Abstract:
    Wireless power transfer (WPT) is a way to transfer power from one device to another without any wire or cable connections. Although the technology has been around for more than 100 years, it is gaining popularity in recent years due to the ever-increasing demand for faster and more frequent charging...
