Coverage issues in wireless sensor networks.
(2006)
A fundamental issue in the deployment of a large scale Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is the ability of the network to cover the region of interest. While it is important to know if the region is covered by the deployed ...
Improved nonlinear filtering for target tracking.
(2007)
The objective of this research is to develop robust and accurate tracking algorithms for various tracking applications. These tracking problems can be formulated as nonlinear filtering problems. The tracking algorithms ...
Mid-infrared emitter technology.
(2006)
As part of an effort to improve heat dissipation from mid-infrared laser materials during operation, work was performed on mounting laser bars in an epi-side-down configuration. Results obtained from packaging interband ...
Estimation of Doppler and polarimetric variables for weather radars.
(2001)
A method for estimation of Doppler spectrum and its moments as well as several polarimetric variables on pulsed weather radars is presented. This scheme operates on oversampled echoes in range, that is samples of in-phase ...
A study on mobile ad hoc networks equipped with free-space optical capabilities.
(2006)
A mobile ad hoc network (MANET) offers a cost-effective solution for communications in areas where infrastructure is unavailable, e.g. emergency response, disaster recovery, and battlefield scenarios. Traditional MANETs ...
AGILE: ARBITRARY GRID LOGISTIC REGRESSION USING INTEL SOFTWARE GUARD EXTENSIONS
(2016)
Biomedical data are often collected and stored at different sites. How to take the most advantage of the data to provide better health care for patients and to contribute to academic research becomes more and more important ...
Performance evaluation of CDMA systems.
(2001)
Also, various coding techniques are compared for the forward link of IS-2000 systems in this dissertation. The possible application of low-density parity-check (LDPC) coding in CDMA systems is investigated. Its performance ...
THEORETICAL STUDIES OF MULTI-MODE NOON STATES FOR APPLICATIONS IN QUANTUM METROLOGY AND PROPOSALS OF EXPERIMENTAL SETUPS FOR THEIR GENERATION
(2018-05)
Quantum entanglement is a fascinating physical resource that is central to the field of quantum information processing with important applications in such areas as quantum computing, quantum communication, quantum metrology, ...
MULTI-PHOTON TOLERANT QUANTUM KEY DISTRIBUTION PROTOCOLS FOR SECURED GLOBAL COMMUNICATION
(2017-07)
This dissertation investigates the potential of multi-photon tolerant protocols for satellite-aided global quantum key distribution (QKD). Recent investigations like braided single-stage protocol and the implementation of ...
Non-oxidative conversion of methane in a DC plasma reactor.
(2004)
The interest in natural gas utilization has increased tremendously over the last decade. Natural gas is being looked at as an energy source, as well as a basis for the production of many chemicals. New technologies are ...
