Low power digital baseband core for wireless Micro-Neural-Interface using CMOS sub/near-threshold circuit
(2013-12)
This thesis presents the work on designing and implementing a low power digital baseband core with custom-tailored protocol for wirelessly powered Micro-Neural-Interface (MNI) System-on-Chip (SoC) to be implanted within ...
Nanostructured thermoelectric materials and optical method for thermal conductivity measurement
(2013-07)
A good thermoelectric material has large electrical conductivity, large Seebeck coefficient, and small thermal conductivity. Among the different techniques to achieve small thermal conductivity is the nanostructuring method. ...
Metamaterial radiation from attenuated total reflection at terahertz frequencies
(2013-12)
The focus of this research was to explore the behavior of two-dimensional planar metamaterials or metafilms and understand the various excitation schemes for application of metafilms to Terahertz-Attenuated Total Reflection ...
Low-power and high-performance SRAM design in high variability advanced CMOS technology
(2017-05)
As process technologies shrink, the size and number of memories on a chip are exponentially increasing. Embedded SRAMs are a critical component in modern digital systems, and they strongly impact the overall power, ...
Strategies for improving efficiency and efficacy of image quality assessment algorithms
(2015-05)
Image quality assessment (IQA) research aims to predict the qualities of images in a manner that agrees with subjective quality ratings. Over the last several decades, the major impetus in IQA research has focused on ...
Adaptive and hybrid schemes for efficient parallel squaring and cubing units
(2014-12)
Squaring (X2) and cubing (X3) units are special operations of multiplication used in many applications, such as image compression, equalization, decoding and demodulation, 3D graphics, scientific computing, artificial ...
New approaches and a subjective database for video quality assessment
(2014-07)
Video quality assessment plays an important role in multimedia systems that process digital images/videos such as video codec, video streaming server. The use of video quality assessment algorithm helps optimize system ...
Study of the Al-Zawea oil refinery power system in Libya
(2016-12)
Libya is an oil exporting country located in the middle of the North Africa. Exporting oil is the major income resource for the economics of the country. Al-Zawea refinery is one of the oil refineries in Libya. It is the ...
