Channel detection on two-dimensional magnetic recording
(2013)
Two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) coupled with shingled-magnetic recording (SMR) is one of next generation techniques for increasing the hard disk drive (HDD) capacity up to 10 Tbit/in2 in order to meet the growing ...
WAVEFORM AND TRANSCEIVER OPTIMIZATION FOR MULTI-FUNCTIONAL AIRBORNE RADAR THROUGH ADAPTIVE PROCESSING
(2013)
Pulse compression techniques have been widely used for target detection and remote sensing. The primary concern for pulse compression is the sidelobe interference. Waveform design is an important method to improve the ...
ADAPTIVE AND SECURE DISTRIBUTED SOURCE CODING FOR VIDEO AND IMAGE COMPRESSION
(2013)
Distributed Video Coding (DVC) is rapidly gaining popularity as a low cost, robust video coding solution, that reduces video encoding complexity. DVC is built on Distributed Source Coding (DSC) principles where correlation ...
Thermal Conductivity Measurements of IV-VI Semiconductor Nanostructures
(2013)
This dissertation describes photoluminescence (PL) measurement and finite element thermal modeling to quantify optically induced surface heating of lead chalcogenide (IV-VI) semiconductor thin films and extract thermal ...
POWER CONTROL AND MANAGEMENT OF THE GRID CONTAINING LARGE-SCALE WIND POWER SYSTEMS
(2013)
The ever increasing demand for electricity has driven many countries toward the installation of new generation facilities. However, concerns such as environmental pollution and global warming issues, clean energy sources, ...
EEG/MEG Sparse Source Imaging and Its Application in Epilepsy
(2013-12-13)
This dissertation is a summary of my Ph.D. work on the development of sparse source imaging technologies based on electroencephalography (EEG) and magneto-encephalography (MEG) and their application to noninvasively ...
WIRELESS OPTICAL TRANSCEIVER DESIGN, LINK ANALISYS AND ALIGNMENT CONTROL FOR MOBILE COMMUNICATION
(2013)
Pointing, acquisition and tracking of a free-space optical node in a mobile network experiencing misalignment due to adverse factors including vibration, motion and atmospheric turbulence requires a different approach than ...
Channel detection on two-dimensional magnetic recording
(2013)
Two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) coupled with shingled-magnetic recording (SMR) is one of next generation techniques for increasing the hard disk drive (HDD) capacity up to 10 Tbit/in2 in order to meet the growing ...
Bayesian Approaches to Detect and Mitigate Ground Clutter mixed with Weather Signals
(2013)
Ground clutter is a long standing issue in radar meteorology, considering that it can bring significant bias to the estimations of weather moments, polarimetric parameters, rainfall rate, hydrometeor identification, etc. ...
