A Least Mean-Square Approach to Nonlinear Equalization of Digital Receivers
(2018-05-11)
With an increased demand for fully-digital arrays for radar and communications
systems by making use of low-cost components with relaxed linearity
requirements, nonlinear equalization (NLEQ) is needed to increase ...
A SIMPLE EM DIPOLE RADIATING ELEMENT FOR DUAL-POLARIZED PHASED ARRAY WEATHER RADARS
(2016-05-13)
The Dual Polarized radiating element is a critical component in the Multi-function Phased Array Radar (MPAR) System. This thesis studies a new type of dual polarized radiating element based on the Electro-Magnetic (EM) ...
The Bootstrap Dual Polarimetric Spectral Density Estimator
(2016-08)
Weather radar moments and polarimetric variables provide useful information about the characteristics and motion of hydrometeors.
However, the bulk information may be masked when the meteorological signal of interest is ...
DYNAMIC USER-CENTRIC CAPACITY MAXIMIZATION BY OPTIMIZING ANTENNA PARAMETERS
(2016)
Cellular network has become the primary means of voice as well as data communication. With sophisticated but affordable end user devices e.g. smartphones, tablet PCs etc. and ubiquity of mobile connectivity, users are able ...
Design of a Circularly Polarized Rectifying Antenna on a Flexible Substrate at X-Band
(2019-12-13)
This thesis lays out the design procedure for a left-hand circularly polarized, high-efficiency rectifying antenna on a flexible substrate for use at 10 GHz. The rectenna system is designed for space based power applications. ...
Selection and Validation of Biosensors for a Novel Healthcare Environment
(2016-05)
Flotation tanks provide a unique environment for reducing the deleterious effects of stress on the human mind and body. As a result, biosensors capable of collecting objective physiological data during float sessions are ...
PREDICTION OF EARLY STAGE LUNG CANCER PROGNOSIS AFTER SURGERY USING A NEW CAD-GENERATED IMAGING MARKER
(2018-05-11)
Due to cancer heterogeneity, identifying new clinical markers to more effectively predict prognosis of cancer patients plays an important role to improve efficacy of cancer treatment. Objective of this study is to develop ...
Structure-Independent Conformal Quasi-Isotropic Antennas for Small Unmanned Aircraft System Applications
(2017-12-15)
Communication systems for aircraft are often implemented through antennas that protrude from the airframe and contain radiation nulls - which have detrimental effects on the aerodynamics of the craft and its ability to ...
Effectiveness of Electronic Counter Measures (ECM) on Small Unmanned Aerial Systems (SUAS): Analysis and Preliminary Tests
(2018-05)
Small unmanned aerial systems (sUAS) have become more common and affordable for government, commercial, and private use. There are several counter sUAS products that employ electromagnetic counter measures to disrupt the ...
