Investigation of a Generalized Frequency Domain Method for Modeling Time-Varying Loads on Antennas
(2019-12-13)
Within traditional antenna design, the behavior of the antenna can be dictated by its physical dimensions and their proportions to a wavelength. Traditional electrically small antennas in particular face many limitations ...
Intelligent Power Aware Algorithms for Traffic Sensors
(2018-07)
The Internet of Things (IoT) is reshaping our world. Soon our world will be based on smart technologies. According to IHS Markit forecasts, the number of connected devices will grow from 15.4 billion in 2015 to 30.7 billion ...
A Comparison of Machine Learning Gesture Recognition Techniques for Medication Adherence
(2020-04-27)
Every year, many poor health outcomes are the result of patients missing their medication, as prescribed by their healthcare providers. Guidance and reminders to these patients would result in better health outcomes and ...
The Intersection of Radar and Communications: A Study on Spectrum Management for Addressing RF Interference
(2023-05-12)
The radio frequency (RF) spectrum is a fruitful yet competitive frontier that enables technologies like 5G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, long-range telescopes, microwave ovens, radar, and more. With finite supply and increasing ...
SON: PREDICTING THE NATURE OF SERVICE DISRUPTIONS IN CELLULAR NETWORKS
(2016-12)
An important aspect of communication is involved in its cellular network. To meet the demands, communication requires the next generation cellular network, i.e., self organizing networks (SON). In order to implement a ...
Automated Calibration of an Anisotropic Materials Characterization Instrument
(2019-08-01)
The increasingly widespread development and use of inhomogeneous composites and artificial dielectrics/diamagnetics has necessitated the development of methods to characterize these materials over a range of frequencies ...
Generation of Synthetic Antenna Apertures In Swarm Unmanned Aerial Systems Using Tight-Coupling
(2022-05-13)
Relative to their various land and air-based counterparts, swarm unmanned aerial system (SUAS) platforms, being comprised of many separate airborne bodies, or elements, possess a number of unique and advantageous ...
Frequency-agile filtering antennas for S-band and X-band applications
(2023-05-12)
Multi-functional, highly flexible, and tightly integrated Radio-Frequency Front-Ends (RFFEs) are at the forefront of the current developments to improve the performance of next-generation wireless RF systems. In the past ...
Multiclass Bone Segmentation of PET/CT Scans for Automatic SUV Extraction
(2021-12-17)
In this thesis I present an automated framework for segmentation of bone
structures from dual modality PET/CT scans and further extraction of SUV
measurements. The first stage of this framework consists of a variant of ...
Energy Efficient Machine Learning-Based Classification of ECG Heartbeat Types
(2018-12-05)
To meet the accuracy, latency and energy efficiency requirements during real-time collection and analysis of health data, a distributed edge computing environment is the answer, combined with 5G speeds and modern computing ...
