Potential Application of Machine Learning in Optical Communication Systems
(2017-07-07)
In this work, we will examine practically encoding information in the state of polarization using M- POLSK. We employ polarization-shift keying (POLSK) to generate an expected pattern of changing states of polarization ...
LARGE-SCALE DATA PROCESSING FOR DETECTING ACTIVITY ZONES IN MILAN
(2017-08)
Small cell networks are complements for existing networks to improve quality of service (QoS), capacity, and coverage. The primary purpose of this thesis is to mine mobile network data to provide an algorithm that mobile ...
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 ...
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 ...
