Abstract:
Oral communication has constituted as a necessary aspect of how people interact with one another, but there are always situations where this form of communication can create distractions, irritation, or even danger. Take for example, a student in a laboratory who needs to communicate effectively with a lab partner without creating a distraction to those trying to work around said student or a soldier on a battlefield who needs to relay information effectively to his or her comrades without revealing his or her position to the enemy. It becomes apparent that people need a more exclusive form of

Abstract:
A Cooperative Cognitive Radio (CCR) network, which integrates a conventional cooperative system and cognitive radios (CRs) into a holistic system, is a promising paradigm for the next generation mobile communication systems. The spectral efficiency, power efficiency, bandwidth reduction and system complexity in CCR networks are the fundamental parameters of our system design and optimization. In this thesis, we focus our attention on opportunistically exploiting the underutilized spectrum band in the CR network with the aid of cooperative protocols. Furthermore, we invoke channel coding scheme

Many questions of interest in various fields ranging from machine learning to computational biology and finance require the solution of an optimization problem.

First, the problem complexity pushes today's processors to their limits and the need for distributed algorithms arises quite naturally.

Signal decomposition finds its applications in a wide range of areas. The problem of basis selection for signal decomposition consists of determining a small, possibly smallest, subset of vectors chosen from a large redundant set of vectors to match the given data. However, it is shown that finding the sparsest solution to linear systems is a nondeterministic polynomial time (NP) hard problem and requires combinatorial search. For a simpler solution, greedy heuristic algorithms, namely matching pursuit (MP) algorithms are proposed. These algorithms require sequential selection of basis vectors

Abstract:
In evaluating the BER for direct sequence spread spectrum multiple-access communication systems, it is very difficult to obtain a closed form expression for the output of these systems. Therefore one usually resort to simulation techniques such as the Monte Carlo method to evaluate the BER. The BER is usually small for these systems, hence an excessive amount of time and computations is required to adequately estimate the BER. One way to circumvent this problem is to utilize importance sampling method, which will give a good estimate for the BER with relatively small number of simulation runs.

Abstract:
The objective of this thesis is to determine and analyze the characteristics of ultra wideband antennas for personal communication systems. For this purpose a diamond dipole antenna, an ultra wideband antenna designed by Time Domain Corp, is studied and various parameters, like Sil and the VSWR of the antenna are calculated. These parameters are determined by simulating the antenna using the XFDTD software and the MultiStrip program. The results thus obtained are validated by measurements on the network analyzer using the antenna model. A bowtie antenna with the same dimensions as the diamond

Abstract:
High-speed wireless optical communication links have become more popular for personal mobile applications. This is a consequence of the increasing demand from the personal information service boom. Compared to the radio frequency domain, optical wireless communication offers much higher speeds and bit rates per unit power consumption. As stated by the official infrared standard IrDA optical communication enjoys much lower power consumption than Bluetooth, with an inherent security feature while in Line of Sight (LOS) applications. There are also drawbacks such as the infrared radiation cannot

Abstract:
Wireless multi-user communication systems that operate in a low signal to interference noise ratio (SINR) region are studied in this thesis. This thesis examines a class of wireless communication systems that employs an adaptive receiver for multi-user symbol detection that operates in a low SINR (< 5 dB) region. Since the knowledge of channel-parameter estimates is unavailable at the receiver, a pilot (training) sequence is applied in the communication system, to learn the channel state information (CSI) at the receiver. In studying the classical view of a DFE, the mean square error (MSE) beh

Abstract:
<p> High-speed photodiodes have diverse applications in wireless and fiber communications. They can be used as output stages for antenna systems as well as receivers for fiber optic networks. Silicon is an attractive substrate material for photonic components for a number of reasons. Low cost manufacturing in CMOS fabrication facilities, low material loss at telecommunications wavelengths, and relatively simple co-packaging with electronics are all driving interest in silicon photonic devices. Since silicon does not absorb light at telecommunications wavelengths, photodetector fabrication requ
