Abstract:

We investigate spectral-efficient design and develop novel schemes to improve spectral efficiency of the modern wireless communications networks. Nowadays, more and more spectrum resources are required to support various high-data-rate applications while spectrum resources are limited. Moreover, static allocation and exclusive access in current spectrum assignment policy caused a lot of licensed spectrum bands to be underutilized. To deal with the problem, cognitive radio (CR) has been developed, which allows unlicensed/secondary users to transmit with licensed/primary users as long as the for

Abstract:

Oggigiorno, le comunicazioni wireless sono coinvolte in molte applicazioni e gli obiettivi di sicurezza e affidabilità sono sempre più stringenti. Perciò, in questa tesi vengono proposte nuove soluzioni basate su schemi di codifica moderni in grado di conseguire prestazioni sempre più soddisfancenti. Adottiamo codici Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) e codici polari. Per la versatilità dei codici LDPC, li utilizziamo sia per scopi di affidabilità che di sicurezza.

Abstract:

Due to the increasing demand for new wireless services and applications, the high level of integration and the coexistence of multi-standard (MS) or multi-band operations into a single device are becoming defining trends in designing microwave filters. This has driven considerable technological advances in reconfigurable/tunable and miniaturized filters. More specifically, reconfigurable/tunable filters that tune to different frequency bands instead of classical filter banks have great potential to significantly reduce the system size and complexity; while reducing the filter size becomes esse

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the historical trajectory of colonial mentality and the genealogy of cultural modernity and Americanization in South Korea by recontextualizing popular music as a narrative of collective memories and mass trauma. By mapping out two continual colonial histories, those represented by the periods of the Japanese Empire and of the American military government, I develop a narrative of Korean popular music that echoes this submission experienced by Koreans, a movement empowered by modern western technology such as the gramophone, radio and phonograph records as well as by

Abstract:

Drawing on work in communications, media studies, and history, I argue that the historiographical methods of rhetoric and composition need to move beyond written discourse to consider the use of visual historical representations of the past. To explicate my argument, I analyze multiple examples of local and national television news coverage of the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, and the recent fighting in Kosovo. Based upon these examples, I argue that the television news media work within a dysfunctional, narrative-driven genre that is entirely inadequate in its attempts to analyze current world e

Abstract:

The primary contention of this study is that there are ways to orient architecture other than technological concerns. By studying the nature of architectural machines and their changes through history, their reduction to instrumental and aesthetic concerns is shown to be problematic. These aspects have dominated architectural thinking and making since modernity; however, this history also shows the limits and possibilities of these technological concerns. But modernism has not been homogeneous. During this period, the literary and theatrical works of Alfred Jarry and his science of pataphysics

The web browser has become one of the most recognizable software applications on consumer desktops. Yet its utilization and capabilities are often misunderstood. Recent innovations in the web have evolved the Internet into a network of sophisticated applications that defy historical uses of the “browser”; a term that itself has become somewhat of a misnomer. This research studies the evolving set of user expectations for the browser as an application platform and challenges certain anachronistic features, specifically the “back” button, that are unnecessary and confusing given the new environm

Abstract:

This research briefly introduces the roles of art museums and presents selected digital technology implementation challenges and benefits in art museums in the Gauteng Province. An art museum is a building or space for the exhibition of work of art, usually visual art. Art museums collect objects of art and other historic artefacts that are documented and exhibited for different purposes, such as aesthetic value, social, historic cultural and educational, significance and research values that are traceable to a specific society or group of individuals. In South Africa, particularly in the

Abstract:

NFC is a technology that allows close-range communication between mobile devices. Unfortunately, not all modern smartphones have the required API’s or hardware to utilize it. This thesis seeks therefore to develop a viable alternative to NFC for close range communication (less than 10 cm) between mobile smart phones. The goal is to evaluate the feasibility of using a novel scheme that utilizes near ultrasonic frequencies for close range communication for both Android and iOS.An iPhone and an Android device were used to test our proposed scheme. Range test were preformed on a quiet and noisy en

Abstract:

The Power Amplifier (PA) is a critical component in any mobile communications system with performance that is very sensitive to RF envelope dynamics. Achieving the required linearity demanded by evolving communications systems invariably involves increasing PA complexity at the cost of reducing PA efficiency the consequences of which are severe and include for example reduced operational time for portable communications devices and perhaps less obviously the significant running, capital and thermal management costs associated with mobile communication system base-stations. The Doherty PA is on

Abstract:

Modern wireless communication systems use spectrally efficient modulation schemes to reach high data rate transmission. These schemes are generally involved with signals with high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). Moreover, the development of next generation wireless communication systems requires the power amplifiers to operate over a wide frequency band or multiple frequency bands to support different applications. These wide-band and multi-band solutions will lead to reductions in both the size and cost of the whole system. This dissertation presents several advanced power amplifier solut

Abstract:

Modern communication standards demand wideband solutions, with increasing channel bandwidths. At the same time, massive MIMO is quickly approaching, asking for low-cost and low-power architectures. This thesis is focused on the design of RF blocks, suitable for state-of-the-art applications. The work is divided in two parts. In the first one an innovative transmitter architecture based on a current-mode passive mixer topology with a closed-loop RF amplier is presented. The second part deals with the analysis and design of a broadband, inductorless noise-cancelling low-noise amplifier. Measurem

Abstract:

With the dynamic changes in technological advancements, wireless communicationtechnologies has made a tremendous progress from simple to complex systems that are able tocommunicate across multiple networks platform. As these systems continue to prove theirproficiency and benefits, it is strongly asserted that wireless technologies will continue to play aneven more critical and vital role compared to wired connections in the future. The most relevant question now regarding the future of wireless technologies is whether it going todominate the wireline transmission or be a complementary to wirel
