Automatic link establishment (ALE) is one of the important technologies in HF communication. One of the indicators to measure the performance of an ALE system is the linking time, which includes channel switching, spectrum sensing, and trying to call three periods. Asynchronous mode has been widely used for its simple operation. When establishing an link, the station sorts all the channels and selects...
Cognitive radio appears as a promising technology to allocate wireless spectrum between licensed and unlicensed users in an efficient way. When unlicensed users opportunistically utilize spectrum holes, prediction models that infer the availability of spectrum holes can help to improve the spectrum extraction rate and reduce the collision rate. In this paper, a spectrum occupancy prediction model...
Traditionally, page images undergo pre-processing before the later stages of document analysis are applied. One common pre-processing step is to calculate and correct for the presence of simple page skew through a compensating rotation. Such operations modify the original input image, however, and in doing so may discard or obscure useful information. In this paper, we examine the impact of page deskewing...
Cognitive radio appears as a promising technology to allocate wireless spectrum between licensed and unlicensed users in an efficient way. The availability of spectrum holes vastly affects the throughput and delay of unlicensed users. Predictive methods for inferring the availability of spectrum holes can help to improve spectrum extraction rate and reduce collision rate. In this paper, a spectrum...
In this paper, we address the writer identification problem for noisy handwritten documents written on a substrate of pre-printed ruling lines. Instead of attempting to remove rulings and to recover broken strokes, we incorporate rulings to help with the identification task through the use of new displacement features. Experiments involving 61 writers and 4,890 handwritten text lines show that our...
Ruling lines are commonly used to help people write neatly on paper. In document image analysis, however, they create challenges for handwriting recognition and writer identification. In this paper, we model ruling line detection as a multi-line linear regression problem and then derive a globally optimal solution giving the Least Square Error. We demonstrate the efficacy of the technique on both...
