There have recently been serious social issues involved in multimedia signal processing such as digital rights management, secure authentication, malicious attacks, and tampering with digital audio/speech signals. Reversible watermarking is a technique that enables these signals to be authenticated and then restored to their original signals by removing watermarks from them. We previously proposed...
Class D amplifiers are becoming the most feasible solution for embedded audio application. However, distortions due to the non-linear nature of switching stage are the main drawback for this amplifier topology. This paper discusses the design and implementation of high fidelity audio class D using sliding mode control scheme. This design method proves to be a cost effective solution for industrial...
In the paper we describe a method to extract the topography of an impressed current for our bounded electrical impedance tomography (bEIT) studies. The frequency of the impressed current is low (up to a few hundred Hz), and is buried in background EEG and other noise. For the development of the extraction method, special consideration is given to maximize the signal-to-noise ratio. The standard lock-in...
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is the modulation scheme of choice for digital video broadcasting-handheld (DVB-H), which is required to operate under high mobility conditions resulting in significant Inter-carrier Interference (ICI). To mitigate ICI, several cancellation schemes have been proposed but they require reliable channel information at the receiver which is quite challenging...
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is the modulation scheme of choice for digital video broadcasting-handheld (DVB-H) which is required to operate under high mobility conditions resulting in significant Inter-Carrier Interference (ICI). Under these conditions, the conventional one-tap per subcarrier channel estimation and equalization is suboptimal since it does not account for ICI...
This paper addresses adaptive channel estimation for time-varying mobile wireless channels with nonstationary statistics. We presents a reduced complexity adaptive channel estimator based on a set membership filtering approach known as the Optimal Bounding Ellipsoid (OBE) algorithm. To exploit time and frequency domain correlation properties of the channel in an efficient low-complexity way, we allow...
This paper explores the attributes, layering models and objective functions in cross layer designs for mobile ad hoc wireless networks by taking all the statistical characteristics and constraints from the physical (PHY) layer, media access control (MAC) layer and network (NET) layer into consideration. This paper reviews the entire network optimization across all the PHY/MAC/NET layers. At the PHY...
Ultra-wideband (UWB) systems possess several distinct features such as very high data rate, large multipath or frequency diversity and improved ranging precision while requiring low-power low-complexity transceivers. Among the different modulation schemes, differential PSK is an attractive option because it does not require channel estimation, and hence reduces implementation complexity. This paper...
While two-dimensional (2-D) orthogonal variable spreading factor (OVSF) codes were proposed for multicarrier direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (MC/DS-CDMA) systems in order to eliminate multiple-access interference, the number of orthogonal sequences (or code cardinality) was restricted by the number of carrier frequencies. Non-orthogonal 2-D frequency-time-spreading (FTS) codes were then...
