As the number of units in underwater sensor arrays grow, low-cost localization becomes increasingly important to maintain network scalability. Methods using ambient ocean noise are promising solutions because they do not require external infrastructure, nor expensive on-board sensors. Here we extend past work in stationary array element localization from correlations of ambient noise to a mobile sensor...
A method for mode decomposition is presented using compressive sensing. Simulated data are used to demonstrate its pro and con compared with conventional methods using eigenvector decomposition. Mode cross-correlation and mode coherence time are studied using narrowband signals collected on a vertical line array during the SW06 experiment, that were transmitted from a moving source with different...
Cache-aided coded multicast leverages side information at wireless edge caches to efficiently serve multiple groupcast demands via common multicast transmissions, leading to load reductions that are proportional to the aggregate cache size. However, the increasingly unpredictable and personalized nature of the content that users consume challenges the efficiency of existing caching-based solutions...
In this article, we propose low complexity transmitter and receiver architectures for Faster Than Nyquist communications. Both architectures are based on circular convolutions rather than linear convolutions. These circular architectures allow us to consider a turbo-equalization scheme based on linear MMSE equalization. We can consider low-values for the time compression factor without increasing...
A Fractional Fourier Transform (FrFT) based waveform design for joint radar-communication systems (Co-Radar) that embeds data into chirp sub-carriers with different time-frequency rates has been recently presented. Simulations demonstrated the possibility to reach data rates as high as 3.660 Mb/s while maintaining good radar performance compared to a Linear Frequency Modulated (LFM) pulse that occupies...
Recently, electromagnetic interference in AM radio receivers associated with noise generated from the power control unit (DC-DC converters/inverters) and other power electronics devices, such as an electric power steering (EPS) control modules, in hybrid vehicles (HVs) has become a serious problem. In order to address this problem, most noise suppression methods use either noise filters (for noise...
The Data Over Cable Service Interface Specification (DOCSIS) provides internet access via cable TV networks. The latest version 3.1 replaces the Physical Layer of previous DOCSIS versions. With DOCSIS 3.1, broadband cable network operators want to accelerate their networks to gigabit-per-second speeds. Enhancements include an increased bandwidth per downstream channel of up to 192MHz, Orthogonal Frequency-Division...
In this paper, we consider the problem of sending a bivariate correlated Gaussian source through a two-user Gaussian orthogonal multiple-access channel (MAC), where each encoder observes a noisy version of one of the source components, and the receiver aims at reconstructing each source component. The estimation quality is measured by mean-squared error (MSE) distortion criterion. Different components...
BS (Base Station) cooperation schemes allow for an improved overall system's capacity and spectral efficiency. This is due to the possibility of MTs (Mobile Terminals) in adjacent cells sharing the same physical channel. The BSs send a quantized version of the received signals to a central unit that performs the separation of the signals associated to different MTs. In this paper we consider the uplink...
In this paper, an algorithm for accurate distance estimation of a vehicle to a road side unit (RSU) in urban multipath environments is presented. The algorithm is based on spatial filtering using a uniform circular array (UCA) antenna and a cross correlation based time delay detection. The time base for the cross correlation is built using Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) based positioning...
The contention-based (CB) transmission is a promising solution for small data packets transmission in 5G uplink. In this paper, a Non-Orthogonal Coded Access (NOCA) scheme, called ZC-NOCA, is proposed for CB transmission in 5G uplink. For ZC-NOCA, the codes generated by Zadoff-Chu (ZC) sequences is used to spread the data bit over the Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple (OFDM) symbols. Different...
Spatial consistency is identified as an important feature for fifth generation (5G) channel model. In this paper, a geometry stochastic approach for spatial consistency is presented under the framework of spatial channel model. The extended stochastic channel model (SCM) realizes large-scale parameters(LSPs) and small- scale parameters (SSPs) in a continuous and realistic manner as a function of position...
In cache-aided networks, due to the multicast nature of wireless signals, coded multicast delivery results in significant load reductions that are proportional to the aggregate cache size. State of the art caching schemes exploit exact content reuse across the network, which, due to the personalized nature of the content consumed by users, can lead to limited efficiency of the scheme. In this work,...
We present a method for the accurate prediction of BER in nonlinear systems, taking into account the temporal correlations of the nonlinear interference noise and incorporating the effect of an adaptive receiver.
Widely linear (WL) receivers can fulfill single antenna interference cancellation (SAIC) of one rectilinear (R) or quasi-rectilinear (QR) co-channel interference (CCI). The SAIC technology for QR signals has been shown to be less powerful than SAIC for R signals. To overcome this limitation, a SAIC/MAIC enhancement using three-inputs WL frequency-shift (FRESH) receiver has been introduced for QR signals...
In this paper we study the problem of estimating the unknown delay(s) in a system where we receive a linear combination of several delayed copies of a known transmitted waveform. This problem arises in many applications such as timing-based localization or wireless synchronization. Since accurate delay estimation requires wideband signals, traditional systems need high-speed AD converters which poses...
Due to the low level of the received power and to the known signal structure, Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) civil signals might be vulnerable to different sources of interference. Among them, the spoofing attacks are considered ones of the most deceptive, since their scope is controlling the output of the victim receiver. This paper presents a set of live experiments that validate the...
We propose a method for channel estimation in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems with an array of receiving elements. In contrast to traditional methods, which target the equivalent sample-spaced channel taps, this method targets the physical propagation paths whose delays are not restricted to the sample-spaced grid. The path delays are estimated jointly with the path gains...
Pseudo-Noise (PN) code synchronization is of crucial for receiver in direct sequence spread spectrum (DSSS) communication. What's more, acquisition and tracking are two important parts of the synchronization process. To meet the need of a lower power consumption and higher performance, there is a trend to design the digital match filter by using the field programmable gate array (FPGA) or the application...
The M-sequence has property of good self-correlative, it has pseudo random property and it is easy to be generated and copied. It mainly be applied to spread spectrum and encryption. Traditional information synchronize way based m-sequence realize information synchronize of transmitter and receiver by periodicity of spread spectrum code. When transmitter sending information in every rate, there will...
