The implementation of a CDMA system on a FPGA-based software radio.
(2000)
This dissertation exammes two of the rlsing technologies in the world of wireless, cellular
communications - CDMA and the software radio. This thesis covers many of the issues related
to these two emerging field s of ...
Concatenated space-time codes in Rayleigh fading channels.
(2002)
The rapid growth of wireless subscribers and services as well as the increased use of internet
services, suggest that wireless internet access will increase rapidly over the next few years.
This will require the ...
A token based MAC protocol for wireless ad hoc networks.
(2003)
The emergence of portable terminals in work and living environments is accelerating the
progression of wireless networks. A wireless ad hoc network is a new network concept
where users establish peer-to-peer communication ...
Space-time multiuser detection of multi-carrier DS-CDMA systems.
(2001)
Personal wireless communications networks have flourished over the last decade as advances in
digital cellular technology have made them more accessible to the general public. Third
Generation Cellular Communication ...
Packet scheduling in satellite HSDPA networks.
(2010)
The continuous growth in wireless networks is not showing any sign of slowing down as new services, new technologies and new mobile users continue to emerge. Satellite networks are expected to complement the terrestrial ...
A MAC protocol for wireless networks with QoS guarantees.
(2002)
Mobile communications are becoming integrated into society at an explosive rate. While 2nd generation (2G) systems limit the user to basic services such as voice and low-bit rate data, 3G
networks are characterized by ...
Implementation of a WCDMA AAA receiver on an FPGA based software radio platform.
(2001)
WCDMA promises to achieve high-speed internet, high quality image transmission and
high-speed data services with larger system capacity. However, Multiple Access
Interference is one of the major causes of transmission ...
Development, implementation and quantification of an ad-hoc routing protocol for mobile handheld terminals.
(2003)
An ad-hoc network is a collection of mobile nodes (wireless communication devices) that
transmit data over systems that do not require any centralized control, such as that found in
cellular networks. This makes ad-hoc ...
Performance of turbo-coded DS-CDMA systems in fading and burst channels.
(2001)
Turbo codes are a class of forward error correction (FEC) codes that offer energy
efficiencies close to the limits predicted by information theory. The features of turbo
codes include parallel code concatenation, recursive ...
Granting privacy and authentication in mobile ad hoc networks.
(2012)
The topic of the research is granting privacy and authentication in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) that are under the authority of a certificate authority (CA) that is often not available. Privacy is implemented in the ...
