Recently, cooperative communication has attracted a lot of attention for its potential to increase spatial diversity. However, limited attention has been paid to the physical laye...
— There is an ever increasing need for storing data in smaller and smaller form factors driven by the ubiquitous use and increased demands of consumer electronics. A new approach...
— The design of ultra-wideband (UWB) impulse radio receivers has to cope with complex signal propagation environments with dense multipath fading, which complicate channel estima...
In this work, multi-hop cooperative schemes for underwater sensor networks are studied and shown to be highly energy efficient. Also, the signal model for a multipath channel is d...
A new and efficient class of nonlinear receivers is introduced for digital communication systems. These "iterated-decision" receivers use optimized multipass algorithms t...
