Abstract— Frame synchronization is classically treated in literature for equiprobable data symbols. In this case the optimum metric has been derived both in the case of periodica...
In this paper, we propose an accurate analytical model to analyze the performance of initial ranging requests in IEEE 802.16 networks. Two metrics, connection probability and aver...
In this paper, we develop simple models to study the performance of BitTorrent, a second generation peer-to-peer (P2P) application. We first present a simple fluid model and stu...
The use of Java for parallel programming on clusters according to the message-passing paradigm is an attractive choice. In this case, the overall application performance will larg...
Abstract--This paper examines the performance of decisionfeedback-based iterative channel estimation and multiuser detection in channel coded aperiodic direct sequence code divisio...
