Homogeneous Partitioning of the Surveillance Volume discusses the
implementation of the first of three sequentially complementary approaches for
increasing the probability of target detection within at least some of the cells of
the surveillance volume for a spatially nonGaussian or Gaussian “noise ...
At the macroscopic level of system layout, the most important issue is path loss. In the
older mobile radio systems that are limited by receiver noise, path loss determines SNR and
the maximum coverage area. In cellular systems, where the limiting factor is cochannel
interference, path loss determin ...
The ever-increasing demand for private and sensitive data transmission over wireless net-
works has made security a crucial concern in the current and future large-scale, dynamic,
and heterogeneous wireless communication systems. To address this challenge, computer
scientists and engineers have trie ...
This book is a result of the recent rapid advances in two related technologies: com-
munications and computers. Over the past few decades, communication systems
have increased in complexity to the point where system design and performance
analysis can no longer be conducted without a significant lev ...
The investigation of the propagation channel is becoming more and more important in mod-
ern wireless communication. The demand for spectral efficiency motivates exploitation of
all channels that can possibly be used for communications. Nowadays, a common trend for
designing physical layer algorithm ...
This paper presents a Hidden Markov Model (HMM)-based speech
enhancement method, aiming at reducing non-stationary noise from speech
signals. The system is based on the assumption that the speech and the noise
are additive and uncorrelated. Cepstral features are used to extract statistical
informati ...
In this thesis several asp ects of space-time pro cessing and equalization for wire-
less communications are treated. We discuss several di?erent metho ds of improv-
ing estimates of space-time channels, such as temp oral parametrization, spatial
parametrization, reduced rank channel estimation, b o ...
Part I provides a compact survey on classical stochastic geometry models. The basic models defined
in this part will be used and extended throughout the whole monograph, and in particular to SINR based
models. Note however that these classical stochastic models can be used in a variety of contexts w ...
A wireless communication network can be viewed as a collection of nodes, located in some domain, which
can in turn be transmitters or receivers (depending on the network considered, nodes may be mobile users,
base stations in a cellular network, access points of a WiFi mesh etc.). At a given time, s ...
Recent advances in wireless communication technologies have had a transforma-
tive impact on society and have directly contributed to several economic and social
aspects of daily life. Increasingly, the untethered exchange of information between
devices is becoming a prime requirement for further pr ...
