Rapid growth of wireless communication services in recent decades has created
a huge demand of radio spectrum. Spectrum scarcity and utilization inefficiency
limit the development of wireless networks. Cognitive radio is a promising tech-
nology that allows secondary users to reuse the underutilized ...
Since the advent of optical communications, a great technological effort has
been devoted to the exploitation of the huge bandwidth of optical fibers. Start-
ing from a few Mb/s single channel systems, a fast and constant technological
development has led to the actual 10 Gb/s per channel dense wave ...
Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology enables high data-rate short-range communica-
tion, in excess of hundredmegabit-per-secondsand up to multi-gigabit-per-seconds,
over a wide spectrum of frequencies, while keeping power consumption at low lev-
els. This low power operation results in a less-interfering ...
Digital radios have undergone an astonishing evolution in the last century. Born as a set of simple and
power-hungry electrical and electromechanical devices for low data rate transmission of telegraph data
in the Marconi age, they have transformed, thanks to substantial advances in electronic techn ...
With the proliferation of cloud computing and Internet online services, more and
more data and computation are migrated to geographical distributed Internet data
centers (IDCs), which can provide reliability, management, and cost benefits.
However, IDC operators encounter several major problems in I ...
Modern power systems involve large amount of investment. An electric power
system comprises of generation, transmission, and distribution of electric energy.
Growth of power systems has led to very complex networks extended across large
areas. In such situations, the proper functioning of a modern p ...
Radio frequency identification (RFID) is a type of automatic identification systems
which has gained popularity in recent years for being fast and reliable in keeping
track of the individual objects. In RFID systems, contactless object identification
is achieved using radio signals without the need ...
Control systems are becoming more important every day. At the beginning, the in-
dustry used sequential controls for solving a lot of industrial applications in control
systems, and then the linear systems gave us a huge increase in applying automatic
linear control on industrial application. One of ...
Although state of the art in many typical machine learning tasks, deep learning
