We consider the problem of target localization by a
network of passive sensors. When an unknown target emits an
acoustic or a radio signal, its position can be localized with multiple
sensors using the time difference of arrival (TDOA) information.
In this paper, we consider the maximu ...
Reconstruction- and example-based super-resolution
(SR) methods are promising for restoring a high-resolution
(HR) image from low-resolution (LR) image(s). Under large
magnification, reconstruction-based methods usually fail
to hallucinate visual details while example-based methods
sometimes introdu ...
In this paper we present a classifier called bi-density twin support vector machines (BDTWSVMs) for data classification. In the training stage, BDTWSVMs first compute the relative density degrees for all training points using the intra-class graph whose weights are determined by a local sc ...
Smart City Networks: Through the Internet of Things is composed of research
results, analyses, and ideas, which focus on a diversity of interconnected factors
relating with urbanization, its “smartness,” and overarching “internet of things
(IoT).” The latter refers to interconnected objects and ...
Regardless of the branch of science or engineering, theoreticians have always
been enamored with the notion of expressing their results in the form of
closed-form expressions. Quite often, the elegance of the closed-form solution
is overshadowed by the complexity of its form and the difficulty in ev ...

The recent developments in full duplex (FD) commu-
nication promise doubling the capacity of cellular networks using
self interference cancellation (SIC) techniques. FD small cells
with device-to-device (D2D) communication links could achieve
the expected capacity of the future cellular networks (5G ...
In this paper we revisit hybrid analog-digital precoding systems with emphasis on their modelling
and radio-frequency (RF) losses, to realistically evaluate their benefits in 5G system implementations.
For this, we decompose the analog beamforming networks (ABFN) as a bank of commonly used RF
compon ...
With the rapid expansion of wireless consumer products,there has been a con-
siderable increase in the need for radio-frequency (RF) planning, link plan-
ning, and propagation modeling.A network designer with no RF background
may find himself/herself designing a wireless network. A wide array of RF

When we started thinking about writing the first edition of this book a few years ago, we had been
working together for more than five years on the borderline between propagation and signal processing.
Therefore, it is not surprising that this book deals with propagation models and design tools for ...
