Communication has been one of the deepest needs of the human race throughout recorded
history. It is essential to forming social unions, to educating the young, and to expressing a
myriad of emotions and needs. Good communication is central to a civilized society.
The various communication disciplin ...
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 ...
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 ...
Smart antennas involve processing of signals induced on an array of sensors such as
antennas, microphones, and hydrophones. They have applications in the areas of radar,
sonar, medical imaging, and communications.
Software Radio (SR) is one of the most important emerging technologies for the
future of wireless communication services. By moving radio functionality into
software, it promises to give flexible radio systems that are multi-service, multi-
standard, multi-band, reconfigurable and reprogrammable by ...
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 ...
T
his book covers basic communications theory and practical imple-
mentation of transmitters and receivers. In so doing, I focus on dig-
ital modulation, demodulation methods, probabilities, detection of
digital signals, and spread spectrum system design and analysis. This book
was written for those ...
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 ...
In this book we focus on the basic signal processing that underlies current and
future ultra wideband systems. By looking at signal processing in this way we
hope this text will be useful even as UWB applications mature and change or
regulations regarding ultra wideband systems are modified. The cur ...
An acronym for Multiple-In, Multiple-Out, MIMO communication sends the same data as several signals
simultaneously through multiple antennas, while still utilizing a single radio channel. This is a form of
antenna diversity, which uses multiple antennas to improve signal quality and strength of an R ...
