By modifying the Williamson and Wallis-Whiteman arrays to apply to complex matrices, we propose two methods of construction or square, order-4n CO STBCs from square, order-n codes, which satisfy certain properties. Applying the proposed methods, we construct square, maximum rate, order-8 CO STBCs with no zeros, such that the transmitted symbols equally disperse through transmit antennas. Those codes, referred to as the improved square CO STBCs, have the advantages that the power is equally transmitted via each transmit antenna during every symbol time slot and that a lower peak-to-mean power ratio per each antenna is required to achieve the same bit error rates as for the conventional CO STBCs with zeros","PeriodicalId":161972,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2005-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115041115","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We introduce the Jini/sup TM/ profile for Bluetooth, which runs in three modes of operations, namely, surrogate, bridge, and client. We describe the implementation of a Jini/Bluetooth surrogate as well as the bridge which acts as a proxy and allows a multihop connection to a Jini network.

In this paper, the performance analyses of several 4/spl times/4 subarrays of the 16/spl times/16 measurement arrays are presented. The MIMO response of these channels was synthesised from the extracted MFCs. A comparison is then made between the capacity estimates from the directly measured and synthesised MIMO channels.

The nodes in this type of network are battery-powered and therefore must be extremely frugal with their energy budget. The networks usually have a large number of nodes whose deployment and topology is application dependent. Low-power optimization techniques developed for conventional ad hoc networks are not sufficient as they do not properly address particular features of embedded and sensor networks. As well as reducing overall energy consumption, it is also important to maximize the network lifetime, that is, maintain full network connectivity for as long as possible. The paper considers different multihop scenarios to compute the energy per bit, efficiency, and the energy consumed by individual nodes and by the whole network. The analysis uses a detailed model for the energy consumed by the radio at each node. Multihop topologies with equidistant and optimal node spacing are studied. Numerical computations illustrate the effects of packet routing. These results show that using a simple multihop message relay strategy is not always a good procedure to extend a network's lifetime. Depending on the radio hardware characteristics and on the topology, direct relay to a sink or a routing mechanism that bypasses intermediate nodes can sometimes be the recommended procedure.","PeriodicalId":161972,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-09-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130625990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results are based on the experimental test measurements made at the University of Oulu, Finland using simple high power UWB transmitter prototypes as interference sources. Preliminary results showed that, under the extreme conditions of this experiment, both IEEE802.11b and Bluetooth networks will slightly suffer from the existence of several high proximity UWB signals. In our study, several high power UWB transmitters that greatly exceed the FCC radiation regulations have been used, and the measurement settings presents the worst case scenario due to the very short distance between the interferers and the victim system. Effectively our study indicates the use of hundreds of FCC compatible UWB devices at a same space.","PeriodicalId":161972,"journal":{"name":"IEEE International Symposium on Personal, Indoor and Mobile Radio Communications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-09-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129226423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
