UWB communication systems are designed to intent to low power, low cost, and low complexity devices. However, costly high-speed analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) is required to convert RF/IF signals to digital form for subsequent baseband processing in UWB system. By exploiting sparse property of UWB signal, using compressive sensing (CS) to reduce the sampling rate is a perspective approach. In this paper, we propose a UWB communications system using compressive sensing combined with time-hopping (TH) pulse position modulation (PPM) and pulse amplitude modulation (PAM), called CS-TH-UWB. This system is designed aims to reduce the sampling rate of the origin UWB system. CS technique possesses capability to implement under Nyquist sampling rate at transmitter side. At the receiver side, the under Nyquist rate samples are reconstructed with an acceptable loss. The simulation of this system is carried out to evaluate the BER of CS-TH-UWB. The results show that at low compression ratio of sampling rate, the different in BER performance is negligible. The higher compression ratio is the more degradation of BER performance.","PeriodicalId":221905,"journal":{"name":"The 2011 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC 2011)","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133405108","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}

Sleep is classified in two major states: non-rapid-eye-movement (non-REM) sleep and REM sleep. Non-REM sleep comprises stages N1, N2 and N3. We develop a tool for automatic scoring the stages of sleep following the rules of 2007 AASM (American Academy of Sleep Medicine). The study propose the algorithm to classify based on some different characteristics of each stage, due to using a device of polysomnography (PSG) in order to collect the signals of Electroencephalography (EEG), Electro-oculography (EOG) and Electromyography (EMG). Methods of analysis are Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), Candidate of REM (CREM) and Digital Signal Filters (High pass, Low pass, Notch Filter). PSG signals were recorded continuously overnight in 5 healthy volunteer students (19 – 25 years old, 4 males and 1 female). PSG data are analyzed in 30 second epochs (data windows) in offline mode.

We derive analytical expressions for the probability density functions (PDFs) of the angle-of-departure (AOD) and the angle-of-arrival (AOA). We also investigate the Doppler power spectral density (PSD) and the autocorrelation function (ACF) of the proposed model, assuming that the mobile transmitter (MT) and the mobile receiver (MR) are moving, while the surrounding scatterers are fixed. To validate the reference channel model, its Doppler parameters are compared to those of a real-world measured channel for urban and rural areas. The numerical results show a good fitting of the theoretical results to the computer simulations. The proposed geometry-based channel model allows to study the effects of the street scatterers on the performance of C2C communication systems.","PeriodicalId":221905,"journal":{"name":"The 2011 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC 2011)","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124463976","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}

The model is based on curve evolution, local statistical function and level set method. The energy function for the proposed model consists of two components: global component and local component. By introducing the local term, the images with intensity inhomogeneities can be efficiently segmented. Moreover, a smoothness regularization is derived from a Gaussian filtering term. This allows avoiding re-initialization while ensuring the smoothness of the level set function. The addition of the global term makes the model more flexible to the location of initial contour. Experimental results show that our method is less sensitive to the location of initial contour and demonstrate the performance of our model.","PeriodicalId":221905,"journal":{"name":"The 2011 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC 2011)","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-09-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125124015","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}
