We show that, for certain systems, OQAM can provide simultaneously orthogonality and phase linearity properties that cannot be reached by conventional QAM schemes. Furthermore, we get improvements with respect to the power ratio (PR).","PeriodicalId":448094,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Wireless Communications & Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127553204","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}

Adaptive block thresholding is introduced by G. Yu [1] to eliminate the musical noise artifacts, but the performance for unvoiced speech is not satisfactory. To solve this problem, a voiced/unvoiced decision is applied and a small block size is set for unvoiced speech. Furthermore, the thresholding is adjusted considering both the intrascale and interscale dependencies of wavelet coefficients. The experimental results show that the improved method can obtain better denoising performance than the method proposed by G.

A potential solution is offered by the high altitude platforms (HAPs), which can utilize the best character and tradeoff of both satellite and terrestrial networks. Since the performance of the HAPs depends on the structure of network, how to deploy the nodes of airships for HAPs is increasingly important. In this paper, an optimal model of deployment of airships for HAPs is constructed and solved based on genetic algorithm. First, a heterogeneous system including terrestrial layer, HAP layer and GEO layer is given. Then, an optimal model with objective function of maximum entropy and minimum delay is established to optimize the deployment of airships for HAPs. Finally, a modified genetic algorithm (GA) is employed to optimize the objective function and get the optimal solution to the model. Simulation results show that the established objective function and the solution based on GA can reach the goal of on-demand deployment of airship for HAPs.","PeriodicalId":448094,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Wireless Communications & Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124462559","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}

Address allocation information is maintained on the network border nodes, called addressing agents (AAs), which are locally identified by geographic routing protocol GFG [2]. When a node joins the network, it acquires an address from a neighboring AA (if any exists) by local communication or from the head AA (a geographic extreme AA) by GFG-based multi-hop communication. Geographic Hash Table (GHT) [19] is adopted for duplicate address detection. Each address is hashed to a unique location in the network field, and the associated assignment information is stored along the face perimeter enclosing that location (in the planar graph used). When a node receives an address assignment, it consults with the perimeter nodes around the hash location of the assigned address about any conflict. AAs detect network partition and merger locally according to neighborhood change and trigger AA re-selection and network re-configuration (if necessary). We evaluate LaConf through simulation using different planar graphs. We also propose to apply connected dominating set (CDS) [3] concept to improve the performance.","PeriodicalId":448094,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Wireless Communications & Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122696420","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}

EOG is an obtrusive, inexpensive and non-invasive means of recording eye ball movements. The source for EOG signal is cornea-retinal potential (CRP) and is generated due to the movements of eye balls within the conductive environment of the skull. While recording the EOG signal, it will be contaminated by electromyography (EMG) signal. As the EOG is a non stationary signal, the multi resolution analysis using wavelet decomposition offers the best solution to denoise the EOG signal. In this paper, the author proposed a new wavelet based method to detect eye ball moments from signal conditioned EOG. Comparative wavelet analysis is performed by considering different statistical measures. Test results reveal that the Symlet based method provides better efficacy in eliminating noise from EOG signals.","PeriodicalId":448094,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Wireless Communications & Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130398288","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 estimator is implemented with an adjacent pattern power ratio algorithm. For a single source signal, the received signal powers are measured while the antenna switches over a set of measured directive beam patterns. The pattern that exhibits the maximum received signal power is chosen. Then, the ratio between the pattern adjacent to the chosen pattern and the chosen pattern, is used to find the DoA by using a lookup table or by performing a linear regression approximation. Compared with conventional DoA estimators with switched beam antenna, the proposed algorithm allows DoA estimation with low computational cost, without sacrificing much the estimation precision. Computer simulations and experiments in an anechoic chamber are carried out to verify the proposed algorithm with a switched beam antenna: the electronically steerable parasitic array radiator (ESPAR) antenna.","PeriodicalId":448094,"journal":{"name":"2010 International Conference on Wireless Communications & Signal Processing (WCSP)","volume":"339 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2010-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134149146","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}

Moreover, according to the receive power of ACK frames, WP-LWDF (Weighted Power-LWDF) algorithm is proposed using a weighted differentiated-service function based on DS-LWDF algorithm. The simulation results in QualNet show that both DS-LWDF algorithm and WP-LWDF algorithm guarantee the throughput and fairness among NRT services while markedly reduce the delay of RT services.
