Information Theoretic Operating Regimes of Large Wireless Networks

Olivier Lévêque, Ayfer Özgür Aydin

In analyzing the point-to-point wireless channel, insights about two qualitatively different operating regimes --bandwidth- and power-limited-- have proven indispensable in the design of good communication schemes. In this paper, we propose a new scaling l ...

In the framework of mobile augmented reality, a video stream is sent to the user with the help of a wireless communication link. To guarantee an efficient transmission, the video stream rate is controlled by adapting the encoding parameters such as to foll ...

On Cooperative Wireless Network Secrecy

Emre Telatar, Suhas Diggavi, Etienne Perron

Given that wireless communication occurs in a shared and inherently broadcast medium, the transmissions are vulnerable to undesired eavesdropping. This occurs even when a point-to-point communication is sought, and hence a fundamental question is whether w ...

Efficient MAC in cognitive radio systems: A game-theoretic approach

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Mark Felegyhazi, Mario Cagalj

In this paper, we study the problem of efficient medium access control (MAC) among cognitive radio devices that are equipped with multiple radios and thus are capable of transmitting simultaneously at different frequencies (channels). We assume that radios ...

Distributed moving horizon estimation for sensor networks

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Marcello Farina

This paper focuses on distributed state estimation using a sensor network for monitoring a linear system. In order to account for physical constraints on process states and inputs, we propose a moving horizon approach where each sensor has to solve a quadr ...

On Cooperative Wireless Network Secrecy

Emre Telatar, Suhas Diggavi, Etienne Perron

2008

In the absence of complexity and delay constraints, the quality of a noisy communication channel can be characterized by a single number, called its capacity and usually measured in bits. Shannon [1] showed that this number is universal in the sense that v ...

Rate-Constrained Beamforming for Collaborating Hearing Aids

Martin Vetterli, Olivier Roy

Hearing aids are audio capture devices which aim at providing the hearing impaired with better audibility. Most of the state-of-the-art systems involve sensing devices that work independently. However, the availability of a wireless communication link betw ...

Collaborating Hearing Aids

Martin Vetterli, Olivier Roy

Hearing aids are electronic, battery-operated sensing devices which aim at compensating various kinds of hearing impairments by means of appropriate signal processing. Most of today's hearing aid systems consist of two appliances working independently of e ...

Asymptotic properties of wireless multi-hop networks

Olivier Dousse

In this dissertation, we consider wireless multi-hop networks, where the nodes are randomly placed. We are particularly interested in their asymptotic properties when the number of nodes tends to infinity. We use percolation theory as our main tool of anal ...
