Energy-detection is appealing for IEEE 802.15.4a receivers as it allows to exploit the ranging capabilities and the multipath resistance of impulse-radio UWB at a reasonable complexity. IEEE 802.15.4a receivers operate with interference created by uncontro ...
We consider a transmission of a delay-sensitive data stream from a single source to a single destination. The reliability of this transmission may suffer from bursty packet losses - the predominant type of failures in today's Internet. An effective and wel ...
We consider the probe of astrophysical signals through radio interferometers with small field of view and baselines with non-negligible and constant component in the pointing direction. In this context, the visibilities measured essentially identify with a ...
Spectrum sensing is an essential enabling functionality for cognitive radio networks to detect spectrum holes and opportunistically use the under-utilized frequency bands without causing harmful interference to legacy networks. This paper introduces a nove ...
A deterministic dirty-paper coding strategy for communication over an arbitrarily varying channel with an interference signal known to the transmitter is investigated. The presence of a known interference signal at the transmitter is shown to provide some ...

This paper is aimed at studying the electromagnetic radiation pattern of a multipactor discharge occurring in a parallel-plate waveguide. The proposed method is based on the Fourier expansion of the multipactor current in terms of time-harmonic currents ra ...
This poster is a summary of recent work published in: Spread spectrum for imaging techniques in radio interferometry, Y. Wiaux, G. Puy, Y. Boursier, and P. Vandergheynst, Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc., 2009, Preprint arXiv:0907.0944v1. We consider the probe of ...
The efficiency of a photovoltaic device is limited by the portion of solar energy that can be captured. We discuss how to measure the optical properties of the various layers in solid-state dye-sensitized solar cells (SDSC). We use spectroscopic ellipsomet ...
Spectrum sensing is one of the enabling functionalities for cognitive radio (CR) systems to operate in the spectrum white space. To protect the primary incumbent users from interference, the CR is required to detect incumbent signals at very low signal-to- ...
As an enabling functionality of overlay cognitive radio networks, spectrum sensing needs to reliably detect licensed signal in the band of interest. To achieve reliable sensing, we propose a linear fusion scheme for distributed spectrum sensing to combine ...
