We present an experiment-based characterization of passive suppression and active self-interference cancellation mechanisms in full-duplex wireless communication systems. In particular, we consider passive suppression due to antenna separation at the same ...
This thesis deals with signal-based methods that predict how listeners perceive speech quality in telecommunications. Such tools, called objective quality measures, are of great interest in the telecommunications industry to evaluate how new or deployed sy ...
W-BAN applications have been around since a long time, but have been experiencing a tremendous growth during the last decades. This results in the need of dedicated antennas, which are designed and optimized taking into account their lossy surroundings. De ...
This paper describes the simulation, design, realization, and experimental test of a tapered transmission line (TL) for adapting a broad-band impulse generator to a radiating antenna, for a frequency range of 50 MHz-1 GHz. Two different taper geometries ar ...
This paper explores the possibility of detecting the hidden presence of wireless eavesdroppers. Such eavesdroppers employ passive receivers that only listen and never transmit any signals making them very hard to detect. In this paper, we show that even pa ...
We present the concept of an acoustic rake receiver—a microphone beamformer that uses echoes to improve the noise and interference suppression. The rake idea is well-known in wireless communications; it involves constructively combining different multipath ...
An implantable device for intrafascicular stimulation and/or sensing of a peripheral nerve, including a blocking element adapted for wrapping a nerve, comprising an access point and an exit point, and an electrode adapted to traverse the blocking element v ...
Acoustic devices that break reciprocity, for instance acoustic isolators or circulators, may find exciting applications in a variety of fields, including imaging, acoustic communication systems, and noise control. Non-reciprocal acoustic propagation has ty ...
This Article Addresses the Design and optimization of a small-sized linear electrodynamic actuator, to be inserted below a computer key so as to provide a force feedback to the user. The importance given to the sense of feeling has been growing in differen ...
Hardware imperfections can significantly reduce the performance of full-duplex wireless systems by introducing non-idealities and random effects that make it challenging to fully suppress self-interference. Previous research has mostly focused on analysing ...
