Modern navigation systems use multi-sensor-systems for location determination in combination with GPS or DGPS. Limitations in the availability of satellites due to shadowing and multi path effects in urban areas, magnetic disturbances, wheel slips and erro ...
We study a new image sensor that is reminiscent of traditional photographic film. Each pixel in the sensor has a binary response, giving only a one-bit quantized measurement of the local light intensity. To analyze its performance, we formulate the oversam ...
In this thesis, we focus on Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra-WideBand (UWB) ranging and positioning techniques under indoor propagation environments. IR-UWB, a new carrierless communication scheme using impulses, is a candidate technology for future communication, ...
During the last decade, ultra wideband (UWB) systems gained a large interest in the scientific world because of their suitability to realize among others communication systems with tremendous data rates and accurate indoor positioning and location systems. ...

In this paper, we design a multiuser two-way relay system using space division multiple access (SDMA) communications and devise an optimal scheduling method that maximizes the sum rate while ensuring fairness among users. To reduce the computational load a ...
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 ...
Abstract Smartphones collect a wealth of information about their users' environment and activities. This includes GPS (global positioning system) tracks and the MAC (media access control) addresses of devices around the user, and it can go as far as taking ...
In this work, we study a communication scheme in which nodes transmit sufficient statistics of their observations over non-orthogonal medium access channels for distributed estimation. This scheme unifies and generalizes several multiple access schemes suc ...

A navigation process is to start from a known (initial) position and to ensure a continued localisation of the user during the movement. Consider a pedestrian navigation system which contains a GPS receiver and a set of inertial sensors connected with the ...
Acoustic nodes, each containing an array of microphones, can track targets in x-y space from their received acoustic signals, if the node positions and orientations are known exactly. However, it is not always possible to deploy the nodes precisely, so a c ...
