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 ...

Measurement Scheduling for Soil Moisture Sensing: From Physical Models to Optimal Control

David Shuman, Ke Li, Aditya Mahajan

In this paper, we consider the problem of monitoring soil moisture evolution using a wireless network of in situ sensors. Continuously sampling moisture levels with these sensors incurs high-maintenance and energy consumption costs, which are particularly ...

Dynamic Ornament: The Design of Responsive Architectural Environments

Mark Meagher

This thesis study investigates the architectural potential of digital information, using case studies and prototypes to explore the integration of dynamic information in the architectural environment. Responsive architecture, a design field that has arisen ...

Game Theory in Communications

Vojislav Gajic

Multi-user communication theory typically studies the fundamental limits of communication systems, and considers communication schemes that approach or even achieve these limits. The functioning of many such schemes assumes that users always cooperate, eve ...

Distributed Successive Approximation Coding using Broadcast Advantage: the Two-Encoder Case

Martin Vetterli, Guillermo Barrenetxea Kobas, Zichong Chen

Traditional distributed source coding rarely considers the possible link between separate encoders. However, the broadcast nature of wireless communication in sensor networks provides a free gossip mechanism which can be used to simplify encoding/decoding ...

Mobility-centric design of collaborative transportation systems

Embedded sensors and actuators are revolutionizing the way we perceive and interact with the physical world. Current research on such Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) has focused mostly on distributed sensing and data gathering. The next step is to move from ...

On uncoordinated wireless ad-hoc networks

Alaeddine El Fawal

Emerging pervasive wireless networks, pocket switched networks, Internet of things, vehicular networks and even sensor networks present very challenging communication circumstances. They might involve up to several hundreds of wireless devices with mobilit ...

A Deterministic Approach to Wireless Network Error Correction

Suhas Diggavi

In this paper we consider communication between two special nodes ("source" and "destination") in a wireless relay network, which has malfunctioning or malicious nodes (inserting errors). We develop the model for wireless network communication in the prese ...

Fundamental limits and optimal operation in large wireless networks

Ayfer Özgür Aydin

Wireless adhoc networks consist of users that want to communicate with each other over a shared wireless medium. The users have transmitting and receiving capabilities but there is no additional infrastructure for assisting communication. This is in contra ...

Information-theoretic secrecy for wireless networks

Etienne Perron

The aim of information-theoretic secrecy is to ensure that an eavesdropper who listens to the wireless transmission of a message can only collect an arbitrarily small number of information bits about this message. In contrast to cryptography, there are no ...
