Maximum kurtosis beamforming with the generalized sidelobe canceller

Philip Neil Garner, John David Scott Dines, Weifeng Li

This paper presents an adaptive beamforming application based on the capture of far-field speech data from a real single speaker in a real meeting room. After the position of a speaker is estimated by a speaker tracking system, we construct a subband-domai ...

Adversarial interference models for multiantenna cooperative systems

Michael Christoph Gastpar

According to the cognitive radio paradigm, a terminal or subsystem will opportunistically select a frequency band for data transmission. Because the spectrum is shared, a cognitive system may face interference that cannot be given a statistical description ...

Adaptive Beamforming with a Maximum Negentropy Criterion

Philip Neil Garner, Weifeng Li

\begin{abstract} In this paper, we address an adaptive beamforming application in realistic acoustic conditions. After the position of a speaker is estimated by a speaker tracking system, we construct a subband-domain beamformer in \emph{generalized sidelo ...

Adaptive Beamforming with a Maximum Negentropy Criterion

Philip Neil Garner, Weifeng Li

In this paper, we address an adaptive beamforming application in realistic acoustic conditions. After the position of a speaker is estimated by a speaker tracking system, we construct a subband-domain beamformer in generalized sidelobe canceller (GSC) conf ...

Filter Bank Design based on Minimization of Individual Aliasing Terms for Minimum Mutual Information Subband Adaptive Beamforming

Philip Neil Garner, Weifeng Li

This paper presents new filter bank design methods for sub- band adaptive beamforming. In this work, we design analysis and synthesis prototypes for modulated filter banks so as to minimize each aliasing term individually. We then drive the total response ...

Filter Bank Design for Subband Adaptive Beamforming and Application to Speech Recognition

Philip Neil Garner, Weifeng Li

\begin{abstract} We present a new filter bank design method for subband adaptive beamforming. Filter bank design for adaptive filtering poses many problems not encountered in more traditional applications such as subband coding of speech or music. The popu ...

Antenna research restructuring in Europe: the Antenna Center of Excellence (ACE)

Juan Ramon Mosig

The EU Framework Programmes (FPs) foster the collaboration and the research structuring across Europe. In FP6, the Antenna Centre of Excellence (ACE) is a Network of Excellence project created to improve the efficiency of antenna research in Europe. Starti ...

Enhancement and subwavelength confinement of light in plasmonic nanostructures

Holger Fischer

This work includes the fabrication of plasmonic nanostructures as well as the investigation of their optical properties in the near-field and in the farfield. As expressed in the title of this thesis the focus lies in the subwavelength confinement and enha ...

Hardware-efficient steering matrix computation architecture for MIMO communication systems

Carl Christian Sten Dominic Senning, Christoph Studer

Beamforming (BF) improves the error rate performance of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) wireless communication systems by spatial separation of the transmitted data streams. Spatial separation is achieved by multiplication of the transmit vector by a ...

Adaptive Beamforming with a Minimum Mutual Information Criterion

In this work, we consider an acoustic beamforming application where two speakers are simultaneously active. We construct one subband-domain beamformer in \emph{generalized sidelobe canceller} (GSC) configuration for each source. In contrast to normal pract ...
