In this paper we integrate the ideas of network coding and relays into an existing practical network architecture used in a wireless network scenario. Specifically, we use the COPE architecture to test our ideas. Since previous works have focused on the communication aspect at the physical layer level, we attempt to take it one step further by including the MAC layer. Our idea is based on information theoretic concepts developed by Shannon in order to reliably apply network coding to increase the net throughput.
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur automatischen Klassifikation des Modulationsformats eines digital modulierten Signals, welches die empfangenen I/Q-Datenpunkte zuerst für jedes Modulationsformat mittels eines Clustering-Verfahrens ausgewertet, wobei nach Durchführung des Clustering-Verfahrens für jedes der Modulationsformate jeweils alle I/Q-Datenpunkte jeweils einem ermittelten Cluster-Schwerpunkt zugeordnet sind. Danach wird für jedes Modulationsformat jeweils der Wert einer Nutzenfunktion bestimmt, welche einen umso höheren (niedrigeren) Wert annimmt, je besser die einem Cluster-Schwerpunkt zugeordneten I/Q-Datenpunkte durch den Cluster-Schwerpunkt abgedeckt sind und je geringer die euklidischen Abstände der ermittelten Custer-Schwerpunkte von dem zugeordneten Konstellationspunkt sind. Es wird dann dasjenige Modulationsformat als das für das digital modulierte Signal zutreffende Modulationsformat angenommen, für welche die Nutzenfunktion den höchsten (niedrigsten) Wert annimmt.
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zum Spektrum-Monitoring eines vorgegebenen Frequenzbandes, bei dem die spektrale Leistungsdichte (S(f)) innerhalb des vorgegebenen Frequenzbandes für alle in dem Frequenzband enthaltenen Rausch- und Signalanteile bestimmt wird und für das Detektieren des Vorhandenseins eines oder mehrerer Signale innerhalb des vorgegebenen Frequenzbandes das Überschreiten eines Schwellenwertes (λ) durch die spektrale Leistungsdichte (S(f)) ausgewertet wird. Erfindungsgemäß wird der Schwellenwert (λ) abhängig von einer Schätzung einer Verteilungsdichte (hR(S)) für den Rauschanteil der spektralen Leistungsdichte (S(f)) innerhalb des vorgegebenen Frequenzbandes und einem vorgegebenen Wert für die Falschalarmwahrscheinlichkeit (Pfa) berechnet.
The invention concerns a method for spectrum monitoring a given frequency band, in which the spectral power density (S(f)) within the given frequency band is determined for all noise and signal components in the frequency band and, in order to detect the presence of one or more signals within the given frequency band, it is evaluated whether the spectral power density (S(f)) exceeds a threshold value (&lgr;). According to the invention, the threshold value (&lgr;) is calculated in accordance with an estimation of a distribution density (hR(S)) for the noise component of the spectral power density (S(f)) within the given frequency band and in accordance with a predefined value for the false-alarm probability (Pfa).
Cellular phone antennas are generally designed to have radiation patterns that are as omnidirectional as possible. Omnidirectional antennas allow a phone’s radio to work well for many orientations of the phone with respect to the cellular base station. Recent studies, however, are generating uncertainty about the health effects of prolonged exposure to electromagnetic (EM) radiation from cellular phones. In this paper, an antenna array is designed primarily to minimize users’ exposure to EM radiation. The antenna comprises a beamforming 4 by 3 array of microstrip patch antennas that is controlled by an accelerometer-only inertial navigation system. The proposed design reduces radiated power directed toward the user to below 10% of the total in the worst case.
The automatic classification of the modulation format of a detected signal is the intermediate step between signal detection and demodulation. If neither the transmitted data nor other signal parameters such as the frequency offset, phase offset and timing information are known, then automatic modulation classification (AMC) is a challenging task in radio monitoring systems. The approach of clustering algorithms is a new trend in AMC for digital modulations. A novel algorithm called `highest constellation pattern matching' is introduced to identify quadrature amplitude modulation and phase shift keying signals. The obtained simulation and measurement results outperform the existing algorithms for AMC based on clustering. Finally, it is shown that the proposed algorithm works in a real monitoring environment.
Since cabling is very complex and often causes reliability problems in aircrafts new approaches which base on wireless technologies are highly desired. In this paper an innovative communication system is proposed that uses the essential elements of the airframe for data transfer. The communication is based on the wireless standard for Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) and enables high data rates, which are required for the in-flight entertainment system as an example of use.
