Measuring the weather’s impact on MAC layer over 2.4GHz outdoor radio links
2015
The weather s impact on the performance of a radio link at the 2.4 GHz ISM (Industry, Scientific and Medical) band had not been yet studied in great detail up to now as it is generally believed that the ultra-high frequency band is not significantly affected by weather conditions. However, our study shows significant correlations between meteorological variables and control frame errors at MAC (Medium Access Control) layer of the IEEE 802.11b/g standard. This study is performed over an outdoor radio link setting which has been monitored for several months. Moreover, we check if link distance and so modulation scheme and data rate are also decisive features of such impact. Our real scenario …
Perfomance of Ultra-Wideband OFDM Systems Using Adaptive MPSK Modulation over Nakagami-m Channels
2006
The physical layer proposal of the Multiband OFDM (MB-OFDM) Alliance to the TG3a Working Group of IEEE802.15 for ultra wideband (UWB) systems defines the use of a fixed QPSK modulation scheme in all subcarriers corresponding to 14 subbands of this proposal. In this paper, an adaptive MPSK digital modulation scheme has been proposed to improve the average capacity expressed in bits/symbol for the MB-OFDM. The channel fading has been modeled Nakagami-m distributed and the power delay profile (PDP) is assumed exponential. This average capacity has been evaluated for many channel conditions as a function of the average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the fading parameter of the Nakagami-m distr…
Radio Frequency Spectrum Sensing by Automatic Modulation Classification in Cognitive Radio System Using Multiscale Deep CNN
2022
Automatic modulation categorization (AMC) is used in many applications such as cognitive radio, adaptive communication, electronic reconnaissance, and non-cooperative communications. Predicting the modulation class of an unknown radio signal without having any prior information of the signal parameters is challenging. This paper proposes a novel multiscale deep-learning-based approach for the automatic modulation classification using radio signals. The approach considered the fixed boundary range-based Empirical wavelet transform (FBREWT) based multiscale analysis technique to decompose the radio signal into sub-band signals or modes. The sub-band signals computed from the radio signal comb…
Impact of Spreading Factor Imperfect Orthogonality in LoRa Communications
2017
In this paper we study the impact of imperfect-orthogonality in LoRa spreading factors (SFs) in simulation and real-world experiments. First, we analyze LoRa modulation numerically and show that collisions between packets of different SFs can indeed cause packet loss if the interference power received is strong enough. Second, we validate such findings using commercial devices, confirming our numerical results. Third, we modified and extended LoRaSim, an open-source LoRa simulator, to measure the impact of inter-SF collisions and fading (which was not taken into account previously in the simulator). Our results show that non-orthogonality of the SFs can deteriorate significantly the perform…
Quantitative evaluation of muscle synergy models: a single-trial task decoding approach.
2012
Delis, Ioannis | Berret, Bastien | Pozzo, Thierry | Panzeri, Stefano; International audience; ''Muscle synergies, i.e., invariant coordinated activations of groups of muscles, have been proposed as building blocks that the central nervous system (CNS) uses to construct the patterns of muscle activity utilized for executing movements . Several efficient dimensionality reduction algorithms that extract putative synergies from electromyographic (EMG) signals have been developed. Typically, the quality of synergy decompositions is assessed by computing the Variance Accounted For (VAF). Yet, little is known about the extent to which the combination of those synergies en codes task discriminating…
Robustness of 40 Gb/s ASK modulation formats in the practical system infrastructure.
2006
In this work, we analyzed by means of numerical and laboratory experiments the resilience of 40 Gb/s amplitude shift keying modulation formats to transmission impairments in standard single-mode fiber lines as well as to optical filtering introduced by the optical add/drop multiplexer cascade. Our study is a pre-requisite to assess the implementation of cost-effective 40 Gb/s modulation technology in next generation high bit-rate robust optical transport networks. © 2006 Optical Society of America.
Concurrent Changes of Brain Functional Connectivity and Motor Variability When Adapting to Task Constraints
2018
In behavioral neuroscience, the adaptability of humans facing different constraints has been addressed on one side at the brain level, where a variety of functional networks dynamically support the same performance, and on the other side at the behavioral level, where fractal properties in sensorimotor variables have been considered as a hallmark of adaptability. To bridge the gap between the two levels of observation, we have jointly investigated the changes of network connectivity in the sensorimotor cortex assessed by modularity analysis and the properties of motor variability assessed by multifractal analysis during a prolonged tapping task. Four groups of participants had to produce th…
Comparative Analysis of Modified Modulation Scheme for Three-phase Voltage fed QZS Inverters
2019
Single-stage converters are one promising solution in different field of applications. In particular, quasi-Z-Source VSI topology structure playsan important role because it presents the same advantages of VSI and qZS converters. In addition, it allows increasing the inverter reliability. Moreover, modulation schemes and control strategy are still being developed. For this reason, aim of this paper is to introduce a modified modulation scheme based on the Maximum Constant Boost Control (MCBC) concept and Switching Frequency Optimal (SFO)as reference signals that represents the novelty issue of this work. The analysis has been carried out by comparing the performance of the converter in term…
Performance Comparison of Duobinary Modulation Formats for 40 Gb/s Long-Haul WDM Transmissions
2006
With their compact spectrum and high tolerance to residual chromatic dispersion, duobinary formats are attractive for the deployment of 40 Gb/s technology on 10 Gb/s WDM Long-Haul transmission infrastructures. Here, we compare the robustness of various duobinary formats when facing 40 Gb/s transmission impairments.
Design of a Time Dissemination System Using Chirp Modulation for Medium Voltage Smart Grid Applications
2020
The monitoring and the management of smart grid require an advanced communication infrastructure. The time synchronization is among the most important services such an infrastructure should offer. Several solutions are available to disseminate the time information in a distributed system; for instance, most of the times a global positioning system (GPS) receiver is used to recover accurate time information. However, GPS receivers need a clear view of the sky. Other solutions, like the use of a network-based synchronization mechanism, require a dedicated communication infrastructure, which is not always feasible for economical reason. Thus, the use of the power grid itself to disseminate a t…
