A non-stationary multipath fading channel model incorporating the effect of velocity variations of the mobile station
2014
A standard assumption in mobile fading channel modelling is that the mobile station (MS) moves along a straight line with constant speed. In practice, this assumption is violated in most propagation scenarios. For the development of more realistic channel models, it is therefore important to relax this restriction by allowing the MS to change its velocity. In this paper, we study the effect of velocity changes on the statistical properties of multipath fading channels. Expressions will be derived for the local autocorrelation function (ACF), the Wigner-Ville spectrum, the average Doppler shift, and the Doppler spread. Our findings show that a variation of the speed and/or the direction of t…
New systems for extracting 3-D shape information from images
1993
Neural architectures may offer an adequate way to deal with early vision since they are able to learn shape features or classify unknown shapes, generalising the features of a few meaningful examples, with a low computational cost after the training phase. Two different neural approaches are proposed by the authors: the first one consists of a cascaded architecture made up by a first stage named BWE (Boundary Webs Extractor) which is aimed to extract a brightness gradient map from the image, followed by a backpropagation network that estimates the geometric parameters of the object parts present in the perceived scene. The second approach is based on the extraction of the boundary webs map …
Smart Manufacturing Testbed for the Advancement of Wireless Adoption in the Factory
2020
Wireless communication is a key enabling technology central to the advancement of the goals of the Industry 4.0 smart manufacturing concept. Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology are constructing a testbed to aid in the adoption of wireless technology within the factory workcell and other harsh industrial radio environments. In this paper the authors present a new industrial wireless testbed design that motivates academic research and is relevant to the needs of industry. The testbed is designed to serve as both a demonstration and research platform for the wireless workcell. The work leverages lessons learned from past testbed incarnations that included a dual r…
Performance evaluation of sum-of-cisoids Rice/Rayleigh fading channel simulators with respect to the bit error probability
2014
Sum-of-cisoids (SOC) processes provide an important framework for the modeling and simulation of multipath fading channels. In this paper, we analyze the performance of SOC Rice/Rayleigh narrowband fading channel simulators with respect to the bit error probability (BEP) of quadrature phase shift keying (QPSK) and differential phase shift keying (DPSK) systems with both coherent and noncoherent demodulation. For the BEP of coherent QPSK and DPSK, exact analytical expressions are derived, which provide insight into the influence of the number of propagation paths and the path gains on the system performance. It will be shown that at least 10 multipath components are required to guarantee tha…
Modeling and statistical characterization of wideband indoor radio propagation channels
2010
In this paper, we focus on the modeling of wideband single-input single-output (SISO) mobile fading channels for indoor propagation environments. The derived indoor reference channel model is based on a geometrical scattering model, which consists of an infinite number of scatterers uniformly distributed over the two-dimensional (2D) horizontal plane of a rectangular room. We derive analytical expressions for the probability density function (PDF) of the angle of arrival (AOA), the power delay profile (PDP), and the frequency correlation function (FCF). An efficient sum-of-cisoids (SOC) channel simulator will be derived from the proposed non-realizable reference model. It is shown that the …
Study of transmission parameters under controlled multipath environment using Rasp Pi3
2018
The evaluation of QoS in mobile multipath environments is an interesting topic in modern communications. The use of Raspberry Pi as a low cost microcomputer board developed in the United Kingdom by the Raspberry Pi Foundation can be helpful in onsite deployments. The Pi3 model has integrated WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity and also 4 USB ports to expand the device with all kinds of peripheral. Under the premise of offering the power of a computer at low prices, this device is one of the most affordable ways to have a particularly efficient and dynamic hardware accessible at a low price to develop a Wireless Sensor Netwok (WSN). The use of the Raspberry Pi3 permits the development of a power…
Khmer character recognition using artificial neural network
2014
Character Recognition has become an interesting and a challenge topic research in the field of pattern recognition in recent decade.
