Exposure assessment to WiFi access points by simulations and measurements
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
This paper discusses two different approaches to assess exposure to indoor WiFi access points at two different frequency bands: 2.4GHz and 5GHz. The first analyzes the electromagnetic propagation in almost empty environments ...
Modeling and analysis of HetNet interference using Poisson Cluster Processes
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Future mobile networks are converging towards being heterogeneous, owing to the co-existence of multi-tier networks within the same geographical area, including macro, pico- and femto-cells. The deployment of such networks ...
Preparing and educating the Arab Qatari engineer of 2030
(
American Society for Engineering Education
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper addresses the issue of adapting Engineering Education to a changing situation in Qatar, a small country that is part of the Arab Gulf Cooperation Council. It presents the framework for a national project planned ...
A signal combining technique based on channel shortening for cooperative sensor networks
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The cooperative relaying process needs proper coordination among the communicating and the relaying nodes. This coordination and the required capabilities may not be available in some wireless systems, e.g. wireless sensor ...
Performances analysis of SEC based transmit diversity systems with MRC receivers
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Switch and Examine combining (SEC) diversity scheme is one of the simplest yet efficient diversity schemes. Earlier in [1] and [2], we proposed sequential power loading algorithm to reduce the average power used at the ...
Joint hierarchical modulation and network coding for two way relay networks
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
The performance of a joint Hierarchical Modulation (HM) and Network Coding (NC) scheme for two way relay networks is introduced and evaluated in this paper. The proposed scheme uses selective relaying based on a signal-to-noise ...
Life is engineering program: Impact of an engineering outreach project in K-12
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
The demand for qualified national engineers is high in Qatar; Currently, a wide gap in supply exists. Consequently, urgent and proactive interventions at K-12 level to promote engineering profession to school students are ...
Modified Alamouti decoding for highly selective channels for LTE systems
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
In this contribution, we propose an improvement of Alamouti coding for equalization of space-time block code multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) over highly-selective ...
Advanced experimental setup for the reliability characterization of radio-acoustic sensors in water pipes
(
IEEE
, 2011 , Conference Paper)
The paper presents the design and construction of a test bench for the analysis and certification of radio-acoustic sensors inside conduits filled with liquids. It is a brand new test-set that integrates the capability to ...
Partial relay selection in underlay cognitive networks with fixed gain relays
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
In a communication system with multiple cooperative relays, selecting the best relay utilizes the available spectrum more efficiently. However, selective relaying poses a different problem in underlay cognitive networks ...
