Joint optimal threshold-based relaying and ML detection in cooperative networks
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Article)
This paper proposes two detection schemes for cooperative networks comprising a source, a relay and a destination. The relay is assumed to operate in a half-duplex mode and it employs decode-and-forward (DF) relaying. The ...
Iterative compressive estimation and decoding for network-channel-coded two-way relay sparse ISI channels
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Article)
We propose an iterative compressive channel estimation and decoding scheme for network-channel-coded two-way relay sparse intersymbol interference channels. The underlying system model comprises two source nodes and one ...
Performance analysis of selective cooperation with fixed gain relays in Nakagami-m channels
(
elsevier B.V.
, 2012 , Article)
Selecting the best relay using the maximum signal to noise ratio (SNR) among all the relays ready to cooperate saves system resources and utilizes the available bandwidth more efficiently compared to the regular all-relay ...
Text-dependent writer identification for arabic handwriting
(
Hindawi Publishing Corporation
, 2012 , Article)
This paper proposes a system for text-dependent writer identification based on Arabic handwriting. First, a database of words was assembled and used as a test base. Next, features vectors were extracted from writers' word ...
A new chaos-based image-encryption and compression algorithm
(
Hindawi Publishing Corporation
, 2012 , Article)
We propose a new and efficient method to develop secure image-encryption techniques. The new algorithm combines two techniques: encryption and compression. In this technique, a wavelet transform was used to decompose the ...
A fuzzy logic based irrigation management system in arid regions applied to the state of qatar
(
WITPress
, 2012 , Article)
In arid and hyper arid regions like Qatar, the time and duration of irrigation is key to achieving sustainable irrigations. This paper proposes a practical solution based on artificial intelligence where all design and ...
Phenol degradation by powdered metal ion modified titanium dioxide photocatalysts
(2012 , Article)
Conventional water purification and disinfection generally involve potentially hazardous substances, some of which known to be carcinogenic in nature. Titanium dioxide photocatalytic processes provide an effective route ...
Automatic seizure detection based on the combination of newborn multi-channel EEG and HRV information Advances in Nonstationary Electrophysiological Signal Analysis and Processing
(2012 , Article)
This article proposes a new method for newborn seizure detection that uses information extracted from both multi-channel electroencephalogram (EEG) and a single channel electrocardiogram (ECG). The aim of the study is to ...
Efficient phase estimation for the classification of digitally phase modulated signals using the cross-WVD: A performance evaluation and comparison with the S-transform
(2012 , Article)
This article presents a novel algorithm based on the cross-Wigner-Ville Distribution (XWVD) for optimum phase estimation within the class of phase shift keying signals. The proposed method is a special case of the genera ...
Instantaneous frequency based newborn EEG seizure characterisation
(2012 , Article)
The electroencephalogram (EEG), used to noninvasively monitor brain activity, remains the most reliable tool in the diagnosis of neonatal seizures. Due to their nonstationary and multi-component nature, newborn EEG seizures ...
