Enhancing passive UHF RFID backscatter energy using chirp spread spectrum signals and channel shortening
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Performance of passive ultrahigh frequency radio-frequency identification (UHF RFID) systems depends on the energy level of the backscattered signal from the RF tag to the RFID reader. In the indoor environment, the ...
IoT-based smart parking system for sporting event management

Association for Computing Machinery
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
By connecting devices, people, vehicles and infrastructures everywhere in a city, governments and their partners can improve community wellbeing and other economic and financial aspects (e.g., cost and energy savings). ...
Understanding the impact of network structure on propagation dynamics based on mobile big data
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Understanding the propagation dynamics of information/an epidemic on complex networks is very important for discovering and controlling a terrorist attack, and even for predicting a disease outbreak. As an effective method, ...
An Arabic mobile educational system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Digital devices and computer software can assist children in improving their learning capabilities and comprehension skills. However most of these items are built without taking into consideration the effective needs and ...
A PSO approach for robust aircraft routing
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
To mitigate the impact of unpredictable disruptions, airlines are seeking to proactively design schedules that incorporate some robustness features. In this paper, we propose a novel simulation-optimization approach using ...
Optimization of probability of error in collaborative spectrum sensing of time-limited cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
We study the probability of error optimization problem in collaborative spectrum sensing (CSS) with limited time resources in cognitive radio (CR) networks. The frame structures for sensing and data transmission, if the ...
Signature Verification for Offline Skilled Forgeries Using Textural Features
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This study explores the effectiveness of two texturalmeasurements on signature verification for skilled forgeries. These texture features include 2D autoregressive coefficients andrun-length distributions. Signature images ...
Radar fall detectors: A comparison
(
SPIE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Falls are a major cause of accidents in elderly people. Even simple falls can lead to severe injuries, and sometimes result in death. Doppler fall detection has drawn much attention in recent years. Micro-Doppler signatures ...
Suboptimal control reconfiguration in switched multi-agent networked systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this work, the control recovery problem in a directed network of switched multi-agent systems is studied. A distributed cooperative control strategy is proposed which ensures that the agents reach a consensus while the ...
