Optimum power and rate allocation in video sensor networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In a sensor network, each sensor has a limited energy supply. Therefore, it is critical to minimize the power consumed by each sensor to maximize its lifetime. Video sensor networks differ from conventional sensor networks ...
Interference management schemes with general order statistics and interference constraint for multi-user cooperative wireless networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, two cooperative communications schemes with interference management are proposed for multiuser wireless networks. The first scheme (Interference Constraint based Relay Selection (ICRS)) maximizes the received ...
From global to local: Investigation of necessary engineering skills for KBE transformation in Qatar in the context of global engineering attributes
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
this paper provides the findings of a study on investigating the required contextual engineering skills in Qatar in light of the global engineering skills. A set of 20 attributes were identified in the literature, and ...
Time-frequency compressed spectrum sensing in cognitive radios
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the use of time-frequency analysis for improvement of spectrum sensing in cognitive radios and exploit compressed sensing (sampling) to reduce the extremely high sampling rate of signal in ...
Impact of location heterogeneity on random walk mobility models
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates random walk mobility models with location heterogeneity, where different locations may have different neighboring regions.With the assumption of totally n locations, we consider two cases, i.e., ...
A survey on communication infrastructure for micro-grids
(2013 , Conference Paper)
A micro-grid is a small scale power supply network that is designed to provide electricity to a small community with its own renewable energy sources. Due to distributed generation variability, security and load sharing ...
