Joint resource scheduling and peak power shaving for cloud data centers with distributed Uninterruptible power Supply
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The grid company enforces high penalties for the peak power demands of cloud data centers. These high penalties result in high electricity bill that can be avoided by relying on the servers' Uninterruptible Power Supply ...
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 ...
Radar fall detection using principal component analysis
(
SPIE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Falls are a major cause of fatal and nonfatal injuries in people aged 65 years and older. Radar has the potential to become one of the leading technologies for fall detection, thereby enabling the elderly to live independently. ...
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 ...
Learned vs. engineered features for fine-grained classification of aquatic macroinvertebrates
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Aquatic macroinvertebrate biomonitoring is an efficient way of assessment of slow and subtle anthropogenic changes and their effect on water quality. It is imperative to have reliable identification and counts of the various ...
Analysis of In-band Full-Duplex OFDM Signals Affected by Phase Noise and I/Q Imbalance
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The idea of the simultaneous transmission and reception of data using the same frequency is a potential candidate to be deployed in the next generation wireless communications standard 5G. The In-Band Full-Duplex (IBFD) ...
Wireless Car Control Over the Cellular System
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Nowadays, electric robots play big role in many fields as they can replace humans and decrease the amount of load on humans. There are several types of robots that are present in the daily life, some of them are fully ...
Performance Analysis of Multiphase High Power Open End Drives Fed from Dual Matrix Converter
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper an open ended seven phase stator winding drive is considered for analysis that is to be fed from matrix converter controlled by space vector pulse width modulation scheme. Open-end winding variable speed ...
Investigation Into the Effects of Non-Linear Loading of Domestic Power Network on Home Appliances
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Non-Linear loads such as Compact Fluorescent lamps (CFLs), Light Emitting diodes (LEDs),Solid state voltage regulators, and variable speed electric drives are increasingly being added tothe domestic, residential and ...
The Secure Degrees of Freedom of the MIMO BC and MIMO MAC with Multiple Unknown Eavesdroppers
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
We investigate the secure degrees of freedom (SDoF) of a two-transmitter Gaussian multiple access channel with multiple antennas at the transmitters, a legitimate receiver and an unknown number of eavesdroppers each with ...
