Novel selective OFDM-based cooperative techniques for multi-hop systems
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Article)
In multi-hop systems, the theoretical outage probabilities and diversity orders of novel Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) based Decode and Forward (DF) cooperative techniques are derived for different ...
The impact of authentic complex engineering design experience for k-12 students on 21st century attributes and perceptions towards STEM fields (Evaluation, Strand 3)
(
American Society for Engineering Education
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Recent studies showed that embedding engineering at K-12 level has a positive impact on stimulating interest in- and improving learning outcomes of science and mathematics, and development of 21st Century skills. Engineering ...
Contributions of competition based complex engineering design experience to leadership development in engineering students
(
American Society for Engineering Education
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Engineering design activities provide students an opportunity to develop a number of skills. Engineering design experiences not only help students to acquire practical or technical skills, but also may enhance a number of ...
Inter-relay interference management schemes for wireless multi-user decode-and-forward relay networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
In this paper, two cooperative communications schemes with inter-relay interference (IRI) management are proposed for wireless multi-user decode-and-forward (DF) relay networks. The schemes are based on a DF half-duplex ...
Modeling Heterogeneous Cellular Networks Interference Using Poisson Cluster Processes
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Article)
Future mobile networks are converging toward heterogeneous multitier networks, where macro-, pico-, and femto-cells are randomly deployed based on user demand. A popular approach for analyzing heterogeneous networks (HetNets) ...
Modelling, analysis and performance improvement of an SRU's access request queue in multi-channel V2I communications
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a concise yet comprehensive description of a multi-channel Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication system. Existing mathematical models for such a system overlook some of its essential behavioural ...
Adaptive network coding for spectrum sharing systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we propose an adaptive network coding scheme for cognitive relay networks comprising multiple secondary sources communicating with a common destination in the presence of multiple primary users. Conventional ...
Optimal power consumption based on new power spectral efficiency metric for wireless cellular networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we introduce a new power spectral efficiency (PSE) metric, to quantify the spectral efficiency and the total required power to cover a certain area with a predefined received signal quality. This metric ...
Effective area spectral efficiency metric for decode-and-forward cooperative wireless communications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we introduce a new metric, namely: effective area spectral efficiency (EASE), to quantify the spectral efficiency as well as the spatial properties of decoding and forward (DF) relaying wireless communications ...
Capacity analysis of cognitive wireless networks with dynamic spectrum access
(
IEEE Computer Society
