Wireless Communications: an Executive Summary

نویسنده

  • Anthony Ephremides
چکیده

What follows is a summary discussion of the current state and trends in wireless communications. The overview of this rapidly expanding and technologically diverse field is based on the discoveries of the WTEC panelists during their site visits to leading companies and experts in Europe, Japan, and the United States as well as the panelists' expertise in the various areas of wireless communications. Included in this chapter are sections on the major drivers affecting wireless communications growth; a discussion of bottlenecks, such as systems interoperability, that threaten the development of wireless connectivity; and, finally, a sampling of technology highpoints, including the muchdiscussed "software radios."

Indoor Non-directed Optical Wireless Communications - Optimization of the Lambertian Order

For an indoor non-directed line of sight optical wireless communication (NLOS-OWC) system we investigate the optimized Lambertian order (OLO) of light-emitting diodes (LEDs). We firstly derive an expression for the OLO from a conventional Lambertian LED model. Then, we analyze the indoor multi-cell NLOS-OWC channel characteristics including the optical power distribution and the multipath time ...

A Novel Small E–Ring Shaped Monopole Antenna with Dual Band-Notch Function for UWB Wireless Communications

This paper presents an E-ring shaped printed monopole antenna for UWB applications with dual notched bands performance. In order to generate single frequency band notch function, we applied a U-ring shaped monopole antenna, and by inserting a rectangular ring in the centre of it an E-ring shaped radiating patch created and a dual band-notch function can be achieved. The measured bandwidth of th...

Analysis of a Wireless Transmission System based on OFDM

Executive Summary This guided research project aim to develop a better understanding of the operational characteristics of an OFDM system under multipath conditions. During the course of the project a Rayleigh fading multipath channel model was developed and used to test the performance of the cyclic guard prefix method of avoiding ISI in OFDM systems. During the next phase of the project, a st...

Mitigating Node Capture Attack in Random Key Distribution Schemes through Key Deletion

Random Key Distribution (RKD) schemes have been widely accepted to enable low-cost secure communications in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). However, efficiency of secure link establishment comes with the risk of compromised communications between benign nodes by adversaries who physically capture sensor nodes. The challenge is to enhance resilience of WSN against node capture, while maintainin...
