of the Dissertation Restoration of Images in the Presence of Rician Noise and in the Presence of Atmospheric Turbulence

Signal detection performance in cognitive radio architecture is enhanced by the cooperation of sensing detectors if the fading and shadowing effects exist on the channel. A cooperative spectrum sensing technique in cognitive radio networks based on two-sample Kolmogorov-Smirnov test is proposed in this paper and proposed sensing scheme is examined under Rician fading channel. The performance of...

A detailed analysis of the multiple access interference (MAI) for synchronous downlink CDMA systems is carried out for BPSK signals with random signature sequences in Nakagami-m fading environment with known channel phase. This analysis presents a unified approach as Nakagami-m fading is a general fading distribution that includes the Rayleigh, the one-sided Gaussian, the Nakagami-q, and the Ri...

In this paper, a novel unified analytical expression for average bit error rates (ABER) and average channel capacity (ACC) is presented for the – shadowed fading model. This model has recently shown to be suitable for underwater acoustic wireless channel modeling using the measurements conducted by the Naval Research Laboratory [1], and is not so well covered in the public literature. Deploying...

of Long Term Evolution (LTE) for indoor coverage extension. Heterogeneous networks in which femto and pico-cells are overlaid onto macro-cells are extensively discussed. In order to maintain reliable service of macro-cells, it is important to mitigate destructive femto-femto (co-channel) and femto-macro (adjacent or cross channel) cell interferences respectively. This paper presents the perform...
