Abstract In this paper, we investigate the problem of wideband sensing for cognitive radio. Due to resource constraint, a node targets at finding given number spectrum holes, which is studied under novel architecture. Specifically, can dynamically focus its measurements on different portions contiguous channels. An adaptive scheme proposed standard Bayesian experimental design framework via thr...

Maritime cognitive radio networks (MCRNs) have recently been proposed for opportunistic utilization of the licensed band. Spectrum sensing is one of the key issues for the successful deployment of the MCRNs. The maritime environment is unique in terms of radio wave propagation over water, surface reflection and wave occlusions. In order to deal with the challenging maritime environment, we prop...

This paper deals with the design of a hydraulicmechanical load-sensing system using computer modelling and simulation in an object-oriented programming environment. As initial, the scheme of a hydraulic-mechanical load-sensing system of Bosch GMbH has been taken. A modified scheme of the system is proposed. The object-oriented mathematical model of the system is composed. The approach is based ...

We consider the cooperative control of a team of robots to estimate the position of a moving target using onboard sensing. In particular, we do not assume that the robot positions are known, but estimate their positions using relative onboard sensing. Our probabilistic localization and control method takes into account the motion and sensing capabilities of the individual robots to minimize the...
