This paper presents the problem of estimating the parameters of a given number of superimposed signals, as is the case of the received signal in wireless communications. Based on the description of the received signal in the frequency domain, one version of the SAGE (Space-Alternating Generalized ExpectationMaximization) algorithm is presented, allowing the estimation, for each impinging ray, t...

sessed. Resource constraints and financial pressures have become common in health care; if Saleh et al. [1] practice in settings where such constraints are absent, they are fortunate indeed. We conclude by agreeing with Hanssen et al. [2] that the use of modeling is not a substitute for well-designed randomized, controlled trials. These have been rare in the field of orthopedic infectious disea...

In this paper, we present a statistical model of an indirect path generated in an ultra-wideband (UWB) human tracking scenario. When performing moving target detection, an indirect path signal can generate ghost targets that may cause a false alarm. For this purpose, we performed radar measurements in an indoor environment and established a statistical model of an indirect path based on the mea...

i would like to thank ALLAH for helping me to complete this thesis. I also wish to express my deep gratitude to academic supervisor Prof. Saleh A. Alshebeili for his invaluable guidance, stimulating advice, and continuous help through the entire period of this thesis. would like to thank Eng. Hitham Alsager for his help in programming. The list of people who have helped me is very long. I apolo...

[1] This study quantifies the effects of Sun reflection over land surfaces on radiometric measurements at L-band. The impact of the reflected Sun on radiometric measurements over a grass field and over an agricultural area reached 25 K and 17 K respectively. A model that predicts the impact of Sun reflection over land is developed and tested for two different radiometer configurations and spati...
