ITC/USA 2008 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Fourth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 27-30, 2008 / Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, San Diego, California / A critical element of the proposed iNET architecture is the development of a telemetry network that provides two-way communication between multiple nodes on both the ground and in the air. Conventional airborne telemetry is based on IRIG-106 Chapter 4 and provides only a serial streaming data path from the aircraft to the ground. The network-centric architecture of iNET requires not only a duplex communication link between the ground and the test article, but also a communication link that provides higher bandwidth performance, higher spectrum efficiency, and a transport environment that is capable of fully packetized Internet Protocol. This paper describes the development path followed by TTC in the implementation of its nXCVR-2000G, an OFDM 802-11a-based iNET-ready IP transceiver.

Wireless networks are common in large organisations that can cover multiple floors and buildings. Wireless networks become expensive as they grow and more control and coordination is needed to operate and management them. This thesis describes how CloudMAC, a software defined networking solution (SDN), were implemented in OpenDaylight Hydrogen, a SDN controller. CloudMAC reduces complexity in large wireless local area networks. CloudMAC splits access points (AP) into, a physical (accesses the wireless medium) and a logical (handles the processing of data) part. These two part are then placed in different locations in a wired network. The parts are connected by making tunnels through the network. Some of the communications in wireless networks are time sensitive. Such time sensitive communication is easily disturbed during congestion. To improve CloudMAC, quality of service (QoS) was implemented. QoS was used both in the wired network and in accessing the wireless medium. Evaluations shows how to evaluate queues utilization and performance.

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 20-23, 2003 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / When a sensor is replaced or added to a legacy data acquisition system, information for that sensor has to be incorporated by the software programmer into the main system software - a costly and timeconsuming process. The new ‘smart’ sensors that are being designed according to the new IEEE P1451.3 and .4 standards will have the necessary information contained in their Transducer Electronics Data Sheet (TEDS). A method has been developed to give the old sensors the intelligence to meet the requirements of these new IEEE standards without changes to the legacy hardware and a minor change to the system software.

Debugging and testing today's complex processors and embedded systems provides many challenges. A Debug and Trace Probe with a standard interface to Target Systems (TS) can be used to debug and test both hardware and software components in complex systems. With a debug and trace probe information regarding the operation of the system can be obtained and analyzed to understand how the system is functioning and where problems may lie. This report presents an IEEE 1149.7-compliant cJTAG Controller design and implmentation for use in a Debug and Trace System (DTS). / text

Approved for public release / The proliferation of Fourth Generation (4G) mobile wireless networks has led to an increased demand for position-based services. In many densely populated environments, there is an abundance of base stations by which a mobile station may be passively geographically located (geolocated) using various techniques that require multiple base stations. Areas in which base station density is sparse may not possess the requisite number of base stations to perform such techniques and, therefore, require different methods by which to geolocate mobile stations. In this thesis, we present a passive geolocation scheme that only requires observation of the initial ranging information exchange between a mobile station and a single base station in order to determine a position estimate for the mobile station. The scheme is specifically applied to the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) 802.16 Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) 4G standard. The method is validated through computer simulation and field experimentation in an Alcatel-Lucent IEEE 802.16e-2005 deployed network. The mean geolocation error resulting from simulation and experimentation was 85 meters, which is a degradation of 58 meters compared to a three-base station scenario. / Captain, United States Marine Corps

Mais especificamente, foi analisado o impacto que transmissões Bluetooth causam em transmissões de dados IEEE 802.11g. Foram analisados cinco parâmetros: tempo de transmissão, taxa média de transmissão de pacotes, taxa média de transmissão de dados, número de pacotes perdidos e número de pacotes ACK duplicados. Por meio da comparação entre os resultados obtidos para esses parâmetros sem interferência Bluetooth e com interferência Bluetooth, foi possível determinar que a transmissão Bluetooth afetou a transmissão IEEE 802.11g. Os experimentos foram realizados para três distâncias entre os transmissores e receptores Bluetooth e Wi-Fi. Inicialmente, avaliou-se a interferência para a distância de 1,60 m. Em seguida, para 2,60 m e, por fim, para 4,60 m. Para as distâncias de 1,60 m e 2,60 m não havia obstáculos entre os dispositivos de transmissão e recepção. Para a distância de 4,60 m, havia uma parede de alvenaria. Os resultados obtidos mostraram que a interferência Bluetooth na transmissão IEEE 802.11g foi maior com o aumento da distância, sendo mais significativa para a distância de 4,60 m

The IEEE 802.15.4 is defined as a Low-Rate Wireless Personal Area Network, which is also called ZigBee. The characteristics of ZigBee are low power consumption for battery life, extremely low cost, short-range operation. According to 915 MHz Amplitude Shift Keying Modulation part of IEEE 802.15.4 ¡V 2006, we designed transmitter and receiver in base band part. In the later article, we will introduce my algorithm design, the Quantization and the Architecture in hard- ware implementation, the simulations, and the final verifying work of the layout that we did. Finally, we make a conclusion of this thesis, and we bring up the possible improvement in this design. In my algorithm of the ZigBee receiver, I fined a new table to replace the original table of spec IEEE 802.15.4 to solve multi-sequence interference, which can improve the performance about 0.2 to 0.4dB. My algorithm is lower 1.5dB than the Ideal receiver, which simulate in none carrier frequency offset (CFO) and none sample time offset, but both of mine are biggest. Then, my architecture implementation in hardware is lower about 1.5dB than my algorithm. Completed the hardware circuit design and simulations, I applied for a layout in 0.18-um CMOS technology.

This thesis studies the physical layer (PHY layer) of the IEEE 802.11n wireless local area network (WLAN) standard. The possibility of integrating a receiver designed according to the standard with software-defined radios is investigated. The proposed design was implemented in MATLAB and tested using two softwaredefined radios. One of the radios transmitted IEEE 802.11n signals whilst the other one captured them and sent them to a computer for decoding. In this way, evaluation of the proposed receiver design was done. The tests resulted in successfully decoded WLAN packets, although errors occured regularly due to distortions in the air. The proposed MATLAB design can be developed further, with more features, for future tests and research.

Se plantea la posibilidad de migrar a IEEE 802.16 (WiMAX) en los lugares donde se usa WiFi como solución tecnológica ya que la primera es una tecnología inalámbrica diseñada para redes MAN que no solo permite conectividad inalámbrica sino también velocidades de banda ancha; lográndose llenar los vacíos que deja WiFi. De esta manera se estaría fomentando el acceso universal el cual es un componente en la estrategia del desarrollo de las telecomunicaciones en el Perú. / Tesis
