Novel Angle of Arrival Algorithm for Use in Acoustical Positioning Systems with Non Uniform Receiver ArraysUtley, Christopher 10 1900 (has links)
ITC/USA 2010 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-Sixth Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 25-28, 2010 / Town and Country Resort & Convention Center, San Diego, California / Traditional angle of arrival algorithms operate with uniform receiver arrays. Non-uniform arrays typically introduce significant elevation of computation complexity. This paper utilizes the double-integration method for the accurate estimation of the angle of arrival with non-uniform receiver arrays, while maintaining high computation efficiency. Because of the simplicity, the double-integration method is not significantly affected by the increase of the number of receivers or the non-uniform configuration. This approach allows us to perform high-speed high-accuracy estimation of the two-dimensional bearing angle without the constraints of structured receiver arrays, which is important to the realization of real-time tracking of mobile acoustic sources.

Radio-Location Techniques for Localization and Monitoring Applications. A study of localisation techniques, using OFDM system under adverse channel conditions and radio frequency identification for object identification and movement trackingShuaieb, Wafa S.A. January 2018 (has links)
A wide range of services and applications become possible when accurate position
information for a radio terminal is available. These include: location-based services;
navigation; safety and security applications. The commercial, industrial and military value
of radio-location is such that considerable research effort has been directed towards
developing related technologies, using satellite, cellular or local area network
infrastructures or stand-alone equipment.
This work studies and investigates two location techniques. The first one presents an
implementation scheme for a wideband transmission and direction finding system using
OFDM multi-carrier communications systems. This approach takes advantage of delay
discrimination to improve angle-of-arrival estimation in a multipath channel with high
levels of additive white Gaussian noise. A new methodology is interpreted over the multi carrier modulation scheme in which the simulation results of the estimated channel
improves the performance of OFDM signal by mitigating the effect of frequency offset
synchronization to give error-free data at the receiver, good angle of arrival accuracy and
improved SNR performance. The full system simulation to explore optimum values such
as channel estimation and AoA including the antenna array model and prove the
operational performance of the OFDM system as implemented in MATLAB.
The second technique proposes a low cost-effective method of tracking and monitoring
objects (examples: patient, device, medicine, document) by employing passive radio
frequency identification (RFID) systems. A multi-tag, (totalling fifty-six tags) with known
ID values are attached to the whole patient’s body to achieve better tracking and
monitoring precision and higher accuracy. Several tests with different positions and
movements are implemented on six patients. The aim is to be able to track the patient if
he/she is walking or sitting; therefore, the tests considered six possible movements for
the patient including walking, standing, sitting, resting, laying on the floor and laying on
the bed, these placements are important to monitor the status of the patient like if he
collapsed and fall on the ground so that the help will be quick. The collected data from
the RFID Reader in terms of Time Stamp, RSS, Tag ID, and a number of channels are
processed using the MATLAB code.

Brave New World Reloaded: Advocating for Basic Constitutional Search Protections to Apply to Cell Phones from Eavesdropping and Tracking by Government and Corporate EntitiesBerrios-Ayala, Mark 01 December 2013 (has links)
Imagine a world where someone’s personal information is constantly compromised, where federal government entities AKA Big Brother always knows what anyone is Googling, who an individual is texting, and their emoticons on Twitter. Government entities have been doing this for years; they never cared if they were breaking the law or their moral compass of human dignity. Every day the Federal government blatantly siphons data with programs from the original ECHELON to the new series like PRISM and Xkeyscore so they can keep their tabs on issues that are none of their business; namely, the personal lives of millions. Our allies are taking note; some are learning our bad habits, from Government Communications Headquarters’ (GCHQ) mass shadowing sharing plan to America’s Russian inspiration, SORM. Some countries are following the United States’ poster child pose of a Brave New World like order of global events. Others like Germany are showing their resolve in their disdain for the rise of tyranny. Soon, these new found surveillance troubles will test the resolve of the American Constitution and its nation’s strong love and tradition of liberty. Courts are currently at work to resolve how current concepts of liberty and privacy apply to the current conditions facing the privacy of society. It remains to be determined how liberty will be affected as well; liberty for the United States of America, for the European Union, the Russian Federation and for the people of the World in regards to the extent of privacy in today’s blurred privacy expectations.
