Iterative low-complexity multiuser detection and decoding for coded UWB systemsSathish, Arun D. 07 1900 (has links)
In general, ultra wideband (UWB) signals are transmitted using ~'eIYshort pulses m tiIae
domain, thus promising very high data rates. In this thesis, a recei'ler structure is proposed for
decoding multiuser information data in a convolutionally coded UWB system. The proposed
iterative receiver has three stages: a pulse detector, a symbol detector, and a channel decoder.
Each of these stages outputs soft values, which are used as a priori information in the next
iteration. Simulation results show that the proposed system can provide performance very close
to a single-user system. / Thesis (M.S.)--Wichita State University, College of Engineering, Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering. / "July 2006." / Incluldes bibliographic references (leaves 29-31)

A novel sound reconstruction technique based on a spike code (event) representationPahar, Madhurananda January 2016 (has links)
This thesis focuses on the re-generation of sound from a spike based coding system. Three different types of spike based coding system have been analyzed. Two of them are biologically inspired spike based coding systems i.e. the spikes are generated in a similar way to how our auditory nerves generate spikes. They have been called AN (Auditory Nerve) spikes and AN Onset (Amplitude Modulated Onset) spikes. Sounds have been re-generated from spikes generated by both of those spike coding technique. A related event based coding technique has been developed by Koickal and the sounds have been re-generated from spikes generated by Koickal's spike coding technique and the results are compared. Our brain does not reconstruct sound from the spikes received from auditory nerves, it interprets it. But by reconstructing sounds from these spike coding techniques, we will be able to identify which spike based technique is better and more efficient for coding different types of sounds. Many issues and challenges arise in reconstructing sound from spikes and they are discussed. The AN spike technique generates the most spikes of the techniques tested, followed by Koickal's technique (54.4% lower) and the AN Onset technique (85.6% lower). Both subjective and objective types of testing have been carried out to assess the quality of reconstructed sounds from these three spike coding techniques. Four types of sounds have been used in the subjective test: string, percussion, male voice and female voice. In the objective test, these four types and many other types of sounds have been included. From the results, it has been established that AN spikes generates the best quality of decoded sounds but it produces many more spikes than the others. AN Onset spikes generates better quality of decoded sounds than Koickal's technique for most of sounds except choir type of sounds and noises, however AN Onset spikes produces 68.5% fewer spikes than Koickal's spikes. This provides evidences that AN Onset spikes can outperform Koickal's spikes for most of the sound types.

Scheduling For Stable And Reliable Communication Over Multiaccess Channels And Degraded Broadcast ChannelsKalyanarama Sesha Sayee, KCV 07 1900 (has links)
Information-theoretic arguments focus on modeling the reliability of information transmission, assuming availability of infinite data at sources, thus ignoring randomness in message generation times at the respective sources. However, in information transport networks, not only is reliable transmission important, but also stability, i.e., finiteness of mean delay in-
curred by messages from the time of generation to the time of successful reception. Usually, delay analysis is done separately using queueing-theoretic arguments, whereas reliable information transmission is studied using information theory. In this thesis, we investigate these
two important aspects of data communication jointly by suitably combining models from
these two fields. In particular, we model scheduled communication of messages , that arrive in a random process, (i) over multiaccess channels, with either independent decoding or joint decoding, and (ii) over degraded broadcast channels. The scheduling policies proposed permit up to a certain maximum number of messages for simultaneous transmission.
In the first part of the thesis, we develop a multi-class discrete-time processor-sharing
queueing model, and then investigate the stability of this queue. In particular, we model the queue by a discrete-time Markov chain defined on a countable state space, and then establish (i) a sufficient condition for c-regularity of the chain, and hence positive recurrence and finiteness of stationary mean of the function c of the state, and (ii) a sufficient condition
for transience of the chain. These stability results form the basis for the conclusions drawn in the thesis.
The second part of the thesis is on multiaccess communication with random message
arrivals. In the context of independent decoding, we assume that messages can be classified into a fixed number of classes, each of which specifies a combination of received signal power, message length, and target probability of decoding error. Each message is encoded independently and decoded independently. In the context of joint decoding, we assume that messages can be classified into a fixed number of classes, each of which specifies a message
length, and for each of which there is a message queue. From each queue, some number of messages are encoded jointly, and received at a signal power corresponding to the queue. The messages are decoded jointly across all queues with a target probability of joint decoding error.
For both independent decoding and joint decoding, we derive respective discrete-
time multiclass processor-sharing queueing models assuming the corresponding information-theoretic models for the underlying communication process. Then, for both the decoding schemes, we (i) derive respective outer bounds to the stability region of message arrival rate vectors achievable by the class of stationary scheduling policies, (ii) show for any mes-
sage arrival rate vector that satisfies the outer bound, that there exists a stationary “state-independent” policy that results in a stable system for the corresponding message arrival process, and (iii) show that the stability region of information arrival rate vectors, in the
limit of large message lengths, equals an appropriate information-theoretic capacity region for independent decoding, and equals the information-theoretic capacity region for joint de-coding. For independent decoding, we identify a class of stationary scheduling policies, for which we show that the stability region in the limit of large maximum number of simultane-ous transmissions is independent of the received signal powers, and each of which achieves a
spectral efficiency of 1 nat/s/Hz in the limit of large message lengths.
In the third and last part of the thesis, we show that the queueing model developed for
multiaccess channels with joint decoding can be used to model communication over degraded
broadcast channels, with superposition encoding and successive decoding across all queues. We then show respective results (i), (ii), and (iii), stated above.

Implementação física de arquiteturas de hardware para a decodificação de vídeo digital segundo o padrão H.264/AVC / Physical implementation of hardware architectures for video decoding according to the H.264/AVC standardSilva, Leandro Max de Lima January 2010 (has links)
Recentemente, o Brasil adotou o padrão SBTVD (Sistema Brasileiro de TV Digital) para transmissão de TV digital. Este utiliza o CODEC (codificador e decodificador) de vídeo H.264/AVC, que é considerado o estado-da-arte no contexto de compressão de vídeo digital. Esta transição para o SBTVD requer o desenvolvimento de tecnologia para transmissão, recepção e decodificação de sinais, assim, o projeto Rede H.264 SBTVD foi iniciado e tem como um dos objetivos a produção de componentes de hardware para construção de um set-top box SoC (System on Chip) compatível com o SBTVD. No sentido de produzir IPs (Intellectual Property) para codificação e decodificação de vídeo digital segundo o padrão H.264/AVC, várias arquiteturas de hardware vêm sendo desenvolvidas no âmbito do projeto. Assim, o objetivo deste trabalho consiste na realização da implementação física em ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) de algumas destas arquiteturas de hardware para decodificação de vídeo H.264/AVC, entre elas as arquiteturas parser e decodificação de entropia, predição intra-quadro e, por fim, quantização e transformadas inversas, que juntas formam uma versão funcional de um decodificador de vídeo H.264 chamado de decodificador intra-only. Além destas, também foi fisicamente implementada uma arquitetura para o módulo filtro redutor de efeito de bloco e arquiteturas para os perfis Main e High de um compensador de movimentos. Nesta dissertação de mestrado, é apresentada a metodologia de implementação standard-cells (ASIC) utilizada, assim como uma descrição detalhada de cada passo executado para se chegar ao leiaute de cada uma das arquiteturas. Também são apresentados os resultados das implementações e realizadas algumas comparações com outras implementações de arquiteturas descritas na literatura. A implementação do filtro possui 43,9K portas lógicas (equivalent-gates), 42mW de potência e possui a menor quantidade de memória interna, 12,375KB SRAM, quando comparada com outras implementações para a mesma resolução de vídeo, 1920x1080@30fps. As implementações para os perfis Main e High do compensador de movimento apresentam a melhor relação entre a quantidade de ciclos de relógio necessária para interpolar um macrobloco (MB), 304 ciclos/MB, e a quantidade de equivalent-gates de cada implementação, 98K e 102K, respectivamente. Já a implementação do decodificador H.264 intra-only possui 5KB SRAM, 11,4mW de potência e apresenta a menor quantidade de equivalent-gates, 150K, comparado com outras implementações de decodificadores H.264 com características similares. / Recently Brazil has adopted the SBTVD (Brazilian Digital Television System) for digital TV transmission.

Constellation Constrained Capacity For Two-User Broadcast ChannelsDeshpande, Naveen 01 1900 (has links) (PDF)
A Broadcast Channel is a communication path between a single source and two or more receivers or users. The source intends to communicate independent information to the users. A particular case of interest is the Gaussian Broadcast Channel (GBC) where the noise at each user is additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). The capacity region of GBC is well known and the input to the channel is distributed as Gaussian. The capacity region of another special case of GBC namely Fading Broadcast Channel (FBC)was given in [Li and Goldsmith, 2001]and was shown that superposition of Gaussian codes is optimal for the FBC (treated as a vector degraded Broadcast Channel).
The capacity region obtained when the input to the channel is distributed uniformly over a finite alphabet(Constellation)is termed as Constellation Constrained(CC) capacity region [Biglieri 2005].
In this thesis the CC capacity region for two-user GBC and the FBC are obtained. In case of GBC the idea of superposition coding with input from finite alphabet and CC capacity was explored in [Hupert and Bossert, 2007]but with some limitations. When the participating individual signal sets are nearly equal i.e., given total average power constraint P the rate reward α (also the power sharing parameter) is approximately equal to 0.5, we show via simulation that with rotation of one of the signal sets by an appropriate angle the CC capacity region is maximally enlarged. We analytically derive the expression for optimal angle of rotation. In case of FBC a heuristic power allocation procedure called finite-constellation power allocation procedure is provided through which it is shown (via simulation)that the ergodic CC capacity region thus obtained completely subsumes the ergodic CC capacity region obtained by allocating power using the procedure given in[Li and Goldsmith, 2001].It is shown through simulations that rotating one of the signal sets by an optimal angle (obtained by trial and error method)for a given α maximally enlarges the ergodic CC capacity region when finite-constellation power allocation is used. An expression for determining the optimal angle of rotation for the given fading state, is obtained. And the effect of rotation is maximum around the region corresponding to α =0.5. For both GBC and FBC superposition coding is done at the transmitter and successive decoding is carried out at the receivers.
