This thesis studies the Physical Layer (PHY) of the new IEEE 802.11acWireless Local Access Network (WLAN) standard. The 11ac is built basedon the 11n successful standard. The standard is expected to be completedby the end of 2013. And it promises a Very High Throughput (VHT),and robust communication. In order to achieve that, the 11ac uses morebandwidth, it employs higher numbers of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO) spatial streams, and higher orders of modulations. The 11ac PHYframe structure is studied in details. The transmitter and receiver blocks areexplained and implemented by MATLAB. Bit Error Rate (BER) and ErrorVector Magnitude (EVM) simulations of the PHY were run. The effectof different Modulation and Coding Scheme (MCS), and bandwidths werestudied. The performance of MIMO and Space-Time Block Coding (STBC)was investigated. The simulation results shows how the 11ac benefits fromthe new employed features. The created MATLAB simulation program canbe used for further tests and research.

The “WLAN in Disaster Emergency Response” (WIDER) project has developed and implemented an emergency communication system. It provides network and communication services to relief organizations. In order to guarantee the stable and efficient connectivity with a high quality of service (QoS) for the end user, and to make the WIDER system more adaptive to the disaster area, the IEEE 802.16 specification based broadband wireless access solution is adopted. This thesis work aims at evaluating and testing the WIDER system integrated with WiMAX. By learning and analyzing the technology, the benefits and perspective for WIDER using WiMAX are described. A WiMAX solution was configured and integrated into the WIDER system. A series of tests and measurements provide us the performance of the WiMAX solution in throughput, QoS, and reality. The tests helped us to learn and verify the improvements for WIDER due to WiMAX. / “WLAN in Disaster Emergency Response” (WIDER) projektet har utvecklat och implementerat ett kommunikationssystem för katastrof situationer.

The demand for accurate localization under indoor environments has increased dramatically in recent years. To be cost-effective, most of the localization solutions are based on the WiFi signals, utilizing the pervasive deployment of WiFi infrastructure and availability of the WiFi enabled mobile devices. In this thesis, we develop completed indoor localization solutions based on WiFi fingerprinting and machine learning approaches with two types of WiFi fingerprints including received signal strength indicator (RSSI) and channel state information (CSI). Starting from the low complexity algorithm, we propose a soft range limited K nearest neighbours (SRL-KNN) to address spatial ambiguity and the fluctuation of WiFi signals. SRL-KNN exploits RSSI and scales the fingerprint distance by a range factor related to the physical distance between the user’s previous position and the reference location in the database. Although utilizing the prior locations, SRL-KNN does not require knowledge of the exact moving speed and direction of the user. Besides, the idea of the soft range limiting factor can be applied to all of the existed probabilistic methods, i.e., parametric and nonparametric methods, to improve their performances. A semi-sequential short term memory step is proposed to add to the existed probabilistic methods to reduce their spatial ambiguity of fingerprints and boost significantly their localization accuracy. In the following research phase, instead of locating user's position one at a time as in the cases of conventional algorithms, our recurrent neuron networks (RNNs) solution aims at trajectory positioning and takes into account of the relation among RSSI measurements in a trajectory. The results using different types of RNN including vanilla RNN, long short-term memory (LSTM), gated recurrent unit (GRU) and bidirectional LSTM (BiLSTM) are presented. Next, the problem of localization using only one single router is analysed. CSI information will be adopted along with RSSI to enhance the localization accuracy. Each of the reference point (RP) is presented by a group of CSI measurements from several WiFi subcarriers which we call CSI images. The combination of convolutional neural network (CNN) and LSTM model is proposed. CNN extracts the useful information from several CSI values (CSI images), and then LSTM will exploit this information in sequential timesteps to determine the user's location. Finally, a fully practical passive indoor localization is proposed. Most of the conventional methods rely on the collected WiFi signal on the mobile devices (active information), which requires a dedicated software to be installed. Different from them, we leverage the received data of the routers (passive information) to locate the position of the user. The localization accuracy is investigated through experiments with several phones, e.g., Nexus 5, Samsung, Iphone and HTC, in hundreds of testing locations. The experimental results demonstrate that our proposed localization scheme achieves an average localization error of around 1.5 m when the phone is in idle mode, and approximately 1 m when it actively transmits data. / Graduate

This thesis deals with the monitoring of wireless nets in terrain. The author will be browsing terrain and there will be extracted some information about accessible wireless nets. For parameters of wireless nets we consider for example the name of wireless net, signal strength, type of security etc. These parameters (of wireless nets and position) are going to be recorded and saved into the database. Using this database it will be possible to perform some further operations like generation maps of wireless networks or detection positions of access points, etc..
