An amplitude modulated laser rangefinder : electronic circuit design and implementationNaser, Fazel, Morin, Stefan January 2022 (has links)
This report describes the design and implementation of a prototype for an amplitude modulated laser rangefinder, which is made on a PCB consisting of a laser module emitting light, a photodiode receiving the light reflected from the target, and other components. The design is made for the different power levels, generation of the modulation output and the reception of the signal. The sinusoidal wave is generated with an oscillator circuit and filtered out to produce a pure sine signal. The system requires different voltage levels and current values, which is done with DC-DC converters. Finally, a receiver circuit is implemented to detect the modulation, which needs a device that transfers light energy into voltage. Many tests have been made to optimize the analog circuit for a stable output. The prototype was created as a PCB design with a laser module and a photodiode mounted on it. In the end, satisfactory results were obtained up to the receiving part, however, the prototype was tested with an external circuit for light detection. There is considerable room for improvement, e.g., signal sampling, working receiver and use of standard voltage levels, but this thesis intends to provide a basis for future work.

On the Impact of Channel and Channel Quality Estimation on Adaptive ModulationJain, Payal 20 December 2002 (has links)
The rapid growth in wireless communications has given rise to an increasing demand for channel capacity using limited bandwidth. Wireless channels vary over time due to fading and changing interference conditions. Typical wireless systems are designed by choosing a modulation scheme to meet worst case conditions and thus rely on power control to adapt to changing channel conditions. Adaptive modulation, however, exploits these channel variations to improve the spectral efficiency of wireless communications by intelligently changing the modulation scheme based on channel conditions. Necessarily, among the modulation schemes used are spectrally efficient modulation schemes such as quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) techniques.
QAM yields the high spectral efficiency due to its use of amplitude as well as phase modulation and therefore is an effective technique for achieving high channel capacity. The main drawbacks of QAM modulation are its reduced energy efficiency (as compared to standard QPSK) and its sensitivity to channel amplitude variations. Adaptive modulation attempts to address the first drawback by using more energy efficient schemes in low SNR conditions are reserving the use of QAM for high SNR conditions. The second drawback leads to a requirement of high quality channel estimation. Many researchers have studied pilot symbol assisted modulation for compensating the effects of fading at the receiver. A main contribution of this thesis is the investigation of different channel estimation techniques (along with the effect of pilot symbol spacing and Doppler spread) on the performance of adaptive modulation.
Another important parameter affecting adaptive modulation is the signal-to-noise ratio. In order to adapt modulation efficiently, it is essential to have accurate knowledge of the channel signal-to-noise ratio. The performance of adaptive modulation depends directly on how well the channel SNR is estimated. The more accurate the estimation of the channel SNR is, the better the choice of modulation scheme becomes, and the better the ability to exploit the variations in the wireless channel is. The second main contribution of this thesis is the investigation of the impact of SNR estimation techniques on the performance and spectral efficiency of adaptive modulation. Further, we investigate the impact of various channel conditions on SNR estimation and the resulting impact on the performance of adaptive modulation. Finally, we investigate long term SNR estimation, its use in adaptive modulation and present a comparison between the two approaches / Master of Science

Signal design for multi-way relay channelsSharifian, Shaham 20 December 2016 (has links)
Today’s communication systems are in need of spectrally efficient and high throughput
techniques more than ever because of high data rate applications and the scarcity
and expense of bandwidth. To cope with increased data rate demands, more base
stations are needed which is not cost and energy efficient in cellular networks. It
has been shown that wireless relay networks can provide higher network throughput
and increase power efficiency with low complexity and cost. Furthermore, network
resources can be utilized more efficiently by using network coding in relay networks.
A wireless relay network in which multiple nodes exchange information with the
help of relay node(s) is called a multi-way relay channel (MWRC). MWRCs are
expected to be an integral part of next generation wireless standards. The main
focus of this dissertation is the investigation of transmission schemes in an MWRC to
improve the throughput and error performance. An MWRC with full data exchange
is assumed in which a half-duplex relay station (RS) is the enabler of communication.
One of the challenges with signal demodulation in MWRCs is the existence of
ambiguous points in the received constellation. The first part of this dissertation
investigates a transmission scheme for full data exchange in MWRC that benefits from
these points and improves its throughput by 33% compared to traditional relaying.
Then an MWRC is considered where a RS assists multiple nodes to exchange messages.
A different approach is taken to avoid ambiguous points in the superposition of
user symbols at the relay. This can be achieved by employing complex field network
coding (CFNC) which results in full data exchange in two communication phases.
CFNC may lead to small Euclidean distances between constellation points, resulting
in poor error performance. To improve this performance, the optimal user precoding
values are derived such that the power efficiency of the relay constellation is highest
when channel state information is available at the users. The error performance of
each user is then analyzed and compared with other relaying schemes.
Finally, focusing on the uplink of multi-way relay systems, the performance of an
MWRC is studied in which users can employ arbitrary modulation schemes and the
links between the users and the relay have different gains, e.g. Rayleigh fading. Analytical
expressions for the exact average pairwise error probability of these MWRCs
are derived. The probability density function (PDF) and the mean of the minimum
Euclidean distance of the relay constellation are closely approximated, and a tight
upper bound on the symbol error probability is developed. / Graduate

Architectures d'alimentation et de commande des actionneurs haute-vitesse connectés aux réseaux avioniques à tension variable / Electronic power supply and control architectures of a high speed actuator connected to variable voltage aircraft networksCuenot, Jérémy 25 October 2017 (has links)
La révolution technologique majeure des nouveaux aéronefs repose sur une électrification intensive de nombreux constituants de l'appareil et le fait que la vitesse des génératrices électriques n'est plus fixe mais variable. Cette nouvelle manière de générer la puissance électrique engendre des variations de tension sur les réseaux DC. De plus, pour accroître la compacité des Machines Synchrones à Aimants Permanents (MSAP) à puissance donnée, on augmente autant que possible leur vitesse d'entrainement, en les associant pour certaines applications à des réducteurs mécaniques. La variation du niveau de tension du bus DC alimentant une MSAP haute vitesse implique son dimensionnement afin d'assurer sa contrôlabilité sur toute la plage de vitesse reportant d'importantes contraintes sur l'onduleur de tension. Pour pallier ce problème, une solution consiste à intercaler un convertisseur DC/DC entre le filtre d'entrée et l'onduleur de tension pour maintenir la tension DC d'entrée de l'onduleur à une valeur adaptée au fonctionnement de la MSAP et optimiser son dimensionnement. Cependant, cette solution augmente l'ordre du système, ce qui accroît la complexité de son contrôle, accentuée par les contraintes liées à la nature haute-fréquence des MSAP considérées.Les travaux menés dans cette thèse concernent l'étude, l'optimisation et le contrôle des structures d'alimentation des actionneurs haute vitesse connectés aux réseaux DC avioniques à tension variable. Il en résulte que pour les applications avioniques considérées, ces architectures d'alimentation intégrant un convertisseur DC/DC supplémentaire permettent de réduire sa masse et son volume sans dégrader le rendement global de la chaîne de conversion notamment avec les convertisseurs à source impédante qui permettent de supprimer structurellement les ondulations de courant en entrée du convertisseur. De plus, des stratégies de commande Pulse Amplitude Modulation employées avec des architectures de contrôle non-linéaires (platitude, passivité) permettent d'assurer le contrôle de ces MSAP haute-vitesse tout en assurant leur stabilité sur toute la plage de fonctionnement / The main technological revolution of the new aircrafts is based on intensive electrification of many components of the aircraft. Moreover, the speed of electrical generators is no longer fixed but variable. This new way of generating electrical power generates voltage variations on DC networks. Besides, to increase the compactness of the Permanent Magnet Synchronous Machines (PMSM) at a given power, their mechanical speed is increased as much as possible by combining them with mechanical reducers for certain applications. The variation of the voltage level of the DC bus supplying a high-speed PMSM implies its sizing in order to ensure its controllability over the entire speed range which carries significant stresses on the Voltage Source Inverter (VSI). To solve this problem, one solution consists in adding an extra DC / DC converter between the input filter and the VSI to maintain the inverter input voltage at a value adapted to the operating point of the PMSM and to optimize its dimensioning. However, this solution increases the order of the system, which increases the complexity of its control, accentuated by the constraints related to the high-frequency nature of the PMSMs considered. The work carried out in this thesis concerns the study, the optimization and the control of the power supply architecture of the high-speed actuators connected to variable-voltage avionic DC networks. As a result, for the avionics applications considered, these power supply architectures integrating an additional DC / DC converter make it possible to reduce the mass and the volume of the power supply structure without degrading the overall efficiency of the conversion chain, in particular by using the impedance-source converters which allow to cancel the DC input current ripples. In addition, Pulse Amplitude Modulation (PAM) control strategies used with non-linear control architectures (flatness, passivity) make it possible to control these high-speed PMSMs while ensuring their stability over the entire operating range

Performance Analysis and PAPR Reduction Techniques for Filter-Bank based Multi-Carrier Systems with Non-Linear Power Amplifiers / Réduction du PAPR pour les systèmes utilisant la modulation FBMC/OQAM en présence d’amplificateur de puissance non linéaireBulusu, Sri Satish Krishna Chaitanya 29 April 2016 (has links)
Cette thèse a été effectuée dans le cadre du projet européen FP7 EMPHATIC (Enhanced Multicarrier Techniques for Professional Ad-Hoc and Cell-Based Communications). Plusieurs universités européennes et deux partenaires industriels: THALES Communications Security et CASSIDIAN ont participé à ce projet. L'objectif de ce projet est de développer, d'évaluer et de démontrer les apports des techniques multi-porteuses avancées, permettant une meilleure utilisation des bandes de fréquences radio existantes en fournissant des services de données à large bande, en coexistence avec les services traditionnels à bande étroite. Le projet porte sur l'application de radiocommunications mobiles professionnelles (Professional Mobile Radio : PMR). L'idée principale de ce projet est d'analyser la viabilité des systèmes à large bande utilisant des bancs de filtres (Filter Bank Multi Carrier : FBMC) conjointement avec une modulation d'amplitude en quadrature avec décalage (Offset Quadrature Amplitude Modulation : OQAM) dans le cadre de la 5ème génération (5G) des systèmes radio-mobiles. La modulation FBMC-OQAM se positionne comme candidate potentielle pour les futurs systèmes de communication. Cette modulation avancée offre de nombreux avantages tels que l’excellente localisation fréquentielle de sa densité spectrale de puissance (DSP), une robustesse au bruit de phase, aux décalages de fréquence ainsi qu’à l’asynchronisme entre les utilisateurs. Ces atouts, la rendent plus attrayant qu’OFDM pour l’application PMR, la radio cognitive (CR) et la 5G. Cependant, comme toute autre technique de modulation muti-porteuses, FBMC-OQAM souffre d’un facteur de crête ou d’un PAPR (pour Peak to Average Power Ratio) élevé. Lorsque l'amplificateur de puissance (AP), utilisé au niveau de l’émetteur, est opéré proche de sa zone non-linéaire (NL), ce qui est le cas dans la pratique, la bonne localisation fréquentielle de la DSP du système FBMC/OQAM est sérieusement compromise, en raison des remontées spectrales. Le premier objectif de cette thèse est de prédire l'étendue des remontées spectrales dans les systèmes FBMC-OQAM, introduites par la non-linéarité AP. Le deuxième objectif de ce travail est de proposer des techniques, pour les systèmes FBMC-OQAM, permettant la réduction du PAPR et la linéarisation de l’AP, afin d'atténuer les effets NL. L’utilisation des cumulants, a permis de prédire les remontées spectrales pour les signaux FBMC-OQAM après amplification NL. En outre, certains algorithmes de réduction du PAPR, basées sur des approches probabilistes et des techniques d'ajout de signaux, ont été proposés. La capacité de coexistence du système à large bande utilisant FBMC-OQAM avec des systèmes PMR à bande étroite en présence de PA a été analysée et il a été démontré que la coexistence est possible, à condition qu'il y est une bonne combinaison entre le recul du signal à l’entrée de l’AP (Input Back-Off : IBO), la réduction du PAPR et la linéarisation de l’AP. Enfin, une nouvelle technique de linéarisation de l’AP a été proposée pour le système FBMC-OQAM. / This thesis is part of the European FP7 EMPHATIC project (Enhanced Multicarrier Techniques for Professional Ad-Hoc and Cell-Based Communications) including various European universities and two main industrial partners: THALES Communications Security and CASSIDIAN. The EMPHATIC objective is to develop, evaluate and demonstrate the capability of enhanced multi-carrier techniques to make better use of the existing radio frequency bands in providing broadband data services in coexistence with narrowband legacy services. The project addresses the Professional Mobile Radio (PMR) application. The main idea is to analyze the viability of broadband systems based on filter-bank multi-carrier (FBMC) clubbed with o ffset quadrature amplitude modulation (OQAM) in the context of the future 5th Generation (5G) radio access technology (RAT). Increasingly, the FBMC-OQAM systems are gaining appeal in the probe for advanced multi-carrier modulation (MCM) waveforms for future communication systems. This advanced modulation scheme o ers numerous advantages such as excellent frequency localization in its power spectral density (PSD), a robustness to phase noise, frequency off sets and also to the multi-user asynchronism; making it more appealing than OFDM for PMR, cognitive radio (CR) and 5G RAT. However, like any other MCM technique, FBMC-OQAM suff ers from high PAPR. When the power amplifi er (PA) non-linearity, which is realistic radio-frequency impairment, is taken into account; the good frequency localization property is severely compromised, due to the spectral regrowth. The first objective of this PhD thesis is, to predict the extent of the spectral regrowth in FBMC-OQAM systems, due to the PA non-linearity. The second objective is to probe techniques for FBMC-OQAM systems, such as PAPR reduction and PA linearization, in order to mitigate the NL eff ects of PA. By cumulant analysis, spectral regrowth prediction has been done for FBMC-OQAM systems. Also, some algorithms for PAPR reduction, which are based on probabilistic approach and adding signal methods, have been proposed. The coexistence capability of the FBMC-OQAM based broadband system with the narrowband PMR systems in the presence of PA has been analyzed and it has been found that coexistence is possible, provided there is a symbiotic combination of PA Input Back-off (IBO), PAPR reduction and PA linearization. Finally, a novel PA linearization technique has been proposed for FBMC-OQAM.

Error resilient video communications using high level M-QAM : modelling and simulation of a comparative analysis of a dual-priority M-QAM transmission system for H.264/AVC video applications over band-limited and error-phone channelsAbdurrhman, Ahmed B. M. January 2010 (has links)
An experimental investigation of an M level (M = 16, 64 and 256) Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) transmission system suitable for video transmission is presented. The communication system is based on layered video coding and unequal error protection to make the video bitstream robust to channel errors. An implementation is described in which H.264 video is protected unequally by partitioning the compressed data into two layers of different visual importance. The partition scheme is based on a separation of the group of pictures (GoP) in the intra-coded frame (I-frame) and predictive coded frame (P frame). This partition scheme is then applied to split the H.264-coded video bitstream and is suitable for Constant Bit Rate (CBR) transmission. Unequal error protection is based on uniform and non-uniform M-QAM constellations in conjunction with different scenarios of splitting the transmitted symbol for protection of the more important information of the video data; different constellation arrangements are proposed and evaluated to increase the capacity of the high priority layer. The performance of the transmission system is evaluated under Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh fading conditions. Simulation results showed that in noisy channels the decoded video can be improved by assigning a larger portion of the video data to the enhancement layer in conjunction with non-uniform constellation arrangements; in better channel conditions the quality of the received video can be improved by assigning more bits in the high priority channel and using uniform constellations. The aforementioned varying conditions can make the video transmission more successful over error-prone channels. Further techniques were developed to combat various channel impairments by considering channel coding methods suitable for layered video coding applications. It is shown that a combination of non-uniform M-QAM and forward error correction (FEC) will yield a better performance. Additionally, antenna diversity techniques are examined and introduced to the transmission system that can offer a significant improvement in the quality of service of mobile video communication systems in environments that can be modelled by a Rayleigh fading channel.

Phase Noise Tolerant Modulation Formats and DSP Algorithms for Coherent Optical SystemsRodrigo Navarro, Jaime January 2017 (has links)
Coherent detection together with multilevel modulation formats has the potential to significantly increase the capacity of existing optical communication systems at no extra cost in signal bandwidth. However, these modulation formats are more susceptible to the impact of different noise sources and distortions as the distance between its constellation points in the complex plane reduces with the modulation index. In this context, digital signal processing (DSP) plays a key role as it allows compensating for the impairments occurring during signal generation, transmission and/or detection relaxing the complexity of the overall system. The transition towards pluggable optical transceivers, offers flexibility for network design/upgrade but sets strict requirements on the power consumption of the DSP thus limiting its complexity. The DSP module complexity however, scales with the modulation order and, in this scenario, low complex yet high performance DSP algorithms are highly desired. In this thesis, we mainly focus on the impact of laser phase noise arising from the transmitter and local oscillator (LO) lasers in coherent optical communication systems employing high order modulation formats. In these systems, the phase noise of the transmitting and LO lasers translate into phase noise in the received constellation impeding the proper recovery of the transmitted data. In order to increase the system phase noise tolerance, we firstly explore the possibility of re-arranging the constellation points in a circularly shaped mQAM (C-mQAM) constellation shape to exploit its inherent phase noise tolerance. Different low-complex carrier phase recovery (CPR) schemes applicable to these constellations are proposed along with a discussion on its performance and implementation complexity. Secondly, the design guidelines of high performance and low complex CPR schemes for conventional square mQAM constellations are presented. We identify the inherent limitation of the state-of-the-art blind phase search (BPS) carrier phase recovery algorithm which hinders its achievable performance and implementation complexity and present a low complex solution to overcome it. The design guidelines of multi-stage CPR schemes for high order modulation formats, where the BPS algorithm is employed at any of the stages, are also provided and discussed. Finally, the interplay between the received dispersed signal and the LO phase noise is analytically investigated to characterize the origin of the equalization enhanced phase noise phenomena. / <p>QC 20170516</p> / EU project ICONE, gr. #608099

Caractérisation par microscopie à force atomique des arrangements protéine/sucre impliquant la lectine PA-IL de la bactérie pseudomonas aeruginosa / Characterisation by atomic force microscopy of protein/glycocluster arrangement involving lectin PA-IL of pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteriaSicard, Delphine 26 November 2012 (has links)
La bactérie Pseudomonas aeruginosa est un pathogène opportuniste responsable de graves infections chez les personnes affaiblies immunitairement. Présentant des souches résistantes aux antibiotiques, une nouvelle approche thérapeutique est en cours de développement avec pour objectif l’inhibition des facteurs de virulence de la bactérie. Lors de son processus d’infection, le pathogène utilise les lectines pour reconnaître et se lier de manière spécifique aux glycoconjugués des cellules-hôtes en formant une interaction lectine/glycoconjugué. Plus particulièrement, la lectine PA-IL, spécifique du galactose, a été étudiée. A l’aide de glycomimétique, il semble possible de bloquer l’action de la lectine en créant une interaction lectine/glycomimétique. Pour développer cette approche, de nombreux glycocluster sont donc été élaborés et leur affinité avec la lectine PA-IL a été évaluée par plusieurs méthodes de caractérisation (SPR, HIA, ELLA, puce à sucre,…).Dans ce projet de thèse, nous avons cherché à visualiser par microscopie à force atomique (AFM) l’arrangement des complexes lectine PA-IL/glycocluster formés pour trois glycoclusters différents. Nous avons ainsi pu montrer l’influence du cœur du glycocluster et des bras-espaceurs sur l’arrangement des complexes. Suivant le glycocluster, l’arrangement prend la forme de filaments 1D,de structures dentelées avec des bras sinueux ou encore de larges structures compactes. Dans le cas des filaments, la résolution de nos images AFM nous a permis d’identifier les lectines à l’intérieur même de la structure filaire. Nous avons aussi démontré, en observant les lectines seules, l’existence d’une interaction lectine/lectine. De plus, des expériences ont été menées pour déterminer les conditions expérimentales appropriées à leur observation à l’air et en milieu liquide. / The bacterium P. aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen responsible for serious infections in immunocompromised patients. It also develops some strains resistant to antibiotics. A new approach is developed to inhibit virulence factors of the bacterium. During the process of infection, the pathogen uses lectins to recognize and bind specifically to glycoconjugates of the host cells forming alectin/glycoconjugate complex. Particularly, the lectin PA-IL, specific to galactose, was studied. Using glycomimetics, it seems possible to block the action of the lectin by creating lectin/glycomimetic interaction. To develop this approach, many glycoclusters were designed and their affinity with lectin PA-IL was evaluated by various characterization techniques (SPR, HIA, ELLA, microarrays,…).In this thesis project, we have tried to visualize by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) the arrangement of lectin PA-IL/glycocluster complexes with three different glycoclusters. Our results show the influence of the glycocluster core and the linker on the arrangement of complexes. Depending on glycocluster, the arrangement takes the form of 1D filaments, 2D "pinked" structures with sinuous branches or large compact structures. In the case of filaments, the resolution of AFM images allows us to identify lectins along the filament. We also demonstrated the existence of lectin/lectin interactions at high concentration of lectin. In addition, some experiments were performed to determine sample preparation techniques to observe lectins in air and in liquid.

The effects of a variation in the coding parameter offset of the PPM modulation, that is, in the displacement of the input pulse relative to the reference time level, was investigated. In the second application, the symmetric dual-core NLDC is submitted to PAM modulation, using the four possible combinations for two pulses on the input fibers, were used, as well. The effects of a variation in the coding parameter offset of the PAM modulation relative to the reference amplitude, was investigated. The modulated output amplitude versus a phase difference between the input pulses , was also studied. On the two applications, logical gates AND and OR was observed.

Analysis Of A Sieving Heuristic For The Number Field Sieve And Design Of Low-Correlation CDMA SequencesGarg, Gagan 06 1900 (has links)
In this thesis, we investigate in detail, certain important problems in cryptography and coding theory.
In the first part of this thesis, we discuss the number field sieve and compare the two ways in which the sieving step is implemented -one method using the line sieve and the other using the lattice sieve. We discuss why the lattice sieve performs better than the line sieve in the presence of large primes -this has not been attempted before.
In the second part of this thesis, we design low-correlation CDMA sequences over the Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) alphabet. The sequences proposed in this thesis have the lowest value of the maximum correlation parameter as compared to any other family in the literature.
In the third part of this thesis, we design large families of optimal two-dimensional optical orthogonal codes for optical CDMA. The size of these codes is larger than any other code in the literature.
