Distributed And Centralized Iterative Detection Of Self-Encoded Spread Spectrum In Multi-Channel Communication, Liang Chi, Won Mee Jang, Lim Nguyen Jun 2012

Distributed And Centralized Iterative Detection Of Self-Encoded Spread Spectrum In Multi-Channel Communication, Liang Chi, Won Mee Jang, Lim Nguyen

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Faculty Publications (to 2015)

We propose self-encoded spread spectrum with two different iterative detection methods in multi-channel communication. The centralized iterative detection outperforms the iterative detection distributed over multiple channels. The results show that self-encoded spread spectrum with the centralized iterative detection is an excellent candidate for cognitive radio network.

A Cross-Layer Design For The Performance Improvement Of Real-Time Video Transmission Of Secondary Users Over Cognitive Radio Networks, Haiyan Luo, Song Ci, Dalei Wu

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering: Faculty Publications (to 2015)

Cognitive radio (CR) has been proposed as a promising solution to improve connectivity, self-adaptability, and efficiency of spectrum usage. When used in video applications, user-perceived video quality experienced by secondary users is a very important performance metric to evaluate the effectiveness of CR technologies. However, most of the current research only considers spectrum utilization and effectiveness at medium access control (MAC) and physical layers, ignoring the system performance of the upper layers. Therefore, in this paper, we aim to improve the user experience of secondary users for wireless video services over CR networks. We propose a quality-driven cross-layer optimized system …
