Multi-Layer Utilization Of Beamforming In Millimeter Wave Mimo Systems, Mustafa S. Aljumaily Dec 2020

Multi-Layer Utilization Of Beamforming In Millimeter Wave Mimo Systems, Mustafa S. Aljumaily

Doctoral Dissertations

mmWave frequencies ranging between (30-300GHz) have been considered the perfect solution to the scarcity of bandwidth in the traditional sub-6GHz band and to the ever increasing demand of many emerging applications in today's era. 5G and beyond standards are all considering the mmWave as an essential part of there networks. Beamforming is one of the most important enabling technologies for the mmWave to compensate for the huge propagation lose of these frequencies compared to the sub-6GHz frequencies and to ensure better spatial and spectral utilization of the mmWave channel space. In this work, we tried to develop different techniques to …


Leveraging Conventional Internet Routing Protocol Behavior To Defeat Ddos And Adverse Networking Conditions, Jared M. Smith Aug 2020

Leveraging Conventional Internet Routing Protocol Behavior To Defeat Ddos And Adverse Networking Conditions, Jared M. Smith

Doctoral Dissertations

The Internet is a cornerstone of modern society. Yet increasingly devastating attacks against the Internet threaten to undermine the Internet's success at connecting the unconnected. Of all the adversarial campaigns waged against the Internet and the organizations that rely on it, distributed denial of service, or DDoS, tops the list of the most volatile attacks. In recent years, DDoS attacks have been responsible for large swaths of the Internet blacking out, while other attacks have completely overwhelmed key Internet services and websites. Core to the Internet's functionality is the way in which traffic on the Internet gets from one destination …
