Algorithms such as DES and ECC randomize the data such that un-authorized user cannot decrypt it .This thesis presents a practical implementation of a quasi group based multilevel, indexed scrambling transformation for use in signal encryption. Results of experiments with text and speech scrambling are presented. It is shown that the quasi group transformation maximizes the entropy at the output, which is desirable for a good system. This system provides extremely large group of …
Optimum Energy Allocation For Detection In Wireless Sensor Networks, Krishna Kishore Gunturu
Optimum Energy Allocation For Detection In Wireless Sensor Networks, Krishna Kishore Gunturu
LSU Master's Theses
The problem of binary hypothesis testing in a wireless sensor network is studied in the presence of noisy channels and for non-identical sensors. We have designed a mathematically tractable fusion rule for which optimal energy allocation for individual sensors can be achieved. In this thesis we considered two methods for transmitting the sensor observations; binary modulation and M-ary modulation. In binary modulation we are able to allocate the energy among the sensors and protect the individual quantized bits where as the M-ary modulation provides optimum energy allocation only among the sensors. The goal is to design a fusion rule and …
A Liquid Lens Based On Electrowetting, Jihwan Park
A Liquid Lens Based On Electrowetting, Jihwan Park
LSU Master's Theses
A primary goal of this work is to develop and characterize a novel liquid lens based on electrowetting. A droplet of silicone oil confined in an aqueous solution works as a lens. Electrowetting then controls the shape of the confined silicone oil, and the focal length may be varied upon an applied electric potential. The planar lens design is employed for easy integration of a lens system into a microfluidic device. The achievements of this work are to develop an electrowetting-based planar liquid lens without an off-the-plane electrode structure and to demonstrate the planar liquid lens with variable focal length …
Data Compression With Application To Geo-Location, William Perkins
Data Compression With Application To Geo-Location, William Perkins
LSU Master's Theses
A common way to locate an emitter within a wireless sensor network requires the estimation of time-difference-of-arrival (TDOA) parameters using data collected by a set of spatially separated sensors. Compressing the data that is shared among the sensors can provide tremendous savings in terms of the energy and transmission latency. Traditional MSE and perceptual based data compression schemes fail to accurately capture the effects of compression on the TDOA estimation task; therefore, it is necessary to investigate compression algorithms suitable for TDOA parameter estimation. This thesis explores the effects of data compression on TDOA parameter estimation accuracy. The first part …
A Novel Template Stage With Superior Alignment Capability For Nanoimprint And Step And Flash Lithography, Yunmi Jeon
A Novel Template Stage With Superior Alignment Capability For Nanoimprint And Step And Flash Lithography, Yunmi Jeon
LSU Master's Theses
The high-resolution capabilities of imprinting and step and flash lithography make these techniques strong contenders for the next generation lithography. Unfortunately, alignment remains an area of concern for nanoimprint because it must be completed before the template is moved into contact with the wafer. The large forces on the template during the process, even for step and flash, place additional demands on the stiffness as well as the reproducibility of the template stage. In this thesis, a prototype flexure stage has been developed to meet these demands. A compressive load, slightly below the Euler's limit, is used to produce relatively …

Power-Aware Design Methodologies For Fpga-Based Implementation Of Video Processing Systems, Hau Trung Ngo
Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The increasing capacity and capabilities of FPGA devices in recent years provide an attractive option for performance-hungry applications in the image and video processing domain. FPGA devices are often used as implementation platforms for image and video processing algorithms for real-time applications due to their programmable structure that can exploit inherent spatial and temporal parallelism. While performance and area remain as two main design criteria, power consumption has become an important design goal especially for mobile devices. Reduction in power consumption can be achieved by reducing the supply voltage, capacitances, clock frequency and switching activities in a circuit. Switching activities …
Neighborhood Defined Feature Selection Strategy For Improved Face Recognition In Different Sensor Modalitie, Satyanadh Gundimada
Neighborhood Defined Feature Selection Strategy For Improved Face Recognition In Different Sensor Modalitie, Satyanadh Gundimada
Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
A novel feature selection strategy for improved face recognition in images with variations due to illumination conditions, facial expressions, and partial occlusions is presented in this dissertation. A hybrid face recognition system that uses feature maps of phase congruency and modular kernel spaces is developed. Phase congruency provides a measure that is independent of the overall magnitude of a signal, making it invariant to variations in image illumination and contrast. A novel modular kernel spaces approach is developed and implemented on the phase congruency feature maps. Smaller sub-regions from a predefined neighborhood within the phase congruency images of the training …

Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
An extremely robust and novel scheme for computing three-dimensional, time-dependent potential distributions in full body bio-models is proposed, which, to the best of our knowledge, is the first of its kind. This simulation scheme has been developed to employ distributed computation resources, to achieve a parallelized numerical implementation for enhanced speed and memory capability. The other features of the numerical bio-model included in this dissertation research, are the ability to incorporate multiple electrodes of varying shapes and arbitrary locations. The parallel numerical tool also allows for user defined, current or potential stimuli as the excitation input. Using the available computation …
Modeling And Simulations Of Electrical Breakdown And Thermal Failure In Zinc Oxide And Titanium Dioxide For High-Voltage Dielectric Applications, Guogang Zhao
Electrical & Computer Engineering Theses & Dissertations
The development of transmission lines with higher energy storage capabilities is an important goal for compact pulsed power systems. In this context, ceramic dielectrics are promising candidates from the standpoint of high dielectric constants and breakdown strength. Though such materials look promising, their breakdown response characteristics have not been well studied, nor adequately understood. The electrical response of dielectrics also seems to depend on the internal structure and its granularity. For example, the breakdown strength of nano-crystalline insulators such as titania and zinc oxide have been observed to depend on the internal grain size. In general, the hold-off voltage increases …
Bismuth Surfactant Effects For Gaasn And Beryllium Doping Of Gaasn Grown By Molecular Beam Epitaxy, Ting Liu
Bismuth Surfactant Effects For Gaasn And Beryllium Doping Of Gaasn Grown By Molecular Beam Epitaxy, Ting Liu
Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Problem Reports
Bi was investigated as a possible surfactant for growth of GaAs1-xNx layers on (100) GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using an RF plasma nitrogen source. Bi extends the useable growth conditions producing smoother surfaces to a significantly higher N content than without Bi. The conductivity of Be-doped GaAsN decreased significantly with increasing N concentration. Temperature dependent Hall measurement suggests possible compensation and increased activation energy. SIMS and Raman measurements indicate that the N composition increased by introducing Be, and for low [N], Bi. The addition of Bi during growth of Be-doped GaAsN only produced semi-insulating layers.
GaAs1-xNx layers and …

A Busy-Tone Based Mac Scheme For Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Using Directional Antennas, Hong-Ning Dai, Kam-Wing Ng, Min-You Wu
Hong-Ning Dai
Applying directional antennas in wireless ad hoc networks offers numerous benefits, such as extended communication range, increased spatial reuse, improved capacity and suppressed interference. However, directional antennas can cause new location-dependent carrier sensing problems, such as new hidden terminal and deafness problems, which can cause severe penalties to the performance. Recently, a few schemes have been proposed to tackle these problems. However, these methods can provide limited solutions on the hidden terminal and deafness problems. We propose a new MAC protocol, termed the busy-tone based directional medium access control (BT-DMAC) protocol. When the transmission is in progress, the sender and …
