Energy Efficient Routing Protocols For Mobile Ad Hoc Networks, Chansu Yu, Ben Lee, Hee Yong Youn Dec 2003

Energy Efficient Routing Protocols For Mobile Ad Hoc Networks, Chansu Yu, Ben Lee, Hee Yong Youn

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Although establishing correct and efficient routes is an important design issue in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs), a more challenging goal is to provide energy efficient routes because mobile nodes' operation time is the most critical limiting factor. This article surveys and classifies the energy-aware routing protocols proposed for MANETs. They minimize either the active communication energy required to transmit or receive packets or the inactive energy consumed when a mobile node stays idle but listens to the wireless medium for any possible communication requests from other nodes. Transmission power control approach and load distribution approach belong to the former …

Oci-Based Group Communication Support In Corba, Dongman Lee, Dukyun Nam, Hee Yong Youn, Chansu Yu Nov 2003

Oci-Based Group Communication Support In Corba, Dongman Lee, Dukyun Nam, Hee Yong Youn, Chansu Yu

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Group communication is a useful mechanism guaranteeing consistency among replicated objects. The existing approaches do not allow transparent plug-in of group communication protocols into CORBA. They either require modification of CORBA or OS, or provide no room for incorporating group communication transport protocols into CORBA. We thus propose a generic group communication framework that allows transparent plug-in of various group communication protocols with no modification of existing CORBA. We extend the open communications interface (OCI) to support interoperability, reusability of existing group communication, and independency on ORB and OS. We also define the group communication inter-ORB protocol (GCIOP) as a …

Kalman Filtering For Fuzzy Discrete Time Dynamic Systems, Daniel J. Simon Nov 2003

Kalman Filtering For Fuzzy Discrete Time Dynamic Systems, Daniel J. Simon

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

This paper uses Kalman filter theory to design a state estimator for noisy discrete time Takagi–Sugeno (T–S) fuzzy models. One local filter is designed for each local linear model using standard Kalman filter theory. Steady state solutions can be found for each of the local filters. Then a linear combination of the local filters is used to derive a global filter. The local filters are time-invariant, which greatly reduces the computational complexity of the global filter. The global filter is shown to be unbiased and (under certain conditions) stable. In addition, under the approximation of uncorrelatedness among the local models, …

M-Ary Amplitude Shift Keying Ofdm System, Fuqin Xiong Oct 2003

M-Ary Amplitude Shift Keying Ofdm System, Fuqin Xiong

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Coherent M-ary amplitude-shift keying (MASK) is proposed for use in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. The frequency separation between subcarriers is only 1/2T instead of 1/T. With a slightly wider bandwidth, an √M-ary ASK OFDM can achieve the same bit-error rate (BER) of M-ary quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) OFDM and a better BER than that of M-ary phase-shift keying (MPSK) OFDM. The √M-ary ASK OFDM has the same peak-to-average-power ratio as that of the M-ary QAM OFDM. The MASK OFDM can be implemented digitally and efficiently by fast cosine transform and demodulated by inverse fast cosine transform. Comparisons show that …

A Novel Method For Measuring Induction Machine Magnetizing Inductance, Ana Vladan Stankovic, Eric L. Benedict, Vinod John, Thomas A. Lipo Sep 2003

A Novel Method For Measuring Induction Machine Magnetizing Inductance, Ana Vladan Stankovic, Eric L. Benedict, Vinod John, Thomas A. Lipo

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

This paper presents a novel method for measuring the magnetizing inductance of an induction machine. The approach uses a static DC excitation technique which can be employed whenever the neutral of the machine is accessible. The proposed method measures only the magnetizing inductance and not the self inductance which normally includes the effect of the stator leakage inductance. Because this test uses a DC excitation, the iron losses in the motor are considerably reduced as well and minimally influence the measurement when compared to the traditional 60-Hz no-load test. By using the proposed method for measuring only the magnetizing inductance, …

Coding, Decoding, And Recovery Of Clock Synchronization In Digital Multiplexing System, Hansheng Wang, Xiaoyi Qin, Lieguang Zeng, Fuqin Xiong May 2003

Coding, Decoding, And Recovery Of Clock Synchronization In Digital Multiplexing System, Hansheng Wang, Xiaoyi Qin, Lieguang Zeng, Fuqin Xiong

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

High-speed broadband digital communication networks rely on digital multiplexing technology where clock synchronization, including processing, transmission, and recovery of the clock, is the critical technique. This paper interprets the process of clock synchronization in multiplexing systems as quantizing and coding the information of clock synchronization, interprets clock justification as timing sigma-delta modulation (TΔ-ΣM), and interprets the jitter of justification as quantization error. As a result, decreasing the quantization error is equivalent to decreasing the jitter of justification. Using this theory, the paper studies the existing jitter-reducing techniques in transmitters and receivers, presents some techniques that can decrease the quantization error …

Isomorphic Strategy For Processor Allocation In K-Ary N-Cube Systems, Moonsoo Kang, Chansu Yu, Hee Yong Youn, Ben Lee, Myungchul Kim May 2003

Isomorphic Strategy For Processor Allocation In K-Ary N-Cube Systems, Moonsoo Kang, Chansu Yu, Hee Yong Youn, Ben Lee, Myungchul Kim

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Due to its topological generality and flexibility, the k-ary n-cube architecture has been actively researched for various applications. However, the processor allocation problem has not been adequately addressed for the k-ary n-cube architecture, even though it has been studied extensively for hypercubes and meshes. The earlier k-ary n-cube allocation schemes based on conventional slice partitioning suffer from internal fragmentation of processors. In contrast, algorithms based on job-based partitioning alleviate the fragmentation problem but require higher time complexity. This paper proposes a new allocation scheme based on isomorphic partitioning, where the processor space is partitioned into higher dimensional isomorphic subcubes. The …

An All-Digital Clock-Smoothing Technique—Counting-Prognostication, Xiaoyi Qin, Hansheng Wang, Lieguang Zeng, Fuqin Xiong Feb 2003

An All-Digital Clock-Smoothing Technique—Counting-Prognostication, Xiaoyi Qin, Hansheng Wang, Lieguang Zeng, Fuqin Xiong

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

This article presents a novel universal all-digital clock-smoothing technique - counting-prognostication. Operation principles, performance analysis, and comparisons are given. Analysis and measurement results show that this technique can efficiently smooth jitter and wander for a wide pull-in range and pull-out range, and jitter accumulation is small. A cycle-varying counting-prognostication method, which decreases pull-in time, is also suggested.

Corp - A Method Of Concatenation And Optimization For Resource Reservation Path In Mobile Internet, Kyounghee Lee, Myungchul Kim, Samuel T. Chanson, Chansu Yu, Jonghyun Lee Feb 2003

Corp - A Method Of Concatenation And Optimization For Resource Reservation Path In Mobile Internet, Kyounghee Lee, Myungchul Kim, Samuel T. Chanson, Chansu Yu, Jonghyun Lee

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

Existing research related to RSVP with mobility support has mainly focused on maintaining reservation state along the routing path, which changes continuously with the movements of mobile host (MH), without much overhead and delay. However, problems such as deepening RSVP's inherent scalability problem and requiring significant changes in the existing network infrastructure have not been adequately addressed. In this paper, we propose a new approach, known as Concatenation and Optimization for Reservation Path (CORP), which addresses these issues. In CORP, each BS pre-establishes pseudo reservations to its neighboring BSs in anticipation of the MH's movement. When the MH moves into …

Frequency-Hopped Multiple-Access Communications With Noncoherent M-Ary Ofdm-Ask, A. Al-Dweik, Fuqin Xiong Jan 2003

Frequency-Hopped Multiple-Access Communications With Noncoherent M-Ary Ofdm-Ask, A. Al-Dweik, Fuqin Xiong

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

A noncoherent, bandwidth-efficient modulation scheme is proposed for frequency-hopping multiple-access (FH-MA) networks. The proposed scheme is a combination of noncoherent M-ary amplitude-shift keying (NMASK) and orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM). Using this scheme minimizes the required data bandwidth. The number of frequency slots available to the users increases significantly for a fixed spread-spectrum bandwidth (BWSS). The effect of the multiple-access interference is reduced. Simple and accurate bit error rate expressions have been derived for FH-OFDM-MASK in additive white Gaussian noise channels and for FH-OFDM-ASK in Rayleigh fading channels.
