Theses and Dissertations

This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

    maximize the average throughput of the network, an optimal stopping strategy with threshold-based structure is derived in this scheme. To obtain the threshold, a low complexity algorithm is proposed to derive the stationary probability distribution of the energy level of each relay, and then, the threshold

    challenges, with four research components.The first research component focuses on the optimal slot length configuration in cognitive radio networks. A slot length configuration scheme with imperfect spectrum sensing is proposed in this research. In the proposed scheme, the spectrum sensing result is

    With the fast growth of mobile data traffic, spectrum scarcity has become a serious problem to the development of wireless networks. Due to the limited available spectrum resources, it is critical to improve the spectrum efficiency. Cognitive radio, opportunistic scheduling, and non-orthogonal
