Online Library Communities: An Analysis of Ten Canadian Public Library Websites and Social Media
DownloadFall 2015
This thesis addresses the question of whether or not Canadian public libraries are creating online communities through their websites and social media pages. Studies into what sense of community entails, both physically and digitally have been conducted outside of the library and information...

Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are characterized by impairments in social-communication, and restricted, repetitive and stereotypical patterns of behavior, interests, and activities. There is a paucity of research about the adult population as the vast majority of research into ASD has focused...

Dealing with a latent danger: parents communicating with their school-age preadolescent children about smoking - a grounded theory study
DownloadSpring 2011
Smoking in youth continues to be an important public health issue. Because adolescence is the key period for smoking initiation, prevention efforts need to take place before the adolescent years. Little is known about parental smoking prevention interventions. The purpose of this study,...

Simulation of quantization noise effects on the performance of a wireless preamble detector and demonstration of a functional FPGA prototype
DownloadFall 2009
This thesis describes the implementation of the physical layer for an experimental low-power wireless communication device. The system utilizes differential coherent correlation and threshold-based detection to produce a robust random-access packet-based communications protocol. Prior to...

Reduced-Complexity Transceiver Signal Processing Algorithms for Massive MIMO and mmWave Cellular Systems
DownloadSpring 2021
Future broadband cellular networks will have to accommodate explosively growing demand for high bit rate data services. The adoption of multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) designs with large antenna arrays (also known as massive MIMO) and the use of millimeter wave (mmWave) frequency bands are...

Fall 2012
In this thesis, we present Structured Message Transport (SMT). SMT is a transport protocol coordinator designed to alleviate the head-of-line blocking problem of existing transport layer protocols including the most widely used, transmission control protocol (TCP). SMT uses explicit dependency...

Fall 2013
We investigated the problem of constructing a near-field link budget to wirelessly communicate with high data rate (e.g. 3.125 Mbps) implantable circuitry located few centimeters under the skin using spread spectrum technique. Different methods and frequency bands were analyzed to choose the...

Chickadee behavioural response to varying threat levels of heterospecific and conspecific calls
DownloadFall 2015
Chickadees produce many vocalizations, including the chick-a-dee call that they use as a mobbing call in the presence of predators. Previous research has shown that chickadees produce more D notes in their mobbing calls in response to high-threat predators compared to low-threat predators, and...
