Transmission and Reception Techniques for Cooperative and Large-Scale MIMO Wireless Systems
DownloadFall 2014
Current and future broadband cellular systems have to employ efficient techniques for the transmission and reception of high speed data. Equipping transmitters and receivers with multiple-antennas is a major step in this direction as it has the potential of providing a substantial spatial...

Reduced–Complexity Transmission and Reception Strategies in Coordinated Multi-cell Wireless Networks
DownloadFall 2012
Interference is known as a major obstacle for the spectral efficiency increase promised by multiple-antenna techniques in cellular wireless communications. Recently, it has been shown that multi-cell coordination can mitigate interference and improve system performance dramatically. Hence, we...

This thesis proposes a reading of David Gauthier’s moral contractarianism (hereinafter Mb(CM)A) that demonstrates how cooperation can be rational in situations where expected utilities (EU) are stacked too high against cooperation. The dissertation critically examines Mb(CM)A and contends that it...
