Fall 2024
The rising demand for high-data-rate services has led to increased congestion in traditional low-GHz RF wireless communication channels. To alleviate this bandwidth shortage, higher-frequency bands like millimeter-wave and sub-THz frequencies are used. However, these higher-frequency signals...

Enhancing Backscatter Communication Networks: Optimization and Integration with Emerging Technologies
DownloadFall 2024
Future wireless networks require low cost, high spectral efficiency, and high energy efficiency. To achieve these goals, backscatter communication (BackComm) networks rely on passive reflective backscatter devices (tags). However, passive transmission causes low data rates and ranges. To address...

Multiple access interference (MAI) in time-hopping (TH) ultra-wideband (UWB) systems is known to be non-Gaussian. Several statistical models have been proposed for the MAI, and based on them various nonlinear single-user receivers have been designed. In this thesis, an accurate mathematical model...
