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...

Nanophotonic detection of nanomechanical structures for use toward mass sensing applications
DownloadSpring 2014
Nanomechanical beam resonators show much promise for use in integrated on-chip mass sensing systems. This follows from their own very small masses and also their ability to store the mechanical energy of their oscillations to produce strong measurable mechanical response signals. To achieve...
