Fall 2009
Electrical machine condition monitoring plays an important role in modern industries. Instead of allowing the machines to run until failure, it is preferred to gather more information about the machine condition before the machine is shut down, so that the machine downtime can be reduced due to...

Associative classification, linguistic entity relationship extraction, and description-logic representation of biomedical knowledge applied to MEDLINE
DownloadFall 2009
MEDLINE, a large and constantly increasing collection of biomedical article references, has been the source of numerous investigations related to textual information retrieval and knowledge capture, including article categorization, bibliometric analysis, semantic query answering, and biological...

Compact and accurate hardware simulation of wireless channels for single and multiple antenna systems
DownloadFall 2009
The accurate simulation of wireless channels is important since it permits the realistic and repeatable performance measurement of wireless systems. While software simulation is a flexible method for testing hardware models, its long-running simulation time can be prohibitive in many scenarios....

Fall 2009
The analysis of wide-angle cellular light scattering patterns is a challenging problem. Small changes to the organization, orientation, shape, and optical properties of scatterers and scattering populations can significantly alter their complex two-dimensional scattering signatures. Because of...

Cooperative linear precoding for spectrum sharing in multi-user wireless systems: game theoretic approach
DownloadFall 2009
Future wireless communications expect to experience a spectrum shortage problem. One practical solution is spectrum sharing. This thesis studies precoding strategies to allocate communication resources for spectrum sharing in multi-user wireless systems from a game-theoretic perspective. The...

Fall 2009
Synchronization is a very important part of every digital communication receiver. While in bandpass coherent transmission, frequency and phase synchronization play a very important role in reliable transmission, symbol timing recovery is a necessary part of every baseband and bandpass coherent...

Fall 2009
The complexity of large industrial engineering systems such as chemical plants has continued to increase over the years. As a result, flexible control systems are required to handle variation in the operating conditions. In the classical approach, first the plant model should be linearized at the...

Fall 2009
The non-local stabilization of nonlinear systems by output feedback is a challenging problem that remains the subject of continuing investigation in control theory. In this thesis we develop two globally asymptotically stabilizing output feedback algorithms for multivariable nonlinear systems....

Fall 2009
Use Case modeling has been constantly gaining popularity as the technique of choice for eliciting and documenting functional requirements. The deployment of Use Case models in industry has resulted in many positive experience reports being published. The inclusion of Use Case modeling into the...

Integration of Nanomechanical Resonators in Microfluidic Systems for Specific Protein Detection
DownloadFall 2009
Nanomechanical resonators offer a pathway towards highly sensitive and label-free detection of biomolecules by transducing the mass of bound analytes into resonant frequency shifts. Zeptogram level and even single cell detections have been successfully achieved by others. However, these...
