Zurich, August 17, 2015 Vaibhav Kulkarni iii Abstract The past decade has seen a rapid growth in the number of wireless technologies and devices. The unlicensed bands host a range of heterogeneous RF radios which compete with each other for the shared channel access and give rise to non trivial communication challenges such as Cross-Technology-Interference (CTI), co-existence and achieving fairness. Thus, there is a growing need in the research community today, to understand and debug the network performance in the presence of CTI. In this thesis, we address wireless coexistence by focusing on designing tools to facilitate repeatable and controllable interference generation and investigating algorithms to localize high power interference sources in indoor wireless networks. We design a platform to generate controllable interference patterns depicted by prevalent interference sources active in 2.4 GHz ISM band. This tool provides three interfaces consisting of a record and playback module to generate interference pat- terns of sources which are not typically RF radios, a software radio implementation module consisting of implementations of consumer wireless devices and a commercial radio chipset module to generate interference depicted by prevalent communication protocols. The unified nature of this tool makes it easy to integrate in testbeds and operate remotely. We validate the accuracy of the generated interference patterns in the temporal and spectral domains and quantify the impact on communication links. We achieve high accuracy and realism for interferer types occupying narrow band- width such as analog phone and interferers depicting frequency sweeping behavior such as microwave oven. In order to troubleshoot the network performance, it is as well beneficial to localize the interference source degrading the network throughput. To this end, we design and implement an algorithm to localize rouge interfering radios using a low power wireless network. Prior work on localizing uncooperative radios is restricted to WiFi networks, where, off the shelf WiFi cards having reasonable computational capability and multiple antennas have been used. Our design addresses the challenges offered by low-power senor nodes, such as low computational capability, lower sampling rates and a single omnidirectional antenna. It exploits the collaborative and distributed nature of a dense network to model the propagation loss characteristics of the medium in order to mask the ill effects of multipath and shadowing in an indoor environment. We observe that, the localization accuracy is dependent upon the interferer type and achieve an average point level accuracy of 2.1 meters. v Acknowledgements Hereby, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to those who helped and supported me during this mater thesis work and particularly thank: My supervisors Prof. Friedemann Mattern and Dr. Majid Nabi Najafabadi for their valuable suggestions and feedbacks.

The 2.4 GHz ISM band is occupied by prevalent technologies such as WiFi (IEEE 802.11) [5], Bluetooth [27], IEEE 802.15.4 [16], analog and digital cordless phones, security cameras and 2.4 GHz RFID. These heterogeneous RF radios follow different protocols, communication primitives and have diverse physical layer artifacts. Such devices coexist and compete for the shared channel access leading to Cross-Technology-Interference (CTI). CTI has adverse effects on the performance wireless technologies and results in packet losses, increased network latency and reduced energy efficiency. In addition, CTI also has severe effects on the performance of RF based services such as indoor localization [33, 45] and activity recognition systems [18, 20]. Interference is the major cause today for reducing the network throughput and thus there is a strong need for understanding and debugging the performance of wireless networks under CTI. Problem Statement In order to improve the performance and robustness of the wireless systems it is necessary to gain a detailed understanding of how the heterogeneous devices coexist and compete in the shared ISM band. Further, it is also necessary to perceive, how the CTI sources affect the communication parameters such as error patterns, channel back-offs, packet corruption rates and others. This study, requires an infrastructure to generate repeatable and controllable interference patterns which can be used to augment the testing environments in order to expose networks to realistic interference. Currently, researchers working with wireless coexistence use either modeling or simulation [49,67] which are inaccurate and abstract. On the other hand, some researchers use the interference generated from actual wireless devices [23,55], which is realistic but cumbersome, expensive and impractical.

Sikes, Assistant Secretary for Communications and Information MAY 1989 ABSTRACT Since the spectrum is a limited natural resource, the spectrum management community has a major interest in identifying spectrum conservation techniques that will provide more efficient spectrum utilization. Advances in new technology for fixed microwave systems in antennas, modulation schemes and signal processing techniques offer increased efficiency in spectrum utilization. This report analyzes the spectrum conserving properties of the various new technologies for fixed microwave systems applying the concepts in CCIR Report 662-2, and was defined as the spectrum conservation factor (SCF). The report concludes that the SCF technique is an effective indicator of the spectrum conserving properties of technologies which can be used to develop new spectrum standards.

Copyright ©1998 by the Audio Engineering Society Abstract This standard provides methods for specifying and verifying the performance of digital audio equipment. Many tests are substantially identical to those used when testing analog equipment. However, because of the unique requirements of digital audio equipment and the effects of its imperfections, additional tests are necessary.

The existence of an AES standard does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether or not he or she has approved the document, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standard. Prior to approval, all parties were provided opportunities to comment or object to any provision.
