    Radio Channel Measurements and Modeling for Smart Antenna Array Systems Using a Software Radio Receiver William G. Newhall Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Electrical and Computer Engineering Committee Jeffrey H. Reed (Chairman) Warren L. Stutzman William H. Tranter Brian D. Woerner C. Patrick Koelling April 2003 Blacksburg, Virginia © 2003 William G. Newhall Keywords: Propagation Measurement, Channel Modeling, Vector Channels, Smart Antenna, Software Radio, Multipath, Wireless Communications. Radio Channel Measurements and Modeling for Smart Antenna Array Systems Using a Software Radio Receiver William G. Newhall Abstract This dissertation presents research performed in the areas of radio wave propagation measurement and modeling, smart antenna arrays, and software-defined radio development. A four-channel, wideband, software-defined receiver was developed to serve as a test bed for wideband measurements and antenna array experiments. This receiver was used to perform vector channel measurements in terrestrial and air-to-ground environments using an antenna array. Measurement results served as input to radio channel simulations based on three geometric channel models. The simulation results were compared to measurement results to evaluate the performance of the radio channel models under test. Criteria for evaluation include RMS delay spread, excess delay spread, signal envelope fading, antenna diversity gain, and gain achieved through the use of a two-dimensional rake receiver. This research makes contributions to the wireless communications field through analysis, development, measurement, and simulation that builds upon past theoretical and experimental results. Contributions include a software-defined radio architecture, based on object oriented techniques, that has been developed and successfully demonstrated using the wideband receiver.

If the antenna does not change the position for the specified angle, then the signal loss will be very high. By considering the aforesaid drawback, here a new genetic algorithm based technique for beam forming in smart antenna system is proposed. In the proposed technique, if the angle is given as input, the maximum signal gain in the beam pattern of the antenna with corresponding position and phase angle is obtained as output. The length of the beam, interference, phase angle, and the number of patterns are the factors that are considered in our proposed technique. By using this technique, the gain of the system gets increased as well as the interference is reduced considerably. The implementation result exhibits the efficiency of the system in beam forming.

Dandekar VTT Technical Research Centre of Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Finland Drexel University Email: {Henna.Paaso,Aarne.Mammela}@vtt.fi Philadelphia, PA, USA Email: {damiano.patron,dandekar}@drexel.edu Abstract—In this paper, we formulate and experimentally demonstrate direction of arrival (DoA) estimation with a two-port composite right/left handed (CRLH) leaky-wave antenna (LWA) using the multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm. The CRLH LWA consists of a cascade of metamaterial unit cells, periodically modulated using varactor diodes. By changing the voltages across series and shunt varactors, the antenna is able to uniformly steer its radiation pattern. The proposed modified MUSIC algorithm, uses both antenna’s input ports to estimate the DoA. Conventionally, the MUSIC algorithm needs to calculate the correlation matrix from the output vector of an array of antenna elements. In this work, we show in detail how the correlation matrix can be computed when using leaky-wave antennas. The algorithm is demonstrated using LWA in an anechoic chamber and the estimated DoA results are in good agreement with the predicted angles. Fig. 1. System model. I. INTRODUCTION Direction of arrival estimation using compact antenna arrays be significantly improved over previous methods. In this paper are of great importance to future cognitive radio systems. we focus on the MUSIC algorithm, showing how it can be The spectrum reuse and sensing performance can be greatly used with a metamaterial LWA instead of conventional antenna improved by using spatial dimension with the help of reconfig- arrays.

  • The Transition to Digital Television: Is America Ready?
    The Transition to Digital Television: Is America Ready? -name redacted- Specialist in Science and Technology Policy June 19, 2009 Congressional Research Service 7-.... www.crs.gov RL34165 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress The Transition to Digital Television: Is America Ready? Summary The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-171), as amended by the DTV Delay Act, directed that on June 12, 2009, all over-the-air full-power television broadcasts—which were previously provided by television stations in both analog and digital formats—would become digital only. Digital television (DTV) technology allows a broadcaster to offer a single program stream of high definition television (HDTV), or alternatively, multiple video program streams (multicasts). Households with over-the-air analog-only televisions will no longer be able to receive full-power television service unless they either (1) buy a digital-to-analog converter box to hook up to their analog television set; (2) acquire a digital television or an analog television equipped with a digital tuner; or (3) subscribe to cable, satellite, or telephone company television services, which will provide for the conversion of digital signals to their analog customers. The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 established a digital-to-analog converter box program— administered by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) of the Department of Commerce—that partially subsidizes consumer purchases of converter boxes. NTIA provides up to two forty-dollar coupons to requesting U.S. households. The coupons are being issued between January 1, 2008, and July 31, 2009, and must be used within 90 days after issuance towards the purchase of a stand-alone device used solely for digital-to-analog conversion.

Line sensors have to be avoid unauthorized system or network to access any installed parallel to physical barriers. This gives better local area networks or information from wireless aid to mount the transmitting antenna. A group of devices. In this system the total zone length is miniature antennas are mounted on the physical barrier subdivided into equal parts with specific intrusion as a string. crossing point resolution. Most providers use private Our system uses the TRD technology that is communications like mobile e-commerce accustomed in cable fault location. Guidar, introduced in transactions. However intrusion happens as it 1970s was the first that applied the TRD in intrusion exploits the flaws to decrypt the communication sensor for leaky coaxial cable [3]. Also correlated transactions. Decryption techniques are developed concept in fence sensor was also introduced [4]. and distributed to increase the intrusion. This paper In synergistic radar principle is that range gating mainly concentrates on intrusion detection in radar principles and TRD is used for sub-dividing the cable technology and also highlights some of the tools that (through which RF pulse is launched) into series of is being used in companies for Network Monitoring subzones.
