continuously evolve to something new, either towards the positive or towards the negative, it seems that there are some values that retain the same significance throughout the centuries. As long as history goes back, there is proof that societies tend to value citizens that show an outstanding performance in an area that significantly con- tributes to the welfare of the society as a whole. EURASIP,everyyear,offers a small number of prestigious awards to scientists, from all over the world, whose major contributions left a distinct “stamp” on the Signal Processing community and research. For each award, a committee of experts, who are recognized in- ternationally, is formed that finally decides to offer the award to one among a number of strong candidates. This year’s EURASIP Awards recipients are: • Meritorious Service Award: Giovanni Sicuranza, “For Fundamental Activities in Non- linear Signal and Image Processing and for Continuous Commitment with EURASIP in the Last Ten Years.” • Individual Technical Achievement Award: Pierre Comon, “For Contributions in the Field of Blind Signal Processing and the Independent Component Analysis Method- ology.” • European Group Technical Achievement Award: Alfonso Farina, “For Development and Application of Adaptive Signal Processing Techniques in Radar Systems.” • Best Paper Award published in Signal Processing: R. Schober, W. H. Gerstacker, L. Lampe, for their paper: “On suboptimum receivers for DSCDMA with BPSK modulation,” Vol. 85(6), pp. 1149–1163, 2005. • Best Paper Award published in Image Communications: N. Bozinovic, J. Konrad, for their paper: “Motion analysis in 3D DCT domain and its application to video coding,” Vol. 20(6), pp. 510–528, 2005. • Best Paper Award published in Journal of Applied Signal Processing: G .

I would like to congratulate all the above colleagues for their achievements. Nomination will take place during EUSIPCO-06 in Florence. 2 EURASIP Messages This year, the EURASIP adcom has decided to establish the “Athanasios Papoulis” award, named after the great scientist and educator. The award will not be given regularly, but only on demand, i.e., every time an exceptional candidate, with significant contribu- tions in Education in the areas of Signal Processing and related technologies, is nominated. The award will be offered for the first time next year. See all of you in Florence to enjoy another EUSIPCO and have discussions on all aspects of Signal Processing research and education.

  • On the Cascaded Weibull Fading Channel Model
    ARTICLE IN PRESS Journal of the Franklin Institute 344 (2007) 1–11 www.elsevier.com/locate/jfranklin On the cascaded Weibull fading channel model Nikos C. Sagiasa, George S.

This model is generated by the product of independent, but not necessarily identically distributed, Weibull random variables (RVs). By quantifying the convergence rate of the central limit theorem as pertaining to the multiplication of Weibull distributed RVs, the statistical basis of the lognormal distribution is investigated. By performing Kolmogorov–Smirnov tests, the null hypothesis for this product to be approximated by the lognormal distribution is studied. Another null hypothesis is also examined for this product to be approximated by a Weibull distribution with properly adjusted statistical parameters. r 2006 The Franklin Institute.

Keywords: Fading channels; Weibull distribution; Lognormal distribution; Cascaded fading; Shannon capacity; Kolmogorov–Smirnov test; Central limit theorem (CLT); Stochastic models; Product of variates 1. Introduction Due to the existence of a great variety of fading environments, several distributions have been proposed for channel modeling of fading envelopes under short, long, as well as mixed fading conditions [1]. Recently, attention has been given to the so-called ‘‘multiplicative’’ stochastic models.

Matolak We empirically characterize the 5 GHz channel for airport surface (AS) area and vehicle to vehicle (VTV) communication systems. The characterization consists of stochastic models for the channel impulse response, which focus on small-scale, and “medium,” or “meso-“scale effects. Motivation is provided by reviewing the growth in civil aviation and VTV communications, and by describing the utility of the 5 GHz band for these new communication systems. Further motivation arose from our literature survey, which revealed a pressing need for wideband stochastic channel models for these new applications in this band. Data measurement campaigns and environment descriptions are provided. For both the AS and VTV settings, classification schemes are developed. These schemes allow grouping AS and VTV environments into classes, and these classes are further divided into propagation regions, for which channel characteristics are statistically similar.

  • On the Use of Padé Approximation for Performance Evaluation of Maximal

Ismail and Mustafa M. Matalgah Department of Electrical Engineering, Center for Wireless Communications, The University of Mississippi, University, MS 38677-1848, USA Received 1 April 2005; Revised 18 August 2005; Accepted 11 October 2005 Recommended for Publication by Peter Djuric We use the Pade´ approximation (PA) technique to obtain closed-form approximate expressions for the moment-generating func- tion (MGF) of the Weibull random variable. Unlike previously obtained closed-form exact expressions for the MGF, which are relatively complicated as being given in terms of the Meijer G-function, PA can be used to obtain simple rational expressions for the MGF, which can be easily used in further computations. We illustrate the accuracy of the PA technique by comparing its results to either the existing exact MGF or to that obtained via Monte Carlo simulations. Using the approximate expressions, we analyze the performance of digital modulation schemes over the single channel and the multichannels employing maximal ratio combin- ing (MRC) under the Weibull fading assumption. Our results show excellent agreement with previously published results as well as with simulations. Copyright © 2006 M. H. Ismail and M. M. Matalgah.

Matolak This thesis presents a wideband statistical wireless channel characterization for a campus environment in the band around 5120 MHz (just below the Unlicensed National Information Infrastructure (UNII) bands), based upon measurements. To accomplish these measurements, the stationary transmitter was placed on the rooftop of three separate buildings, and the receiver was moved along the ground at pedestrian velocities. The measurement locations chosen were segregated into line of sight (LOS) and non line of sight (NLOS) regions. Important channel parameters, including delay spread and coherence bandwidth, were obtained from power delay profiles, collected using the 50 MHz bandwidth signal. From the measured data, the thesis provides channel models for a 50 MHz bandwidth and other smaller values of bandwidth, by specifying the number of “taps” in the common tapped delay line model, and the tap’s amplitude statistics and relative energies.
