    Design of optimum nyquist signals based on generalized sampling theory for data communications
    (IEEE, Piscataway, NJ, United States, 1999-06) Panayırcı, Erdal; Özuğur, Timuçin; Çağlar, Hakan
    A new method is given for the optimal design of bandlimited Nyquist-type signal shapes for data communications, which maximizes its energy in a given time interval. The method is based on the periodically nonuniform sampling (PNS) theory making use of the linear splines. The computation is straightforward, and the constraint for intersymbol interferrence is shown to be easy to include in the problem. A numerical example is given, and performance of the optimal signal shapes is compared with that resulting from the use of previously obtained signal shapes in the literature. It is also concluded that the optimal signal shapes thus obtained are almost immune to small offsets at the sampling instants.

    A low-complexity KL expansion-based channel estimator for OFDM systems
    (Springer International Publishing, 2005-04-05) Şenol, Habib; Çırpan, Hakan Ali; Panayırcı, Erdal
    This paper first proposes a computationally efficient, pilot-aided linear minimum mean square error (MMSE) batch channel estimation algorithm for OFDM systems in unknown wireless fading channels. The proposed approach employs a convenient representation of the discrete multipath fading channel based on the Karhunen-Loeve (KL) orthogonal expansion and finds MMSE estimates of the uncorrelated KL series expansion coefficients. Based on such an expansion, no matrix inversion is required in the proposed MMSE estimator. Moreover, optimal rank reduction is achieved by exploiting the optimal truncation property of the KL expansion resulting in a smaller computational load on the estimation algorithm. The performance of the proposed approach is studied through analytical and experimental results. We then consider the stochastic Cramér-Rao bound and derive the closed-form expression for the random KL coefficients and consequently exploit the performance of the MMSE channel estimator based on the evaluation of minimum Bayesian MSE. We also analyze the effect of a modelling mismatch on the estimator performance. To further reduce the complexity, we extend the batch linear MMSE to the sequential linear MMSE estimator. With the fast convergence property and the simple structure, the sequential linear MMSE estimator provides an attractive alternative to the implementation of channel estimator.

    Feature extraction in shape recognition using segmentation of the boundary curve
    (Elsevier Science BV, 1997-10) Özuğur, Timuçin; Denizhan, Yağmur; Panayırcı, Erdal
    We present a new method for feature extraction of two-dimensional shape information based on segmentation of the boundary curve. This approach partitions closed shapes into segments and finds their angular spans. The number of segments and the angular spans form the first two feature parameters of a given shape. Fourier coefficients of all segments constitute the final feature parameters. The algorithm renders the shapes independent of scale, rotation and translation, The main advantage of this method is to speed up substantially the recognition process of the shapes, mainly because it is possible to design the classification rule in a hierarchical way. It is therefore suitable for objects to be sorted in a factory environment where the silhouette boundary supplies sufficient information for identification.

    Analysis of self-noise in a clock recovery system with a high-order nonlinearity
    (IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2003-11) Panayırcı, Erdal
    This correspondence presents a new technique to compute efficiently the spectra of the in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) components as well as the cross-spectrum of the in-phase and quadrature (I-Q) components of self-noise appearing at the output of the zero-memory, high-order nonlinear (NL) device employed in a clock recovery system. It is known that these spectra play an important role in the phase jitter performance of the clock regenerator. The results are very general and applicable to many cases of practical interest. Numerical examples and computer simulations provided show that the new approach yields very accurate results and is much faster than the usual computer simulation method. in addition, we give a theorem to show that for the signal shapes having linear phase, the cross-power spectrum of self-noise is zero. We also provide a general expression for the jitter variance of the generated clock signal in terms of the power spectra of self-noise in-phase and quadrature components. It is shown that the cross-power spectrum will also contribute to timing jitter if the selected signaling shape does not have any symmetry in time domain. The optimal periodic sampling instants Eire determined by the axis crossings of the clock signal in the positive direction. The axis is set at a level whereby the jitter variance takes on a minimum value. It is concluded that when the cross-power spectrum is zero for all frequencies then the optimal sampling instants occur at the positive zero crossings of the clock signal and only the Q noise contributes to the timing jitter performance.
