Yayın On the effect of random sampling jitter on cyclostationarity based spectrum sensing algorithms for cognitive radio(IEEE, 2009) Öner, Mustafa MengüçCognitive radio is an enabling technology, which is expected to lead to a more efficient utilization of the available spectral resources due to its flexibility and its ability to sense its spectral environment. Recently, spectrum sensing methods based on exploiting the cyclostationary characteristics of communication signals have been drawing considerable interest. Imperfections in the cognitive radio receiver that affect the cyclic statistics of a signal of interest may lead to a degradation in the performance of spectrum sensing algorithms based on cyclostationarity. One such typical source of imperfection is random timing jitter in the sampling process. In this work, we explore the effect of random sampling jitter on the second order cyclostationary statistics of wide sense cyclostationary signals. General analytical expressions are derived for the cyclic statistics of sampled signals in the presence of sampling jitter and specific results are provided for two cases of interest. Subsequently, the effect of the jitter on a spectrum sensing algorithm is investigated via simulations.Yayın Mülteci barınaklarının uydu görüntülerinden çoklu-sınıflı çizge-kesme bölütleme ve gölge bilgisi kullanılarak otomatik sezimi(IEEE, 2014-04-23) Kucur Ergünay, Şerife Seda; Kahraman, Fatih; Ateş, Hasan FehmiBu çalışmada, mülteci kamplarında bulunan yaşam alanlarının/barınakların (çadır, konteynır vb.) uydu ve hava görüntülerinden otomatik olarak sezimi ve sayımına yönelik bir yöntem tanıtılmaktadır. Mülteci kamplarındaki barınakların çok yüksek çözünürlüklü (VHR) görüntülerde dahi çok küçük boyuta sahip, belli bir alanda çok sık ve bazen karmaşık şekilde yerleştirilmiş ve arkaplan ile ayrıştırılması zor nesnelere denk geliyor olması otomatik barınak/çadır sezim ve sayımını zorlaştırmaktadır. Bahsedilen problemin çözümüne yönelik olarak çok sınıflı çizge-kesme (graph-cut) bölütlemesi ve gölge bilgisinin kullanıldığı özgün bir yöntem çalışma kapsamında önerilmektedir. Buna göre, ilk adımda çizge-kesme bölütleme yöntemi ve morfoloji işlemleri uygulanarak çadır sezimi yapılmıştır. Bu adımda sezilememiş çadırların bulunabilmesi için ikinci bir adımda çadırların gölge bilgisinden faydalanılmıştır. En son adımda gradyan-tabanlı eşikleme yöntemi ile yanlış tespitlerin elenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Önerilen yöntem, özellikle karmaşık yerleşim düzenine sahip mülteci kampları (çadırkent) üzerinde test edilmiştir. Yöntemin başarımı kesinlik (precision) ve geri getirme (recall) kriterlerine göre belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen ortalama kesinlik ve geri getirme başarımları sırasıyla %91.9 ve %90.0 olup problemin zorluğu göz önünde bulundurulduğunda umut vadedici bir sonuçtur.Yayın Phased subarray imaging for low-cost, wideband coherent array imaging(IEEE, 2003) Johnson, Jeremy A.; Oralkan, Ömer; Ergün, Arif Sanlı; Demirci, Utkan; Karaman, Mustafa; Khuri-Yakub, Butrus ThomasThe front-end hardware complexity of conventional full phased array (FPA) imaging is proportional to the number of array elements. Phased subarray (PSA) imaging has been proposed as a method of reducing the hardware complexity-and therefore system cost and size-while achieving near-FPA image quality. A new method is presented for designing the subarray-dependent interpolation filters suitable for wideband PSA imaging. The method was tested experimentally using pulse-echo data of a wire target phantom acquired using a 3.2-cm. 128-element capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) array with 85% fractional bandwidth at 3 MHz. A specific PSA configuration using seven 32-element subarrays was compared to FPA imaging, representing a 4-fold reduction in front-end hardware complexity and a 43% decrease in frame rate. For targets near the fixed transmit focal distance, the mean 6-dB lateral resolution was identical to that of FPA, the axial resolution improved by 4%, and the SNR decreased by 5 dB. Measurements were repeated for 10 different PSA configurations with subarray sizes ranging from 4 to 60. The lateral and axial resolutions did not vary significantly with subarray size; both the SNR and contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) improved with increased subarray size.Yayın A New speech coding algorithm using zero cross and phoneme based SYMPES(IEEE, 2013-07-11) Şişman, Burak; Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this work, a new low bit rate hybrid speech coding approach which combines the benefits of the SYMPES (Systematic Procedure for Predefined Envelope and Signature Sequences) and zero cross and phoneme based segmentation is proposed. In the new approach, the SYMPES structure is developed in the phoneme based fashion. In order to achieve lower bit rates, some drawbacks such as computational complexity, relatively high encoding times etc. of the SYMPES are also eliminated in the new version. Experimental results show that in almost same bit rates very promising speech quality is obtained compared to the other conventional methods such as CELP (Code Excited Linear Predictive) coding algorithm.Yayın 2W wideband microwave PA design for 824-2170 MHz band using normalized gain function method(IEEE, 2013) Köprü, Ramazan; Kuntman, Hulusi Hakan; Yarman, Bekir Sıddık BinboğaIn this work, we present the design of a 2W linear wideband microwave PA (power amplifier) targeted to operate in 824-2170 MHz mobile frequency range covering GSM850, EGSM, DCS, PCS and WCDMA. The design is basically based on the NGF (Normalized Gain Function) method which is very recently introduced into the literature. NGF is defined as the ratio of T and |S-21|(2), i.e. T-NGF= T/|S-21|(2), shape of the gain function of the amplifier to be designed and the shape of the transistor forward gain function, respectively. Synthesis of input/output matching networks (IMN/OMN) of the amplifier requires target gain functions, which are mathematically generated in terms of TNGF. The particular transistor used in the design is FP31QF, a 2W HFET from TriQuint Semiconductor. Theoretical PA performance obtained in Matlab is shown to be in a very high agreement with the simulated performance in MWO (Microwave Office) of AWR Inc.Yayın Integrated ultrasonic imaging systems based on CMUT arrays: Recent progress(IEEE, 2004) Wygant, Ira O.; Zhuang, Xuefeng; Yeh, David T.; Nikoozadeh, Amin; Oralkan, Ömer; Ergün, Arif Sanlı; Karaman, Mustafa; Khuri-Yakub, Butrus ThomasThis paper describes the development of an ultrasonic imaging system based on a two-dimensional capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (CMUT) array. The transducer array and front-end electronics are designed to fit in a 5-mm endoscopic channel. A custom-designed integrated circuit, which comprises the front-end electronics, will be connected with the transducer elements via through-wafer interconnects and flip-chip bonding. FPGA-based signal-processing hardware will provide real-time three-dimensional imaging. The imaging system is being developed to demonstrate a means of integrating the front-end electronics with the transducer array and to provide a clinically useful technology. Integration of the electronics can improve signal-to-noise ratio, reduce the number of cables connecting the imaging probe to a separate processing unit, and provide a means of connecting electronics to large two-dimensional transducer arrays. This paper describes the imaging system architecture and the progress we have made on implementing each of its components: a 16×16 CMUT array, custom-designed integrated circuits, a flip-chip bonding technique, and signal-processing hardware.Yayın Energy harvesting cooperative multiple access channel with data arrivals(IEEE, 2016) Gürakan, Berk; Kaya, Onur; Ulukuş, ŞennurWe consider an energy harvesting two user cooperative Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC), where both of the users harvest energy from nature. The data packets arrive intermittently over time. The users overhear each other's transmitted signals and can cooperate by forming common messages. We find the optimal offline transmit power and rate allocation policy that maximize the departure region. We first show that there exists an optimal policy, in which the single user rate constraints in each time slot are tight, yielding a one to one relation between the powers and rates. Then, we formulate the departure region maximization problem as a weighted sum rate maximization in terms of rates only. Next, we propose a sequential convex approximation method to approximate the problem at each step and show that it converges to the optimal solution. Finally, we solve the approximate problems using an inner outer decomposition method. Numerically, we observe that higher data rates can be supported with the same amount of energy.Yayın A low loss, low voltage and high Q active inductor with multi-regulated cascade stage for RF applications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Momen, Hadi Ghasemzadeh; Yazgı, Metin; Köprü, RamazanNumerous structural planning of active inductors have been proposed as of not long ago in literature which showing tuning conceivable outcomes, low chip area and offering integration facility, they constitute promising architecture to replace passive inductors in RF circuits. The modified of a conventional active inductor based on Gyrator-C topology consisting of both transconductance stages realized by common-source configuration with multi-regulated cascade stage is presented. The Q factor and value of active inductor is adjusted with bias current and flexible capacitance, respectively. Multi regulated cascade stage is used to boost gain of input impedance and inductor value and decrease series resistance of designed inductor witch caused loss. The circuit is suitable for low voltage operation, high quality factor and low power dissipation. Simulation results are provided for 90 nm TSMC CMOS process with 1 V supply voltage. Self-resonance frequency and power consumption of active inductor is 8.9 GHz and 1.2 mW, respectively.Yayın Teaching aliasing and spectral leakage through the sampling of images(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2019-05-29) Tavşanoğlu, Ahmet VedatAliasing and spectral leakage are artifacts of sampling and rectangular windowing, respectively, whose manifestations are noticed in both the spatial and frequency domains. This paper aims to provide a classroom example which enables the recognition and mathematical interpretation of such phenomena.Yayın Enabling cooperation, resource allocation and receiver selection across cells: complementary fractional frequency reuse(IEEE, 2013) Bakşi, Saygın; Kaya, Onur; Bıyıkoğlu, TürkerFor a multi-cell multiple access channel, we develop a comprehensive cooperative communication framework: we propose a novel complementary fractional frequency reuse (FFR) strategy tailored specifically for pairwise user cooperation, also taking into account cell sectoring. This strategy allows the cell edge users not only to pool their resources and cooperate across cells, but also to choose the best receiver. We divide the users into cooperating inner and outer user pairs, and assign each pair orthogonal resources using OFDMA. We employ pairwise bidirectional cooperation based on block Markov superposition encoding among user pairs. We derive the achievable rates, while taking into account the geometry dependent interference at the users and the receiver. We find the jointly optimal power allocation, partner selection and receiver selection strategies that maximize the sum rate of the system. We then propose a heuristic matching algorithm, which operates based only on user and receiver locations. We compare the performance of our proposed strategies with several non-cooperative models, and demonstrate that the sum rate can nearly be doubled, while using the same resources.
