Contact-free Breathing Rate Monitoring with Smartphones: A Sonar Phase Approach
(2018-07-30)
Vital sign (e.g., respiration rate) monitoring has become increasingly more important because it offers useful clues of medical conditions such as sleep disorders. There is a compelling need for technologies that enable ...
Modeling of Third-order Distortion in Common-Emitter SiGe HBTs Using Mextram 505.00
(2018-06-26)
Mextram is an advanced compact model for bipolar transistors. Mextram 504.12 does
not provide a good OIP3 simulation near peak OIP3. Mextram 505.00 improves peak OIP3
by modifying intrinsic base-collector depletion ...
Smartphone Sensor Fusion For Indoor Localization: A Deep LSTM Approach
(2018-11-05)
With the fast increasing demands of location-based service and the proliferation of smartphones and other mobile devices, accurate indoor localization has attracted great interest. In this thesis, we present DeepML, a deep ...
Power Quality Standard Comparison between China, IEEE, and IEC
(2018-11-15)
This thesis compares power quality standards and measurement methods of the U.S. and
China. These standards specify the power quality parameters (harmonics, flicker, unbalance,etc.),
that are dedicated to ensure the ...
Application of MEMS Inertial Sensors in Sensing Passive Eye Response as a Surrogate for Brain Response to Head Acceleration and Rotation for On-field Objective Assessment of Concussion
(2018-11-27)
The passive eye response (PER) may act as a surrogate for the brain response to head acceleration during a concussion causing impact. A novel eye movement sensor designed in this dissertation is used to verify this hypothesis ...
Towards Efficient 5G Wireless Networks: Cross-Layer Design and Wireless Networking
(2018-07-25)
With the fast growing popularity of smart mobile devices and the explosion of data-intensive services, the 5th generation (5G) wireless system is expected to provide a 1000x mobile data rate in the near future. To provide ...
Flexible Superconducting Microwave Interconnects and Connectors
(2018-04-30)
One of the major limitations to constructing densely-integrated cryogenic electronic systems is the electrical interconnect technology. Superconducting cables with multiple signals, high signal density, low loss, low thermal ...
RF Sensing for Internet of Things: When Machine Learning Meets Channel State Information
(2018-07-24)
With the rapid development of Internet of Things (IoT) techniques, RF sensing has found wide applications for, e.g., indoor localization, activity recognition, and healthcare. In this dissertation, we investigate the problem ...
Control of a Three-phase Shunt Active Power Filter for Unbalanced Conditions
(2018-11-15)
The awareness of the quality and reliability of the power system has been increased in recent years due to several reasons. The excessive increasing of the applications of power electronics devices on the grid causes power ...
Integrated Circuit for Time Domain Mixed Signal Processing
(2018-04-17)
This work explores time to digital conversion techniques, designs and applications for time domain signal processing. Though the time-to-digital conversion devices and integrated circuits (IC) have been invented for decades, ...
