Currently, multiple-input multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access (MIMO-NOMA) technology has been considered as a promising multiple access technology for the fifth generation (5G) networks to improve system capacity ...

Billions of people are living in energy poverty or living with no access to electricity. However, the conventional energy solution with large power plants and long transmission lines is no longer effective in these areas ...

Reliable and efficient communication of analog observations over a fading multiple access channel (MAC) is important in wireless sensor networks. A sensor network can be well modelled by a set of correlated Gaussian sources ...

The goal of image compression is to reduce the number of bits required to represent an image with a minimum loss of visual quality. However, conventional image compression algorithms, such as JPEG, produce unpleasant ...

This thesis presents deep learning techniques applied to the modeling of geophysical quantities with remote sensing data to estimate soil moisture and classify sea ice type. The objective of the thesis is to determine if ...

Frequency scanning is a numerical method for extracting the frequency response of a power electronic system (PES). This technique is performed via injecting a small-amplitude wide-band signal in the time-domain simulation ...

Dementia in general and Alzheimer Disease in particular are one of the most challenging health conditions in our century. Experiencing cognitive decline, resulting in relying on others for daily living activities and ...

The dimensions of data have increased significantly with the abundance of the data that we share. This high-dimensional data results in redundant and irrelevant features that creates challenges to existing machine learning ...

Renewable energy sources and energy storage systems will hold increasingly significant positions in modern power systems. These systems utilize power-electronic converters as the medium for connection to the grid. The ...

The interconnection of distributed energy resources (DER) alters the radial structure of distribution systems and the character of fault currents resulting in delayed operation, reduced sensitivity, or loss of coordination ...
