Recent advances in chaotic communications have paved the way for the implementation of matched filter based receivers to detect chaotic signals generated by hybrid-chaotic oscillators. These oscillators offer an exact analytic solution given their fixed basis function. This paper extends the hybrid-chaotic oscillator concept and presents a novel hybrid-chaotic oscillator for multilevel chaotic modulation...
An active quasi-circulator (AQC) operating at a frequency band ranging from 1.2–3.8 GHz is designed in a 0.18-μm CMOS process. To improve the isolation between AQC's ports common-gate (CG), common-source (CS) and common-drain (CD) configurations have been employed. To particularly improve the transmitter-to-receiver port isolation, out-of-phase cancellation is employed by making the transmit signal...
This paper presents a ray tracing approach to optimise the position of a relay in a static environment such that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is maximised at the receiver. The underlying principles behind the ray tracing wireless channel model are summarised. An implementation of a ray tracing algorithm is developed in MATLAB to calculate the channel state information (CSI) of a relay-assisted...

In this paper is described a set of constraints applied to a wireless power-supply system (emitter and receiver) for operating in optimal conditions. These constraints regard both geometrical aspects and operational conditions of the system. There is also presented the performance optimization in the power wireless transfer. Starting from the equivalent scheme of a wireless power transfer system sinusoidal...
The Band-1 receiver front-end cartridges for Atacama Large Millimeter Array, which covered 35–50 GHz frequency range, are now in preproduction stage. For the first three preproduction cartridges, the measured receiver noise temperature is less than 16–31K for any combination of the inband RF and LO frequencies. The measured gain flatness, even with the limitation of the optical window of the cryostat...
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have gained interest in different areas due to their versatility and multiple applications. In this case study, a wireless communication system is analyzed between the UAV and its earth station, for the transmission of thermal images in real time and application in fire control. Considering different types of UAVs capable of transporting a high performance thermal camera,...
Most of the physical-layer authentication methods are based on the pre-knowledge of the channel information and the threshold is fixed before the communication process. In this paper, we propose a physical layer authentication method based on channel information and machine learning with a dynamic threshold in wireless communication environment. In this method, the threshold of the channel differences...
The application of Wireless Power Transfer (WPT) systems is primarily limited by its energy transfer efficiency. For modern WPT that utilises Strongly Coupled Magnetic Resonances (SCMR), which transfers energy by using the mutual inductance between coils, a higher efficiency can be achieved compared with a conventional air-core transformer module. An SCMR normally works at a desired frequency which...
A method for detecting human motion in complex scenarios based on Channel State Information (CSI) is presented. First, the sensitivity of CSI phase information to human motion is explored, especially to the strenuous motion. Through a large number of experiments, the influence of human motion on CSI phase is found out, and the characteristics of signal changes are extracted. The One-class Support...
This paper presents a novel electric vehicle (EV) dynamic wireless charging (DWC) research platform solution. Conventional solution tends to build a low speed, space-occupying, power-derating system, which does not accurately reflect the dynamic process of on-board wireless charger at high travelling speed. Considering the receiver-side open circuit voltage equivalent, the proposed solution simulates...

This paper considers a wireless power transfer system with multiple antennas by using the multicarrier signal waveforms. A prior art optimizes the waveform with the channel state information at the transmitter (CSIT) to improve the energy harvesting efficiency of the receiver with the non-linear model. The impact of the imperfect CSIT on the energy harvesting capability is studied as a function of...
The emerging market of the Internet of Things (IoT) requires new energy-efficient and low-complexity Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO-) aided radio access technologies. This trend will have a profound impact on both the theory and practice of future communication networks, which will not be purely optimized for approaching the attainable capacity anymore, but will explicitly include the energy...
Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) offer real-time diagnostics of the status of a vehicle's tires via a wireless communications link back to the vehicle. These links, which provide data, mandated by the NHTSA, generally possess low security/low privacy, leading to a demonstrated potential for spoofing attacks or tracking a person/vehicle through the unencrypted emission of the tire's unique identifier...
