Navigation of autonomous mobile robots in connected groups
(IEEE, 2008)
The navigation of autonomous mobile robots as a group is considered in this paper. Definitions adopted from the graph theory are given to characterize the robot group. A local steering strategy is proposed such that when ...
Outage Diversity for Distributed Estimation over Parallel Fading Channels
(IEEE, 2008)
In this paper we study the outage diversity in distributed estimation over parallel fading channels. We find tight upper and lower bounds on the diversity order and show that they are arbitrarily close under certain ...
Distributed estimation over parallel fading channels with channel estimation error
(IEEE, 2008)
We consider distributed estimation of a source observed by sensors in additive Gaussian noise where the sensors are connected to a fusion center with unknown orthogonal (parallel) flat Rayleigh fading channels. We adopt a ...
Joint Data Detection and Channel Estimation for OFDM Systems in the Presence of Very High Mobility
(IEEE, 2009)
This paper is concerned with the challenging and timely problem of joint channel estimation and data detection for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in the presence of frequency selective and very ...
On preserving connectivity of autonomous mobile robots
(IEEE, 2009)
The connectivity of the autonomous mobile robots is considered in this paper. The group navigation is provided using simple local steering rules and without any explicit communication. Sub-optimal solutions are invoked to ...
Analytical Expense Management System
(IEEE, 2009)
Although the development of communication technologies (e.g: UMTS ADSL) allowed the elaboration of multiple users' web applications (e.g. information storage) there are still many improvements on many applications to be ...
Modeling the optical properties of WO(3) and WO(3)-SiO(2) thin films
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2008)
The optical properties and surface morphology of sol-gel spin coated WO(3) and WO(3)-SiO(2) composite films annealed at 250 and 400 degrees C are investigated. For the purpose of extracting the optical parameters of the ...
Electrochromic properties of heat-treated thin films of CeO2-TiO2-ZrO2 prepared by sol-gel route
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2008)
CeO2-TiO2-ZrO2 thin films were prepared using the sol-gel process and deposited on glass and ITO-coated glass substrates via dipcoating technique. The samples were heat treated between 100 and 500 degrees C. The heat ...

Fully Decentralized and Collaborative Multilateration Primitives for Uniquely Localizing WSNs
(Springer International Publishing Ag, 2010)
We provide primitives for uniquely localizing WSN nodes. The goal is to maximize the number of uniquely localized nodes assuming a fully decentralized model of computation. Each node constructs a cluster of its own and ...
