2. Detection of sparse random signals using compressive measurements
- Abstract
We consider the problem of detecting a sparse random signal from the compressive measurements without reconstructing the signal. Using a subspace model for the sparse signal where the signal parameters are drawn according to Gaussian law, we obtain the detector based on Neyman-Pearson criterion and analytically determine its operating characteristics when the signal covariance is known. These results are extended to situations where the covariance cannot be estimated. The results can be used to determine the number of measurements needed for a particular detector performance and also illustrate the presence of an optimal support for a given number of measurements., QC 20121119

3. Ground Plane Feature Detection in Mobile Vision-Aided Inertial Navigation
- Abstract
In this paper, a method for determining ground plane features in a sequence of images captured by a mobile camera is presented. The hardware of the mobile system consists of a monocular camera that is mounted on an inertial measurement unit (IMU). An image processing procedure is proposed, first to extract image features and match them across consecutive image frames, and second to detect the ground plane features using a two-step algorithm. In the first step, the planar homography of the ground plane is constructed using an IMU-camera motion estimation approach. The obtained homography constraints are used to detect the most likely ground features in the sequence of images. To reject the remaining outliers, as the second step, a new plane normal vector computation approach is proposed. To obtain the normal vector of the ground plane, only three pairs of corresponding features are used for a general camera transformation. The normal-based computation approach generalizes the existing methods that are developed for specific camera transformations. Experimental results on real data validate the reliability of the proposed method., QC 20121107

8. Projection-based atom selection in orthogonal matching pursuit for compressive sensing
- Abstract
For compressive sensing, we endeavor to improve the atom selection strategy of the existing orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm. To achieve a better estimate of the underlying support set progressively through iterations, we use a least squares solution based atom selection method. From a set of promising atoms, the choice of an atom is performed through a new method that uses orthogonal projection along-with a standard matched filter. Through experimental evaluations, the effect of projection based atom selection strategy is shown to provide a significant improvement for the support set recovery performance, in turn, the compressive sensing recovery., QC 20120803

9. Distributed Bayesian detection for the butterfly network
- Abstract
We consider a distributed detection problem where two nodes, or decision makers, observe a common source and aim to decide on one of several hypotheses. Before making their individual decisions, the nodes are allowed to communicate over rate-constrained links, through a bidirectional relay. We show that if the rate of the common relay-to-node link is greater than or equal to the rate of the individual node-to-relay links, and the individual decisions are not coupled by the cost metric, then network coding at the relay allows the overall problem to decouple into two separate two-node distributed detection problems over serial networks; and the two serial networks can be designed independently. However, if the rate of the relay-to-node link is strictly less than the node-to-relay links, no such decoupling can be assumed in general, and the overall detection network needs to be jointly designed., QC 20131210

10. Interference Alignment via Controlled Perturbations
- Abstract
In this work, we study the so-called leakage minimization problem, within the context of interference alignment (IA). For that purpose, we propose a novel approach based on controlled perturbations of the leakage function, and show how the latter can be used as a mechanism to control the algorithm's convergence (and thus tradeoff convergence speed for reliability). Although the proposed scheme falls under the broad category of stochastic optimization, we show through simulations that it has a quasi-deterministic convergence that we exploit to improve on the worst case performance of its predecessor, resulting in significantly better sum-rate capacity and average cost function value., QC 20140602, METIS

15. Test-Bed Implementation of Iterative Interference Alignment and Power Control for Wireless MIMO Interference Networks
- Abstract
This paper presents for the first time the testbed implementation of an iterative interference alignment and power control algorithm for downlink transmission in a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) cellular network. The network is composed of three cells where within each cell one base station (BS) communicates with one mobile station (MS). Each terminal is equipped with two antennas. All the BSs transmit at the same time and the same frequency band. Transmitter beamforming vectors and receiver filtering vectors are computed according to the interference alignment concept, and power control is performed to guarantee successful communication of each BS-MS pair at a desired fixed rate. The indoor measurements performed on an universal software radio peripheral (USRP) based test-bed, show that the power can be reduced by at least 4 dB, 90% of the time, while at the same time reducing the bit-error-rate (BER)., QC 20150227

16. Subspace Estimation and Decomposition for Hybrid Analog-Digital Millimetre-Wave MIMO systems
- Abstract
In this work, we address the problem of channel estimation and precoding / combining for the so-called hybrid millimeter wave (mmWave) MIMO architecture. Our proposed channel estimation scheme exploits channel reciprocity in TDD MIMO systems, by using echoing, thereby allowing us to implement Krylov subspace methods in a fully distributed way. The latter results in estimating the right (resp. left) singular subspace of the channel at the transmitter (resp. receiver). Moreover, we also tackle the problem of subspace decomposition whereby the estimated right (resp. left) singular subspaces are approximated by a cascade of analog and digital precoder (resp. combiner), using an iterative method. Finally we compare our scheme with an equivalent fully digital case and conclude that a relatively similar performance can be achieved, however, with a drastically reduced number of RF chains - 4 ~ 8 times less (i.e., massive savings in cost and power consumption)., QC 20151217
