Secure Communications Using Directional Modulation
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Limitations on the wireless communication resources (i.e., time and frequency) introduces the need for another domain that can help communication systems to match the increasing demand on high data transfer rates and quality ...
Enhanced Energy Extraction from a Solar Panel
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Due the movement of the sun throughout the day, the insolation level incident on the fixed panel surface varies largely. The maximum level of insolation occurs only around noon. This leads to the panel to be under-utilised. ...
Factors pertaining to academic probation of engineering students: A case study
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Ensuring normal progression of students isof paramount importance due to its financial implications in a higher education institution. An indicator that reflects how well an institution is doing in this respect is in the ...
Fast Prototyping of KNN Based Gas Discrimination System on the Zynq SoC
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Electronic noses (EN) or machine olfaction are systems used for the detection and identification of odorous compounds and gas mixtures. The accuracy of such systems is as important as the processing time. Therefore, the ...
Transformer-less Grid-Connected High-Voltage Marx Pulse Generator with Unity Power Factor for Domestic Drinking Water Disinfection
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Qatar has no rivers, thus the main natural water resource in Qatar is the groundwater table. The average groundwater recharge from rainfall is approximately 55.9 million m3/year, in addition to 2.2 million m3/year inflow ...
Environmentally Powered Smart Sensor Nodes in a Mesh Network Topology for Air Quality Diagnostic
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Background & Objective: Air pollution is a major problem that has been recognised throughout the world for hundreds of years. In the middle ages, the burning of coal in cities released increasing amounts of smoke and sulphur ...
Reduced LPV Modeling and Control of a Solution Copolymerization Reactor
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Controlling the operation of polymer reactors is a highly important task that aims at maximizing the production rate and the product quality and also minimizing the transition losses due to the high consumer demands, as ...
Estimation of highly selective channels for downlink LTE systemby a robust neural network
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In this paper we propose a robust channel estimator for the downlink of a Long Term Evolution (LTE) system using a highly selective neural network. This method uses the information provided by the reference signals to ...
A General Framework for Designing Sparse FIR MIMO Equalizers Based on Sparse Approximation
(
Hamad bin Khalifa University Press (HBKU Press)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In broadband communications, the long channel delay spread, defined as the duration in time, or samples, over which the channel impulse response (CIR) has significant energy, is too long and results in a highly-frequency-selective ...
Queue Discharge at Freeway On-Ramps Using Coordinated Operation of a Ramp Meter and an Upstream Traffic Signal
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Ramp metering is an effective way of maintaining optimum traffic conditions and mitigating congestion on freeways. Several strategies for ramp metering exist in the literature. They are typically based on the freeway traffic ...
