On ergodic capacity of wireless transmission subject to poisson distributed interferers over rayleigh fading channels
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Poisson point process has been widely adopted in the analysis of co-channel interference in dense frequency reuse systems. With the decaying power law, the aggregate co-channel interference in Poisson field can be viewed ...
Novel cooperative communication schemes with interference management for multi-user wireless networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Cooperative communication is a promising technique for future wireless networks. It can be used in improving communication reliability, and enhancing power and spectrum efficiency. However, its performance gain degrades ...

IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Stroke recovery from offline handwriting is a very interesting research field. However, no standard benchmark is available for researchers in this field. The aim of this competition is to gather researchers and compare ...
Systolic architecture for hardware implementation of two-dimensional non-separable filter-bank
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present an efficient poly-phase decomposition scheme for implementation of 2-D non-separable filter bank. Poly-phase decomposition scheme offers multiplexing of filter bank computations or/and reduce the ...
