▼ The presence of various uncertainties in control systems is one of the main challenging issues to engineers since this problem in real applications gives rise to instability and degradation of tracking performance. This dissertation addresses analysis and control design problems involving linear and nonlinear systems with structured and unstructured uncertainties. In the first problem, the critical direction theory (CDT) an H-infinity design is proposed as a systematic controller synthesis methodology for systems with parametric uncertainties. In the literature, a significant conservatism issue in this study of such uncertain systems withe respect to robust control design has been reported. First, the mechanisms leading to conservatism in an earlier approach utilizing a constant overbounding uncertainty template are analyzed. Then, motivated by the desire to decrease the conservative uncertainty, a static weight approach based on the CDT is examined using a constant value to describe the uncertainties over all frequencies. This approach shows that the CDT combined with H-infinity is effective and promising for less conservative stability and controller synthesis for systems with uncertainties. The second is a study of the problem of the robustness of MIMO systems with parametric uncertainties. Two criteria that are used to assess the stability of MIMO systems are evaluated. A numerical analysis provides an empirical demonstration of the relationship between the two stability margins. The dissertation then proceeds to the study of design methods for systematic adaptive controls combined with robustness for uncertain nonlinear systems. The most common technique in designing a controller for a nonlinear system is to assume the nonlinear dynamics are exactly known, but in fact system nonlinearities are unknown in real applications. To overcome the uncertainties in nonlinear systems, a wavelet neural network (WNN) identifier with a sliding mode controller (SMC) proposed. Then, a Robust Integral of the Sign of the Error (RISE) feedback control based on WNN identifier is used to attenuate the effect of the wavelet network approximation error and exogenous disturbance. The proposed method ensures asymptotic tracking of a desired reference signal. A simulation of controlling memristor based chaotic system illustrates the effectiveness of the proposed approach and its performance in the presence of disturbances, and the result is supported through rigorous Lyapunov-based stability proofs. Then, an adaptive robust tracking control scheme using a multi-layer neural network (NN) for a class of nonlinear dynamic systems with unknown time varying states is addressed. Typical adaptive NN backstepping controllers for uncertain nonlinear systems with time-delay give rise to computation complexity caused by the the repeated derivatives of virtual controllers and nonlinear functions. Moreover, the combined techniques usually result in only uniformly ultimately bounded (UUB) stability due to the inherent NN approximation error. First, we… Advisors/Committee Members: Latchman, Haniph A (committee chair), Mcnair, Janise Y (committee member), Fitz-Coy, Norman G (committee member).

▼ Power control in the Physical Layer of a communication network is used to ensure that each link achieves its target signal-to-interference plus-noise ratio (SINR) to effect communication in the reverse link (uplink) of a wireless cellular communication network. In cellular systems using direct-sequence code-division multiple access (CDMA), the SINR depends inversely on the power assigned to the other users in the system, creating a nonlinear control problem. Due to the spreading of bands in CDMA based cellular communication networks, the interference in the system is mitigated. The non-linearity now arises by the uncertain random phenomena across the radio link, causing detrimental effects to the signal power that is desired at the base station. Mobility of the terminals, along with associated random shadowing and multi-path fading present in the radio link, results in uncertainty in the channel parameters. To quantify these effects, a nonlinear MIMO discrete differential equation is built with the SINR of the radio-link as the state to analyze the behavior of the network. Controllers are designed based on analysis of this networked system, and power updates are obtained from the control law. Analysis is also provided to examine how mobility and the desired SINR regulation range affects the choice of channel update times. Realistic wireless network mobility models are used for simulation and the power control algorithm formulated from the control development is verified on this mobility model for acceptable communication. In the Medium Access Control (MAC) layer of a wireless network that uses Carrier Sense Multiple Access (CSMA), the performance is limited by collisions that occur because of carrier sensing delays associated with propagation and the sensing electronics, and hidden terminals in the network. A continuous-time Markov model is used to analyze and optimize the performance of a system using CSMA with collisions caused by sensing delays. The throughput of the network is quantified using the stationary distribution of the Markov model. An online algorithm is developed for the unconstrained throughput maximization problem. Further, a constrained problem is formulated and solved using a numerical algorithm. Simulations are provided to analyze and validate the solution to the unconstrained and constrained optimization problems. Network packet traffic in the transport layer of Internet-style networks plays a vital role in affecting the throughput in the MAC layer. Common queue length management techniques on nodes in such networks focus on servicing the packets based on their Quality of Service (QoS) requirements (e.g., Differentiated-Services, or DiffServ, networks). In Chapter 4, continuous control strategies are suggested for a DiffServ network to track the desired ensemble average queue length level in the Premium and Ordinary Service buffers specified by the network operator. A Lyapunov-based stability analysis is provided to illustrate global asymptotic tracking of the ensemble average queue length of the… Advisors/Committee Members: Dixon, Warren E (committee chair), Mcnair, Janise Y (committee member), Barooah, Prabir (committee member).

▼ Powerline Communication (PLC) is one of the most promising candidates for use in home network technologies. Although the powerline was originally designed for electrical power transmission at 50 or 60 Hz, it is also possible to transmit broadband signals at higher frequencies. One of the most attractive features of PLC is its whole house accessibility because a large number of powerline outlets are available in typical homes and offices. This dissertation is mostly focused on multimedia communication and home networks on PLC channel. First, we investigate generally available home networking standards and technologies such as HomePNA, MoCA, HomePlug AV, IEEE 802.11, G.hn, and IEEE P1905. Then, their advantages and disadvantages are compared in terms of data rate, QoS,accessibility, costs, and security. In order to guarantee QoS for PLC multimedia networks, a modified CSMA/CA MAC algorithm is proposed. The proposed MAC algorithm is based on the IEEE 802.11e and the Home Plug 1.0 MAC protocol.Despite the advantageous of PLC there are several hurdles to achieving reliable high speed communications over the Garth PLC channel conditions. For example, oneof the typical features of the powerline channel is impulsive noise which degrades the PLC performance. Therefore, we first propose an impulsive noisemitigation scheme with a threshold setting algorithm. Then, LDPC codes withadaptive multi-carrier OFDM are applied to improve the bit error rate of our system on powerline channels. The comparison between LDPC codes and turbo codes is simulated with different block sizes. Finally, QC-LDPC codes are designed for better error correcting efficiency with less memory storage. The main advantages of the encoding procedure for QC-LDPC codes are their ease of implementation and relatively simple structure. QC-LDPC codes using various block sizes andcode rates are compared. We also compare turbo codes with QC-LDPC codes withG.hn standard on real PLC channels. When SNR is 2 dB or more, error rates of (8640,4320)QC-LDPC code are 10 percentage or less of error rates of turbo code.

▼ Optical Networking with Wavelength Division Multiplexing (WDM) has the immense potential to satisfy the future needs of avionics systems (both military and commercial), due to huge bandwidth, low interference, reliability, light weight and the potential for a unified network with protocol independence. Moreover, the predominantly passive nature of the optical components provides for greater simplicity and robustness and has the potential to deliver lower life-cycle costs, in spite of the significantly higher bandwidth and greater levels of integration optical networks will be expected to support. Despite these many major advantages, there are many challenges when considering optical network technology to realize a high-performance, local-area network (LAN) onboard an aircraft. It requires continually feeding data to and receiving data from many different subsystems, from life-sustaining to weather sensors. Additionally, the aerospace environment is very hostile and imposes many constraints on the system design. So to design a network that strictly meets the requirements of the avionics community poses an increasingly difficult challenge. In an attempt to leverage the strengths of current and emerging optical networking technologies as a potent for future avionic applications, an X-Y routing based two-tiered Torus Architecture with redundant ports (XYTARP) is proposed. It is imperative that the system be fault tolerant to ensure its availability even during harsh environments to serve the mission critical avionic applications. A fault tolerant routing algorithm is proposed that provides optimal performance in the absence of faults, shows minimal degradation in the presence of faults, and can tolerate reasonable number of faults based on their physical occurrence. In the presence of fault, the routing algorithm dynamically reroute the packets along non-faulty links. A library of optical components is modeled in Artifex, a discrete-event simulator, and the proposed XYTARP architecture and routing protocols are built and evaluated above this library. The computer aided modeling approach to network design proves its advantage in terms of flexibility in design, cost and time delay associated with building and testing of physical test bed. Various experimental scenarios are considered to test the fault tolerance of the network and the design proves to sustain the minimum requirement of three network faults in a worst case scenario. The three main contributions in this work include architecture analysis, resource management and routing, and fault tolerance analysis. Various possible architectures are evaluated for the current application and the advantages of the proposed mesh torus architecture are analyzed. An efficient circular wavelength assignment strategy is proposed along with the X-Y routing protocol for the XYTARP and is analyzed using virtual prototyping and simulations. The importance of fault isolation, detection and recovery mechanism is analyzed and accordingly the routing protocols are modified to provide… Advisors/Committee Members: McNair, Janise Y.

▼ In wireless networks, interference is one of the major impairments that deteriorates the performance of a system. Conventional channel-sharing schemes such as TDMA, FDMA, CDMA, etc, orthogonalize the channel resources among users to minimize interference. However, information-theoretic results indicate that orthogonalization of the channel resources is not the most efficient way to transmit to multiple users. We use the term overlapped transmission to describe non-orthogonal transmission schemes because these schemes allocate the same channel resources to more than one user, thus overlapping their transmissions. We conducted an investigation into the potential benefits of overlapped transmissions as well as practical approaches to overlapped transmission in both cellular and ad hoc wireless networks. We first analyzed the potential of overlapped transmissions to improve the performance of wireless cellular networks. We considered the use of cooperative broadcasting techniques in the downlink of a cellular network to support additional users compared to a system that orthogonalizes the channel resources among the users, such as TDMA, FDMA, CDMA, etc. We evaluated the performance gains of cooperative broadcasting techniques in terms of number of users that can be supported by the base station in a cellular network when the number of users in the system is finite. We also evaluated the user capacity of a cooperative broadcasting system, when the number of users in the system is large. We compared the performance of the optimal broadcasting to several optimal and suboptimal forward-link channel-sharing schemes. Next, we studied the use of overlapped transmission in ad hoc networks to improve the spatial re-use and throughput of the network. We showed how multihop routing can result in mobile radios having knowledge of interfering signals during the reception of a transmission. We then demonstrated how this knowledge can be exploited to schedule additional transmissions by performing interference cancellation at the physical layer. We evaluated the performance limits of employing overlapped transmissions in wireless ad hoc networks with randomly distributed nodes. We developed a MAC protocol that takes advantage of the knowledge of the interfering signals to schedule additional transmissions, thereby increasing the spatial re-use and throughput of the network. We evaluated the performance of this MAC protocol in a variety of network scenarios and compared to that of IEEE 802.11 MAC protocol. We also analyzed the impact of overlapped transmissions on the performance of Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) in wireless ad hoc networks. ( en ) Advisors/Committee Members: Shea, John M.

▼ A wireless sensor network consists of a large collection of sensors that are sampling one or more environment variables and forwarding the measurements toward data sinks. In most applications, there is a need to associate the data with the location where the measurements are taken to deliver meaningful information to the user. As result, many localization schemes have been developed. Unfortunately, the majority of these schemes assume a non-hostile environment and consequently are susceptible to security attacks. Recently, researchers have begun to focus on secure localization schemes. However, most of these schemes are complex and possibly too processing-intensive for the limited-capabilities sensors. Location Verification is a promising approach to enhance the robustness of localization schemes in wireless sensor networks. The objective of a location verification scheme is to verify whether the claim of a node about its location is true or not. By combing a relatively simple (non-secure) localization scheme with location verification, one could obtain a more robust hybrid localization scheme. This approach provides modularity (one can pick another localization scheme without affecting the overall protocol) and selectivity (verification to selected nodes or regions in the network) and hence a less expensive process for the network. In this dissertation, we study the use of location verification to enhance the robustness and security of localization. First, we propose a communication range based location verification scheme (CORVA). Although location verification has been discussed before in literature, this is the first point tunable communication range-based location verification protocol proposed. We study the coverage probability of the proposed scheme both analytically and through simulation. In addition, we perform a security analysis on the proposed scheme to assess its robustness to various attacks that may hinder the protocol operation. Our results show that a high coverage could be achieved using a relatively small number of verifiers. Moreover, we demonstrate that the proposed protocol is robust against location spoofing attacks. Then, we study how to schedule the verification service, and propose a scheduling scheme based on random access. Results show a high service throughput while maintaining a reasonable response delay its performance is better than TDMA-like clustering-based schemes when the interference between clusters is taken into account. We then turn our attention to study the problem of the impact of localization error on the performance of location verification. We examine how our proposed CORVA protocol with respect to how the verification probability varies with error parameters. We also present an abstract model to study the problem in a more general setting. Based on the proposed model, we analyze four combinations of localization and location verification schemes. Our study indicates that an effective verification protocol must have a built-in mechanism to handle effectively the… Advisors/Committee Members: McNair, Janise Y. (committee chair), Shea, John M.

▼ Present day commercial automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems still pale in comparison to the human ability to recognize speech. The inherent non-stationarity associated with the timing of speech signals, as well as the dynamical changes in the environment make the ensuing analysis and recognition extremely difficult. For decades, researchers have tried to mimic biology for improving machine recognition and ASR is no exception. Widely used and accepted Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients, for example, try to develop more effective filter banks by looking at the tonotopical distribution of the hair cells along the basilar membrane. However, all these approaches stem only from psychoacoustical and anatomical considerations. This research aims to take this biological inspiration one step further by imitating some of the dynamical computation of our auditory system via describing a biologically plausible algorithm that exclusively utilizes spikes in both the feature extraction and recognition stages. The main goal of this research is to investigate the computation potential of spike trains produced at the early stages of the auditory system for a simple acoustic classification task. The system makes use of an inner hair cell model to convert sound pressure waves into physical membrane motion which is then converted into a spiking representation at the nerve fibers centered at different frequencies. Different spike coding schemes from temporal to rate coding are explored, as well as different spike-based encoders with various simplicity levels such as rank order coding and liquid state machine. The spiking data is analyzed using different coding schemes one of which considers the phase synchrony among different nerve fibers. A phase synchrony plot is constructed which shows the degree of synchrony at various frequencies. This plot is used as a means to detect the features inherent in the vowel signal, namely formant frequencies. The experiments prove that this yields a spike-based, noise robust feature set for the analysis of speech signals. This research also introduces a duplex theory of spike coding in the early stages of the auditory system based on the intensity and noise levels of the acoustic stimuli. According to this concept, at low intensity levels, where auditory nerve firings cannot generate a high enough synchrony among neuron ensembles, rate coding is more likely favored against phase-locking via synchrony coding. To the contrary, at conversational intensity levels, phase synchrony coding is preferred due to its superior and highly noise robust performance. The theory is supported by both evidence from biology, as well as from experimental simulations using biologically plausible models of the entire processing chain from spike generation to recognition. Based on these findings, a biologically plausible system architecture is proposed for the recognition of phonetically simple acoustic signals which makes exclusive use of spikes for computation. The prototype biological system is demonstrated on voiced… Advisors/Committee Members: Harris, John G. (committee chair), McNair, Janise Y. (committee member), Principe, Jose C.

▼ Real-time applications such as streaming multimedia will be supported in the next generation wireless networks. Services required by these applications are different from file transfer services in that they expect low transmission delay, i.e., delay-constrained communications. Providing quality of service (QoS) guarantees to multimedia applications poses a significant challenge for the design of wireless networks. This dissertation focuses on the power and resource allocation schemes for delay-constrained communications, with statistical QoS requirements characterized by the triplet of data rate, delay bound, and delay bound violation probability. We study the optimal power control and resource allocation schemes to provide statistical QoS guarantees, which are more challenging than providing average delay guarantees, since statistical QoS imposes constraints on the distribution of transmission delay. In the first part of the dissertation, we study the throughput maximization problem subject to the delay bound violation probability and average power constraint, for a single-user, single-channel system. The buffer size is assumed to be infinite and the delay bound is relatively large. This problem is actually the effective capacity maximization problem, which is defined as the maximum data rate a system can sustain under the statistical QoS constraint, in large delay regime. We propose a simple cross-layer suboptimal power control scheme which significantly increases the effective capacity comparing to the optimal channel-gain-based power control scheme. We also investigate the impact of delayed channel state information on the performance of power control schemes. Finally, we study the joint power and channel allocation scheduler for a multi-user, multi-channel system, based on the effective capacity and reference channel approach. The scheduling algorithm explicitly guarantees users' statistical QoS requirements while minimizing the resource usage. In the second part of the dissertation, we study the dual problem, minimizing the delay bound violation probability, subject to an average power constraint and throughput constraint. The transmission buffer size is assumed to be finite (small delay regime). Therefore the delay bound violation probability translates to buffer fullness probability, or packet drop probability. The queuing behavior with a finite size buffer is quite different from that of an infinite size buffer. We analyze the fundamental limit of power control performances over continuous wireless channels for finite size buffer models. Dynamic programming techniques, which are used to address the control of queueing systems under discrete channel models, will result performance degradation due to quantization. Our method is to decompose the original optimization problem into three sub-problems, and sequentially solve the three sub-problems. We prove that the two problems have the same optimal solution. By solving the sub-problems, we provide structural information about the optimal solution. The optimal… Advisors/Committee Members: Wu, Dapeng (committee chair), McNair, Janise Y.

▼ Recently, we have been experiencing remarkable advance in remote sensing technology and it allows us to capture large classes of natural processes and phenomenon at different resolutions with confident levels of qualities. For example, data acquisition over specific topographic environment by employing high spatial resolution sensor is extremely useful in monitoring detail physical and biological processes of the Earth?s surface. As data acquisition techniques become sophisticated using more accurate sensing devices, the demands for processing obtained data sets are more diverse and complex. In this dissertation, we develop data fusion methods to process image sets obtained by heterogeneous sources at different resolutions. This fusion scenario is based upon the idea that tries to combine image sets differing resolutions by employing robust and efficient signal processing scheme like multi-scale estimation framework. Since the data collection processes have been performed by different methods and for different purposes, merging process is not a trivial task. Despite of this technical difficulty, real world remote sensing applications require information that is insufficient to be interpreted by a single sensor measurement. Since individual sensor employed is operated in certain acquisition geometries (e.g. altitude, distance or viewing angle), this turns disparate coverage and accuracy characteristics on obtained data. A number of attempts have been made to combine data from different sensors, but existing methods are often empirical based [Sorenson, 1970]. Successful data fusion becomes especially difficult when the sensors involved have significantly different acquisition methods, wavelengths, and resolutions. To overcome this difficulty, this study shows the efforts to build robust image processing framework for combining (fusing) complementary multi-resolution image data sets. The contributions of this work are summarized as: (1) constructing statistically optimal fusion method utilizing multi-scale estimation framework such that one can efficiently obtain fused image estimate and its confident measure (uncertainty) at desired resolution, (2) developing new multi-scale fusion techniques to find solutions for computationally challenging fusion situations, and (3) extending multi-scale estimation techniques to generate both visually and analytically improved fused image at the finest resolution by mitigating pixel blocky artifacts commonly arising when the resolutions of the images being fused are differed by large orders of magnitudes and image pixel voids at fine-scale are severe.
