    Energy harvesting cooperative multiple access channel with data arrivals
    (IEEE, 2016) Gürakan, Berk; Kaya, Onur; Ulukuş, Şennur
    We consider an energy harvesting two user cooperative Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC), where both of the users harvest energy from nature. The data packets arrive intermittently over time. The users overhear each other's transmitted signals and can cooperate by forming common messages. We find the optimal offline transmit power and rate allocation policy that maximize the departure region. We first show that there exists an optimal policy, in which the single user rate constraints in each time slot are tight, yielding a one to one relation between the powers and rates. Then, we formulate the departure region maximization problem as a weighted sum rate maximization in terms of rates only. Next, we propose a sequential convex approximation method to approximate the problem at each step and show that it converges to the optimal solution. Finally, we solve the approximate problems using an inner outer decomposition method. Numerically, we observe that higher data rates can be supported with the same amount of energy.

    Maximum likelihood blind channel estimation for space-time coding systems
    (Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2002-05) Çırpan, Hakan Ali; Panayırcı, Erdal; Çekli, Erdinç
    Sophisticated signal processing techniques have to be developed for capacity enhancement of future wireless communication systems, In recent years, space-time coding is proposed to provide significant capacity gains over the traditional communication systems in fading wireless channels. Space-time codes are obtained by combining channel coding, modulation, transmit diversity, and optional receive diversity in order to provide diversity at the receiver and coding gain without sacrificing the bandwidth. In this paper, we consider the problem of blind estimation of space-time coded signals along with the channel parameters. Both conditional and unconditional maximum likelihood approaches are developed and iterative solutions are proposed. The conditional maximum likelihood algorithm is based on iterative least squares with projection whereas the unconditional maximum likelihood approach is developed by means of finite state Markov process modelling. The performance analysis issues of the proposed methods are studied. Finally, some simulation results are presented.

    Driver recognition using gaussian mixture models and decision fusion techniques
    (Springer-Verlag Berlin, 2008) Benli, Kristin Surpuhi; Düzağaç, Remzi; Eskil, Mustafa Taner
    In this paper we present our research in driver recognition. The goal of this study is to investigate the performance of different classifier fusion techniques in a driver recognition scenario. We are using solely driving behavior signals such as break and accelerator pedal pressure, engine RPM, vehicle speed; steering wheel angle for identifying the driver identities. We modeled each driver using Gaussian Mixture Models, obtained posterior probabilities of identities and combined these scores using different fixed mid trainable (adaptive) fusion methods. We observed error rates is low as 0.35% in recognition of 100 drivers using trainable combiners. We conclude that the fusion of multi-modal classifier results is very successful in biometric recognition of a person in a car setting.

    Achieving the capacity region boundary of fading CDMA channels via generalized iterative waterfilling
    (IEEE, 2006-11) Kaya, Onur; Ulukuş, Şennur
    We characterize the optimum power control policies that achieve arbitrary rate tuples on the boundary of the, capacity region of a power controlled, code division multiple access (CDMA) system in a fading channel with perfect channel state information (CSI). We propose a "generalized" waterfilling approach, and provide an iterative algorithm that solves for the optimum power allocation policy, for A given arbitrary rate tuple on the boundary of the capacity region. We then investigate the effects of limited feedback on the capacity region, and demonstrate that a good power control policy may require only a very low rate feedback.

    MIMO sinyalleri için uzay-zaman blok kodu klasifikasyonu
    (IEEE, 2014-04-26) Turan, Merve; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Bilinmeyen haberleşme sinyallerinin gözü kapalı ve işbirliksiz tanınması için geliştirilen teknikler, hem askeri hem de sivil uygulamalarda kullanım bulmuştur. Çok Girdili Çok Çıktılı (MIMO) haberleşme sistemleri, sinyal tanıma sistemleri için üstesinden gelinmesi gereken yeni problemler ortaya koymaktadır. MIMO haberleşmesinde kullanılan uzay zaman kodlarının gözükapalı tanınması bu problemlerin en önemlilerinden biri olarak görülebilir. Bu çalışmada uzay zaman blok kodlanmış sinyal vektörlerinin döngüsel-durağan (cyclostationary) karakteristiklerinin farklı uzay zaman blok kodlarını birbirinden ayırdetmek amacıyla kullanıldığı yenilikçi uzay-zaman kodu tanıma algoritmaları öneriyoruz.

    Power control in the cognitive cooperative multiple access channel
    (IEEE, 2012) Kaya, Onur; İşleyen, Murat
    We extend several encoding and decoding techniques from cooperative communications framework, to a cognitive radio system consisting of a primary user (PU) and a secondary user (SU), sending their messages to a common receiver. Assuming that the transmitters and the receiver have full channel state information (CSI) collected and distributed by the common receiver, and that the SU knows the PU's codebook, the cooperation is obtained by block Markov superposition coding, and backwards decoding, which yield a causal overlay scenario. We formulate two rate optimization problems with the aim of, (i) maximizing the sum rate of the system, and (ii) maximizing the rate of the secondary user. We obtain the optimal power allocations for both cases, and the resulting rate regions. The power controlled cooperation turns out to be especially useful when maximizing the sum rate of the system, as it gives the PU significant rate rewards for allowing the cognitive transmitter to access its resources.

    Channel adaptive encoding and decoding strategies and rate regions for the three user cooperative multiple access channel
    (IEEE, 2008) Edemen, Çağatay; Kaya, Onur
    For a cooperative Gaussian multiple access channel (MAC), we propose a new channel adaptive three user cooperation strategy, based on a non-trivial extension of block Markov super-position encoding. We obtain the expressions for the resulting achievable rate region. We demonstrate through simulations that the participation of an extra user in cooperation provides significant rate improvements. The proposed strategy also improves upon our earlier results on the three user cooperative MAC [1], under certain channel conditions.

    Compression of the biomedical images using quadtree-based partitioned universally classified energy and pattern blocks
    (Springer London, 2019-03-15) Gezer, Murat; Gargari, Sepideh Nahavandi; Güz, Ümit; Gürkan, Hakan
    In this work, an efficient low bit rate image coding/compression method based on the quadtree-based partitioned universally classified energy and pattern building blocks (QB-UCEPB) is introduced. The proposed method combines low bit rate robustness and variable-sized quantization benefits of the well-known classified energy and pattern blocks (CEPB) method and quadtree-based (QB) partitioning technique, respectively. In the new method, first, the QB-UCEPB is constructed in the form of variable length block size thanks to the quadtree-based partitioning rather than fixed block size partitioning which was employed in the conventional CEPB method. The QB-UCEPB is then placed to the transmitter side as well as receiver side of the communication channel as a universal codebook manner. Every quadtree-based partitioned block of the input image is encoded using three quantities: image block scaling coefficient, the index number of the QB-UCEB and the index number of the QB-UCPB. These quantities are sent from the transmitter part to the receiver part through the communication channel. Then, the quadtree-based partitioned input image blocks are reconstructed in the receiver part using a decoding algorithm, which exploits the mathematical model that is proposed. Experimental results show that using the new method, the computational complexity of the classical CEPB is substantially reduced. Furthermore, higher compression ratios, PSNR and SSIM levels are achieved even at low bit rates compared to the classical CEPB and conventional methods such as SPIHT, EZW and JPEG2000

    Joint space time block code and modulation classification for MIMO systems
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc, 2017-02) Bayer, Özgür; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç
    Non-cooperative identification of unknown communication signals is a popular research area with widespread civilian and military applications. Multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems employing multi-antenna transmission pose new challenges to signal identification systems, such as the classification of the employed space time block code (STBC) and modulation in the presence of the self-interference inherent to the multi-antenna transmission. In the existing literature, these two classification problems have been handled separately, despite the fact that they are interrelated. This letter presents a novel approach to MIMO signal identification by considering the modulation type and the STBC classification tasks as a joint classification problem.

    On the spectral correlation of UWB impulse radio signals
    (IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2008-10) Öner, Mustafa Mengüç
    Cyclostationarity is an inherent characteristic of many communication signals, which can be exploited for performing various signal processing tasks. Determining the cyclic statistics of a signal of interest is often necessary in the design of signal processing systems exploiting this cyclostationary behaviour. This work investigates the second order cyclic statistics of various signalling schemes employed in ultra wideband impulse radio systems. Analytical expressions are derived for the cyclic autocorrelation and spectral correlation density functions.
