    Network synchronization: Spectral versus statistical properties
    (Elsevier B.V., 2006-12) Atay, Fatihcan Mehmet; Bıyıkoğlu, Türker; Jost, Jürgen
    We consider synchronization of weighted networks, possibly with asymmetrical connections. Focusing on causal relations rather than the observed correlations, we show that the synchronizability of networks cannot be directly inferred from their statistical properties. Small local changes in the network structure can sensitively affect the eigenvalues relevant for synchronization, while the gross statistical network properties remain essentially unchanged. Consequently, commonly used statistical properties, including the degree distribution, degree homogeneity, average degree, average distance, degree correlation and clustering coefficient, can fail to characterize the synchronizability of networks in terms of causal relations, despite the observed correlations.

    Signals of chaotic behavior in PMMA
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science, 2003-07) Hacınlıyan, Avadis Simon; Skarlatos, Yani; Şahin, Gökhan; Akın, Güzin Gülsün
    The time evolution of the current passing through PMMA polymer thin films under 10 V at 23degreesC (296 K) was sampled at intervals ranging from 1 to 20 s. The data showed chaotic behavior in the context of pinned charge density waves [Phys. Rev. B 41 (1990) 11522]. The resultant time series has been analyzed by means of TISEAN, time series analysis software [The TISEAN package CHAOS 9 (1999) 413]. The analysis has revealed a positive maximal Lyapunov exponent. This is also corroborated by a calculation of the fractal dimension and application of the Kaplan-Yorke conjecture. In the analysis two widely separated time scales have been observed; the first zero crossing of the correlation function at 8380 s and the first marked minimum of the average mutual information at 40 s.

    Spectral correlation of a digital pulse stream modulated by a cyclostationary sequence in the presence of timing jitter
    (IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2009-02) Öner, Mustafa Mengüç
    Cyclostationarity is an inherent characteristic of many communication signals, which can be exploited for performing various signal processing tasks. Imperfections in the signal generation that affect the cyclic statistics of a signal may lead to a degradation in the performance of signal processing algorithms which make use of this cyclostationary behaviour. One typical source of imperfection encountered in digital signalling techniques is random jitter in the pulse timing. In this work, we systematically derive analytical expressions for the cyclic statistics of digital baseband signalling schemes in the presence of timing jitter, under the assumption that the generating wide sense cyclostationary data sequence and the stationary jitter process are statistically independent.

    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.

    Cyclostationarity based blind block timing estimation for alamouti coded MIMO signals
    (IEEE, 2017-06) Gül, Serhat; Öner, Mustafa Mengüç; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Blind parameter estimation algorithms provide a powerful tool for application scenarios where the use of training or pilot sequences is not desirable, e.g., in order to improve the bandwidth efficiency of the transmission, or in noncooperative scenarios where such sequences are not available to the receiver. This letter proposes a blind block timing estimation algorithm for Alamouti space-time block coded signals exploiting the second order joint cyclostationary characteristics of the received signal vector, which is induced by the space time block coding operation performed by the transmitter. The proposed algorithm outperforms the existing algorithms by a wide margin.
