A Negative Dielectrophoresis Based Method of Detecting Pancreatic Cancer Antigen CA 242 in Serum
(North Dakota State University, 2020)
Patients with pancreatic cancer in metastasis rarely survive, thus the need for diagnostic tools for early stage detection. Current techniques such as ELISA and SPR are complex and expensive and cannot detect cancer in its ...
The Design and Analysis of a Microstrip Line Which Utilizes Capacitive Gaps and Magnetic Responsive Particles to Vary the Reactance of the Surface Impedance
(North Dakota State University, 2019)
This thesis presents the work of using magnetic responsive particles as a method to manipulate the surface impedance reactance of a microstrip line containing uniform capacitive gaps and cavities containing the particles. ...
The Interaction of Radio Frequency and Lambda DNA
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
By exposing an aqueous DNA solution to a spectrum of radio frequency (RF) energy this research identifies frequencies, if any, where DNA interacts with RF energy. Interaction is determined by the amount of RF energy either ...
A Novel Batteryless Pacemaker: Design, Development, and In Vivo Study in an Ovine Model
(North Dakota State University, 2017)
A standard pacemaker can improve a patient's quality of life and may even prolong it, but conventional pacemakers contain leads and batteries, which have their own complications. Hence, the need for a pacemaker with leadless ...
Analysis of Secrecy in Multi-User Wireless Network
(North Dakota State University, 2018)
We consider an Ergodic Fading Broadcast Channel with one Legitimate receiver and one Eavesdropper (BCoLoE) having arbitrary fading statistics, where the instantaneous Channel State Information (CSI) are known only at the ...
Fault Tolerant and Adaptive Systems with Focus on Networks-On-Chips
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
The first step in design of reliable systems is the ability to evaluate the reliability of the system. This is an important step in the process of designing reliable systems because design techniques that proactively improve ...
Equivalence Verification for NULL Convention Logic and Latency-Insensitive Circuits
(North Dakota State University, 2016)
NULL convention logic and latency-insensitive circuits are delay-tolerant circuits that can
be synthesized from a synchronous speci cation. These design paradigms can use existing CAD
ows to implement circuits that are ...
On Authentication of Long Messages in Short Time for Resource Constrained Sensor Networks
(North Dakota State University, 2013)
This thesis is a collection of three different research contributions targeted towards
providing faster message authentication for long messages which have been recently accepted or
submitted for publication. The first ...
Network Convergence in Multicarrier Hybrid Cellular Network
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
In a multicarrier communication system with known channel state information at transmitter (CSIT), it is well-known that the water-filling power allocation scheme is optimal in achieving the Shannon capacity. However, in ...
On the Secrecy Capacity of Fading Gaussian Wire-Tap Channel
(North Dakota State University, 2014)
We consider the so called “wire-tap channel”, where a transmitter sends secret information to its receiver in the presence of an eavesdropping receiver with similar signal processing capability as the desired receiver. It ...
