Perceptual Video Quality Model and its Application in Wireless Multimedia Communications
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
With the exponential growth of video traffic over wireless networked and embedded
devices such as mobile phones and sensors, mechanisms are needed to predict the perceptual
quality of video in real time and with low ...
Characterization of a Structure Consisting of Magnetostatic Responsive Microscopic Particles and Its Applications In Antennas
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Wireless communication systems often require that a single antenna work
at different frequencies. Thus the recon gurable antennas are useful in frequency
agile environments to receive a signal over multiple bands. Research ...
Utilizing Recommender Systems as an Analysis Tool for Measuring Network Dynamics
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Recommender systems apply numerous knowledge discovery techniques to suggest the preferred products, information, or service on contextual data. In our study, we utilize the recommender system for analyzing and measuring ...
CMOS Phase Shifter for Conformal Phased Array Beamformer Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
A vector modulator based phase shifter is developed using 0.18um CMOS process at S-band frequency to be integrated into a conformal phased array antenna to recover the desired radiation pattern in the entire 360° range. ...
Individualized Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy: Next Generation Pacemaker Controls
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Cardiac dyssynchrony (CD) causes some heart muscle regions to contract at different times, and current treatments do not help 30 – 50% of patients. In this thesis, multi-site pacing control schemes are created to quantitatively ...
Power System Stability Enhancement through Data Center Ancillary Services
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
The primary objective of a control system is stability and steady-state performance under varying dynamics, such as faults and disturbances. The stable power system should continue to function properly in case of faults ...
Enhanced Augmented Reality Framework for Sports Entertainment Applications
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Augmented Reality (AR) superimposes virtual information on real-world data, such as displaying useful information on videos/images of a scene. This dissertation presents an Enhanced AR (EAR) framework for displaying useful ...
Energy Efficient Data Centers for On-Demand Cloud Services
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
The primary objective of the Data Centers (DCs) is to provide in-time services to the cloud customers. For in-time services, DCs required an uninterruptable power supply at low cost. The DCs’ power supply is directly linked ...
A Far-Field Radio Frequency Experimental Exposure System and 31 Day Exposure Experiment on Understanding Mice
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Many studies have been performed on exploring the effects of radio frequency energy on biological function in vivo. In particular, gene expression results have been inconclusive due, in part, to a lack of a standardized ...
The Capillary-Centric Model of Coupling-As-Thermodynamics
(North Dakota State University, 2015)
Models of ventricular-arterial coupling (VAC) have historically described the heart as a
function of its energetic interaction with the arterial system. However, these models either
represent the dynamic, adaptive ...
