Performance of a non-linear adaptive beamformer algorithm for signal-of-interest extraction /
Oğuz, Özkan; Tuncer, Temel Engin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
In this thesis a non-linear adaptive beamforming technique, Adaptive Projections Subgradient Method [1] (APSM) is considered. This method uses projections over convex sets in Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space. Main advantage of this method is observed if the signal-of-interest is due to digital modulation and when there are more jammers than the number of antennas. The performance of this non-linear beamforming technique is compared with well-known methods including Minimum Variance Distortionless Response [...
A Novel Adaptive Pre Screener For Ground Penetrating Radar
Baydar, Bora; Akar, Gözde (2016-05-19)
This paper describes a novel pre-screener algorithm for landmine detection with a ground penetrating radar (GPR). The pre-screener algorithms are used for finding anomalies that are potential locations of interest. Thus, their processing time is as important as their true detection rate and false alarm rate. The proposed approach is based on Kernel Least Mean Square algorithm. Although Least Mean Square (LMS) based approach has already been used in the literature, KLMS based approach is a novel application ...
An Investigation on belief propagation decoding of polar codes
Doğan, Orkun; Diker Yücel, Melek; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2015)
Polar codes are provably symmetric capacity achieving codes for any given binary input discrete memoryless channel, with low encoding and decoding complexities. Polar codes introduced by Erdal Arıkan in 2009 are based on the channel polarization. N binary channels are synthesized out of N copies of binary input discrete memoryless channels, such that as N goes to infinity each of the synthesized channel’s capacity goes to either 0 or 1; i.e., the channels are seen purely as noisy or noiseless channels. Thes...
Wavelet domain image resolution enhancement using cycle spinning and edge modelling
Temizel, Alptekin (2005-09-08)
In this paper we present a wavelet domain image resolution en-hancement algorithm. An initial high-resolution approximation to the original image is obtained by means of zero-padding in the wavelet domain. This is further processed using the cycle-spinning methodology which reduces ringing. A critical element of the algo-rithm is the adoption of a simplified edge profile suitable for the description of edge degradations such as blurring due to loss of resolution. Linear regression using a minimal training s...
A new time-domain deconvolution algorithm and its applications
Tuncer, Temel Engin (1999-03-19)
Recently a new time-domain method has been presented for deconvolution [1]. This multidimensional method completely eliminates the problems of the previous methods in one dimension and covers a reasonable part of the solutions in multidimensions. In this paper, we present some of the properties of this method. We will especially focus on the frequency domain behaviour of the algorithm as well as the performance under numerical errors and errors due to noise. In addition we will present examples of the appli...
