Performance of neural network based restoration of optical networks is evaluated and a few possible improvements are proposed. Neural network based restoration is simulated with optical link capacities assigned by a new method. Two new improvement methods are developed to reduce the neural network size and the restoration time of severed optical connections. Cycle based restoration is suggested, which reduces the neural network structure by restoring the severed connections for each optical node, iteratively. Additionally, to reduce the restoration time, the necessary waiting time before the neuron outputs fire for the propagation delay over the network is computed and embedded in the control structure of the neural network. The improvement methods are evaluated by simulations in terms of restorability, restoration time, network redundancy and average length of restoration paths for different failure cases and different security requirements.

A new feedback-based contention avoidance algorithm for optical burst switching networks Toku, Hadi Alper; Schmidt, Şenan Ece; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008) In this thesis, a feedback-based contention avoidance technique based on weighted Dijkstra algorithm is proposed to address the contention avoidance problem for Optical Burst Switching networks. Optical Burst Switching (OBS) has been proposed as a promising technique to support high-bandwidth, bursty data traffic in the next-generation optical Internet. Nevertheless, there are still some challenging issues that need to be solved to achieve an effective implementation of OBS. Contention problem occurs when t...
An FPGA implementation of real-time electro-optic & IR image fusion Çölova, İbrahim Melih; Akar, Gözde; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2010) In this thesis, a modified 2D Discrete Cosine Transform based electro-optic and IR image fusion algorithm is proposed and implemented on an FPGA platform. The platform is a custom FPGA board which uses ALTERA Stratix III family FPGA. The algorithm is also compared with state of the art image fusion algorithms by means of an image fusion software application GUI developed in Matlab®. The proposed algorithm principally takes corresponding 4x4 pixel blocks of two images to be fused and transforms them by means...
Improvements in DOA estimation by array interpolation in non-uniform linear arrays Yaşar, Temel Kaya; Tuncer, Temel Engin; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2006) In this thesis a new approach is proposed for non-uniform linear arrays (NLA) which employs conventional subspace methods to improve the direction of arrival (DOA) estimation performance. Uniform linear arrays (ULA) are composed of evenly spaced sensor elements located on a straight line. ULA's covariance matrix have a Vandermonde matrix structure, which is required by fast subspace DOA estimation algorithms. NLA differ from ULA only by some missing sensor elements. These missing elements cause some gaps in...
Methodology for performance analysis of randomly-spread CDMA systems over multipath fading channels via crosscorrelation matrix non-asymptotic average eigenvalue densities Ertug, O; Baykal, Buyurman; Unal, BS (Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), 2003-08-07) A new methodology for closed-form theoretical performance analysis of randomly-spread CDMA systems over multipath fading channels with multiuser receivers is presented. The basis of the analysis is the representation of the random signal to interference ratios at finite system parameters in terms of the eigenvalues of crosscorrelation matrices for which the non-asymptotic average densities are found or known, The methodology presented complements the asymptotic Ruining theory used in similar previous work o...
Capacitive cmos readout circuits for high performance mems accelerometers Kepenek, Reha; Külah, Haluk; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2008) This thesis presents the development of high resolution, wide dynamic range sigma-delta type readout circuits for capacitive MEMS accelerometers. Designed readout circuit employs fully differential closed loop structure with digital output, achieving high oversampling ratio and high resolution. The simulations of the readout circuit together with the accelerometer sensor are performed using the models constructed in Cadence and Matlab Simulink environments. The simulations verified the stability and proper ...
