Energy or DFT detector using a fixed window size is very efficient when signal start time and duration is matched with that of the window's. However, in the case of unknown signal duration, the performance of this detector decreases. For this scenario, a detector system composed of multiple windows may be preferred. Window sizes of such a system will also be fixed beforehand but they will be different from each other. Therefore, one of the windows will better match the signal duration, giving better detection results. In this study, multiple window detectors are analyzed. Their false alarm and detection probability relations are investigated. Some exact and approximate values are derived for these probabilities. A rule of thumb for the choice of window lengths is suggested for the case of fixed number of windows. Detectors with overlapping window structure are considered for the signals with unknown delay. Simulation results are added for these types of detectors.

Multi-scan data association algorithm for multitarget tracking Ağırnas, Emre; Demirbaş, Kerim; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2004) Data association problem for multitarget tracking is determination of the relationship between targets and the incoming measurements from sensors of the target tracking system. Performance of a multitarget tracking system is strongly related to the chosen method for data association and target tracking algorithm. Incorrect data association effects state estimation of targets. In this thesis, we propose a new multi-scan data association algorithm for multitarget tracking systems. This algorithm was implement...
Congestion control for the available bit rate (abr) service in asychronous transfer mode (atm) networks Özzaman, Hülya Bozkurt; Leblebicioğlu, Mehmet Kemal; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005) Congestion control is concerned with allocating the resources in a network such that the network can operate at an acceptable performance level when the demand exceeds or is near the capacity of the network resources. These resources include bandwidths of links, buffer space (memory) and processing capacity at intermediate nodes. Although resource allocation is necessary even at low load, the problem becomes more important as the load increases. Without proper congestion control mechanisms, the throughput m...
Noncoherent differential demodulation of CPM signals with joint frequency offset and symbol timing estimation Çulha, Onur; Tanık, Yalçın; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) In this thesis, noncoherent differential demodulation of CPM signals with joint carrier frequency offset and symbol timing estimation is investigated. CPM is very attractive for wireless communications owing to major properties: good spectral efficiency and a constant envelope property. In order to demodulate the received CPM signal differentially, the symbol timing and the carrier frequency offset have to be estimated accurately. There are numerous methods developed for the purpose. However, we have not en...
Interception techniques for direct sequence spread spectrum signals Karadeniz, Uygar; Baykal, Buyurman; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2005) In this work interception and spreading sequence estimation of Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) signals, in low signal to noise power ratios is discussed. For interception an approach based on autocorrelation fluctuations is employed and also symbol period is estimated from this interception process. Spreading sequence estimation is performed by using eigenanalysis of the correlation matrix and estimated symbol period. These approaches are applied on different kinds of DSSS signals including 3rd gener...
Speech enhancement utilizing phase continuity between consecutive analysis windows Mehmetcik, Erdal; Çiloğlu, Tolga; Candan, Çağatay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011) It is commonly accepted that the induced noise on DFT phase spectrum has a negligible effect on speech intelligibility for short durations of analysis windows, as the early intelligibility studies pointed out. This fact is confirmed by recent intelligibility studies as well. Based on this phenomenon, classical speech enhancement algorithms do not modify DFT phase spectrum and only make changes in the DFT magnitude spectrum. However, in recent studies it is also indicated that these classical speech enhancem...
