Optimum and suboptimum blind channel and symbol estimation for SISO channels

2004-12-01
We present three methods for blind channel and symbol identification from a single or multi-block observation. These methods are deterministic approaches suitable for the identification of quickly changing wireless channels. The first method uses the finite alphabet property and it has good performance even for noisy observations. It requires only a single data frame, which is a unique feature of the method. This method can also be used to identify the channel order. For multi-block observations, we present the maximal ratio combining cross relation (MRCCR) method. It is an optimum approach in terms of instantaneous SNR and is based on the cross relation and maximal ratio combining techniques. The equal gain combining cross relation (EGCCR) is a suboptimum alternative to MRCCR with low computational complexity. MRCCR and EGCCR methods require only two frames for estimation and their performances are considerably better compared to alternative methods when the number of data blocks is small. In addition, they can perform as long as the data block length M >= 1. These three methods are especially well suited for trailing zero or burst transmission schemes.

Scale invariant representation of 2 5D data
AKAGUNDUZ, Erdem; ULUSOY PARNAS, İLKAY; BOZKURT, Nesli; Halıcı, Uğur (2007-06-13)
In this paper, a scale and orientation invariant feature representation for 2.5D objects is introduced, which may be used to classify, detect and recognize objects even under the cases of cluttering and/or occlusion. With this representation a 2.5D object is defined by an attributed graph structure, in which the nodes are the pit and peak regions on the surface. The attributes of the graph are the scales, positions and the normals of these pits and peaks. In order to detect these regions a "peakness" (or pi...
Time-domain mapping of electromagnetic ray movement inside anisotropic spherical resonator
Biber, A; Golick, A; Tomak, Mehmet (2002-09-01)
This paper presents the analytical proof of "Time-Domain Mapping Method" for the spherical resonator made up of uniaxial crystal. In this way, the main types of caustics inside the spherical resonator made up of uniaxial crystal, which were investigated numerically before, are confirmed analytically. It is engraved that the problem of the ray flow inside the spherical resonator can be reduced to the problem of the ray flow inside metal cavity shaped as spheroid.
Rescoring detections based on contextual scores in object detection
Zorlu, Ersan Vural; Akbaş, Emre; Department of Computer Engineering (2019)
To detect objects in an image, current state-of-the-art object detectors firstly definecandidate object locations, and then classify each of them into one of the predefinedcategories or as background. They do so by using the visual features extracted locallyfrom the candidate locations; omitting the rich contextual information embedded inthe whole image. Contextual information can be utilized to complement the informa-tion extracted locally and thereby to improve object detection accuracy. Researchershave p...
Electromagnetic target recognition with the fused MUSIC spectrum matrix method: Applications and performance analysis for incomplete frequency data
Secmen, Mustafa; Ekmekci, Evren; Sayan, Gönül (2007-01-01)
The aim of this paper is to apply an electromagnetic target recognition method, which is based on the use of fused MUSIC spectrum matrices, to the case of incomplete frequency domain data. The aforementioned method was suggested recently and succesfully applied to both canonical and complicated targets in the presence of complete frequency domain data [1]. However, most of the real world applications involve the use of severely incomplete frequency data, especially missing low frequency information. In this...
Affine Equivalency and Nonlinearity Preserving Bijective Mappings over F-2
Sertkaya, Isa; Doğanaksoy, Ali; Uzunkol, Osmanbey; Kiraz, Mehmet Sabir (2014-09-28)
We first give a proof of an isomorphism between the group of affine equivalent maps and the automorphism group of Sylvester Hadamard matrices. Secondly, we prove the existence of new nonlinearity preserving bijective mappings without explicit construction. Continuing the study of the group of nonlinearity preserving bijective mappings acting on n-variable Boolean functions, we further give the exact number of those mappings for n <= 6. Moreover, we observe that it is more beneficial to study the automorphis...
