Development of a Wearable Device to Detect Epilepsy
Title
Development of a Wearable Device to Detect Epilepsy.
Creator
Khandnor Bakappa, Pradeepkumar, Agarwal, Ankur, Florida Atlantic University, College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
Abstract/Description
This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a wearable device, developed by the author, to detect different types of epileptic seizures and monitor epileptic patients. The device uses GSR, Pulse, EMG, body temperature and 3-axis accelerometer sensors to detect epilepsy. The device first learns the signal patterns of the epileptic patient in ideal condition. The signal pattern generated during the epileptic seizure, which are distinct from other signal patterns, are detected and analyzed by the...
Show moreThis paper evaluates the effectiveness of a wearable device, developed by the author, to detect different types of epileptic seizures and monitor epileptic patients. The device uses GSR, Pulse, EMG, body temperature and 3-axis accelerometer sensors to detect epilepsy. The device first learns the signal patterns of the epileptic patient in ideal condition. The signal pattern generated during the epileptic seizure, which are distinct from other signal patterns, are detected and analyzed by the algorithms developed by the author. Based on an analysis, the device successfully detected different types of epileptic seizures. The author conducted an experiment on himself to determine the effectiveness of the device and the algorithms. Based on the simulation results, the algorithms are 100 percent accurate in detecting different types of epileptic seizures.

Combined spatial diversity and time equalization for broadband multiple channel underwater acoustic communications
Title
Combined spatial diversity and time equalization for broadband multiple channel underwater acoustic communications.
Creator
Skoro Kaskarovska, Violeta, Beaujean, Pierre-Philippe, Florida Atlantic University, College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Ocean and Mechanical Engineering
Abstract/Description
High data rate acoustic communications become feasible with the use of communication systems that operate at high frequency. The high frequency acoustic transmission in shallow water endures severe distortion as a result of the extensive intersymbol interference and Doppler shift, caused by the time variable multipath nature of the channel. In this research a Single Input Multiple Output (SIMO) acoustic communication system is developed to improve the reliability of the high data rate...
Show moreHigh data rate acoustic communications become feasible with the use of communication systems that operate at high frequency. The high frequency acoustic transmission in shallow water endures severe distortion as a result of the extensive intersymbol interference and Doppler shift, caused by the time variable multipath nature of the channel. In this research a Single Input Multiple Output (SIMO) acoustic communication system is developed to improve the reliability of the high data rate communications at short range in the shallow water acoustic channel. The proposed SIMO communication system operates at very high frequency and combines spatial diversity and decision feedback equalizer in a multilevel adaptive configuration. The first configuration performs selective combining on the equalized signals from multiple receivers and generates quality feedback parameter for the next level of combining.

Implementation of digital filters with LabVIEW
Title
Implementation of digital filters with LabVIEW.
Creator
Landrin, Thomas., Florida Atlantic University, Zilouchian, Ali, College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
Abstract/Description
In this thesis, realization and implementation of one-dimensional (1-D) and two-dimensional (2-D) recursive digital filters using LabVIEW are presented. A number of direct and state-space realizations for 1-D filters are implemented either as in general form or second-order modules. Implementation programs are provided and simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. In addition, several realizations for 2-D separable-in-denominator filters are proposed....

In addition, several realizations for 2-D separable-in-denominator filters are proposed. These realizations have the properties of highly parallel structure and improved throughput delay. The performance as well as the implementation of 2-D filters using LabVIEW is also presented.

Studies on Stochastic Multi-user Scheduling in Wireless Communication
Title
Studies on Stochastic Multi-user Scheduling in Wireless Communication.
Creator
Wang, Di, Morgera, Salvatore D., Wang, Xin, Florida Atlantic University, College of Engineering and Computer Science, Department of Computer and Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
Abstract/Description
We developed a cross layer design which combines retransmission diversity and multi-user diversity for wireless communication. To this end, a joint design of adaptive modulation and coding with retransmission-based automatic repeat request protocol is outlined. This design is applied to devise multi-user scheduling schemes, which can optimally capture the available multi-user and retransmission diversities. In addition, the proposed on-line scheduling algorithms can operate even when the...

To this end, a joint design of adaptive modulation and coding with retransmission-based automatic repeat request protocol is outlined. This design is applied to devise multi-user scheduling schemes, which can optimally capture the available multi-user and retransmission diversities. In addition, the proposed on-line scheduling algorithms can operate even when the underl ying fading channel distribution is unknown, while asymptotically converging to the offline benchmark with guarantees on prescribed fairness and rate requirements. Numerical results are provided to verify the merits of our novel schemes for multi-user transmissions over Nakagami block fading channels.
