    Connectivity analysis of an AUV network with OFDM based communications
    (IEEE, 2017) Bereketli, A.; Tümçakır, M.; Yazgı, İ.; Yeni, B.; Köseoğlu, M.; Duman, Tolga M.
    Autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) networks play a crucial role in tactical, commercial, and scientific applications, where reliable and robust communication protocols are needed due to the challenging characteristics of the channel. With this motivation, connectivity of AUV networks in different regions with varying transducer characteristics are analyzed through simulations based on real-life orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based communication experiments over noisy and Doppler-distorted channels. Doppler compensation is performed according to the autocorrelation using the cyclic prefix. Using binary and quadrature phase shift keying (BPSK and QPSK) modulation schemes in conjunction with low density parity check (LDPC) coding, error rate levels are investigated through shallow water pond and at-sea experiments. It is shown that, the utilized transmission scheme is capable of correcting all bit errors among nearly one million bits transmitted up to a distance of 1 km, yielding a payload rate of 15.6 kbps with 4096 subcarriers and QPSK modulation. The simulations provide key parameters that must be taken into account in the design of scalable and connected AUV networks.

    A delay-tolerant asynchronous two-way-relay system over doubly-selective fading channels
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2015) Salim, A.; Duman, T. M.
    We consider design of asynchronous orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based diamond two-way-relay (DTWR) systems in a time-varying frequency-selective (doubly-selective) fading channel. In a DTWR system, two users exchange their messages with the help of two relays. Most of the existing works on asynchronous DTWR systems assume only small relative propagation delays between the received signals at each node that do not exceed the length of the cyclic-prefix (CP). However, in certain practical communication systems, significant differences in delays may take place, and hence existing solutions requiring excessively long CPs may be highly inefficient. In this paper, we propose a delay-independent CP insertion mechanism in which the CP length depends only on the number of subcarriers and the maximum delay spread of the corresponding channels. We also propose a symbol detection algorithm that is able to tolerate very long relative delays, that even exceed the length of the OFDM block itself, without a large increase in complexity. The proposed system is shown to significantly outperform other alternatives in the literature through a number of specific examples. © 2015 IEEE.

    Dikgen frekans bölmeli çoklu erişim sistemlerinde telsiz erişim terminallerinin işbirliği
    (IEEE, 2009-04) Tokel, Turgut Barış; Aktaş, Defne
    Gelecek nesil kablosuz iletişim sistemlerinde öngörülen veri hızlarına ulaşabilmek için bu sistemlerde frekans yeniden kullanım oranının 1 olmasına ihtiyaç¸ vardır, bu ise özellikle hücre sınırlarındaki kullanıcıların önemli ölçüde hücreler arası girişime maruz kalmalarına neden olur. Telsiz erişim terminalleri arasında işbirliği hücreler arası girişimin azaltılmasında önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu bildiride çok hücreli, çok girdili çok çıktılı, dikgen frekans bölmeli çoklu erişim sistemlerinde telsiz erişim terminallerinden kullanıcılara işbirlikli veri iletimi problemini ele alıyoruz. Telsiz erişim terminallerinin aralarında kısıtlı ileti paylaşımı ile çizelgeleme ve veri iletimi yaptıkları etkin bir işbirlikli algoritma öneriyoruz.
