SDR-Based Experiments for LTE-LAA Based Coexistence Systems with Improved Design

December 4, 2017
Author(s)
Yao Ma, Ryan T. Jacobs, Daniel G. Kuester, Jason B. Coder, William F. Young
To enhance spectrum efficiency in next generation heterogeneous wireless systems, it is important to improve shared spectrum usage between unlicensed long-term evolution (LTE) systems, such as the license assisted access (LAA), and legacy systems, such as

A Layered and Aggregated Queuing Network Simulator for Detection of Abnormalities

December 3, 2017
Author(s)
Junfei Xie, Chenyan He, Yan Wan, Kevin L. Mills, Christopher E. Dabrowski
Driven by the needs to monitor, detect, and prevent catastrophic failures for complex information systems in real-time, we develop in this paper a discrete-time queuing network simulator. The dynamic model for the simulator abstracts network dynamics by

Modeling the Internet of Things (& People): A Foundational Approach

November 16, 2017
Author(s)
Spencer J. Breiner, Eswaran Subrahmanian, Ram D. Sriram
This talk provides an overview of recent NIST work in the Internet of Things (IoT) domain in the Information Technology Laboratory. We begin with some examples and illustrations of the range of IoT systems. In addition to the obvious cyber physical aspects

The power collection method for connection relations: Meixner polynomials

November 7, 2017
Author(s)
Howard Cohl, Michael Baeder, Roberto Costas-Santos, Wenqing Xu
We use and derive connection and connection-type relations for Meixner and Krawtchouk polynomials. These relations are used to derive generalizations of generating functions for these orthogonal polynomials. The coefficients of these generalized generating

Using realistic factors to simulate catastrophic congestion events in a network

November 1, 2017
Author(s)
Kevin L. Mills, Christopher E. Dabrowski
With the rapid growth of the Internet, there has been increased interest in the use of computer models to study the dynamics of communication networks in the research literature. An important example of this has been the study of dramatic, but relatively

Evaluating the Effects of Modeling Errors for Isolated Finite 3-D Targets

October 19, 2017
Author(s)
Mark Alexander Henn, Bryan M. Barnes, Hui Zhou
Optical 3-D nanostructure metrology utilizes a model-based metrology approach to determine critical dimensions (CDs) that are well below the inspection wavelength. Our project at the National Institute of Standards and Technology is evaluating how to

MRI Birdcage RF Coil Resonance with Uncertainty and Relative Error Convergence Rates

October 4, 2017
Author(s)
Jeffrey T. Fong, Nathanael A. Heckert, James J. Filliben, Pedro V. Marcal, Robert Rainsberger, Karl F. Stupic, Stephen E. Russek
In a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system, it is necessary to excite the nuclei of a patient into coherent precession for imaging. This requires a coupling between the nuclei and a source of radio frequency (RF) power using a transmitter. To receive a
