Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) introduces a new feature called Proximity Services (ProSe), which enables device-to-device (D2D) communication between User Equipment (UE) and the capability to operate out-of-network. In order to establish a D2D
With the congestion and scarcity of available spectrum resources, spectrum sharing between long-term evolution (LTE) and the IEEE 802.11 (aka. WLAN) systems is an ongoing research topic. Considering the LTE license assisted access (LAA) with the listen
For IoT to be broadly adopted, it is important to apply the concept to many applications at scale in our everyday life. Using these advanced technologies, our communities and cities can be more intelligent, secure, and resilient. The Hardware and
Abstract Phasor measurement units (PMUs) provide real-time synchrophasor data and good situational awareness of power grid, and could be used to take corrective actions to maintain grid reliability. Thousands of PMUs deployed in the North American power

This paper proposes an improved method for reconstructing wideband sparse spectrum. We utilize a multicoset setup based on time delay. The simple multicoset setup is more suitable for practical implementation in comparison to more sophisticated sub-Nyquist
Long-Term Evolution (LTE) supporting Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is a feature introduced in 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) release 12. D2D communication is critical in public safety applications, which enables communication among first

we present a channel sounder that can operate without a tether and still maintain an absolute time reference between the source and receiver. Based on a sliding correlator, with synchronized rubidium clocks to generate phase references for the up- and down

A novel method is proposed for the calibration of channel mismatch in a time-interleaved real- time digital oscilloscope (RTDO). A simple simultaneous equation is derived from the Fourier transform of the time-interleaved signals requiring only a transfer

We verify a model for state-of-the-art 250 nm heterojunction bipolar transistors with large-signal measurements. We demonstrate the propagation of correlated measurement uncertainties through the model-extraction and verification process, and use them to
A complete characterization of multiple-device wireless interactions must include data relatable to the electromagnetic field radiated by each device under test (DUT). If these field sources are separable in time or frequency, they can be demultiplexed
We report on magneto-transport measurements on low-density, large-area monolayer epitaxial graphene devices grown on SiC. We observe temperature (T)-independent crossing points in the longitudinal resistivity (rho)sub(xx), which are signatures of the

In this paper, we provide an overview of the on-going implementation of a 3rd Generation Partnership Program (3GPP) Proximity Services (ProSe) module in ns-3 to enable the performance evaluation of device-to-device (D2D) discovery and communication in Long
We developed models for Type N coaxial vector network analyzer (VNA) calibration kits within the NIST Microwave Uncertainty Framework. First, we created physical models of commercially- available standards that support multiline thru-reflect-line (TRL) and

We verify a foundry model for state-of-the-art 250 nm heterojunction bipolar transistors with large-signal measurements. We demonstrate the propagation of correlated measurement uncertainties through the verification process, and use them to quantify the

Micron-scale spacing of interleaved electrodes and high-dielectric ceramics in multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) provide exceptionally high capacitances in small volumes. This has led to MLCCs being the preferred type of capacitor in a wide range of
The public safety community is in a period of great transition. Over the next 20 years, technology advancements will increase accessibility of data/video applications to public safety, and allow for the eventual migration of voice communications from

NIST has developed a multi-purpose test range for performing several types of antenna testing including spherical, cylindrical and planar near-field scanning as well as extrapolation measurements. This range uses a commercial, offthe- shelf, six-axis robot
Linear dispersion codes (LDC) can support arbitrary configurations of transmit and receive antennas in multiinput multi-output (MIMO) systems. In this paper, we investigate two transmit diversity applications of LDC for orthogonal frequency division
We demonstrate an approach for electric-field measurements of high power radiation sources with a room temperature Rydberg-atom gas. We present strong-field measurements of microwaves tuned near the two photon 65D5=2−66D5=2 Rydberg transition in rubidium
