Virtual Reality Platform to Study RF Propagation in Body Area Networks

December 2, 2012
Author(s)
Kamran Sayrafian, John G. Hagedorn, Wen-Bin Yang, Judith E. Terrill
Design of efficient wireless communication protocols for body area networks requires in-depth understanding of the propagation media i.e. the human body. As obtaining large amount of data for many scenarios and use-cases via physical experiment is either

Baseband Voltage and Power in Load-Modulated Digital Backscatter

November 15, 2012
Author(s)
Daniel G. Kuester, David R. Novotny, Jeffrey R. Guerrieri, Zoya Popovic
Passive digital backscatter signals in systems like radio frequency identification (RFID) are usually received along with strong interference from a leaked carrier. The simplest way to quantify the “useful” communication signal is to separate an amplitude

A 4:1 transmission-line impedance transformer for broadband superconducting circuits

October 1, 2012
Author(s)
Leonardo M. Ranzani, Lafe F. Spietz, Jose A. Aumentado, Zoya Popovic
We present a 4 : 1 superconducting transmission-line impedance transformer for cryogenic applications. The device transforms 25 {Ω} in the coplanar waveguide to 6.25 {Ω} in the microstrip and is designed to operate at 20 mK. Calibrated measurements in a

Radiation Pattern of an UWB Wearable Antenna: A Preliminary Study

September 24, 2012
Author(s)
Wen-Bin Yang, Kamran Sayrafian
Inhomogeneity of the propagation medium in body area networks could have a great impact on the sensor node's antenna characteristics. This in turn could affect the quality of the communication links unless the impact of the human body has been properly

Factory Equipment Network Testing Framework: Concept, Requirements, and Architecture

September 17, 2012
Author(s)
James D. Gilsinn, Kang B. Lee, John L. Michaloski, Frederick M. Proctor, Yuyin Song
This document describes the purpose, concept, requirements, and architecture for the Factory Equipment Network Testing (FENT) Framework and the software to test equipment on real-time factory networks. Other documents contain more detailed information

Wireless Technologies in Healthcare: Selected Papers from IEEE PIMRC 2011

August 10, 2012
Author(s)
Kamran Sayrafian, Kamya Yekeh Yazdandoost
The use of wireless technologies for medical device communication, health monitoring (at hospitals or homes) and mobile healthcare information delivery (i.e. m-Health) is one of the most rapidly growing areas in health-IT research today. The papers which
