This paper outlines a novel scheme for predictive channel access methodology to enhance medium access reliability and reduce probability of interference in case of using IEEE 802.15.4 compliant WSN nodes under co-existence of communications for FBW applications. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated using real-world IEEE 802.1lg traffic, and the results show that free channel access rates of WSN nodes can be significantly improved.

This paper describes the design, development and analysis of an autonomous Quadrotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) that is controlled using fly-by-wireless technology. A communication protocol between the UAV and a Ground Control Station (GCS) is established to continuously send information from the on-board sensors to the GCS. There, a controller computes the control signal in real-time and sends it back to the UAV to act upon the actuators. An Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) and a sonar are used as sensors to determine the attitude angles and the height of the UAV, respectively. A state-feedback controller is designed by pole placement. Considering the delays of the wireless network, a Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is used to determine if the stability of the system is affected by the delay. Some results are presented from initial flight experiments in which attitude angles and altitude are stabilized.

This paper conceptualizes an integrated clock-less and multipath-robust Impulse Radio-Ultra Wideband (IR-UWB) transceiver for communication and localization puiposes. The ranging scheme is based on the use of the same transceiver installed both in the anchor and in the mobile nodes, for a Two-Way-Ranging (TWR) Time-of-Flight (ToF) estimation. The transmitter and receiver are implemented in a 130 nm RFCMOS technology. This paper presents the block scheme of the transmitter and the receiver, as well as the ranging scheme, prior to the chip validation and test.

This paper proposes an oscillator design capable of achieving high data transmission rates of up to 1.5 Gbps with a modulation scheme of 256 QAM at E-band frequencies. A low phase noise oscillator and high quality factor resonator are implemented in this work. The proposed cavity resonator design is embedded in a low cost gold plated brass casing. Eigenmode simulations yield an unloaded quality factor in excess of 5800 at 20 GHz. The low phase noise oscillator comprises of commercially available and low cost components surface mounted on a low loss millimeter-wave substrate. The proposed 20 GHz oscillator makes use of a frequency doubler to drive a sub-harmonically pumped mixer aimed for E-band frequencies of 80 GHz. The expected phase noise of the oscillator is better than −103 dbc/Hz with 100 kHz offset while operating at 80 GHz.

During the past several years, work has been ongoing at corporate, goverment laboratory, and university research group to develop passive wireless surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors and sensor-tags. These efforts have led to SAW sensors that operate wirelessly in enviroments coosiderably more extreme than those in which silicon-based sensors can operate. Advances have also been made in sensor coding, allowing production of small sets of sensors that can be individually read. The use of SAW devices as wireless interfaces to external impedance varying and voltage producing sensors and devices has also been demonstrated. This article provides a brief overview of recent advances made in this technology by several companies.

In this modern society each one of us do have a mobile phone with us and some have more than one. This fast growth in cell phone usage symbolifies utilization of energy in a vast scale. This enhances the speed of depletion of energy resources. The advancements in technology have gifted us mobile phones that are capable of functioning for months without charging. This was considered as a great achievement at the time of launch, still engineers are working on mobiles that are capable of functioning with renewable energy. In our paper we have proposed an eco friendly technique that could be imparted in mobile phone, so that device would be charging around the clock. We have devised our project in such a way that it makes efficient usage of renewable resources from which power is being harvested.

Wireless communication is being considered to replace various wired connections in the aerospace industry as it promises a multitude of advantages such as low weight, robustness, ease of system maintenance, modularity, expandability, and low cost Despite popular belief, wireless links can be very secure and reliable too. Wireless applications in aerospace vary from in-flight-entertainment (IFE) that requires huge multiuser, multimedia grade bandwidth to wireless sensing, command, control, and prognostics health monitoring (PHM) applications that require high reliability but low bandwidth. In addition, non interference with aircraft electronics, anti-jamming property, high level of security and a dedicated reserved frequency band are among critical requirements needed for emerging wireless applications in aerospace. Therefore, existing commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) wireless solutions are not suitable for direct use in the aerospace industry, and specialized solutions need to be developed. The objective of this paper is to provide a review of existing wireless connectivity methods for various applications, their diverse requirements and shortcomings, and report ongoing research efforts.
