    IEEE
    This paper considers the implementation of distributed video coding based on hierarchical wavelet transform. The low - frequency coefficients of the eighth and ninth decomposition levels are transmitted as key frames. Every second frame is skipped and interpolated in the decoder by key frames and additional (side) information containing wavelet coefficient prediction errors and considered as motion vectors. A comparison of the developed software complex and the DISCOVER codec was made based on the dependence of the signal-to-noise ratio on the bitrate. The concept of movement complexity is introduced and the gain from the application of the developed algorithm for generating side information using the BD-PSNR criterion is estimated for different video sequences.

    Ahmed A. Thabit

    IEEE
    Cognitive radio (CR) is the exciting emerging technology that has the ability to deal with the requirements of the frequency spectrum. This new technology illustrates new developments in communications systems, because CR allows usage of the frequency spectrum more efficiently. As an example of the challenges related to CR system is the detection of the founded authorized users (PU) over a large range of frequency band at a precise time called sensing time (Ts). To increase the detection reliability of the primary users at minimum sensing time, an adaptive CR system have been built in this work based on neural network to identify if signal or noise. The system consists of feature extraction and decision stages was designed with help of Numeral Virtual Generalizing RAM (NVG-RAM) weightless neural network (WNN). Obtained simulation results of the proposed system are tested at different noisy channels: as AWGN and fading channels (Rayleigh and Rician). The results shows that probability of detection (Pd)=100% at -38 dB. at very low sensing time equal to 0.4 msec. A novel technique is also presented to estimate SNR for CR by statistical features by calculation the moment and cumulants for different modulated noisy signals. This is an indirect method for SNR measurements based on statistical features.

    Mobile access innovation is experiencing a progressive change. Every mobile generation witnessed fast and huge execution upgrades. These are proportional with the requests of the massive data increasing over the last years. There is significant strain to characterize the vital necessities of 5G, create 5G principles and perform innovation preliminaries as fast as could really be expected. 5G needs a progressive jump forward regarding information rates, inactivity, huge availability, network unwavering quality and energy efficiency. These capacities are focused at acknowledging rapid network, IoT, increased augmented experience, the material web, etc. The prerequisites for 5G are need to be done by new range in the microwave groups and using enormous data transfer capacities accessible in mm-wave groups, expanding spatial levels of opportunity by means of huge radio wire clusters and 3D MIMO and new waveforms that give versatility and adaptability in order to fulfill fluctuating needs of 5G administrations. In this paper, we introduce a review for 5G exploration, normalization preliminaries, and organization challenges. Because of gigantic extent of 5G frameworks, it is important to give some bearing in an instructional exercise article, and in this outline, the center is generally client driven, as opposed to gadget driven. Notwithstanding studying the condition of play in the region, we distinguish driving innovations, assessing their qualities and shortcomings, and framework the critical difficulties ahead, with research proving grounds conveying promising execution.

    Ahmed A. Thabit

    IOP Publishing
    Abstract One of the most important stations in any communications system is the filtering station. Due to the noise power that effects on the signal, the system must include filtering process to eliminate this effect. In this paper, analog and digital filters are designed and implemented using Matlab tools to solve the problems occurred during receiving the signal that effects on the synchronization such as those for coherent receivers. The offsets of Phase and frequency are major problems in the identification of signals that results reduction in the performance; such as, whenever higher order modulations are used. Two systems are designed and simulated. The first one is analog system and the second one is digital system. 3rd order Butterworth filter is selected for system one and digital IIR filter is selected for system two. Filter order was selected according to diagnosis the level of noise power and the transmitted frequency to meet certain frequency domain design specifications. Obtained results showed excellent performance in the receiving and demodulating the received signal. Evaluation of the results is basically depend on comparison between the transmitted and received samples.

    In today’s healthcare environment, the Internet of Things technology provides suitability among physicians and patients, as it is valuable in numerous medicinal fields. Wireless body sensor network technologies are essential technologies in the growth of Internet of Things healthcare paradigm, where every patient is monitored utilising small-powered and lightweight sensor nodes. A dual-hop, inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation and an incremental inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation with energy harvesting in the Internet of Things health-based paradigm have been investigated and designed in this work. The three protocols have been named and abbreviated as follows: energy harvesting–based dual-hop cooperation, energy harvesting–based inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation and energy harvesting–based incremental inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation. Outage probabilities for the three designed protocols were investigated and inspected, and mathematical expressions of the outage probabilities were derived. The simulation and numerical results showed that the energy harvesting–based incremental inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation provided superior performance over the energy harvesting–based inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation and energy harvesting–based dual-hop cooperation by 1.38 times and 5.72 times, respectively; while energy harvesting–based inter–wireless body sensor network cooperation achieved better performance over energy harvesting–based dual-hop cooperation by 1.87 times.

    Ahmed A. Thabit and Hadi T. Ziboon

    ACM Press
    Day by day the frequency spectrum became unable to provide the service that user needs. The frequency spectrum became more crowded due to increasing the number of users. One of the solutions to minimize this problem is the cognitive radio (CR). This paper includes design and FPGA implementation of a new CR based on feature selection to increase the probability of detection (Pd) for different modulation systems. This design is based on statistical features that used to distinguish between signal and the noise. The system shows an excellent performance of a detection probability as compared with the traditional detection methods. Both AWGN and fading channels are tested in order to proof the performance of the proposed system. The obtained simulation results provide Pd equals to 100% at SNR is -18dB for 6000 sample. Also there are high similarity between the simulation and practical implementation. Xilinx Spartan-3A DSP 3400A is used to implement the proposed detection systems.

  • WBSN in IoT health-based application: Toward delay and energy consumption minimization
    Ahmed Alkhayyat, Ahmed A. Thabit, Fahad A. Al-Mayali, and Qammer H. Abbasi

    Hindawi Limited
    The wireless body sensor network (WBSN) technologies are one of the essential technologies of the Internet of things (IoT) growths of the healthcare paradigm, where every patient is monitored through a group of small-powered and lightweight sensor nodes. Thus, energy consumption is a major issue in WBSN. The major causes of energy wastage in WBSN are collisions and retransmission process. However, the major cause of the collision happened when two sensors are attempting to transmit data at exactly the same time and same frequency, and the major cause of the retransmission process happened when the collision takes place or data does not received properly due to channel fading. In this paper, we proposed a cognitive cooperative communication with two master nodes, namely, as two cognitive master nodes (TCMN), which can eliminate the collision and reduce the retransmission process. First, a complete study of a scheme is investigated in terms of network architecture. Second, a mathematical model of the link and outage probability of the proposed protocol are derived. Third, the end-to-end delay, throughput, and energy consumption are analyzed and investigated. The simulation and numerical results show that the TCMN can do system performance under general conditions with respect to direct transmission mode (DTM) and existing work.
