    Ieee 802.15.4a Based Ultra Wideband Systems for Coexistence With Primary Users
    (IEEE, 2015) Fındıklı, Çağlar; Erküçük, Serhat; Çelebi, Mehmet Ertuğrul; Findik, Çağlar
    Peaceful coexistence is a major implementation issue for both cognitive radios and ultra wideband (UWB) systems. Accordingly the UWB impulse radio (UWB-IR) based Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) standard IEEE 802.15.4a has suggested using linear combination of pulses to limit interference to coexisting primary systems. In this paper motivated by implementing the IEEE 802.15.4a based UWB-IR systems for peaceful coexistence we consider the implementation of linear combination of pulses as suggested by the standard. Accordingly we (I) design linearly combined pulses that conform to the standard requirements and (ii) study the UWB-IR system performance in the presence of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based wideband primary systems with various bandwidths and subcarriers. The study shows that the UWB-IR system performance can be significantly improved by selecting suitable pulses for transmission and employing appropriate filtering techniques at the receiver when the primary system is active. The results are important for the practical implementation of IEEE 802.15.4a based UWB systems coexisting with licensed systems.

    Evaluation of Noise Distributions for Additive and Multiplicative Smart Meter Data Obfuscation
    (IEEE-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2022) Khwaja, Ahmed S.; Erkucuk, Serhat; Anpalagan, Alagan; Venkatesh, Bala
    In this paper, we compare and analyze light-weight approaches for instantaneous smart meter (SM) data obfuscation from a group of consumers. In the literature, the common approach is to use additive Gaussian noise based SM data obfuscation. In order to investigate the effects of different approaches, we consider Gaussian, Rayleigh, generalized Gaussian and chi-square distributions to achieve either additive or multiplicative data obfuscation. For each type of obfuscation approach, we calculate the required parameters to achieve obfuscation such that 50% of the obfuscated data fall outside an interval equalling twice the mean of the instantaneous SM measurements. We also calculate the minimum number of SMs required to estimate the mean of the actual SM measurements, such that the estimate varies within only 0.5% of the actual mean with a 99.5% probability. Simulation results are used to verify the calculations, and it is shown that multiplicative Rayleigh and generalized Gaussian noise require the least number of SMs, which is 90% less than the traditional approach of additive Gaussian noise-based SM data obfuscation.

    Channel Estimation for TDS-OFDM Systems in Rapidly Time-Varying Mobile Channels
    (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018) Basaran,M.; Şenol,H.; Erküçük,S.; Çirpan,H.A.
    This paper explores the performance of time-domain synchronous orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (TDS-OFDM) systems operated under rapidly time-varying mobile channels. Since a rapidly time-varying channel contains more unknown channel coefficients than the number of observations, the mobile channel can conveniently be modeled with the discrete Legendre polynomial basis expansion model to reduce the number of unknowns. The linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) estimate can be exploited for channel estimation on inter-block-interference-free received signal samples owing to transmitting pseudo-noise (PN) sequences. In conventional TDS-OFDM systems, the channel estimation performance is limited due to estimating channel responses only from the beginning part of the channel. Therefore, a new system model named "partitioned TDS-OFDM system" is proposed to improve the system performance by inserting multiple PN sequences to the middle and end parts of the channel as well. In addition to providing the reconstruction error performance, Bayesian Cramer-Rao lower bound is derived analytically. Also, the LMMSE-based symbol detection is employed. To alleviate the negative effects of inter-carrier-interference (ICI) occuring in mobile channels, ICI cancellation is applied to enhance the detection performance. The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed TDS-OFDM system is superior to the conventional system and its corresponding performance is able to approach the achievable lower performance bound. © 2018 IEEE.

    The Effect Of Channel Resolution On Compressed Sensing Based Ultra-wideband Channel Estimation [kanal Çözünürlü?ünün Sıkıştırılmış Algılama Tabanlı Ultra Geni?ş Bantlı Kanal Kesti?ri?mi?ne Etki?si?]
    (2011) Başaran, Mehmet; Erküçük, Serhat; Cirpan, Hakan Ali
    Ultra short pulses are transmitted in Ultra-Wideband (UWB) communications. As a result of this pulses at the receiver can be resolved individually due to the sparse structure of the channel. Due to these properties the UWB channel can be estimated by using a compressed sensing based channel estimation method. The performance of channel estimation depends on the sparsity of the channel. In this work the effect of channel resolution which directly affects the sparsity is examined. It is shown that the channel becomes more sparse and the channel estimation performance is improved with increased channel resolution. Also the system performances of practically used selective-Rake receivers with estimated channels are found to be close to the perfect channel estimation case. © 2011 IEEE.

    Data-Aided Autoregressive Sparse Channel Tracking for Ofdm Systems
    (IEEE, 2016) Buyuksar, Ayse Betul; Şenol, Habib; Erküçük, Serhat; Cirpan, Hakan Ali
    In order to meet future communication system requirements channel estimation over fast fading and frequency selective channels is crucial. In this paper Space Alternated Generalized Expectation Maximization Maximum a Posteriori (SAGE-MAP) based channel estimation algorithm is proposed for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) systems for Autoregressive (AR) modeled time-varying sparse channels. Also an initialization algorithm has been developed from the widely used sparse approximation algorithm Orthogonal Matching Pursuit (OMP) since the performance of SAGE algorithm strictly depends on initialization. The results show that multipath delay positions can be tracked successfully for every time instant using the proposed SAGE-MAP based approach.

    Realistic Performance Considerations for Combinational Cooperative Detection Method
    (Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2016) Samo, Rameez Ahmed; Erküçük, Serhat
    Combinational cooperative detection (CCD) method is different from the conventional cooperative detection method in the sense that each user may reach a different decision for the activity of the primary user. in the CCD method the locations of the secondary users (SUs) were fixed and selected near the border points of the communication area. The detection performance for SUs at random locations was not considered earlier. The CCD method’s practical implementation was explained with observing different system parameter’s effects on the detection performance for those fixed locations. Carrying previous work done forward in this thesis some realistic performance considerations for the CCD method are assessed. in accordance with that firstly the effect of SUs random locations on the detection performance is considered and compared with the performance for fixed locations. Secondly the effect of distance variations between master and primary user is tested. Finally the effect of different propagation environments on the detection performance of CCD is examined. The results are important to assess the realistic performance of the CCD method.

    The Effect of Channel Models on Compressed Sensing Based Uwb Channel Estimation
    (IEEE, 2011) Başaran, Mehmet; Erküçük, Serhat; Çırpan, Hakan Ali
    Ultra-wideband (UWB) multipath channels are assumed to have a sparse structure as the received consecutive pulses arrive with a considerable time delay and can be resolved individually at the receiver. Due to this sparse structure there has been a significant amount of interest in applying the compressive sensing (CS) theory to UWB channel estimation. There are various implementations of the CS theory for the UWB channel estimation based on the assumption that the UWB channels are sparse. However the sparsity of a UWB channel mainly depends on the channel environment. Motivated by this in this study we investigate the effect of UWB channel environments on the CS based UWB channel estimation. Particularly we consider the standardized IEEE 802.15.4a UWB channel models and study the channel estimation performance from a practical implementation point of view. The study shows that while UWB channel models for residential environments (e. g. CM1 and CM2) exhibit a sparse structure yielding a reasonable channel estimation performance channel models for industrial environments (e. g. CM8) may not be treated as having a sparse structure due to multipaths arriving densely. The results of this study are important as it determines the suitability of different channel models to be used with the CS theory.

    Joint Wavelet-Based Spectrum Sensing and Fbmc Modulation for Cognitive Mmwave Small Cell Networks
    (Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2016) Hosseini, Haleh; Anpalagan, Alagan; Raahemifar, Kaamran; Erküçük, Serhat; Habib, Salman
    Millimetre-wave (mmWave) 5G communications is an emerging technology to enhance the capacity of existing systems by thousand-fold improvement. Heterogeneous networks employing densely distributed small cells can optimise the available coverage and throughput of 5G systems. Efficiently utilising the spectrum bands by small cells is one of the approaches that will considerably increase the available data rate and capacity of the heterogeneous networks. This challenging task can be achieved by spectrum sensing capability of cognitive radios and new modulation techniques for data transmission. In this study a wavelet-based filter bank is proposed for spectrum sensing and modulation in 5G heterogeneous networks. The proposed technique can mitigate the spectral leakage and interference by adapting the subcarriers according to cognitive information provided by wavelet packet based spectrum sensing (WPSS) and lowering sidelobes using wavelet-based filter bank multicarrier modulation. The performance improvement of WPSS compared with Fourier-based spectrum sensing is verified in terms of power spectral density comparison and probabilities of detection and false alarm. Meanwhile the bit error rate performance demonstrates the superiority of the proposed wavelet-based system compared with its Fourier-based counterpart over the 60 GHz mmWave channel.

    Performance of Ieee 802.15.4a Systems in the Presence of Narrowband Interference
    (IEEE, 2011) Fındıklı, Çağlar; Erküçük, Serhat; Çelebi, Mehmet Ertuğrul
    The regulatory agencies in Europe and Japan require the implementation of avoidance techniques in some bands to reduce interference to licensed systems. Accordingly ultra-wideband impulse radio (UWB-IR) based Wireless Personal Area Network (WPAN) standard IEEE 802.15.4a has suggested using linear combination of pulses to reduce interference to coexisting primary systems. In this paper we consider the implementation of linear combination of pulses for a peaceful coexistence and assess the UWB-IR system performance in the presence of an active narrowband system. For that we study the possible transmitter and receiver structures that can be adapted for the physical layer of the IEEE 802.15.4a standard. The study shows that while the bit-error rate (BER) performances of coherent and noncoherent receiving structures may be slightly degraded with the use of linear combination of pulses when there is no active primary system the performances can be significantly improved with appropriate filtering techniques at the receiver when the primary system is active.

    Busy Tone Based Coexistence Algorithm for Wran and Wlan Systems in Tv White Space
    (Inst Engineering Technology-IET, 2018) Karatalay, Onur; Erküçük, Serhat; Baykaş, Tunçer
    TV White Space (TVWS) refers to frequency band reserved only for licensed terrestrial TV broadcasting and is opened to unlicensed use under regulatory conditions. While regulations protect licensed systems from interference interference among unlicensed systems is left mainly to manufacturers. Consequently there is a need to develop new coexistence approaches between TVWS networks. Busy tone broadcasting is a coexistence method which can be used by TVWS networks to announce the selected frequency band is occupied. In this paper a busy tone based coexistence algorithm is proposed for IEEE 802.11af and IEEE 802.22 networks and analyzed by considering different client distributions experiencing log-normal shadowing where the exact interfering packet rate and successful packet transmission rate expressions are obtained and validated by simulations for different scenarios. The results show that with the proposed coexistence approach a WLAN can reliably detect the busy tone signal to change its frequency band and can reduce interference to WRAN. Even if there is no available frequency band for the WLAN the WRAN still maintains its enhanced successful packet transmission performance. The deployment of the proposed algorithm is important for successful coexistence between cognitive wireless networks where interference is not regulated such as in TVWS bands.
