We consider the distributed channel access problem for a system consisting of multiple control subsystems that close their loop over a shared wireless network. We propose a distributed method for providing deterministic channel access…
Intrabody communication (IBC), is a promising technology that can be utilized for data transmission across the human body. In this study, a galvanic coupled (GC)-based IBC channel has been investigated for implantable configuration both…
There is a growing interest in the transition from 4-step random access to 2-step random access in machine-type communication (MTC), since 2-step random access is well-suited to short message delivery in various Internet of Things (IoT)…
Distributed computing models typically assume reliable communication between processors. While such assumptions often hold for engineered networks, e.g., due to underlying error correction protocols, their relevance to biological systems,…
This paper introduces an online speaker diarization system that can handle long-time audio with low latency. We enable Agglomerative Hierarchy Clustering (AHC) to work in an online fashion by introducing a label matching algorithm. This…
This work studies the uplink of a multi-tenant cloud radio access network (C-RAN) system with spectrum pooling. In the system, each operator has a cloud processor (CP) connected to a set of proprietary radio units (RUs) through…

Video courses have become a significant component of modern education. However, the increasing demand for live streaming video courses places considerable strain on the service capabilities of campus networks. The challenges associated with…
This paper proposes the MBURST, a novel multimodal solution for audio-visual speech enhancements that consider the most recent neurological discoveries regarding pyramidal cells of the prefrontal cortex and other brain regions. The…
Continued progress towards energy-neutral Internet of Things (IoT) nodes expose the wireless communication link as the dominant energy bottleneck. While low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) technologies achieve long-range communication with…
It is widely recognised that over-reliance on GNSS (e.g GPS) for time synchronisation represents an acute threat to modern society, and a diversity of alternatives are required to mitigate the threat of an outage. This paper proposes a GNSS…
In this paper, we present a new receiver design, which significantly improves performance in the Internet of Things networks such as LoRa, i.e., having a chirp spread spectrum modulation. The proposed receiver is able to demodulate multiple…
Attacks against industrial control systems (ICSs) often exploit the insufficiency of authentication mechanisms. Verifying whether the received messages are intact and issued by legitimate sources can prevent malicious data/command injection…
Wireless telephone speech is usually limited to the 300-3400 Hz band, which reduces its quality. There is thus a growing demand for wideband speech systems that transmit from 50 Hz to 8000 Hz. This paper presents an algorithm to generate…
Voice conversion aims to transform source speech into a different target voice. However, typical voice conversion systems do not account for rhythm, which is an important factor in the perception of speaker identity. To bridge this gap, we…
Multicast is a central challenge for emerging multi-hop wireless architectures such as wireless mesh networks, because of its substantial cost in terms of bandwidth. In this report, we study one specific case of multicast: broadcasting,…
Multi-channel multi-interface Wireless Mesh Networks permit to spread the load across orthogonal channels to improve network capacity. Although broadcast is vital for many layer-3 protocols, proposals for taking advantage of multiple…
Bluetooth is a short-range wireless technology that provides audio and data links between personal smartphones and playback devices, such as speakers, headsets and car entertainment systems. Since its introduction in 2001, security…
