We introduce a comprehensive and statistical framework in a model free setting for a complete treatment of localized data corruptions due to severe noise sources, e.g., an occluder in the case of a visual recording. Within this framework,…
This paper focuses on the non-coherent detection in ambient backscatter communication, which is highly appealing for systems where the trade-off between signaling overhead and the actual data transmission is very critical. Modeling the…
There are currently no requirements (technical or otherwise) that BGP paths must be contained within national boundaries. Indeed, some paths experience international detours, i.e., originate in one country, cross international boundaries…
Ambient backscatter communication (AmBC) leverages the existing ambient radio frequency (RF) environment to implement communication with battery-free devices. One critical challenge of AmBC systems is signal recovery because the transmitted…
Rural electrification demands the use of inexpensive technologies such as single wire earth return (SWER) networks. There is a steadily growing energy demand from remote consumers, and the capacity of existing lines may become inadequate…
Wireless sensor networks usually comprise a large number of sensors monitoring changes in variables. These changes in variables represent changes in physical quantities. The changes can occur for various reasons; these reasons are…
We develop a means to detect ongoing per-country anomalies in the daily usage metrics of the Tor anonymous communication network, and demonstrate the applicability of this technique to identifying likely periods of internet censorship and…
Low earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellation-enabled communication networks are expected to be an important part of many Internet of Things (IoT) deployments due to their unique advantage of providing seamless global coverage. In this…
We consider a next generation wireless network incorporating a base station a set of typically low-cost and faulty Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RISs). The base station needs to select the path including the RIS to provide the…
Radio sensing in the sub-10 GHz spectrum offers unique advantages over traditional vision-based systems, including the ability to see through occlusions and preserve user privacy. However, the limited availability of spectrum in this range…

An extensive body of research deals with estimating the correlation and the Hurst parameter of Internet traffic traces. The significance of these statistics is due to their fundamental impact on network performance. The coverage of Internet…
This paper investigates the issue of cooperative activity detection for grant-free random access in the sixth-generation (6G) cell-free wireless networks with sourced and unsourced paradigms. First, we propose a cooperative framework for…
Passive measurement has traditionally focused on inbound traffic to detect malicious activity, based on the assumption that threats originate externally. In this paper, we offer a complementary perspective by examining outbound traffic, and…
Static and dynamic binary analysis techniques are actively used to reverse engineer software's behavior and to detect its vulnerabilities, even when only the binary code is available for analysis. To avoid analysis errors due to misreading…
This paper investigates the bit error rate (BER) and outage probability performance of integrated sensing and communication (ISaC) in uplink non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) based Internet of Things (IoT) systems. Specifically, we…
Current remote patient monitoring (RPM) systems are fully reliant on the Internet. However, complete reliance on Internet connectivity is impractical in rural and remote environments where modern infrastructure is often lacking, power…
An increasing number of Internet of Things (IoT) devices are connecting to the Internet, yet many of these devices are fundamentally insecure, exposing the Internet to a variety of attacks. Botnets such as Mirai have used insecure consumer…
Knowledge of power grid's topology during cascading failure is an essential element of centralized blackout prevention control, given that multiple islands are typically formed, as a cascade progresses. Moreover, academic research on…
In ambient backscatter communication (AmBC) systems, passive tags connect to a reader by reflecting an ambient radio frequency (RF) signal. However, the reader may not know the channel states and RF source parameters. The traditional energy…
