Inter-agent relative localization is critical for many multi-robot systems operating in the absence of external positioning infrastructure or prior environmental knowledge. We propose a novel inter-agent relative 3D pose estimation system…
Prior research has demonstrated that global positioning system (GPS) spoofing attacks on phasor measurement units (PMUs) can cripple power system operation. This paper provides an experimental evidence of the feasibility of such an attack…
This paper presents a performance evaluation of Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) based on Impulse Radio Ultra Wideband (IR-UWB) over a new simulation platform developed for this purpose. The simulation platform is built on an existing network…
Cyber-epidemics, the widespread of fake news or propaganda through social media, can cause devastating economic and political consequences. A common countermeasure against cyber-epidemics is to disable a small subset of suspected social…
Indoor localization has become increasingly important due to its wide-ranging applications in indoor navigation, emergency services, the Internet of Things (IoT), and accessibility for individuals with special needs. Traditional…
An ultra-wide-band impulse-radio (UWB-IR) transmitter (TX) for low-energy biomedical microsystems is presented. High power efficiency is achieved by modulating an LC tank that always resonates in the steady state during transmission. A new…
Ultra-narrowband (UNB) communications has become a signature feature for many emerging low-power wide-area (LPWA) networks. Specifically, using extremely narrowband signals helps the network connect more Internet-of-things (IoT) devices…
To address the challenge of extending the transmission range of implantable TXs while also minimizing their size and power consumption, this paper introduces a transcutaneous, high data-rate, fully integrated IR-UWB transmitter that employs…
Radio Frequency (RF) fingerprinting is to identify a wireless device from its uniqueness of the analog circuitry or hardware imperfections. However, unlike the MAC address which can be modified, such hardware feature is inevitable for the…
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has allocated the 6 GHz band (5.925 - 7.125 GHz) for unlicensed, shared use in the US. Incumbents in the band are protected via Low Power Indoor (LPI) rules that do not require the use of an…
Air-gapped systems are isolated from the Internet due to the sensitive information they handle. This paper presents COVID-bit, a new COVert channel attack that leaks sensitive information over the air from highly isolated systems. The…
The increased need for unattended authentication in multiple scenarios has motivated a wide deployment of biometric systems in the last few years. This has in turn led to the disclosure of security concerns specifically related to biometric…
Secure Device Pairing (SDP) relies on an out-of-band channel to authenticate devices. This requires a common hardware interface, which limits the use of existing SDP systems. We propose to use short-range acoustic communication for the…
UWB has a very large bandwidth in a WPAN network, which is best used for HD-video applications. Meanwhile, MBWA is a WMAN option optimized for wireless-IP in a fast moving vehicle. In this paper, we propose a practical engineering scenario…
IoT location services accept client-reported GPS coordinates at face value, yet spoofing is trivial with consumer-grade tools. Existing spoofing detectors output a binary decision, forcing system designers to choose between high false-deny…
Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) has been extensively researched in past years particularly with regard to range-based or visual-based sensors. Instead of deploying dedicated devices that use visual features, it is more…
Deviations in respiratory rate often precede abnormalities in other vital signs. However, continuously monitoring respiratory rates outside clinical settings remains challenging due to the obtrusive nature and sensitivity to body motions in…
Environment mapping is an essential prerequisite for mobile robots to perform different tasks such as navigation and mission planning. With the availability of low-cost 2D LiDARs, there are increasing applications of such 2D LiDARs in…
Precise indoor positioning systems (IPSs) are key to perform a set of tasks more efficiently during aircraft production, operation and maintenance. For instance, IPSs can overcome the tedious task of configuring (wireless) sensor nodes in…
