This paper investigates a bi-static integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system for multi-target scenarios using impulse radio ultra-wideband (IR-UWB) signals, which offer fine temporal resolution, low power consumption, and strong…

Fast radio bursts (FRBs) are bright, mostly millisecond-duration transients of extragalactic origin whose emission mechanisms remain unknown. As FRB signals propagate through ionized media, they experience frequency-dependent delays…

We consider the problem of localizing two sensors using signals of opportunity from beacons with known positions. Beacons and sensors have asynchronous local clocks or oscillators with unknown clock skews and offsets. We model clock skews…

The analytic expression of CRLB and the maximum likelihood estimator for spatial correlation matrices in time-varying multipath fading channels for MIMO OFDM systems are reported in this paper. The analytical and numerical results reveal…

This paper considers wide-band spectrum sensing and optimization for cognitive radio (CR) networks with noise variance uncertainty. It is assumed that the considered wide-band contains one or more white sub-bands. Under this assumption, we…

Analytical phase demodulation algorithms in optical interferometry typically fail to reach the theoretical sensitivity limit set by the Cram\'er-Rao bound (CRB). We show that deep neural networks (DNNs) can perform efficient phase…

This paper presents a new algorithm for neural contextual bandits (CBs) that addresses the challenge of delayed reward feedback, where the reward for a chosen action is revealed after a random, unknown delay. This scenario is common in…

Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs) are short astrophysical transients of extragalactic origin. Their burst signal is dispersed by the free electrons in the large-scale-structure (LSS), leading to delayed arrival times at different frequencies.…

This paper introduces a predictive control barrier function (PCBF) framework for enforcing state constraints in discrete-time systems with unknown relative degree, which can be caused by input delays or unmodeled input dynamics. Existing…

The high time resolution of ultra-wideband (UWB) signals facilitates very precise position estimation in many scenarios, which makes a variety applications possible. This paper reviews the problem of position estimation in UWB systems,…

We study the throughput-vs-delay trade-off in an overlay multi-channel single-secondary-user cognitive radio system. Due to the limited sensing capabilities of the cognitive radio user, channels are sensed sequentially. Maximizing the…

In this paper, a new method is proposed to estimate the broad-line region sizes of UV lines $R^{\rm{uv}}_{\rm{BLR}}$. It is applied to 3C 273. First, we derive the time lags of radio emission relative to broad emission lines Ly$\alpha$ and…

Time-of-flight-based ranging among transceivers with different clocks requires protocols that accommodate varying rates of the clocks. Double-sided two-way ranging (DS-TWR) is widely adopted as a standard protocol due to its accuracy;…

This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of the deterministic and stochastic Cram\'er-Rao Bounds (CRB) for semi-blind channel estimation in massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. We derive and analyze mathematically…

This paper presents a distributed estimator for a deterministic parametric physical field sensed by a homogeneous sensor network and develops a new transformed expression for the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) on the variance of distributed…

The Bayesian Cram\'er-Rao bound (CRB) provides a lower bound on the mean square error of any Bayesian estimator under mild regularity conditions. It can be used to benchmark the performance of statistical estimators, and provides a…

The adoption of large-scale antenna arrays at high-frequency bands is widely envisioned in the beyond 5G wireless networks. This leads to the near-field regime where the wavefront is no longer planar but spherical, bringing new…

The Cram\'er-Rao bound (CRB), a well-known lower bound on the performance of any unbiased parameter estimator, has been used to study a wide variety of problems. However, to obtain the CRB, requires an analytical expression for the…

The performance bounds of near-field sensing are studied for circular arrays, focusing on the impact of bandwidth and array size. The closed-form Cramer-Rao bound (CRBs) for angle and distance estimation are derived, revealing the scaling…

Modern mobile communication receivers are often implemented with a direct-conversion architecture, which features a number of advantages over competing designs. A notable limitation of direct-conversion architectures, however, is their…
