Unidirectional High-Frequency-Link DC to Three-Phase AC Conversion: Topology, Modulation and Converter Design
In recent years, stringent restrictions on greenhouse gas emission due to the present global
warming scenario is driving governments and power utilities worldwide behind electricity generation
using renewable energy ...
One-Shot Coordination of First and Last Mode Service in Multi-Modal Transportation
In this thesis, we propose a coordination of the rst and last mode connectivity in a multi-
modal transportation system. In particular, we consider a one-shot problem wherein the
passengers must be transported to or ...
Transmit Antenna Selection in Underlay Spectrum Sharing: Role of Power Adaptation, Interference Constraint, and Channel State Information
Spectrum sharing is essential to support high wireless data rates and a large number of wireless connections by the future technologies in the limited spectrum that is available. In underlay spectrum sharing a secondary ...
Speech and noise analysis using sparse representation and acoustic-phonetics knowledge
This thesis addresses different aspects of machine listening using two different approaches, namely (1) A
supervised and adaptive sparse representation based approach for identifying the type of background
noise and the ...
Insights into Network Coding Using Tools From Linear Algebra and Matroid Theory
Traditionally, the transmission of information through a network was carried out using store-and-forward techniques. This entails managing information bits in a network analogous to commodity flow, without mixing or combining ...
Constant-rate Non-malleable Codes and their Applications
Non-malleable codes(NMC) introduced by Dziembowski, Pietrzak and Wichs in ITCS 2010,
provide powerful security guarantees where error-correcting codes can not provide any guarantee: a decoding of tampered codeword is ...
Modeling and Adaptive Scheduling Strategies for Distributed Graph Algorithms
Graph processing at scales of millions-billions of vertices and edges has become common to solve
real-world problems in domains like social networks, smart cities and genomics. Distributed
"Big Data" platforms for graph ...
Model Checking Temporal Properties of Presburger Counter Systems
Counter systems are a well-known and powerful modeling notation for specifying infnite state systems. In this thesis we target the problem of checking temporal properties of
counter systems. We address three predominant ...
Fault Location in Double Wye Shunt Capacitor Banks
Shunt capacitor banks (SCBs) are usually used for providing reactive power support to power
systems. Reactive power support leads to power factor correction, voltage regulation and
reduction of network losses. Outage of ...
FA RCU: Fault Aware Read-Copy-Update
Deferred freeing is the fundamental technique used in Read-Copy-Update (RCU) synchronization technique where reclamation of resources is deferred until the completion of all active RCU read-side critical sections. We observe ...
