This dissertation is primarily concerned with the communication required to achieve secret key (SK) capacity in a multiterminal source model. The multiterminal source model introduced by Csiszár and Narayan consists of a ...

Opportunistic use of unused spectrum could efficiently be carried out using the paradigm of Cognitive Radio (CR). A spectrum remains idle when the primary user (licensee) is not using it. The secondary nodes detect this ...

Error-control codes, which are being extensively used in communication systems, have found themselves very useful in data storage as well during the past decade. This thesis deals with two types of codes for data storage, ...

Network coding was introduced as a means to increase throughput in communication networks when compared to routing. Network coding can be used not only to communicate messages from some nodes in the network to other nodes ...

With the rapid increase in available compute power and memory, and bolstered by the advent of efficient formulations and algorithms, the role of 3D full-wave computational methods for accurate modelling of complex ...

Current day VLSI systems have started seeing increasing percentages of multiple energy domain components being integrated into the mainstream. Energy domains such as mechanical, optical, fluidic etc. have become all pervasive ...

There is an ever increasing demand for higher spectral usage in wireless communication, radar and imaging systems. Higher spectral efficiency can be achieved using components that are aware of system environment and adapt ...

Distributed systems are employed in many modern storage and computing architecture for greater reliability and cost-efficiency. There are several important considerations in the design and implementation of such distributed ...

ABSTRACT In the modern day , we are witnessing two complementary trends, exponential growth in data and shrinking of chip size. The Data is approaching to 44 zettabytes by 2020 and the chips are now available with 10nm ...

Solution of Maxwell's equations is required to model and analyse electromagnetic behaviour of circuits, components and systems. These equations being partial differ finial equations of vector field quantities with spatial ...
