The dynamic decode-and-forward channel: SNR allocation. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Maagh, S., Sharp, J., & Binnie, D. (2013, November). The dynamic decode-and-forward channel: SNR allocation. Presented at 21st Telecommunications forum TELFOR 2013

In the half-duplex relay channel applying the decode-and-forward protocol the relay introduces energy over random time intervals into the channel as observed at the
destination. Consequently, during simulation the average signal power seen at the de... Read More about The dynamic decode-and-forward channel: SNR allocation..

CFAR Adaptive PN Code acquisition for DSSS Systems (2008)
Journal Article
Wei, B., Sharif, M., Binnie, D., & Almaini, A. E. A. (2008). CFAR Adaptive PN Code acquisition for DSSS Systems. The Mediterranean journal of electronics and communications, 4, 37-45

Constant false alarm rate (CFAR) techniques can be used in Pseudo-Noise (PN) code acquisition in Spread Spectrum (SS) communication systems, and all the CFAR techniques perform well in homogeneous background PN code acquisition. However, in non-homog... Read More about CFAR Adaptive PN Code acquisition for DSSS Systems.

Acquisition and Classification of heart rate variability using time-frequency representation. (2003)
Thesis
Jacobson, M. L. Acquisition and Classification of heart rate variability using time-frequency representation. (Thesis). Edinburgh Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/6885

It has been shown that the heati rate varies not only in relation to the cardiac demand
but is also affected by the presence of cardiac disease and diabetes. Furthermore, it has
been shown that heart rate variability may be used as an early indicat... Read More about Acquisition and Classification of heart rate variability using time-frequency representation..
