MIMO-OFDM Transmissions Invoking Space-Time/Frequency Linear Dispersion Codes Subject to Doppler and Delay Spreads

MIMO-OFDM Transmissions Invoking Space-Time/Frequency Linear Dispersion Codes Subject to Doppler and Delay Spreads

Linear dispersion codes (LDC) can support arbitrary configurations of transmit and receive antennas in multiinput multi-output (MIMO) systems. In this paper, we investigate two transmit diversity applications of LDC for orthogonal frequency division

The Need for Realism when Simulating Network Congestion

The Need for Realism when Simulating Network Congestion

Many researchers use simulation to investigate network congestion, often finding congestion spread can be modeled as percolation, spreading slowly under increasing load until a critical point, then spreading quickly through the network. The researchers

Cyber-Physical Systems: A Framework for Dynamic Traffic Light Control at Road Intersections

Cyber-Physical Systems: A Framework for Dynamic Traffic Light Control at Road Intersections

Traffic control at road intersections is based on traffic lights. The control mechanism typically used for traffic lights operates based on a periodic schedule to change the light (red/yellow/green). In many cases, a different schedule is used in late

Optical Measurements of Strong Microwave Fields with Rydberg Atoms in a Vapor Cell

Optical Measurements of Strong Microwave Fields with Rydberg Atoms in a Vapor Cell

We demonstrate an approach for electric-field measurements of high power radiation sources with a room temperature Rydberg-atom gas. We present strong-field measurements of microwaves tuned near the two photon 65D5=2−66D5=2 Rydberg transition in rubidium

Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation: Methods for Format-Preserving Encryption

Recommendation for Block Cipher Modes of Operation: Methods for Format-Preserving Encryption

This Recommendation specifies two methods, called FF1 and FF3, for format-preserving encryption. Both of these methods are modes of operation for an underlying, approved symmetric-key block cipher algorithm.

Analysis of Virtual Networking Options for Securing Virtual Machines

Analysis of Virtual Networking Options for Securing Virtual Machines

Virtual Machines (VMs) constitute the primary category of resources to be protected in virtualized infrastructures. Out of the two types of protection for VMs -- Host-level and Network-level -- it is the approaches for the Network-level protection that are

Detecting GNSS Spoofing using a Network of Hardware Oscillators

Detecting GNSS Spoofing using a Network of Hardware Oscillators

In the face of growing concern about spoofing attacks on GNSS transmissions, we propose a scheme to cross validate GNSS based timing against intrinsic properties of local hardware oscillators. We demonstrate our approach as being able to detect certain

Secure Virtual Network Configuration for Virtual Machine (VM) Protection

Secure Virtual Network Configuration for Virtual Machine (VM) Protection

Virtual Machines (VMs) are key resources to be protected since they are the compute engines hosting mission-critical applications. Since VMs are end-nodes of a virtual network, the configuration of the virtual network forms an important element in the

Linear Time Vertex Partitioning on Massive Graphs

The problem of optimally removing a set of vertices from a graph to minimize the size of the largest resultant component is known to be NP-complete. Prior work has provided near optimal heuristics with a high time complexity that function on up to hundreds
