Variable projection and unfolding in compressed sensing
Summary
Summary
The performance of linear programming techniques that are applied in the signal identification and reconstruction process in compressed sensing (CS) is governed by both the number of measurements taken and the number of nonzero coefficients in the discrete basis used to represent the signal. To enhance the capabilities of CS...
A new approach to achieving high-performance power amplifier linearization
Summary
Summary
Digital baseband predistortion (DBP) is not particularly well suited to linearizing wideband power amplifiers (PAs); this is due to the exorbitant price paid in computational complexity. One of the underlying reasons for the computational complexity of DBP is the inherent inefficiency of using a sufficiently deep memory and a high...
Nonlinear equalization for RF receivers
Summary
Summary
This paper describes the need for High Performance Computing (HPC) to facilitate the development and implementation of a nonlinear equalizer that is capable of mitigating and/or eliminating nonlinear distortion to extend the dynamic range of radar front-end receivers decades beyond the analog state-of-the-art. The search space for the optimal nonlinear...
Next-generation technologies to enable sensor networks
Summary
Summary
Examples are advances in ground moving target indicator (GMTI) processing, space-time adaptive processing (STAP), target discrimination, and electronic counter-countermeasures (ECCM). All these advances have improved the capabilities of radar sensors. Major improvements expected in the next several years will come from exploiting collaborative network-centric architectures to leverage synergies among individual...
Discrete optimization using decision-directed learning for distributed networked computing
Summary
Summary
Decision-directed learning (DDL) is an iterative discrete approach to finding a feasible solution for large-scale combinatorial optimization problems. DDL is capable of efficiently formulating a solution to network scheduling problems that involve load limiting device utilization, selecting parallel configurations for software applications and host hardware using a minimum set of...
