RESEARCH TOPICS

My primary research interest is design, development, integration, deployment, simulation, analysis and optimization of wireless/mobile/satellite networks. Additional research interests include but not limited to resource allocation and management in wireless/mobile/satellite networks, ad hoc networks, image processing, multiuser detection, UWB communications, neural networks, digital watermarking, distance education, and remote laboratories. I have research connections with international institutes (including George Washington University, University of Maryland, University of Oulu, United Arab Emirates University, Samacom, Atwasabi ) and agencies (DARPA, NRL, FP7, etc) for possible research projects.  The following is a short list of my research interests; by research area, team, title, and brief summary:

 

Satellite Networks: Team: F. Alagöz , B. Vojcic (GWU, USA), A. AlRustamani (Samacom, UAE), R. Pickholtz (GWU, USA) and D. Walters (Orbital Science Inc., USA), Title: "Integration of Direct Broadcast Satellites into the Digital Battlefield Using Low Earth Orbit Satellites". Summary: This work was performed as part of the Defense Advanced Research Project Agency (DARPA) Global Mobile Information Systems Program to the U.S. Army of Intelligence Center, AZ, USA. The project was a joint project with Orbital Science Corp., MD, USA and Aloha Networks, CA, USA. In this work, I primarily focused on designing, developing and integrating the Adaptive Resource Allocation and Management (ARAM) system within the use of a Digital Battlefield Broadcast System. I designed, developed, tested and optimized the ARAM software, and resolved the quality of service (QoS) problems within the network. I also processed the digital video packets for perceptual QoS purposes in the overall system test-bed.

 

MPEG Video Characteristics: Team: F. Alagöz, Title: "Investigation of the Scene-Length Characteristics of MPEG Video Bitstreams". Summary: In order to optimize the network resources, one should incorporate all the available information into the network design. However, incorporating irrelevant information may increase the design complexity and/or decrease the performance of the network. In this work, I am investigating the relevance of integrating the scene length characteristics of MPEG coded video bitstreams into a Direct Broadcast Satellite networks with Return Channel System.

 

Applications of Wireless Networks: Team: M. AbdelHafez (UAE University, UAE) and F. Alagöz. Title: "Wireless Networks in the United Arab Emirates University: Testbed Development". Summary: In this work we attempt to introduce the Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) in the United Arab Emirates University (UAEU) students’ life. A WLAN testbed has been implemented for technology evaluation and investigation of possible technical solutions that suit the UAEU needs. The UAEU is moving to modern E-learning environment that satisfy its goals of modern education in the age of information technology. The test-bed, which presents the wireless campus as one of the promising solutions, is based on the latest IEE802.11b high-speed WLAN standard. Among many different vendors, the vendor was selected for smooth migration to the new standard IEEE802.11a in future. This work is different than other similar works done by introducing students in the technical work. Students will be using such network and their experience and feedback is very important. A group of senior students were trained on the product for full implementation. The initial testing, site survey, and complete implementation were done by university students. After extensive use of the testbed, students had raised many questions concerning this service and its applications. Recommendations and future plans were presented for proper design concerning the deployment of such network.

 

Image Processing: Team: F. Alagöz , M. AbdelHafez (UAE University, UAE), Title: "A New Error Concealment Technique Using Digital Watermarking". Summary: In this work, we propose a new error concealment method for covering up the high packet losses of an original image after its transmission through an error prone-channel. In this method, we embed a number of thumbnail images of the original image into the same original image before the actual transmission. The motivation of this work stems from the fact that the corrupted regions in an image occur usually in the form of blocks or strips due to the block coding nature of the popular image/video codecs. Initial results show that the proposed error concealment technique is a simple yet promising one, especially for the erroneous channels causing a wider range of packet losses, at the expense of some degradation in the perceptual quality of the original image. This is a consequence of the fact that the LSB data hiding technique employed in the proposed algorithm does not support the perceptual quality. Both human visual system and imperceptible data hiding techniques maybe utilized to surmount the problems associated with perceptual analysis.

 

Multiuser Detection: Team: F. Alagöz, Title: "A New Suboptimum Detector Using Branch and Bound Algorithms for Bit-Synchronous CDMA Systems". Summary: In order to reduce the complexity of the optimum multiuser detection, I have proposed a Reduced Complexity Maximum Likelihood (RCML) algorithm that includes a set of novel certain boundary rules and characteristics. I have investigated the performance and complexity tradeoffs for the RCML algorithm by conducting a set of simulations; Maximum Likelihood (ML) detection as a reference for performance comparisons, and relaxation based Semidefinite Programming (SDPB) algorithm as a reference for complexity comparisons. I show that the RCML algorithm is a promising algorithm for its computational savings over relaxation based algorithms in lightly-to-moderately loaded CDMA systems, and for its optimality in highly loaded CDMA systems. I am currently working on devising a suboptimum detector based on the RCML algorithm.

 

Neural Networks: Team: F. Alagöz, M.A.Hafez, and N. Kyriakapoulos (GWU, USA) Title: "A New Multi SAW Sensor Based Neural Network Gas Detector". Summary: Initial phase of this work is done for Naval Research Laboratory, Washington DC, USA. In the current work, we propose a new multi-Surface Acoustic Wave gas sensor based on NEural neTworks (m-SAWNET) detector for use in chemical vapor identification, where m denotes the number of SAW sensors. We model the signal processing aspects of the m-SAWNET detector. Then, we present the performance results for both the m-SAWNET and single SAWNET detectors. We show that one can benefit by combining a few (4 or 5) SAW devices to profoundly improve the vapor recognition rate. However, combining many SAW devices may become redundant, especially at high noise environments. We are currently developing other m-SAW combination techniques for better performance results.

 

Ultra-wideband communication systems: Team: M. AbdelHafez (UAE University, UAE), F. Alagöz and Matti-Latva-Aho (University of Oulu, FINLAND) Title: "Effect of Pulse Selection on the Capacity of Multi-User UWB Systems". Summary: In this work, we investigate the channel capacity with respect to pulse waveform of M-ary pulse position modulation (PPM) ultra-wideband (UWB) communication systems over additive white Gaussian noise channel (AWGN). Based on Gaussian approximation for the multiple access interference, an expression of the signal-to-noise ratio is developed for the UWB using various forms of pulses. In addition to rectangular pulse, Gaussian, 1st and 2nd derivative Gaussian, Laplacian, Exponential, and Hermite pulse waveforms are studied. The effect of pulse selection on the UWB capacity is performed in AWGN multiuser channel. Analytical and simulation results show that the capacity of UWB system is highly influenced by the selected pulse shape.

 

Remote Laboratories: Team: F. Alagöz, R. Daniel (Atwasabi, USA), A. Koos (Verisign,USA), Title: “Design and Development of the Remote Protocols and Applications (REPAS) Laboratory”. Summary: We have designed and developed the Remote Protocols and Security (REPAS) Laboratory fills a critical gap in today’s university operated computer facilities. The REPAS Lab offers the proper and stimulating environment to allow students and researchers    to do their work with as much ease and confidence as online banking. We are currently investigating the wireless connection mechanism of the Remote Protocols and Security (REPAS) Laboratory for provisioning a reliable e-learning environment. In order to support  wireless access to the Lab two tests have been performed so far. The first test allows wireless access away from the university by a mobile user (car with an antenna). We were able to maintain audio and visual connection while we drove around the Lab. The second test is based on the Ray Trace Model by which we investigate the power performance of transmitter- receiver couple. We study the effect of refractivity index in the atmosphere and terrain profile that may    substantially affect the propagation of the microwaves i.e., wireless access mechanism over the surface of the earth.

 

Mil-Chat: Team: F. Alagöz, O. TAŞ, C. Ersoy, E. Anarım, T. Tuğcu  (BU),  M. Abdel-Hafez (UAE University, UAE) and  R. Daniel (Atwasabi, USATitle: Design and development of a new hash based instant messenger (Mil-Chat) Summary: Recently, within the context of e-government many organizations have been utilizing new Internet technologies. However, speed and security are the two major dilemmas of instant messenger systems.    Although the former problem may be cured with a better networking infrastructure, the latter needs unique resolution strategy. It now is possible to develop a user-friendly secure-chat system by utilizing latest developments in encryption area. Many focus groups as well as military units are involved in research for developing a secure-chat system. In order to enhance the secure-chat systems, these researches include but not limited to block encryption algorithms, key distribution protocols, reliable management mechanisms, reliable transmission protocols, etc. In this project, we will design and develop a new secure-chat system for nodes operating with hierarchy.  In the proposed Mil-Chat system, we will follow AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) block encryption standard. With the help of hash functions, every user in the system will be given a unique and ordered key. Following the tree structure, a user will distribute the keys to users with one-level lower order. Due to hash functionality, a user can achieve encryption keys of the users at all lower-levels, while cannot achieve the key of any higher-level users. Another key characteristic of the system is initial key distribution and use of Secure Chat Server (SCS) for particular services. We will utilize a modified Secure & Simple (SAS) protocol for the initial key distribution. In order to test security and reliability of the Mil-Chat system against intentional/unintentional attacks from inside/outside a testbed will be designed and implemented.  Various Mil-Chat versions including appropriate interfaces will be ready to go.  Performance measures and analysis will be investigated. Additionally, the testbed will be used to study and support ongoing researches on secure-chat and security in the next generation satellite networks.

 

Cognitive Radio Networks: Team: F. Alagöz, T.Tugcu, D. Gözüpek, S. Bayhan, D. Çavdar Title:  SINCERE:

     Scheduling in INfrastructure based CognitivE Radio nEtworks

Summary:Inefficient spectrum utilization has fostered the research studies that focus on new communication paradigms referred to as dynamic spectrum access (DSA). Cognitive radio concept, on the other hand, is the technology that can actualize the DSA concept. The idea of enhancing the spectrum utilization by opportunistically using the spatio-temporally unoccupied portions of the spectrum constitutes the very “raison d‟ętre‟ of cognitive radio.The scheduling algorithms that will be developed in this project can be compartmentalized into two groups. The schedulers in the first group focus on the data transmission of the Secondary Users, whereas the ones in the second group concentrate on the transmission of sensing information. The common features of the schedulers in the first group is that all of them ensure that the Primary Users in the service area of the CBS are not disturbed, no collisions occur among the SUs, and reliable communication with the CBS is maintained.
