Abstract:
Sizing of material flaw is addressed in the multipath scene, and a method is developed to detect an isolated sized flaw and estimate its height based on imaging theory of different path profiles. A signal model based on the multipath higher order reflections of the flaw is built to detect the sized flaw. Multipaths are predicted and identified on the basis of the direct reflection path, which is relatively easy to be identified using the conventional flaw detection techniques. Direct reflection path and combined path are applied to detect the flaw from the top, and multipath w is to detect its bottom of the flaw. Ultrasonic imaging is formed and synthesized by all the identified multipaths, which shows the size of the material flaw. Simulations and experimentations demonstrate that the flaw sizing can be calculated utilizing the time-of-arrivals of the multipath signals.

Abstract:
In this paper, a novel virtual antenna array and fractional Fourier transform (FRFT)-based 2-dimension super-resolution time-of-arrival (TOA) estimation algorithm for OFDM WLAN systems has been proposed. The proposed algorithm employs channel frequency responses (CFRs) at the equi-spaced positions on a line or quasi-line moving trajectory, i.e., the CFRs of a virtual antenna array, to extract multipaths’ TOA information. Meanwhile, a new chirp-like quadratic function is used to approximate the channel multipaths’ phase variation across the space dimension, which is more reasonable than the traditional linear function, especially for relatively big virtual antenna array sizes. By exploiting the property of chirp-like multipaths’ energy concentration in the FRFT domain, the FRFT can be first used to separate chirp-like multipath components, then the existing TOA estimation methods in frequency domain can be further employed on the separated multipath components to obtain the multipaths’ TOA estimates. Therefore, the proposed algorithm can make more use of the multipaths’ characteristics in the space dimension, thus it can efficiently enhance the multipath resolution and achieve better multipaths’ TOA estimation performance without requiring a real antenna array. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

Abstract:
High availability is vital for network operators to ensure reliable services. Network faults can disrupt functionality and require quick recovery. Multipath networking enhances availability through load balancing and optimal link utilization. However, equal-cost multipath (ECMP) routing has limitations in effectively using multipaths, decreasing network availability. This paper proposes a three-phase disjoint-path framework that improves availability by directing traffic flows through separate paths. The framework provides effective load balancing and meets various service requirements. It includes the Optimization phase for identifying optimal multipath solutions, the Path Separation phase for dividing the multipath into working and backup sets, and the Quality Assessment phase for evaluating the robustness of both sets using topological metrics and micro-based characteristics. The simulations demonstrate the proposed framework’s validation and effectiveness in enhancing network availability.

Abstract:
This study focused on spectral clustering (SC) and three-constraint affinity matrix spectral clustering (3CAM-SC) to determine the number of clusters and the membership of the clusters of the COST 2100 channel model (C2CM) multipath dataset simultaneously. Various multipath clustering approaches solve only the number of clusters without taking into consideration the membership of clusters. The problem of giving only the number of clusters is that there is no assurance that the membership of the multipath clusters is accurate even though the number of clusters is correct. SC and 3CAM-SC aimed to solve this problem by determining the membership of the clusters. The cluster and the cluster count were then computed through the cluster-wise Jaccard index of the membership of the multipaths to their clusters. The multipaths generated by C2CM were transformed using the directional cosine transform (DCT) and the whitening transform (WT). The transformed dataset was clustered using SC and 3CAM-SC. The clustering performance was validated using the Jaccard index by comparing the reference multipath dataset with the calculated multipath clusters. The results show that the effectiveness of SC is similar to the state-of-the-art clustering approaches. However, 3CAM-SC outperforms SC in all channel scenarios. SC can be used in indoor scenarios based on accuracy, while 3CAM-SC is applicable in indoor and semi-urban scenarios. Thus, the clustering approaches can be applied as alternative clustering techniques in the field of channel modeling.

Abstract:
Compared with the line-of-sight (LOS) condition, the multipath effect is more serious in the non-line-of-sight (NLOS) condition. Therefore, the LOS and NLOS identification is necessary for the multipath analysis of signal propagation. The commonly used method is the support vector machine (SVM) method with high computational complexity. To tackle this problem, this paper adopts the SVM classifier based on fewer selected features of the normalized power delay profile (PDP). Therein, the PDP can be obtained using the sliding correlation method. The results show that the SVM-based classifier can achieve high accuracy on LOS and NLOS identification. We then analyze the impact of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and transmitting-receiving (Tx-to-Rx) distance on distinguishable multipaths under LOS and NLOS conditions. According to statistical measurement results, a function of distinguishable multipath numbers is established. Finally, we investigate the multipath power and delay parameters of average delay spread and root mean square (RMS) delay spread based on multipath results. The outcomes of this paper provide a useful support for analyzing signal propagation characteristics.

Abstract:
Wireless multipath clustering is an important area in channel modeling, and an accurate channel model can lead to a reliable wireless environment. Finding the best technique in clustering wireless multipath is still challenging due to the radio channels’ time-variant characteristics. Several clustering techniques have been developed that offer an improved performance but only consider one or two parameters of the multipath components. This study improved the K-PowerMeans technique by incorporating weights or loads based on the principal component analysis and utilizing the Minkowski distance metric to replace the Euclidean distance. K-PowerMeans is one of the several methods in clustering wireless propagation multipaths and has been widely studied. This improved clustering technique was applied to the indoor datasets generated from the COST 2100 channel Model and considered the multipath components’ angular domains and their delay. The Jaccard index was used to determine the new method’s accuracy performance. The results showed a significant improvement in the clustering of the developed algorithm than the standard K-PowerMeans.

Abstract:
In this article, we study secure multipath routing with energy efficiency for a wireless sensor network in the presence of eavesdroppers. We consider two objectives: (1) the multipath routing scheme for maximising the energy efficiency with security constraints and (2) the multipath routing scheme for maximising the secrecy capacity. The binary erasure channel model is adopted to describe the wireless channel states among neighbouring nodes. Based on the binary erasure channel model, the problem of multipath routing degrades to a problem of bit allocation for each path. We formulate the problems and find that the problems are both quasi-convex. For the first one, it is a linear fractional optimisation problem. The optimal solution is obtained by the Charnes–Cooper transformation. For the second one, we propose an iterative algorithm to obtain the [Formula: see text]-optimal solution. The performance analysis shows that the probability of the secure bit allocation increases along with the number of multipaths and decreases along with the number of hops per path and eavesdroppers. Simulation results are presented to illustrate the proposed algorithms.

Abstract:
A method is described for the fabrication of multipath electrospray emitters using hydrophobic porous polymer membranes. Polysulphone (PSF) and polycarbonate (PC) membranes, which possess pores with well-defined sizes, are glued onto the exit aperture of fused-silica capillaries or microfluidic chips to create multipaths to assist electrospray at moderate nano flow rates (e.g., 50–500 nL/min). A capillary-based multipath emitter fabricated with either PSF or PC membranes was prepared with a fused-silica capillary with 75 µm inner diameter and 360 µm outer diameter. Relative effects on electrospray performance at different flow rates, electrospray voltages, and solvent compositions are probed. The sensitivity and stability of electrospray signals were enhanced through spraying from multiple pores on the membrane. An embossed polycarbonate microchip was also interfaced to the mass spectrometer using the meso porous membrane approach.Key words: nanoelectrospray, membrane, emitter, multipaths, microchip.

Abstract:
As the necessity of location information closely related to everyday life has increased, the use of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) has gradually increased in populated urban areas. Contrary to the high necessity and expectation of GNSS in urban areas, GNSS performance is easily degraded by multipath errors due to high-rise buildings and is very difficult to guarantee. Errors in the signals reflected by the buildings, i.e., multipath and non-line-of-sight (NLOS) errors, are the major cause of the poor accuracy in urban areas. Unlike other GNSS major error sources, the reflected signal error, which is a user-dependent error, is difficult to differentiate or model. This paper suggests training a multipath prediction model based on support vector regression to obtain a function of the elevation and azimuth angle of each satellite. To extract an unbiased multipath from the GNSS measurements, the clock error of high-elevation QZSS was estimated, and the clock offset with other constellations was also calculated. A nonlinear multipath map was generated, as a result of training with the extracted multipaths, by a Support Vector Machine, which appropriately reflected the geometry of the building near the user. The model was effective at improving the urban area positioning accuracy by 58.4% horizontally and 77.7% vertically, allowing us to achieve a 20 m accuracy level in a deep urban area, Teheran-ro, Seoul, Korea.

Abstract:
To date, no universal modelling technique is available to mitigate the effect of site-specific multipaths in high-precision global navigation satellite system (GNSS) data processing. Multipaths affect both carrier-phase and code/pseudorange measurements, and the errors can propagate and cause position biases. This paper presents the use of an Eccosorb AN-W-79 microwave-absorbing material mounted around a GNSS antenna that reflects less than −17 dB of normal incident energy above a frequency of 600 MHz. To verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the Eccosorb, we installed two close stations by continuously operating multi-GNSS (BeiDou, GLONASS, Galileo and GPS) in a challenging location. One station is equipped with the Eccosorb AN-W-79, covering a square area of 3.35 m2 around the antenna, and the second station operates without it. The standard deviation reductions from single point positioning estimates are significant for all the individual GNSS solutions for the station equipped with microwave-absorbing material. The reductions are as follows: for GPS, between 15% and 23%; for Galileo, between 22% and 45%; for GLONASS, 22%; and for BeiDou, 4%. Furthermore, we assess the influence of multipaths by analysing the linear combinations of code and carrier phase measurements for various GNSS frequencies. The Galileo code multipath shows a reduction of more than 60% for the station with microwave-absorbing material. For GLONASS, particularly for the GLOM3X and GLOM1P code multipath combinations, the reduction reaches 50%, depending on the observation code types. For BeiDou, the reduction is more than 30%, and for GPS, it reaches between 20% and 40%. The Eccosorb AN-W-79 microwave-absorbing material shows convincing results in reducing the code multipath noise level. Again, using microwave-absorbing material leads to an improvement between 15% and 60% in carrier phase cycle slips. The carrier-phase multipath contents on the post-fit residuals from the processed GNSS solutions show a relative RMS reduction of 13% for Galileo and 9% for GLONASS and GPS when using the microwave-absorbing material. This study also presents power spectral contents from residual signal-to-noise ratio time series using Morlet wavelet transformation. The power spectra from the antenna with the Eccosorb AN-W-79 have the smallest magnitude, demonstrating the capacity of microwave-absorbing materials to lessen the multipath influence while not eliminating it.

Abstract:
Increased host mobility, and multi-homing make IP address management very complex in applications. Due to host mobility, the IP address of a host may change dynamically, and also frequently. Multi-homing leads to multiple IP addresses for a single host. Name-based socket is a solution to address the complex IP address management. It relieves the applications from the overhead, and moves it to the operating system. It uses a constant name, instead of an IP address to establish a connection, thus allowing for the IP address changes during the course of the connection. The current implementation of name-based sockets is on Transmission Control Protocol (TCP). TCP restricts the connection to a single path, even when multiple capable paths are available. Multi-path communication provides higher reliability, and increase throughput. Today, multi-path connections are quite feasible, since many hosts are generally multi-homed. Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is designed to overcome the restrictions in TCP. It renders the ability to simultaneously use multiple paths between the peers. Thus, it offers higher reliability, and better throughput. One of the aims of this Master’s thesis is coalescing MPTCP and name-based socket to provide a mechanism which handles IP address management issues as well as provides high resilience, and throughput. Another important area of research is to discover ways of providing good user experience with IPv6 addresses. Given that IPv6 deployments are still in its infancy, there are high chances that IPv6 is broken. Hence, it is very important to protect the users from these IPv6 outages and thereby motivate the major websites and service providers to use IPv6. This will in turn help in the global deployment of IPv6. Happy eyeballs is a smart approach to determine the best suitable path from a dual-stack client to a dual-stack server. In order to save the users from IPv6 outages, this thesis work also focuses on implementing happy eyeballs on name-based sockets.

Spread-spectrum systems with large transmission bandwidth present significant challenges from the standpoint of achieving synchronization before communication commences. This research investigates a rapid acquisition procedure that exploits the multipath to aid the synchronization. In particular, we consider a class of serial search strategies and determine the optimal search procedure for the uncertainty space consisting of N[sub]s total cells and N[sub]Q correct cells. We derive closed-form expressions for both the minimum and maximum mean acquisition times (MATs) and the conditions for achieving these limits. We prove that the fixed-step serial search (FSSS), with the step size N[sub]Q, achieves the near-optimal MAT. We also prove that the conventional serial search, in which consecutive cells are tested sequentially, and the FSSS with the step size N[sub]s - 1 should be avoided as they result in the maximum MAT. Analytical tools used in the research include Markov chain diagrams, the transformation of feasible spaces, and convexity theory. Our results apply to all signal-to-noise ratio values, regardless of the detection-layer decision rule and the fading distribution. The impact of this research is significant for the design, implementation, and deployment of spread-spectrum systems.

Abstract:
Ad oggi, il Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) è il protocollo più popolare per trasmettere e consegnare informazioni su Internet in modo affidabile. Tuttavia, esso fa uso di una connessione a percorso singolo, non sfruttando il multihoming e i percorsi multipli che sono sempre più disponibili per i dispositivi endpoint, cioè dispositivi mobili e server in configurazioni ad alta resilienza. Il MultiPath TCP (MPTCP) è stato sviluppato per affrontare queste limitazioni. Esso, infatti, mira a fare uso della diversità dei percorsi, al fine di offrire una migliore connettività di rete complessiva, aumentando così la resilienza ai guasti, eseguendo il bilanciamento del carico tra i percorsi disponibili (quando più di uno è disponibile). Consente, inoltre il supporto multihoming, senza la necessità di modificare i dispositivi già esistenti attualmente sparsi sulla rete.

This paper presents the results of land-based SHF channel modeling experiments. Channel modeling data were collected at Edwards AFB, California at S-Band, X-Band and Ku-band. Frequency domain analysis techniques were used to evaluate candidate channel models. A graphical user interface (GUI) was developed to search for the optimum channel parameters. The model parameters corresponding to different frequencies were compared for multipath events captured at approximately the same locations. A general trend was observed where the magnitude of the first multipath reflection decreased as frequency increased and the delay remained relatively unchanged.

Routing can be abstracted to be a path nding problem in a graph that models the network. The problem can be modelled using an algebraic approach that describes the way routes are calculated and ranked. The shortest path problem is the most common form and consists in nding the path with the smallest cost. The inter-domain scenario introduces some new challenges to the routing problem: the routing is performed between independently con gured and managed networks; the ranking of the paths is not based on measurable metrics but on policies; and the forwarding is destination based hop-by-hop. In this thesis we departed from the Border gateway Protocol (BGP) identifying its main problems and elaborating on some ideal characteristics for a routing protocol suited for the inter-domain reality. The main areas and contributions of this work are the following: The current state of the art in algebraic modeling of routing problems is used to provide a list of possible alternative conditions for the correct operation of such protocols. For each condition the consequences in terms of optimality and network restrictions are presented. A routing architecture for the inter-domain scenario is presented. It is proven that it achieves a multipath routing solution in nite time without causing forwarding loops. We discuss its advantages and weaknesses. A tra c-engineering scheme is designed to take advantage of the proposed architecture. It works using only local information and cooperation of remote ASes to minimize congestion in the network with minimal signalling. Finally a general model of a routing protocol based on hierarchical policies is used to study how e cient is the protocol operation when the correctness conditions are met. This results in some conclusions on how the policies should be chosen and applied in order to achieve speci c goals.

Abstract:
Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is a new modification of TCP protocol which enables a client to transfer data over multiple paths simultaneously under a single TCP connection, for improved throughput and fault resilience. However, MPTCP is susceptible to some major drawbacks when applied in a wireless network. We found several cases where, despite improving individual MPTCP clients throughput, MPTCP reduces the capacity of the overall wireless network due to the mac level fairness and contention-based access schemes. Additionally, even if the bandwidth improves, employing Multipath TCP (MPTCP) in wireless networks can be energy inecient due to additional energy consumption by multiple interfaces. This creates a dilemma between bandwidth improvement and energy efficiency. This thesis research aims to solve these important issues for MPTCP in the wireless environment. We analyzed the root cause of these drawbacks and identified instances where they can arise. Two novel schemes denoted MPWiFi and kMPTCP, are developed to solve the bandwidth degradation and energy efficiency issues respectively, while maintaining the promised benefitts of MPTCP. The MPWiFi assigns dierent priorities to the subflows and aggressively suppresses some of them based on some design logic. Similarly, kMPTCP adds an additional multipath subflow only if the bandwidth requirement can't be fulllled by single path and the new subflow meets the data rate and signal strength condition. Moreover, kMPTCP keeps additional subflows as long as the signal strength remains in good range and this subflow remain mandatory to provide the necessary bandwidth to the application. These two schemes have been implemented along with Linux Kernel MPTCP implementation. Extensive real-world deployment and NS3 simulation show that the proposed schemes can eectively alleviate the adverse impacts of the MPTCP based multipath access in Wireless networks.

Abstract:
The evolution in networking coupled with an increasing demand to improve user experience has led to different proposals to extend the standard TCP. Multipath TCP (MPTCP) is one such extension that has the potential to overcome few inherent limitations in the standard TCP. While MPTCP's design and deployment progresses, most of the focus has been on its compatibility. The security aspect is confined to making sure that the MPTCP protocol itself offers the same security level as the standard TCP. The topic of this thesis is to investigate the unexpected security implications raised by using MPTCP in the traditional networking environment. The Internet of today has security middle-boxes that perform traffic analysis to detect intrusions and attacks. Such middle-boxes make use of different assumptions about the traffic, e.g., traffic from a single connection always arrives along the same path. This along with many other assumptions may not be true anymore with the advent of MPTCP as traffic can be fragmented and sent over multiple paths simultaneously. We investigate how practical it is to evade a security middle-box by fragmenting and sending traffic across multiple paths using MPTCP. Realistic attack traffic is used to evaluate such attacks against Snort IDS to show that these attacks are feasible. We then go on to propose possible solutions to detect such attacks and implement them in an MPTCP proxy. The proxy aims to extend the MPTCP performance advantages to servers that only support standard TCP, while ensuring that intrusions can be detected as before. Finally, we investigate the potential MPTCP scenario where security middle-boxes only have access to some of the traffic. We propose and implement an algorithm to perform intrusion detection in such situations and achieve a nearly 90% detection accuracy. Another contribution of this work is a tool, that converts IDS rules into equivalent attack traffic to automate the evaluation of a middle-box.
