Abstract:

This thesis introduces different mechanisms for energy efficiency in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) along with maintaining high levels of Network Performance (N.P) with reduced complexity. Firstly, a Machine-to-Machine (M2M) WSN is arranged hierarchically in a fixed infrastructure to support a routing protocol for energy-efficient data transmission among terminal nodes and sink nodes via cluster heads (CHs). A Multi-Level Clustering Multiple Sinks (MLCMS) routing protocol with the IPv6 protocol over Low Wireless Personal Area Networks (6LoWPAN) is proposed to prolong network lifetime. The sim

Abstract:

The power consumption of smart camera in car black box varies significantly between light load and heavy load. The high efficiency voltage regulator is necessary in prolong the life of smart camera battery. Since the smart camera only recording the video when car is driving, the most time of the smart camera works in the sleep mode. Hence the light load efficiency is important in this application, however, conventional buck converter usually have high efficiency at heavy load but poor efficiency at light load. To increase the light load efficiency of buck converter, this research continues Yea

Abstract:

Nowadays energy efficiency of telecommunication networks is receiving more attention than in the past for natural reasons. The situation is critical especially for access networks that typically include many end-user devices that consume a lot of energy. This thesis proposes a novel sleep mode technique for TDM-PONs that turns off the ONUs (placed at the customer premises) when certain traffic conditions are verified. The objective is to achieve an improved energy efficiency without impacting too much the Quality of Service perceived by end-users. The whole operation is managed at the OLT (pl

Abstract:

It is widely accepted that low energy consumption is the most important requirement when designing components and systems for a wireless sensor network (WSN). The greatest energy consumer of each node within a WSN is the radio transceiver and as such, it is important that this component be used in an extremely energy e±cient manner. One method of reducing the amount of energy consumed by the radio transceiver is to turn it off and allow nodes to enter a sleep mode. The algorithms that directly control the radio transceiver are traditionally grouped into the Medium Access Control

An efficient design dedicated for iterative-multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) receiver systems is now imperative in our world since data demands are increasing tremendously in wireless networks.

This thesis proposes an attractive solution to both the wireless signal processing and the architectural implementation design sides of the problem.

Abstract:

The daily sleep-wake cycle usually consists of three distinct states: wakefulness, non-rapid-eye-movement (NREM) and rapid-eye-movement (REM). The process of switching between different states is complex, but a common assumption is that it is regulated primarily by two processes (the circadian and the homeostatic process) via reciprocal interactions of several downstream neuron groups. These interactions not only result in often rapid transitions from one state to another, but also allow for a certain degree of bi-stability that locks the organism in a given state for some while before it swi

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references.<br>Numerous challenges are faced in investigations aimed at developing a better understanding of the pathophysiology of obstructive sleep apnoea. The anatomy of the tongue and other upper airway tissues, and the ability to model their behaviour, is central to such investigations. In this thesis, details of the construction and development of a three-dimensional finite element model of soft tissues of the human upper airway, as well as a simplified fluid model of the airway, are provided. The anatomical data was obtained from the Visible Human Project, and i

Abstract:

Central motor command from the sympathetic networks of the brain and the spinal cord are crucial for maintaining normal cardiovascular function. Understanding the mechanisms that increase sympathetic tone and reflex function are important to prevent neurogenically-mediated hypertension. Chapter 4 investigates the contribution of a hypothalamic neurotransmitter, orexin-A, in causing sympathoexcitation following intermittent hypoxia. Spinal orexin receptor signalling does not contribute to the elevation in sympathetic drive that is observable following intermittent hypoxia but contributes to en

Abstract:

The pervasiveness and operational autonomy of mesh-based wireless sensor networks (WSNs) make them an ideal candidate in offering sustained monitoring functions at reasonable cost over a wide area. To extend the functional lifetime of battery-operated sensor nodes, stringent sleep scheduling strategies with communication duty cycles running at sub-1% range are expected to be adopted. Although ultra-low communication duty cycles can cast a detrimental impact on sensing coverage and network connectivity, its effects can be mitigated with adaptive sleep scheduling, node deployment redundanc
