In order to detect targets upon sea surface or near it, marine radars should be capable of distinguishing signals of target reflections from the sea clutter. Our proposed method in this paper relates to detection of dissimilar marine targets in an inhomogeneous environment with clutter and non-stationary noises, and is based on adaptive thresholding determination methods. The variance and t...

In low-intermediate-frequency (low-IF) receivers, I/Q imbalance (IQI) causes interference on the desired signal from the blocker signal transmitted over the image frequencies. Conventional approaches for data-aided IQI estimation in zeroIF receivers are not applicable to low-IF receivers. In zero-IF receivers, IQI induces self-interference where the pilots of the image interference are complete...

An interference excision algorithm in direct-sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) communication systems is introduced. The proposed excision algorithm is developed for linear frequency modulated (LFM) signals that have broadband frequency characteristics. It is based on the time-frequency analysis of received signals employing short-time Fourier transformation (STFT). To analyze the interference, S...

This paper considers the interference awareness and reduction in mobile radio communication networks by use of mobile transceiving stations with two antennas and two delay lines. Each of delay lines is installed in a reception path of antenna that ensures constructive interference for useful signal and destructive interference for disturbance one. Such constructive suggestion leads to amplifica...

This paper studies signal detection in wireless networks where the uncertainty is due to the fading channel as well as strong co-channel interference of the same form as that of the desired signal. In particular, unlike for the desired signal, no pilot for the interference signal is available for measuring its fading channel state. Still, the interference is a non-Gaussian process and treating ...

The one-dimensional phase retrieval problem consists in the recovery of a complex-valued signal from its Fourier intensity. Due to the well-known ambiguousness of this problem, the determination of the original signal within the extensive solution set is challenging and can only be done under suitable a priori assumption or additional information about the unknown signal. Depending on the appli...

These days, many WiFi devices are trying to generate high throughput and have longer signal coverage which also bring unnecessary signal interference to neighboring wireless networks, and result in decreased network throughput. Signal interference could be minimized by reducing signal coverage of wireless devices. On the other hand, small signal coverage means low transmission power and low dat...

Uniform linear array (ULA)-based tapped-delay line (TDL) structure has good performance metrics when the signal sources are located at the middle angles. It offers poor performance when the signal sources are close to the array endfire. In this paper, a new approach is proposed which offers higher performance and desired beamforming on TDL structure when the wideband uncorrelated radio sources ...

Although dual-task interference is ubiquitous in a variety of task domains, stop-signal studies suggest that response inhibition is not subject to such interference. Nevertheless, no study has directly examined stop-signal performance in a dual-task setting. In two experiments, stop-signal performance was examined in a psychological refractory period task, in which subjects inhibited one respon...
