Validation of an open source software defined radio test bed

This paper presents a low-cost measurement method for MIMO antenna performance assessment based on the open-source OpenAirInterface initiative. MISO 8×1 measurements are presented to experimentally prove the reproductibility of the test method, using …

MIMO antenna performance assessment based on open source software defined radio

This paper presents a low-cost measurement method for MIMO antenna performance assessment based on the open-source OpenAirInterface initiative. A first measurement is presented with a prototype with 8 antennas at 2.6 GHz integrated into a …

On the exploitation of the iterative multi-scaling scheme for the electromagnetic non-destructive evaluation with the Inexact-Newton method

This paper presents an integrated inverse scattering approach to electromagnetic non-destructive evaluation. The method exploits the features of the multi-scaling scheme and the Inexact-Newton techniques for suitably addressing the ill-posedness and …

Experimental channel characterization of a MIMO-UWB communication system

In this paper, an experimental evaluation of the performances of a MIMO-UWB system has been described. The results obtained show that only at short distances MIMO-UWB systems exploit a significant multiplexing gain. This is mainly due to the SNR of …

On the integration of smart antennas in Wireless Sensor Networks

This paper presents a preliminary assessment of the potentialities of the exploitation of smart antennas in WSNs. The more trivial benefits coming from such an integration are: (a) an efficient spatial management of the radiated energy and (b) an …
