Conference Object Adaptive Limited Feedback Scheme for Stream Selection Based Interference Alignment in Heterogeneous Networks(IEEE, 2016) Beyazıt, Esra Aycan; Özbek, Berna; Le Ruyet,D.This paper presents a stream selection based interference alignment approach with imperfect channel state information for heterogeneous networks. The proposed algorithm performs the selection of a stream sequence among a predetermined set of sequences. Those selected sequences are the ones that mostly contribute to the sum rate when performing the exhaustive search. These stream sequences form a regular structure where the first stream is associated to a pico user. The effect of imperfect channel state information on the proposed algorithm is analyzed and a bit allocation scheme is proposed by deriving an upper bound on the rate loss due to quantization. © 2016 IEEE.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 14A Molecular Communication Perspective on Airborne Pathogen Transmission and Reception Via Droplets Generated by Coughing and Sneezing(IEEE, 2021) Güleç, Fatih; Atakan, BarışInfectious diseases spread via pathogens such as viruses and bacteria. Airborne pathogen transmission via droplets is an important mode for infectious diseases. In this paper, the spreading mechanism of infectious diseases by airborne pathogen transmission between two humans is modeled with a molecular communication perspective. An end-to-end system model which considers the pathogen-laden cough/sneeze droplets as the input and the infection state of the human as the output is proposed. This model uses the gravity, initial velocity and buoyancy for the propagation of droplets and a receiver model which considers the central part of the human face as the reception interface is proposed. Furthermore, the probability of infection for an uninfected human is derived by modeling the number of propagating droplets as a random process. The numerical results reveal that exposure time affects the probability of infection. In addition, the social distance for a horizontal cough should be at least 1.7 m and the safe coughing angle of a coughing human to infect less people should be less than -25 degrees.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2A Vacuum-Integrated Centrifugal Microfluidic Chip for Density-Based Separation of Microparticles(IEEE, 2021) Öksüz, Cemre; Tekin, Hüseyin CumhurHere we present a new vacuum-integrated centrifugal microfluidic chip for the density-based separation of microparticles. A sample was loaded in a fluidic channel using the gas permeability feature of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) membrane between fluidic and control channels. Vacutun was applied from control channel to drive a density media and then the sample containing microparticles in the dead-end fluidic channel. Afterwards, the chip was disconnected from the vacuum and it was centrifugated. If the sample contains microparticles denser than the density media, the microparticles are sedimented at the end of the microfluidic channel so that these particles can be separated from remaining the lower density particles. With this approach, we separated 1.09 g/mL microparticles with 82,6% efficiency and 99% purity from 1.02 g/mL microparticles. Separated particles in the microfluidic chip can also be inspected under a microscope for further analysis. This simple approach offers high efficient density-based separation of microparticles with close densities.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Interference Management for Multiuser Multiantenna Ofdma Underlaying Device-To Communications(IEEE, 2017) Özbek, Berna; Pischella, Mylene; Le Ruyet, DidierUnderlaying device-to-device (D2D) transmission in cellular wireless systems is one of the promising transmission techniques for fifth generation (5G) and beyond 5G applications. Nevertheless, the interference between the D2D pairs, the interference from cellular users to D2D receivers and the interference that affects the cellular communications should be mitigated to increase the overall system performance. In this paper, we propose interference management techniques for D2D underlaying communications in multiuser multiantenna orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) systems. Our goal is to increase the data rate of both the cellular users and D2D pairs by performing interference management in frequency, power and spatial dimensions. The performance evaluations illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm in terms of average data rate and average transmitted power for both cellular users and D2D pairs.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 3Space-Frequency Grouping Based Key Extraction for Mimo-Ofdm Systems(IEEE, 2017) Topal, Ozan Alp; Karabulut Kurt, Güneş; Özbek, BernaLatest developments in wireless communication networks push the limits of conventional security methods. Security can be improved with a secret key that is dynamically generated based on the surrounding physical environment. With this objective, physical layer security approaches can be implemented by means of simple signal processing methods. In this paper, we propose novel key extraction approaches based on spatial and frequency characteristics of the wireless environment. In a 2x2 MIMO-OFDM system, low key disagreement rates and key error rates are observed, proving the potential of physical layer key extraction techniques.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 2Message-Passing Algorithm for Sum-Rate Maximization in Multi-Antenna Underlay D2d Communications(IEEE, 2018) Özbek, Berna; Pischella, Mylene; Le Ruyet, DidierIn this paper, we propose a resource allocation of device-to-device (D2D) communications underlaying multiantenna cellular systems by employing message-passing algorithm. It is possible to construct the factor graph of the D2D pairs by considering the interference power at the base station and among the D2D pairs. The goal is to avoid interfering the cellular transmission while increasing the sum data rate of D2D pairs. We show that the proposed resource allocation based on message passing algorithm allow us to almost reach the performance of the exhaustive search and outperforms the random allocation. Since the associated factor graph is not fully connected, the complexity of the algorithm is significantly reduced compared to the exhaustive search. © 2018 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Selection of the Best Proper Dc-Squids in a Multi-Squid Configuration(IEEE, 2007) Avcı, İlbeyi; Akram, R.; Bozbey, Ali; Tepe, Mustafa; Abukay, DoğanWe have carried out experimental investigation of multi-DC-SQUID magnetometer configuration fabricated on YBa2Cu30 7-δ thin films onto 24 degree SrTiO3 bicrystal substrates by directly coupling the pick-up loop to DC-SQUIDs. The layout of the magnetometer pick-up loop was chosen as a square washer configuration by maximizing loop effective area and minimizing loop inductance. We have used De-Magnetron Sputtering technique for deposition of the films and chemical etching process for patterning the Josephson junctions having 4 μm widths. The use of multi-SQUID configuration is related to the selection of the best proper junctions for SQUID to improve the chip sensitivity with selectivity option of choosing the squid junctions rather than multichannel operation. Selection of the best junctions compared to each other depending on the junction critical currents and noise levels caused by the fabrication process and placements of the junctions on the grain boundary enable having an increased output signal of the DC-SQUID.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 1Self-Heating Effect in Intrinsic Tunneling Spectroscopy of Hgbr2 Intercalated Bi2.1sr1.4ca1.5cu 2o8+? Single Crystals(IEEE, 2007) Kurter, Cihan; Özyüzer, Lütfi; Zasadzinski, John F.; Hinks, David G.; Gray, Kenneth E.We report tunneling results in intrinsic Josephson junction (IJJ) stacks fabricated in the form of square micromesas on HgBr2 intercalated Bi2.1Sr1.4Ca1.5Cu2O 8+δ (Bi2212) single crystals using photolithography and Ar ion milling techniques. Self-heating is the most common problem encountered in interlayer tunneling and it is likely to reduce the reliability of IJJ data. Although intercalation reduces heating a hundredfold, it still needs to be minimized substantially in order to approach the authentic superconducting energy gap observed by tunneling using more conventional junctions. We report tunneling characteristics of two mesas with the same height but different sizes (5 × 5 μm2 and 10 × 10 μm2) to show that heating effects are strongly related to IJJ stack size. For the smaller mesa, we observed an energy gap close to that seen in single SIN (S: superconductor, I: insulator, N: normal metal) and SIS break junctions as well as the dip and hump structures at high bias. The subgap data of 5 × 5 μm2 mesa were successfully fit with a momentum averaged d-wave model using convenient parameters. Thus our data is consistent with the predominant pairing symmetry suggested by point contact tunneling, break junction, scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy and angle resolved photoemission measurements in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+δ.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Comparison of Intrinsic Josephson and Sis Tunneling Spectroscopy of Bi 2sr2cacu2o8+?(IEEE, 2005) Özyüzer, Lütfi; Kurter, Cihan; Zasadzinski, John F.; Gray, Kenneth E.; Hinks, David G.; Miyakawa, NobuakiTunneling spectroscopy measurements are reported on optimally-doped and overdoped Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu2O 8+δ single crystals. A novel point contact method is used to obtain superconductor-insulator-normal metal (SIN) and SIS break junctions as well as intrinsic Josephson junctions (IJJ) from nanoscale crystals. Three junction types are obtained on the same crystal to compare the quasiparticle peaks and higher bias dip/hump structures which have also been found in other surface probes such as scanning tunneling spectroscopy and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. However, our IJJ quasiparticle spectra consistently reveal very sharp conductance peaks and no higher bias dip structures. The IJJ conductance peak voltage divided by the number of junctions in the stack consistently leads to a significant underestimate of Δ when compared to the single junction values. The comparison of the three methods suggests that the markedly different characteristics of IJJ are a consequence of nonequilibrium effects and are not intrinsic quasiparticle features.
