Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThis letter presents a new statistical model for urban scene synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images by combining the Cauchy distribution, which is heavy tailed, with the Rician backscattering. The literature spans various well-known models most of which are derived under the assumption that the scene consists of multitudes of random reflectors. This idea specifically fails for urban scenes since they accommodate a heterogeneous collection of strong scatterers such as buildings, cars, and wall corners. Moreover, when it comes to analyzing their statistical behavior, due to these strong reflectors, urban scenes include a high number of high amplitude samples, which implies that urban scenes are mostly heavy-tailed. The proposed Cauchy-Rician model contributes to the literature by leveraging nonzero location (Rician) heavy-tailed (Cauchy) signal components. In the experimental analysis, the Cauchy-Rician model is investigated in comparison to state-of-the-art statistical models that include $\mathcal {G}_{0}$ , generalized gamma, and the lognormal distribution. The numerical analysis demonstrates the superior performance and flexibility of the proposed distribution for modeling urban scenes.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Analytical Improvement on the Electromagnetic Scattering From Deformed Spherical Conducting Objects(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2021) Kuştepeli, Alp; Kuştepeli, Alp; Çetin, Zebih; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this paper, electromagnetic scattering from con-ducting deformed spheres is considered analytically by employing the perturbation method and utilizing Debye potentials. To be able to analyze a wide variety of scattering problems, azimuthal variation is indispensable and therefore the geometries of the scatterers considered in this study do not have rotational symmetry, hence they are dependent on the θ and φ angles in spherical coordinates. Analyses are carried up to the second order explicitly to obtain more accurate results and thus scattered fields are obtained with second order corrections. The coefficients used to determine the scattered field are expressed in terms of Clebsch-Gordan coefficients, which enables one to obtain the results for new geometries only by simple algebraic manipulations. Numerical results and their comparisons are also presented for various deformation functions and parameters. IEEEArticle Citation - WoS: 28Citation - Scopus: 28Multi-Helper Noma for Cooperative Mobile Edge Computing(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2022) Yılmaz, Saadet Simay; Yılmaz, Saadet Simay; Özbek, Berna; Özbek, Berna; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyThe next-generation wireless networks are expected to support a number of computation-intensive and delay-sensitive applications such as virtual reality (VR), autonomous driving, telesurgery and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Since many devices are computation and power limited, mobile edge computing (MEC) has been deemed as a promising way to enhance computation service. In this paper, we propose a novel cooperative MEC that exploits the combination of non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) and multiple helpers. In the proposed system featuring a user, multiple helpers and a base station (BS), the user can simultaneously offload its computation-intensive tasks to the helpers using NOMA when there is no strong direct transmission link between the user and the BS. Then, the helpers can compute and offload these tasks through NOMA. Thus, in the proposed scheme, the computation and offloading modes at the helpers are determined with respect to the optimized task offloading decision factor. The simulation results show that the proposed NOMA-based cooperative MEC significantly increases the total offloading data under the latency constraints compared to the benchmark schemes featuring one helper with strong direct transmission link. IEEEConference Object A New Continuous Velocity Observer Formulation for a Class of Uncertain Nonlinear Mechanical Systems(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2015) Bayrak, Alper; Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Zergeroǧlu, Erkan; Deniz, Meryem; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this study, we present a smooth robust velocity observer for a class of uncertain nonlinear mechanical systems. The smoothness of the observers is guaranteed by utilizing hyperbolic tangent function as opposed to signum-type functions applied in most robust and sliding mode observers found in the literature. The proposed observer does not require a priori knowledge of an upper bound of the uncertain system dynamics and introduces a time-varying observer gain for uncertainty compensation. Practical stability of the observer error is ensured via Lyapunov-type stability analysis. Numerical simulation studies backed up by experimental results are presented to illustrate the performance of the proposed observer.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 3Hybrid Beamforming for Secure Multiuser Mmwave Mimo Communications(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2020) Erdoğan, Oğulcan; Özbek, Berna; Özbek, Berna; Busari, Sherif Adeshina; González, Jonathan; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologySecure communication is critical in wireless networks as the networks are prone to eavesdropping from unintended nodes. To address this challenge, physical layer security (PLS) is being employed to combat information leakage. In this paper, we present the performance evaluations based on the secrecy rate and the secrecy outage probability for multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications by employing hybrid beamforming (HBF) at the base station, legitimate users and eavesdropper. Using a 3-dimensional mmWave channel model and uniform planar antenna arrays (UPA), we employ artificial noise (AN) beamforming to jam the channels of eavesdropper and to enhance the secrecy rate. The transmitter uses the minimum mean square error (MMSE) precoder to mitigate multiuser interference for the secure MIMO mmWave systems. It is shown that the overall system performance highly depends on the power allocation factor between AN and the signal of legitimate users. © 2020 IEEE.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Backstepping Control of Electro-Hydraulic Arm(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2018) Bayrak, Alper; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Tatlıcıoğlu, Enver; Bayrak, Alper; Zergeroǧlu, Erkan; 03.05. Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn this study, positioning control of the electro hydraulic systems is considered. Backstepping control strategy is designed by defining an auxiliary error signal. The performance of the controller is investigated by conducting numerical simulations. From the simulation results, it is seen that the control objective achieved successfully. The performance is compared with PI controller via a comparison criteria and it is seen that the backstepping controller has better results in both error and controller performance aspects.
