A study of magnetic non-linearity and finite length effects in solid iron subjected to a travelling MMF wave
… distribution in solid iron due to a travelling mmf wave. In the first half of the thesis, a two-dimensional solution is developed which accounts for the effects of both magnetic non-linearity and eddy-current reaction; this solution is extended, in the second half, to a three-dimensional model. …

Theoretical and Experimental Study of Low-Finesse Extrinsic Fabry-Perot Interferometric Fiber Optic Sensors
… fiber(SMF) EFPI (SMF-EFPI) and multimode fiber (MMF) EFPI (MMF-EFPI) sensor systems. The cases for SMF-EFPI and MMF-EFPI sensors are separately considered. In the analysis of SMF-EFPI sensors, the light transmitted in the fiber is approximated by a Gaussian beam and the obtained spectral transfer …

Two-Dimensional Information Transmission
The multimode optical fiber (MMF) channel is studied both experimentally and theoretically. Based on experimental results, the MMF is identified as a slowly time-varying fading channel with two-dimensional spatial freedoms. The capacity of the MMF is determined to be proportional to the …

Efficient design of reconfigurable intelligent surface assisted multi-group multicast beamforming
… constraint which is also known as max-min fair (MMF) problem. By exploring the interaction of the BS and RIS beamforming in the QoS problem, we formulate two subproblems, a BS multicast QoS problem and a RIS max-min-fair multicast problem, to be solved alternatingly. Our alternating multicast …

Optimal structure and efficient algorithm for max-min fair multi-group multicast beamforming
In this thesis, we consider the max-min fair (MMF) multi-group multicast beamforming design to maximize the minimum signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) subject to transmit power limit. We obtain the optimal multicast beamforming solution structure for an arbitrary system configuration. …
