Houben, Jort (author)A common problem in wireless communication is the existence of multipath propagation. This means that a transmitted signal is received multiple times because of reflections caused by the environment. We present two ways of modeling multipath propagation of an acoustic underwater signal. We discretise these models to solve them numerically....bachelor thesis 2023

Oudhuis, Waded (author)Computers having the ability to estimate intentions to speak can improve human-computer interaction. While plenty of research has been done on next-speaker prediction, they differ from intentions to speak since these rely only on the person themselves. Previous research was done on inferring intentions to speak using accelerometer data with some...bachelor thesis 2023

Theunisz, Jurriën (author)Single-cell RNA sequencing data clustering is a valuable technique for demonstrating cell-to-cell heterogeneity and revealing cell dynamics within and amongst groups. Large up-scaling of scRNA-seq datasets in recent years pose computational challenges for existing state-of-the-art clustering techniques. A possible solution to tackle these...bachelor thesis 2023

van Marken, Julie (author)This research aims to answer the question whether non-verbal vocal behavior can be used to estimate intention to speak. To answer this question data from a dutch social networking event is used to gather intentions to speak. The intentions to speak are split up in two categories: successful and unsuccessful intentions. The unsuccessful...bachelor thesis 2023

Cui, Ryan (author), van Herk, Lennert (author)Practicing fire scenarios in emergency response training is very hard due to various obstacles. An example is when holding a training, real fire will preferably not be used as it can become threatening. Real fire will only be used in a surrounding where safety is ensured, which is probably outdoors. An emergency responder hardly knows that it...bachelor thesis 2023

Fillerup, Chai (author)Quantum communication has been shown to be vastly superior to classical communication in many problems. However no general statements exist which tells us how much better quantum communication is to its classical counterpart. In this thesis it was studied the minimum amount of classical bits required to exactly simulate a quantum communication...bachelor thesis 2022

Durmuş, Merdan (author)Visible Light Communication (VLC) is becoming an important research area where Visible Light Sources such as LED, Halogen Lamps and even the sun can be used for Wireless Communication. LED-to-Camera Communication is a form of VLC, where the camera can notice intermittent stimuli changes above a certain threshold frequency (flicker fusion...bachelor thesis 2022

van Dam, Nadine (author), Jonker, Mees (author)Unmanned underwater vehicles benefit from communication with a high data rate on relatively small distances (under 100 m). Existing communication methods are not able to provide this or present other shortcomings. Therefore, this bachelor end project focuses on a new type of underwater communication, quasi-static electric field communication....bachelor thesis 2022

Makinwa, Soji (author), van der Laan, David (author)In this report the analysis of underwater communication using electric quasi-static fields is undertaken, in which key aspects that influence the performance the communication between a transmitting and receiving electrode is examined. A mathematical model was proposed for the transmission and reception of the quasistatic field and the expected...bachelor thesis 2022

van de Beek, Valentijn (author)Visible Light Communication is a method of wireless communication that avoids the oversaturated frequencies used by radio communication. Prior research typically uses the camera on smartphone for communication, but using a camera is energy-intensive and inefficient. Some alternatives are photodiodes and ambient light sensors, however the former...bachelor thesis 2022

Crha, Vojta (author)In the recent years, several papers have implemented methods which seamlessly integrate data streams into high frame rate monitors without affecting casual viewer experience. This paper proposes an improvement to existing systems which can in theory increase the data throughput of the data stream several times. Exploiting the same...bachelor thesis 2022

Lin, Giovanni (author)Augmented Reality has the potential to expand our interaction with our surrounding environment. A potential solution to improve this interactability is Visible Light Communication through blinking Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs). Data is encoded and then transmitted by blinking the LED, a smart-phone camera is then pointed at the LED to decode the...bachelor thesis 2022

Joshi, Ian (author)In a community energy project, batteries are the asset with the shortest lifespan and are therefore key contributors to cost. Understanding the influence of the battery state of health model on a control algorithm designed for redistribution of benefits in terms of financial gains in a community energy project can help elongate battery lifetime...bachelor thesis 2022

Sluijk, Dany (author)In this paper we will consider the Byzantine Reliable Broadcast problem on partially connected net- works. We introduce an routing algorithm for networks with a known topology. It will show that when this is combined with cryptographic signatures, we can use the routing algorithm to create an optimal amount of messages. We will introduce a few...bachelor thesis 2022

de Water, Joey (author)Energy communities are not yet fully self sufficient, mostly due to financial factors. Efforts are made to reduce these factors. Communities invest in community-owned assets, which provide more savings compared to individually-owned assets. Prosumers share their loads for better energy distribution, this can provide a significant impact. A good...bachelor thesis 2022

Dubravica, Luka (author)Distributed systems are networks of nodes depending on each other. However, each network can have multiple faulty nodes, which are either malfunctioning or malicious. Bracha's algorithm allows correct nodes inside the network to agree on certain information, while tolerating a certain amount of faulty nodes. Nodes exchange Send, Echo and Ready...bachelor thesis 2022

Hossain, Shaan (author)Although the demand for wireless communication continuous to grow, the number of frequencies available in traditional data transmission is limited. Visible Light Communication (VLC) is a promising alternative communication method proven to work on high-end devices. However, large-scale adoption requires VLC to also work on everyday machines. Yet...bachelor thesis 2022

Mărîi, Silviu (author)Discovering the topology in an unknown network is a fundamental problem for the distributed systems that faces several backlashes due to the proneness of such systems to Byzantine (i.e. arbitrary or malicious) failures. During the past decades, several protocols were developed to allow a network to be resilient up to a certain number of...bachelor thesis 2022

Kemmeren, Eric (author)Visible Light Communication (VLC) has seen drastic improvements in recent years, one approach uses active light sources like LEDs, switching them at hight speeds to send data. Another approach uses the fundamental characteristics of liquid crystals (birefringence and thickness) to transmit data to a single pixel receiver. These characteristics...bachelor thesis 2022

Custers, Geert (author), Loen, Stefan (author)This report is part of the WiECG project. The goal of the WiECG project is to create a prototype device that makes it possible to perform a 12-lead ECG on patients without wires from a patient to the monitor. The solution consists of a transmitter and receiver of which one is close or on the patients body and the other is connected to a monitor....bachelor thesis 2022
