Doctoral Thesis A reliable and secure communication design for underwater sensor networks concerning energy efficiency(Abdullah Gül Üniversitesi, Fen Bilimleri Enstitüsü, 2023) UYAN, Osman Gökhan; Güngör, Vehbi ÇağrıUnderwater Acoustic Sensor Networks (UASNs) recently attract scientists because of its wide range of applications and emerging technology. A design challenge in UASN's is the limited network lifetime and poor reliability caused by limited battery supply of sensors and harsh channel conditions in underwater environment. Moreover, sensors might transmit sensitive data that must be disguised against eavesdropping attacks. To maintain a reliability level, packet-duplication and multi-path routing method are suggested, which renders eavesdropping attacks easier. For data security, cryptographic encryption is the most acclaimed method. However, encryption needs extra computations, which consume extra energy and cause a decrease in the network lifetime. As a countermeasure along with encryption against silent listening, fragmenting data and transmitting in pieces over different paths has been proposed. To address these challenges, an optimization framework has been developed to analyze the effects of multi-path routing, packet duplication, encryption, and data fragmentation on network lifetime. However, the solution time of the proposed optimization model is quite high, and sometimes it cannot come up with feasible solutions. To this end, in this study, different regression and neural network methods have been proposed to predict the energy consumptions of underwater nodes as supplementary methods to optimization models. Performance evaluations show that the proposed methods yield remarkably accurate predictions and can be used for energy consumption prediction in UASNs.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 3Crown Shaped Edge Multiband Antenna Design for 5G and X-Band Applications(Springer, 2023-06-03) Hakanoglu, Baris Gurcan; Kilic, Veli Tayfun; Altindis, Fatih; Turkmen, MustafaNowadays we are experiencing the fifth-generation (5G) technology with new frequency bands to achieve high broadband speed, minimum latency and more developed end user devices. Due to the different frequency ranges for different applications at 5G bands the antennas should support multiband operation in a compact structure. This paper proposes a new multiband microstrip patch antenna design operating at mid band 5G frequencies and in the X band. The structure of the antenna includes simply loading the top radiating edge with rhombic shaped stubs and slots. This configuration yields the antenna to have resonances at multiple frequencies based on the fact that the stubs and slots affect capacitive and inductive impedances on the lower and higher operating frequencies of the antenna. The unique design enables the antenna to have reasonably high gains at four different bands of 6.76 dBi, 6.47 dBi, 7.76 dBi and 5.51 dBi at 3.34 GHz, 4.61 GHz, 6.01 and 8.02 GHz, respectively. Also, the simulated antenna has been manufactured and measured. The measurement results are in good agreement with the simulation results. The proposed design can be used with many other frequency bands and dielectric materials as well to achieve multiband operation.
