An investigation into the use of kriging for indoor Wi-Fi received signal strength estimation
(2014)
Kriging is proposed as a tool for Wi-Fi signal strength estimation for complex indoor
environments. This proposal is based on two studies suggesting that kriging might be
suitable for this application. Both of these ...
The development of a multimedia reader for distance learning
(North-West University, 2005)
The goal of this project was to produce a device which can provide distance learning students with a method of learning by means of enriched study material. This device must be able to display study material in the form ...
Exploiting the implicit error correcting ability of networks that use random network coding
(North-West University, 2009)
In this dissertation, we developed a method that uses the redundant information implicitly generated inside a random network coding network to apply error correction to the transmitted message. The obtained results show ...

An approach to authenticate magnetic stripe bank card transactions at point-of-sale terminals
(North-West University (South Africa) , Potchefstroom Campus, 2015)
Magnetic stripe card technology has been deployed for more than five decades worldwide and is extensively used in banking. Data embedded in them are often relied upon as a benchmark for user authentication. As such reliance ...
Morphological segmentation of isiXhosa using unsupervised machine learning
(North-West University (South Africa), 2021)
In this work the use of unsupervised machine learning in the morphological segmentation of Nguni languages, evaluated on isiXhosa, is advanced. The work researches, extends, implements and evaluates unsupervised machine ...
Modelling the impact of antenna installation error on network performance
(North-West University (South Africa), 2020)
This dissertation models the impact of antenna installation errors on network perfor-mance of a Long Term Evolution (LTE) site. To test the impact of antenna installation parameters (antenna height and mechanical tilt), ...
Automatic Modulation Classification through clustering in the I/Q plane
(North-West University (South Africa), 2020)
Automatic Modulation Classification (AMC) refers to a process where the modulation scheme of a signal of interest is determined. It is not a requirement of an AMC system to recover the original data contained in the signal. ...
Development of a system for tracking objects in a confined space
(North-West University, 2009)
The Pebble Bed Modular Reactor (PBMR) is one of the alternative generation options
that Eskom is currently investigating to replace their old coal-fired plants. The PBMR
plants are smaller than conventional plants and ...
