Information theoretic aspects in ponderomotive systems

Information-Theoretic Determination of Ponderomotive Forces

Abstract From the equilibrium condition δS = 0 applied to an isolated thermodynamic system of electrically charged particles and the fundamental equation of thermodynamics (dU = TdS − (f · dr)) subject to a new procedure, it is obtained the Lorentz’s force together with non-inertial terms of mechanical nature. Other well known ponderomotive forces, like the Stern-Gerlach’s force and a force ter...

Information Theoretic Aspects of Multiuser Multicarrier Systems

This thesis deals with multiuser multicarrier communications over unknown time and frequency selective fading channels. Since there is a growing demand for capacity, especially in mobile communications, wireless multiuser communications experiences increasing interest in recent year. The wireless channel in general is a time and frequency selective fading channel. In that case, orthogonal frequ...

Coding and Information-Theoretic Aspects of Multiple Antenna Communication Systems

Information-Theoretic Aspects in the Control

Information is an intuitive notion that has been quantified successfully both in physics and communication theory. In physics, information takes the form of entropy; information that one does not possess. From this connection follows a trade-off, most famously embodied in Maxwell's demon: a device able to gather information about the state of a thermodynamic system could use that information to...

Fading Channels: Information-Theoretic and Communication Aspects

In this paper we review the most peculiar and interesting information-theoretic and communications features of fading channels. We first describe the statistical models of fading channels which are frequently used in the analysis and design of communication systems. Next, we focus on the information theory of fading channels, by emphasizing capacity as the most important performance measure. Bo...
