Noises and Signal-to-Noise Ratio of Nanosize EIS and ISFET Biosensors

Biological shot-noise and quantum-limited signal-to-noise ratio in affinity-based biosensors

We study the statistical behavior of affinity-based biosensors. The detection uncertainty and noise in such devices originates primarily from probabilistic molecular-level bindings within the sensing regions, and the stochastic mass-transfer processes within the reaction chamber. In this paper, we model the dynamic behavior of these sensory systems by a Markov process, which enables us to estim...

Effect of signal to noise ratio on the speech perception ability of older adults

Background: Speech perception ability depends on auditory and extra-auditory elements. The signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is an extra-auditory element that has an effect on the ability to normally follow speech and maintain a conversation. Speech in noise perception difficulty is a common complaint of the elderly. In this study, the importance of SNR magnitude as an extra-auditory effect on speech...

Digital Transmission : Carrier - to - Noise Ratio , Signal - to - Noise Ratio , and Modulat ion Error Ratio

Signal-to-Noise Ratio Estimation

Of the many measures that characterize the performance of a communication receiver, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) is perhaps the most fundamental in that many of the other measures directly depend on its knowledge for their evaluation. In the design of receivers for autonomous operation, it is desirable that the estimation of SNR take place with as little known information as possible regarding o...

a comparison of teachers and supervisors, with respect to teacher efficacy and reflection

supervisors play an undeniable role in training teachers, before starting their professional experience by preparing them, at the initial years of their teaching by checking their work within the proper framework, and later on during their teaching by assessing their progress. but surprisingly, exploring their attributes, professional demands, and qualifications has remained a neglected theme i...
