Performance Improvement of Multi-Stage Threshold Decoding with Difference Register

This paper presents an improved version of multistage threshold decoding with a difference register (MTD-DR) for selforthogonal convolutional codes (SOCCs). An approximate lower bound on the bit error rate (BER) with the maximum likelihood (ML) decoding is also given. MTD-DR is shown to achieve an approximate lower bound of ML decoding performance at the higher Eb/N0. The code with larger minim...

Multi-rate Relaying for Performance Improvement in IEEE 802.11 WLANs

It is well known that the presence of nodes using a low data transmit rate has a disproportionate impact on the performance of an IEEE 802.11 WLAN. ORP is an opportunistic relay protocol that allows nodes to increase their effective transmit rate by replacing a low data rate transmission with a two-hop sequence of shorter range, higher data rate transmissions, using an intermediate node as a re...

Multi-microphone noise cancellation for improvement of hearing aid performance

A scheme for binaural pre-processing of speech signals for input to a standard linear hearing aid has been investigated. The system is based on that of Toner & Campbell [l] who applied the Least Mean Squares (LMS) algorithm in sub-bands to speech signals from various acoustic environments and signal to noise ratios (SNR). The processing scheme attempts to take advantage of the multiple inputs t...

Stochastic Geometry and Htgr Modeling with Mcnp5

The MCNP5 Monte Carlo code has been frequently used to model HTGRs with explicit geometric representation of fuel compacts or pebbles, including the microscopic fuel kernels within them. The random locations of fuel kernels within each fuel compact or pebble, and of pebbles within the core, however, present difficulties. A new, on-the-fly, stochastic geometry model for MCNP5 has been developed ...
