In a multi-rate DS-CDMA system with multiple modulation, modulation format is adjusted according to the data rate of each user while symbol duration is fixed for all users. In this paper, two types of multi-stage partial parallel interference cancellation (PIC) receivers are considered for multirate DS-CDMA system with multiple modulation: multi-stage PIC receiver with partial cancellation fact...

We assess the quantitative accuracy of the particle-in-cell (PIC) approximation used in recent ab initio predictions of the thermodynamic properties of hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) iron at the conditions of the Earth’s inner core. The assessment is made by comparing PIC predictions for a range of thermodynamic properties with the results of more exact calculations that avoid the PIC approximati...

Aims. The aim of our work is to analyze the light curves $\beta$ Pic recently observed by TESS in sectors 32, 33, and 34, searching for signatures exocomet transits. Methods. We process from MAST database, applying frequency analysis remove harmonic signals due star's pulsations use a simple 1-D model fit profiles found events. Results. recover events previously other authors 5 6 find five new ...

Complex cis-[PtI2(NH3)(pic)] (pic = 2-methylpyridine), an iodido analogue of picoplatin, released the N-donor pic ligand in solution and isomerized, which complicates its subsequent testing for cytotoxicity.

A PIC-MCC code for simulation of streamer propagation in air".

During 1996 and 1997, several chemical issues that arise in the early stages of preinitiation complex (PIC) formation were resolved. Kinetics experiments indicated that both TBP dimerization and DNA bending influence the rate of TBP-TATA box assembly. Affinity cleavage experiments indicated that TBP lacks the specificity to nucleate assembly of a properly oriented PIC. Finally, high-resolution ...

Particle-in-cell (PIC) simulation techniques have been wildly successful in the firstprinciples simulation of plasma dynamics. However, the fundamental algorithmic underpinnings of standard PIC algorithms have not changed in decades. Classical PIC employs an explicit approach (leap-frog) to advance the Vlasov-Poisson system using particles coupled to a grid. Explicit PIC is subject to both temp...

XY-pic is a package for typesetting graphs and diagrams using Knuth’s TEX typesetting system. XY-pic works with most of the many formats available; e.g., plain TEX, LTEX, and AMS-TEX. Several styles of input for various diagram types are supported; they all share a mnemonic notation based on the logical composition of visual components. This guide concentrates on how to typeset “matrix-like” di...

The Lexical Substitution task involves selecting and ranking lexical paraphrases for a target word in a given sentential context. We present PIC, a simple measure for estimating the appropriateness of substitutes in a given context. PIC outperforms another simple, comparable model proposed in recent work, especially when selecting substitutes from the entire vocabulary. Analysis shows that PIC ...
