In this paper we propose a new space diversity scheme for broadband PLC systems using orthogonal space-time block coding (OSTBC) transmission combined with single-carrier frequency-domain equalization (SC-FDE). To apply this diversity technique to PLC channels, we first propose a new technique for combining SC-FDE with OSTBCs applicable to all dispersive multipath channels impaired by impulsive...

Today, given the extensive use of convertors in industry, reducing the power consumed by these convertors is of great importance. This study presents a new method to reduce consumption power in Flash ADC in 65nm CMOS technology. The simulation results indicate a considerable decrease in power consumption, using the proposed method. The simulations used a frequency of 1 GHZ, resulting in decreas...

introduction two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2dge) is a powerful technique in proteomics for protein separation. in this technique, spot segmentation is an essential stage, which can be challenging due to problems such as overlapping spots, streaks, artifacts and noise. watershed transform is one of the common methods for image segmentation. nevertheless, in 2dge image segmentation, the no...

A novel active feedback frequency compensation scheme is presented in this work. Based on the proposed technique, an amplifier with two main poles in its frequency bandwidth can be easily compensated by introducing a pole-zero pair in a local feedback. The proposed method is mathematically analyzed and then based on the derived formulations, a design procedure is established. The capability of ...

This work presents a technique for the analysis of Facial Electromyogram signal activities to classify five different facial expressions for Computer-Muscle Interfacing applications. Facial Electromyogram (FEMG) is a technique for recording the asynchronous activation of neuronal inside the face muscles with non-invasive electrodes. FEMG pattern recognition is a difficult task for the researche...

background: we aimed to extract the histogram features for text analysis and, to classify the types of bio medical waste (bmw) for garbage disposal and management. methods: the given bmw was preprocessed by using the median filtering technique that efficiently reduced the noise in the image. after that, the histogram features of the filtered image were extracted with the help of proposed modifi...

A meshless numerical technique is proposed for solving the generalized variable coefficient Schrodinger equation and Schrodinger-Boussinesq system with electromagnetic fields. The employed meshless technique is based on a generalized smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) approach. The spatial direction has been discretized with the generalized SPH technique. Thus, we obtain a system of ordinary...
