In this paper, we propose smart step closed-loop power control (SSPC) algorithm and base station assignment based on minimizing the transmitter power (BSAMTP) technique in a direct sequence-code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) receiver in the presence of frequency-selective Rayleigh fading. This receiver consists of three stages. In the first stage, with conjugate gradient (CG) adaptive ...

In an access network based on a passive optical network architecture, coherent detection is attractive since it allows for high receiver sensitivity coupled with inherent frequency selectivity. Nevertheless, solutions employed in core networks are prohibitively complex and costly, requiring the optical complexity of the coherent receivers to be reduced to make them feasible for access networks....

Computer-assisted diagnosis (CADx) for the characterization of mammographic masses as benign or malignant has a high potential to help radiologists during the critical process of diagnostic decision making. We have developed a new set of features for the characterization of masses which is especially designed to describe the intensity transition from the center of a mass up to its surrounding t...

The influence of intrinsic absorption in a relaxing medium and the resulting three-dimensional diffraction correction of the magnitude of the acoustic pressure averaged over the surface of a receiver is investigated for a tone burst. A rigorous formula for the damped acoustic pressure average at the receiver was obtained for arbitrary pulsed waves in a mono-relaxing medium. Depending on the pul...

This correspondence propose a framework of reversible data hiding (RDH) in an encrypted IMAGE bit stream. unlike accessible RDH technique for encrypted spatial-domain images, the propose technique aims at encrypting a IMAGE bit stream into a appropriately prepared structure, and embed a secret message into the encrypted bit stream by slightly modifying the IMAGE stream. we have a tendency to id...

Communication systems with low-resolution analog-to-digital-converters (ADCs) can exploit channel state information at the transmitter and receiver. This paper presents codebook designs and performance analyses for limited feedback MIMO systems with finite-bit ADCs. A point-to-point single-user channel is firstly considered. When the received signal is sliced by 1-bit ADCs, the absolute phase a...

This paper considers discrete multitone (DMT) modulation for multiuser communications where different users are supported by the same system. These users may have differing quality of service (QoS) requirements, as quantified by their respective bit rate and symbol error rate specifications. Our goal is to minimize the transmitted power given the QoS specifications for the different users, subj...

This paper presents a custom bit error rate (BER) tester implementation in an Altera Stratix II GX signal integrity development kit. This BER tester deploys a parallel to serial pseudo random bit sequence (PRBS) generator, a bit and link status error detector and an error logging FIFO. The auto-correlation pattern enables receiver synchronization without specifying protocol at the physical laye...
