Introduction: Over the last decade, exposure to non-ionizing electromagnetic waves due to base station antenna has increased. This in vivo study was planned for evaluating the effects of whole-body exposure to 950 MHz field of GSM mobile phone system on rat dentate gyrus long-term potentiation. Materials and Methods: 24 naive male Wistar rats (3 month old, 225|¡|25 g) were randomly divided in t...

Inter-cell cochannel interference (ICCI) is an inherent problem in all cellular systems due the necessity to reuse the same frequencies after a certain reuse distance. In GSM, the fact that the number of nearby cochannel interferers is relatively small leads to a high probability of a dominant interferer (DI). Hence, suppression of DI alone provides substantial capacity improvement for GSM. The...

An analytical and concise formula is derived for the fractional Fourier transform (FRT) of partially coherent beams that is based on the tensorial propagation formula of the cross-spectral density of partially coherent twisted anisotropic Gaussian-Schell-model (GSM) beams. The corresponding tensor ABCD law performing the FRT is obtained. The connections between the FRT formula and the generaliz...

This paper presents an outline on the need of equalization in case of GSM systems. The modulation scheme employed in GSM systems is GMSK, which is both power and spectrum efficient, but at the cost of increased intersymbol interference. The effect of inter-symbol interference is more severe in case of multipath fading channel. This obviates the need of near optimum equalization. In this paper f...

We introduce a novel mid-structure called the generalized swept mid-structure (GSM) of a closed polygonal shape, and a framework to compute it. The GSM contains both curve and surface elements and has consistent sheet-by-sheet topology, versus triangle-by-triangle topology produced by other mid-structure methods. To obtain this structure, a harmonic function, defined on the volume that is enclo...

Railway digital radio system, GSM-R, is a dedicated system for railway based on GSM system, which shoulders the demand of dedicated dispatching communication for railway. So it is extremely important to research the data transmission of GSM-R. In this paper, a data transmission method has been proposed, based on the actual measurement report of GSM-R and a prediction algorithm, in analyzing the...

Today, the primary constrain in wireless communication system is limited bandwidth and power. Wireless systems involved in transmission of speech envisage that efficient and effective methods be developed (bandwidth usage & power) to transmit and receive the same while maintaining quality-of-speech, especially at the receiving end. Speech coding is a technique, since the era of digitization (di...

BACKGROUND Ultrasonic gray-scale median (GSM) of the carotid wall reflects its composition and low-GSM carotid plaque is considered to be vulnerable. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of sitagliptin, a dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor, on the longitudinal change in GSM, an index of the tissue characteristics of the carotid wall, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). METHODS ...

AIMS/INTRODUCTION Measurements of plaque echogenicity, the gray-scale median (GSM), were shown to correlate inversely with risk factors for cerebro-cardiovascular disease (CVD). The eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)/arachidonic acid (AA) ratio is a potential predictor of CVD risk. In the present study, we assessed the usefulness of carotid plaque GSM values and EPA/AA ratios in atherosclerotic diabet...

This paper illustrates on an approach to control a mobile robot using DTMF tone through the GSM network. DTMF tones to control a mobile robot are generated by pressing the keypad buttons of a GSM mobile which is counted as remote. The robot receives the tones using another GSM mobile stuck with it. The mobile robot perceives the control tone by using a DTMF decoder IC and a preprogrammed microp...
