In the past decades, mesocrystal, a kind of nanocrystals with specific crystallographic orientation, has drawn a lot of attention due to its intriguing functionalities. While the research community keeps searching for new mesocrystal systems, it is equally crucial to develop new approaches to tune the properties of mesocrystals. In this work, a self-organized two-dimensional mesocrystal compose...

Adsorption characteristics of the antibiotic meropenem on a novel magnetic material synthesized by surface coating cobalt iron oxide (CFO) with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were systematically investigated. The AuNPs can enhance adsorption capacity having high affinity towards thioether and amine groups in structure. Au coverage CFO decreased saturation magnetization from 55.8 emu/g to 48.8 emu/g...

The third generation partnership project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the latest technology to tackle the increased need for mobile broadband services. Single-Carrier Frequency-Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) technology is being used for uplink (UL) transmission. In this system, the orthogonality between subcarriers is disrupted due to the presence of Carrier Frequency Offsets (CFOs) ...

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is, with substantial progress in digital signal processing, becoming an important part of the telecommunications arena. The most appealing feature of OFDM is the simplicity of the receiver design due to the efficiency with which OFDM can cope with the effects of frequency-selective multipath channels. Multicarrier systems such as OFDM are, howev...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is multicarrier modulation scheme for combating channel impairments such as severe multipath fading and impulsive noise. However, the principal disadvantage of OFDM is that it is highly susceptible to carrier frequency offset (CFO). Carrier frequency offset occurs due to frequency discrepancies between transmitter and receiver and Doppler shift ...

We address the problem of carrier frequency offset (CFO) synchronization in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) communications systems in the context of frequency-selective fading channels. The mathematic model of OFDM systems with cyclic prefix (CP) and virtual subcarrier is derived. And we propose the shift-invariance CFO estimation algorithm based on DOA-MATRIX method. After th...

In direct-conversion orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) receivers, the impact of frequency-dependent I/Q mismatch (IQ-M) with carrier frequency offset (CFO) must be considered. A preamble-assisted estimation is developed to circumvent the frequencydependent IQ-M with CFO. The results of a simulation and an experiment show that the proposed method could provide good estimation eff...
