A general approach to the problem of simultaneous computation of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) of two sequences of length N , which may be real, imaginary, conjugated symmetric or conjugated anti-symmetric, using a single N -point DFT of a complex sequence is presented. The framework developed is applied to the simultaneous computation of two DFTs, one DFT and one inverse DFT (IDFT) or t...

Since the invention of the mobile phone, a new generation of mobile communication standard has emerged every 10 years. Upgrading the technology of mobile networks in all areas takes few years. Hence, mobile phones should support the previous communication standards as well as the latest standards. Realizing a multi-standard mobile phone by multiple transceivers in parallel is neither a size-eff...

BACKGROUND Defibrillation threshold (DFT) testing at the time of implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) implantation is widely used in clinical practice, but reliable data supporting its routine use are lacking. We undertook a meta-analysis to evaluate the efficacy of DFT testing compared to no DFT testing at the time of ICD implantation. METHODS We searched the MEDLINE and EMBASE datab...

The past decades have seen density functional theory (DFT) evolve from a rising star in computational quantum chemistry to one of its major players. This Theme Issue, which comes half a century after the publication of the Hohenberg-Kohn theorems that laid the foundations of modern DFT, reviews progress and challenges in present-day DFT research. Rather than trying to be comprehensive, this The...

Density functional theory (DFT) provides a formally exact framework for quantum embedding. The appearance of nonadditive kinetic energy contributions in this context poses significant challenges, but using optimized effective potential (OEP) methods, various groups have devised DFT-in-DFT methods that are equivalent to Kohn-Sham (KS) theory on the whole system. This being the case, we note that...

Fastest Fourier Transform in the West (FFTW) is an adaptive FFT library that generates highly efficient Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) implementations. It is one of the fastest FFT libraries available and it outperforms many adaptive or hand-tuned DFT libraries. Its success largely relies on the huge search space spanned by several FFT algorithms and a set of compiler generated C code (called...

In this study, we compare the single-carrier (SC) waveform adopted in IEEE 802.11ad and unique word discrete Fourier transform spread orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (UW DFT-s-OFDM) waveform. We provide equivalent representations of up-sampling and down-sampling operations of the SC waveform by using discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and inverse DFT to enable explicit comparison of th...
