the s-transform has widely been used in the analysis of non-stationary time series. a simple method to obtain depth estimates of gravity field sources is introduced in this study. we have developed a new method based on the spectral characteristics of downward continuation to estimate depth of structures. this calculation procedure is based on replacement of the fourier transform with the s-tra...

Smart antenna is considered as one of the most effective means for enhancing wireless system capacity. When fractional loading is accompanied with slow-frequency hopping (SFH), soft capacity can be realized in time-division multiple access (TDMA) wireless networks. Then, the interference reduction due to smart antennas, power control, and discontinuous transmission can be directly translated in...

objective(s) comparison of prooxidant-antioxidant balance (pab) assay with crocin assay. materials and methods twenty eight serum samples were chosen, pab and the total antioxidant capacity were measured by pab assay and crocin, respectively, and the correlation of both assays, along with their correlation with other clinical and biochemical parameters, were determined. results a significant ne...

Cognition means state and contextual awareness, reasoning and conclusion formulation, and a method by which application can be re-configured. Cognitive Radio (CR) is one such Intelligent Wireless Communication system that is built on Software Defined Radio which collects information from the surrounding environment and uses this learning to adapt itself to the variation in the input stimuli [7]...

Cognitive Network is a technique which is used to improve the spectrum utilization. Current network scenario is experiencing the huge spectrum scarcity problem due to the fixed assignment policy so in this method great amount of spectrum remain unused. To overcome this limitation the spectrum allocation must be in dynamic manner. In this paper the spectrum allocation is discussed thoroughly. In...

Effects of wall material on the channel capacity of an indoor multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system are investigated using a hybrid technique of the method of moments (MoM) and the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method with consideration of the Ricean K factor and the effective degrees of freedom (EDOF) of multiple paths. key words: MIMO, channel capacity, indoor channel, hybrid me...

The error probability and capacity of a time-hopping ultra-wideband (UWB) communication system with receive diversity are investigated.We consider pulse amplitudemodulation (PAM) and pulse-positionmodulation (PPM) over additive white Gaussian channels for a single-user system. A multiuser environment with PPM is also investigated. It is shown that the communication distance and error performanc...

Background and Aims: The rate of urinary tract infection caused by the extended-spectrum-β-lactamase- (ESBL) producing Escherichia coli (E. coli) is increasing worldwide. This study aimed to assess the frequency of blaCTX-M genes in the E. coli isolated from urinary tract infection (UTI) in outpatients. Methods: 240 E. coli bacteria were isolated from the outpatients’ urine samples in the Kerma...

The 4G methodologies like LTE, LTE-A cellular network has been developed. Such technologies are considered to improving the network capacity and end user throughput. To improve the profitability, WANs should use the energy and spectral efficient design. The goal of this project is to present the design of novel hybrid approach to improving the spectrum and energy efficiency. we presented the op...
