We describe some constructions of orthonormal lattices in totally real subfields of cyclotomic fields, obtained by endowing their ring of integers with a trace form. We also describe constructions of quaternion division algebras over such fields. Orthonormal lattices and quaternion division algebras over totally real fields find use in wireless networks in ultra wideband communication, and we d...

Ultra Wide Band (UWB) communications offers a radically different approach to wireless communication compared to conventional narrow band systems. Global interest in the technology is huge. This white paper reports on the state of the art of UWB wireless technology and highlights key application areas, technological challenges, higher layer protocol issues, spectrum operating zones and future d...

This paper describes the measurement techniques of emissions from UWB devices discussed in ITU-R task group (TG) 1/8 to study the compatibility between ultra-wideband (UWB) devices and radiocommunication services. This paper also provides the background idea behind the measurement methods, as the final output of the discussion, i.e. ITU-R Recommendation, will not contain any citations to the re...

A Wideband diffusion tensor imaging is successfully performed to acquire two images in one single excitation. 2-slices are excited/acquired simultaneously using 2D Wideband modified pulse-gradient spin-echo sequence. The calculated diffusion tensors of the grapefruit are clearly displayed on the eigenvector map, and proven to be correct. The result of this study directly indicates a reduction o...

Commonly used wideband adaptive feedback cancellation techniques do not provide satisfactory performance for reducing feedback oscillation in hearing aids. In this paper, a band-limited adaptive feedback cancellation algorithm using normalized filtered-X LMS techniques is proposed that provides good cancellation efficiency, convergence behavior and better output sound quality for speech signals...

Microstrip realization of beam forming network integrated with dual-band antenna array on silicon substrate is presented. Design and implementation of broad band topologies of hybrid and phase shifter are discussed and further integrated to realize wideband 4× 4 Butler matrix. Proposed wideband Butler matrix is used to realize single-band and dual band antenna architectures on silicon substrate...

In this paper an rectangular patch with parasitic stub whose edge have been cut , with two slots near the feedline has been proposed. The antenna is designed using HFSS software. The designed antenna shows wideband characteristics having simulated bandwidth of 96 %.The overall dimension of the antenna are 35×35×1.6 mm 3 .This antenna obtained maximum gain of 9.55dB having VSWR is less than 2.
