Conventional time domain rake combining can be replaced by minimum mean square error frequency domain equalisation (MMSE–FDE) with much better performance in a frequencyselective fading channel, since the frequency selectivity of the channel is thoroughly exploited. Chip interleaving is a form of channel interleaving that improves the DS–CDMA performance by taking advantage of the time selectiv...

In designing a self-checking processor, it is essential to recognize the types of failures that are most probable. Matching the checking techniques with the type of faults that are expected to occur should yield the best result with the least amount of hardware. The microprogram control will consist of integrated circuits: large-scale integration (LSI) for the memory and small-scale integration...

Title of dissertation: Using Locality and Interleaving Information to Improve Shared Cache Performance Wanli Liu, Doctor of Philosophy, 2009 Dissertation directed by: Professor Donald Yeung Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering The cache interference is found to play a critical role in optimizing cache allocation among concurrent threads for shared cache. Conventional LRU policy usu...

A new channel interleaving method, called chip interleaving, for direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) is proposed. A chip interleaver scrambles the chips and transforms the transmission channel into a highly time-selective or highly memoryless channel. It was found that the turbo decoding performance which degrades in a fading channel is significantly improved with chip inter...

introduction: excessive temperature rise during drilling of the mandible for dental implant placement might damage adjacent osseous tissues. various factors affect temperature rise, including the geometrical parameters of surgical drills, one of which is the drill bit head angle. the aim of this research was to determine suitable drill bit head angle to induce minimum temperature rise during ma...

This article presents a wideband, energy-efficient digital transmitter (DTX) suitable for multi-mode/multi-band wireless communication applications. It features various operation modes comprising Cartesian (Modes-1/-2) and multi-phase (Modes-3/-4) configurations utilizing LO clocks with different duty cycle in the interleaving/non-interleaving configurations. The compromises polar by mapping <i...

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing with index modulation (OFDM-IM), which transmits information bits via $M$ -ary constellation symbols and indices of the active subcarriers, is a promising OFDM-based multicarrier transmission...

This paper proposes a novel area-efficient folded modified convolutional interleaving (FMCI) architecture for MAP decoder. The end to end delay of proposed FMCI requires only 2M. In addition, the number of latches can reduce to M-2. Hence the proposed FMCI architecture has lesser end to end delay and minimizes the number of latches usage as compare with block interleaving and convolutional inte...
