This paper details a theoretical modeling of Brillouin ring fiber laser which incorporates the interaction between multiple Brillouin Stokes signals. The ring cavity was pumped at several Brillouin pump (BP) powers and the output was measured through an optical coupler with various coupling ratios. The first-order Brillouin Stokes signal was saturated with the presence of the second-order Stoke...

Abstract— The spectral efficiency of large CDMA systems using higher order modulation schemes is investigated. Therefore, the asymptotic analysis for single cell systems and random spreading codes is used to obtain the signal-to-interference-andnoise ratio (SINR) after the Matched Filter (MF) and Linear Minimum Mean-Squared-Error (LMMSE) receiver. Then the concepts of capacity and cut-off rate ...

The low-temperature performance of vertical cavity lasers (VCL’s) is of interest for high-speed data transmission from superconducting and cryogenic semiconductor circuits. Our double-fused 1.5 m lasers employ a strain-compensated InGaAsP/InP multiquantum-well (MQW) active region that is sandwiched between two AlGaAs/GaAs distributed Bragg reflectors. Continuous wave (CW) lasing at ambient temp...

A non-regenerative dual-hop wireless system based on a distributed space-time-coding strategy is considered. It is assumed that each relay station retransmits an appropriate scaled space-time coded version of the received signals. The main goal of this paper is to provide an analytical study of an optimum power allocation strategy in relay stations in order to satisfy the quality of service req...

In the area of sparse recovery, numerous researches hint that non-convex penalties might induce better sparsity than convex ones, but up until now the non-convex algorithms lack convergence guarantee from the initial solution to the global optimum. This paper aims to provide theoretical guarantee for sparse recovery via non-convex optimization. The concept of weak convexity is incorporated into...

Broadcast strategy is known as an effective mechanism to disseminate database information to mobile clients. However, with a very large database items, the access time of mobile client increases accordingly due to high waiting time to find their data of interest. In this paper, we propose analytical models for both query access times over broadcast channel and on-demand channel. We examine the ...

Using the generalized valence bond method, we have examined numerous Li atom clusters (up to 13 atoms). Our conclusion is that the optimum metallic bonding involves singly-occupied orbitals localized i n t e r s t i t i a l l y , e.g., in bond midpoints, triangular hollows, and tetrahedra. For LiTR, the low energy isomers have local f ive-fold symmetry axes (as in an icosa~edron) but lead to lo...

This paper evaluates the performance of OFDM BPSK & -QPSK based system with and without channel estimation over Nakagami-m fading channels. Nakagami-m variants are generated by decomposition of Nakagami random variable into orthogonal random variables with Gaussian distribution envelopes. Performance of OFDM system in Nakagami channel has been reported here. The results yield the optimum value ...

Flow-enhanced cell adhesion is an unexplained phenomenon that might result from a transport-dependent increase in on-rates or a force-dependent decrease in off-rates of adhesive bonds. L-selectin requires a threshold shear to support leukocyte rolling on P-selectin glycoprotein ligand-1 (PSGL-1) and other vascular ligands. Low forces decrease L-selectin-PSGL-1 off-rates (catch bonds), whereas h...

There is no standard method for classifying eye fixations. Thresholds for speed, acceleration, duration, and stability of point of gaze have each been employed to demarcate data, but they have no commonly accepted values. Here, some general distributional properties of eye movements were used to construct a simple method for classifying fixations, without parametric assumptions or expert judgme...
