in this paper we focus on the tracking performance of incremental adaptive LMS algorithm in an adaptive network. For this reason we consider the unknown weight vector to be a time varying sequence. First we analyze the performance of network in tracking a time varying weight vector and then we explain the estimation of Rayleigh fading channel through a random walk model. Closed form relations a...

This paper proposes a method for extracting transmission characteristics of interconnects in printed circuit boards (PCBs) from near-field emission. A wideband microstrip line electric probe is used to measure the There are two key technologies extraction principle, obtaining transfer function and input signal estimation, they explained detail. To validate method, one-trace structures, includin...

The packet pair mechanism has been shown to be a reliable method to measure the bottleneck link capacity on a network path, but its use for measuring available bandwidth is more challenging. In this paper, we use modeling, measurements, and simulations to better characterize the interaction between probing packets and the competing network traffic. We first construct a simple model to understan...

The degree to which measurement accuracy in a vector network analyzer can be improved through error correction is dependent on a number of factors. Modern error correction methods have improved the system accuracy and simplified the calibration procedure. Methods are in place to determine the accuracy of error corrected measurements. And the quality of the calibration standards is key to system...

In addition to the electric field E(r), the associated magnetic field H(r) and current density J(r) characterize any electromagnetic device, providing insight into antenna coupling and mutual impedance. We demonstrate the optical analogue of the radio frequency vector network analyzer implemented in interferometric homodyne scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy for obtaining E(...

This paper proposes a new method for cutoff probe using a nanosecond impulse generator and an oscilloscope, instead of a network analyzer. The nanosecond impulse generator supplies a radiating signal of broadband frequency spectrum simultaneously without frequency sweeping, while frequency sweeping method is used by a network analyzer in a previous method. The transmission spectrum (S21) was ob...

Recent data suggest important biological roles for oxidative modifications of methylated cytosines, specifically hydroxymethylation, formylation and carboxylation. Several assays are now available for profiling these DNA modifications genome-wide as well as in targeted, locus-specific settings. Here we present BiQ Analyzer HiMod, a user-friendly software tool for sequence alignment, quality con...

A free-space microwave nondestructive testing and evaluation module is developed for the low-power, non-ionizing, contactless, real-time characterization of doped composite thin-film materials in an industrial context. The instrumentation proposed built up with a handled vector network analyzer interfaced corrugated horn antennas to measure near-field complex reflection S11 planar prepreg roll-...
