Abstract. In this paper, full rate space-time-frequency coding applied to orthogonal frequency division multiplexing based power line communication systems. The proposed systems yield both time and frequency diversity and keep transmission rate full. Performances of the systems are evaluated for three conductors of low voltage indoor cables and are compared with space-frequency and space-time-f...

Background. Appropriate complementary feeding practice is essential for growth and development of children. This study aimed to assess dietary diversity and meal frequency practice of infants and young children in Ethiopia. Methods. Data collected in the Ethiopian Demographic and Health Survey (EDHS) from December 2010 to June 2011 were used for this study. Data collected were extracted, arrang...

LTE is a broadband wireless access network offers rich suite of multimedia applications and developed by Third generation partnership project is designed to support ubiquitous delivery of multimedia services. For this reason, numerous research groups are annoying to utilize its concert. Scheduling and resource allocations are the vital components of wireless data schemes. The CSI (channel state...

This paper proposes high-rate full-diversity spacefrequency trellis code (SFTC) designs, which achieve the full diversity advantage at high transmission rate, for frequency selective fading channels. The proposed SFTC are derived based on the concept of concatenated space-time block code (STBC) and multiple trellis coded modulation (MTCM) encoder constructions. The existing SFTC designs only pr...

INTRODUCTION: Understanding the diversity of sand flies is important for the epidemiology and control of leishmaniasis. This study aimed to understand the frequency, diversity, and seasonality of medically important sand flies in the municipality of Sinop, State of Mato Grosso, Brazil. METHODS: The study was conducted in an urban area, including four ecotypes with different levels of urbaniz...

genetic diversity is one of the three levels of biodiversity. the aim of present study was to compare levels of genetic polymorphism between wild bream populations using seven microsatellite loci. genetic diversity was investigated by studying samples collected from two regions, the coast of chamkhale and bandaranzali of gilan province. a total of seven microsatellite loci (mfw7, mfw26, mcs1eh,...

The next generation wireless communication systems are expected to support high speed data trans mission However associated with high transmission rates is the problem of multipath inter symbol interference ISI due to frequency selective fading Decision feedback equalization DFE and antenna diversity combining are two practical techniques for combating multipath ISI In this paper we in vestigat...
