1 The paper proposes a Constrained Least Square (CLS) pre-distortion scheme for multiple-input 2 single-output (MISO) multiple access ultra-wideband (UWB) systems. In such a scheme, a simple 3 objective function is defined, which can be efficiently solved by a gradient based algorithm. For the 4 performance evaluation, scenarios CM1 and CM3 of the IEEE 802.15.3a channel model are considered. 5 ...

In this paper, we investigate the dynamics of synchronous totally asymmetric exclusion processes on lattices with a multiple-input-single-output (MISO) junction, which consists of m subchains for the input and one main chain for the output. A MISO junction is a type of complex geometry that is relevant to many biological processes as well as vehicular and pedestrian traffic flow. A mean-field a...

A mixture of steamed soybean and boiled rice with seeded Aspergillus oryzae was naturally fermented without addition of yeasts or Lactobacilli, and kept matured for 12 months at room temperature. Chemical analysis of this rice-koji miso sample for lipid changes during maturation showed that triacylglycerol was gradually decomposed into free fatty acid, with distinct formation of fatty acid ethy...

A clonal selection algorithm (CLONALG) inspires from Clonal Selection Principle used to explain the basic features of an adaptive immune response to an antigenic stimulus. In this study, a new method is proposed for optimization of the Multiple Input Single Output (MISO) fuzzy membership functions using CLONALG. The most appropriate placement of membership functions with respect to fuzzy variab...

In this paper, we extend ultra-wideband (UWB) single input single output (SISO) systems with a hybrid pulse amplitude and position modulation (PAPM) to single input multiple output (SIMO) systems using receive antenna diversity. The performance of a rake receive diversity combining scheme for UWB SIMO systems with a PAPM is examined in a log-normal multipath fading channel and also compared wit...

In this work, an application of conventional generalized predictive control (GPC) to a new HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning) design is presented. As the process is composed of three nonlinear subsystems, two approaches for temperature control are compared; the centralized one, which solves the global control problem as a full MISO (Multi-Input Single-Output) problem, and the decentr...

As a part of the day-ahead market clearing process, Midcontinent Independent System Operator (MISO) solves one of the largest and most challenging Security Constrained Unit Commitment (SCUC) models. Better computational performance of SCUC models not only improves the market efficiency but also facilitates future market developments. This paper introduces recent developments in SCUC formulation...

|A number of techniques have been introduced to construct fuzzy models from measured data. Most attention has been focused on multiple-input, single-output (MISO) systems. This article concentrates on the identi cation of multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) systems by means of product-space fuzzy clustering with adaptive distance measure (the Gustafson-Kessel algorithm). The MIMOmodel is rep...

Over 80 taxa of mostly agriculturally important legumes were surveyed as sources of the metabolites, genistein and daidzein. Remarkably high concentrations (over 2 g.kg-1 dry weight) of the anticancer metabolite, genistein, were found in the leaves of Psoralea corylifolia (Indian bread root). All other legumes, with the exception of fermented soybean miso, had genistein levels < 400 mg.kg-1 dry...

In the context of sensor networks, where every few dB saving counts, the novel node cooperation schemes are reviewed where MIMO techniques play a leading role. These methods could be treated as joint approach for designing physical layer of their communication scenarios. Then we analyzed the BER performance of transmission diversity schemes under a general fading channel model and proposed a po...
