An efficient and distortionless scheme for peak power reduction in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is proposed, which introduces some additional complexity but nearly vanishing redundancy. The approach is very flexible and works with arbitrary numbers of subcarriers and without restriction on the type of modulation applied in them. The core of the approach is the coordination ...

polyphase is a common class of pulse compression waveforms in the radar systems. oppermann code is one of the used codes with polyphone pattern. after compression, this code has little tolerant against doppler shift in addition to its high side lobe level. this indicates that the use of oppermann code is an unsuitable scheme to radars applications. this paper shows that the use of amplitude wei...

Power allocation with peak-to-average power ratio constraints is investigated for transmission over Nakagami-m fading channels with arbitrary input distributions. In the case of delay-limited block-fading channels, we find the solution to the minimum outage power allocation scheme with peak-to-average power constraints and arbitrary input distributions, and show that the signal-to-noise ratio e...

This paper investigates the capacity and capacity per unit cost of Gaussian multiple-access channel (GMAC) with peak power constraints. We first devise an approach based on Blahut-Arimoto Algorithm to numerically optimize the sum rate and quantify the corresponding input distributions. The results reveal that in the case with identical peak power constraints, the user with higher SNR is to have...

Peak oxygen consumption (VO(2) ) during cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET) is a powerful predictor of survival, providing an indirect assessment of cardiac output (CO). Noninvasive indices of CO derived from bioreactance methodology would add significantly to peak VO(2) as a means of risk-stratifying patients with heart failure. In this study, 127 patients (53 ± 14 years of age, 66% male) ...

Wide band code division multiple access (WCDMA) signals, transmitted by the base station high power amplifiers (HPAs), show high peak to average power ratios (PAPR), which results in nonlinear distortions. In this paper, using computer simulations effect of using a predistorted HPA on the symbol error rate (SER) of multi-user detectors in terms of output back-off (OBO) in the transmit power...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of eccentric exercise on anaerobic power, starting speed and anaerobic endurance. The participants performed the maximum cycling sprint test (MCST) prior to eccentric exercise (ECC), 10 minutes after, as well as one hour, 24 hours, 48 hours, and one week after ECC. The peak and mean power, time to attain peak power, time of maintaining peak powe...

Identifying loads that maximize mechanical power is important because training at such loads may optimize gains in dynamic athletic performance. The purpose of this study was to examine correlations between measures of external mechanical power output and internal mechanical joint power output across different loads during a weightlifting exercise. Ten subjects performed 3 sets of the clean exe...

Optimal power allocation for multiple-input multiple-output radar waveform design subject to combined peak and sum power constraints using two different criteria is addressed in this paper. The first one is by maximizing the mutual information between the random target impulse response and the reflected waveforms, and the second one is by minimizing the mean square error in estimating the targe...

OBJECTIVES To validate a simplified estimate of peak power (SPP) against true (invasively measured) peak instantaneous power (TPP), to assess the feasibility of measuring SPP during exercise and to correlate this with functional capacity. DESIGN Development of a simplified method of measurement and observational study. SETTING Tertiary referral centre for cardiothoracic disease. SUBJECTS ...
