A markovian model of the error probability density for decision feedback equalizer is proposed and its application to the error propagation probability computation is derived. The model is a generalization of the Lütkemeyer and Noll model proposed in [1]. It is obtained by the analysis of the gaussian mixture distribution of the errors which follows a Markov Process. The analysis of this proces...

This paper proposes two methods for analyzing error propagation in overlay analysis of vector polygons, an analytical and simulation method. First, for the analytical method, the error is derived based on the error propagation law in statistics. In the second method, error propagation of overlay is simulated based on the positional error of the original polygon vertices, assuming a given error ...

Many iterative localization schemes suffer from the negative effect of error propagation, where sensor noise results in estimation errors which then get accumulated and amplified over localization iterations. This paper extends our earlier work in mobile-infrastructure based localization and proposes a computationally efficient error control mechanism to mitigate the error propagation effect. I...

A framework for the analysis of error propagation for high rate runlength-limited codes is developed. The susceptibility to errors of capacity approaching code constructions, the enumerative and sequence replacement technique and bit stuffing, are analyzed in detail. It is shown that the first two techniques experience low error propagation and that they are superior to the popular bit-stuffing...

Operating systems (OSes) are crucial for achieving high availability of computer systems. Even if applications running on an operating system are highly available, a bug inside the kernel may result in a failure of the entire software stack. The objective of this study is to gain some insight into the development of the Linux kernel that is more resilient against software faults. In particular,...

In acquiring digital images, electronic systems not only detect optical signals but also convert them into a digital form for further image processing and exchange. Practical systems can introduce error during color calibration, and when acquiring image scene information. For large populations it is often assumed that the error can be modeled as a random variable having a zero mean. In the case...

Inter-symbol interférence is the main obstacle in reliable digital communications. Except for the spécial partial response signaling system, ISI must be suppressed as much as possible in order to obtain reliable digital communications. In wideband digital com­ munication, equalization is one of the main techniques to reverse ISI channel. Décision feedback equalizer is a popular structure becaus...

Since the discovery that the best error-correcting decoding algorithm can be viewed as belief propagation in a cycle-bound graph, researchers have been trying to determine under what circumstances "loopy belief propagation" is effective for probabilistic inference. Despite several theoretical advances in our understanding of loopy belief propagation, to our knowledge, the only problem that has ...
