Packet-based and stream-based traffic will be widely accommodated in third generation mobile systems. In direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems, the impact of packet-based traffic is different from streambased traffic because of different power control schemes adopted in a multipath fading environment. In this paper, a closed-loop like power control scheme is considered...

In this paper, a novel pre-compression rate-distortion optimization algorithm is proposed, which can reduce computation power and memory requirement of JPEG 2000 encoder. It can reduce the wasted computational power of the entropy coder (EBCOT Tier-1) and unnecessary memory requirement for the code-stream. Distortion and rate of coding passes are calculated and estimated before coding, and ther...

We explored relationships of water quality parameters with landscape pattern metrics (LPMs), land use-land cover (LULC) proportions, and the advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) or NDVI-derived metrics. Stream sites (271) in Nebraska, Kansas, and Missouri were sampled for water quality parameters, the index of biotic integrity, and a hab...

The goal of this research is to conduct a theoretical investigation about the effect electroosmotic forces on swimming sperms throughout cervical canal. To imitate male semen with self-propulsive spermatozoa, hyperbolic tangent fluid used as base liquid. Swimming move inside ciliated canal and peristalsis occurs due walls. perturbation method solve controlling partial differential set equations...

This study focused on producing flash flood hazard susceptibility maps (FFHSM) using frequency ratio (FR) and statistical index (SI) models in the Xiqu Gully (XQG) of Beijing, China. First, a total of 85 flash flood hazard locations (n = 85) were surveyed in the field and plotted using geographic information system (GIS) software. Based on the flash flood hazard locations, a flood hazard invent...

allium cepa bulbs were germinated in pots for three days on treatment area on which 380 kv high voltage power lines are passing. ten bulbs were set up for each treatment area (0 m (meter), 10 m, 25 m, 50 m and 100+ m for control from power lines). triticum baeoticum boiss. subsp. baeoticum seeds were collected at same distance from power lines on planted field. ten seeds from each area were ger...

the aim of this study is prospecting of iron and manganese in the balvard 1:100000 sheet which is situated in sanandaj - sirjan structural zone utilizing index overlay and fuzzy logic methods in the gis. in this study, the layers for integration, alterations, geological, geophysical, geochemical and structural data based on stream sediments, airborne magnetometeric and remote sensing studies. b...

BACKGROUND Principal component analysis (PCA) has been widely employed for automatic neuronal spike sorting. Calculating principal components (PCs) is computationally expensive, and requires complex numerical operations and large memory resources. Substantial hardware resources are therefore needed for hardware implementations of PCA. General Hebbian algorithm (GHA) has been proposed for calcul...

tectonic processes are major factors controlling landform development in tectonically active areas. in order to evaluate quantitative measurement of tectonic activities in the alamarvdasht basin in the south of iran, six different morphological indices including stream-gradient index (sl), drainage basin asymmetry (af), hypsometric integral (hi), valley floor width-valley height ratio (vf), dra...
