In this paper, properties of reflection phase in one-dimensional quaternary photonic crystals combining dispersive meta-materials and positive index materials are investigated by transfer matrix method. Two omnidirectional band gaps are located in the band structure of considered structure. However, we limit our studies to the frequency range of the second wide band gap. We observe that the val...

this paper presents a modified digital image watermarking method based on nonnegative matrix factorization. firstly, host image is factorized to the product of three nonnegative matrices. then, the centric matrix is transferred to discrete cosine transform domain. watermark is embedded in low frequency band of this matrix and next, the reverse of the transform is computed. finally, watermarked ...

Band 3 (Mr = 95,000), the anion transport protein of human erythrocyte membranes exists primarily as a dimer in solutions of nonionic detergents such as octaethylene glycol mono-n-dodecyl ether (C12E8). The role of the oligomeric structure of Band 3 in the binding of [14C]4-benzamido-4'-aminostilbene-2,2'-disulfonate (BADS), an inhibitor of anion transport (Ki = 1-2 microM), was studied by char...

Active network synthesis is important for circuit designer to find new circuits with desired performance. In this paper, a method of Tow-Thomas (TT) Bi-quad band-pass filter circuit generation methods is proposed using nullor representation of the operational amplifier (OPA), and a method for synthesizing active band-stop filters is presented, both of which start from voltage transfer function ...

Sparse matrices arise in many practical scenarios. As a result, support for efficient operations such as multiplication of sparse matrices (spmm) is considered to be an important research area. Often, sparse matrices also exhibit particular characteristics that can be used towards better parallel algorithmics. In this paper, we focus on quasi-band sparse matrices that have a large majority of t...

In this paper, an Ultra High Frequency (UHF) base band processor for a passive tag is presented. It proposes a Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag digital base band architecture which is compatible with the EPC C C2/ISO18000-6B protocol. Several design approaches such as clock gating technique, clock strobe design and clock management are used. In order to reduce the area Decimal Matrix C...

In this paper, the properties of the defect mode in the photonic band gap ofone-dimensional ternary photonic crystals containing high temperature superconductorlayer (SPCs) have been theoretically investigated. We considered the quasi-periodiclayered structures by choosing two order of ternary Thue-Morse structures with mirrorsymmetry. We investigated the transmission spectra of these structure...

It is shown that localization of eigenfunctions in the Wigner band random matrix model with increasing diagonal elements can be related to localization in a band random matrix model with random diagonal elements. The relation is obtained by making use of a result of a generalization of Brillouin-Wigner perturbation theory, which shows that reduced Hamiltonian matrices with relatively small dime...
