Target Audience: Methodologically oriented scientists interested in accelerating the acquisition of diffusionweighted data using multiband/simultaneous multi-slice techniques. Outcome/Objectives: The presentation will explain how to acquire and reconstruct multiband images with diffusion weighting. The audience should understand the additional constraints imposed by performing diffusion-weighti...

We introduce an approximate method which can be used to simulate the optical conductivity data of correlated multiband systems for normal and superconducting cases by taking advantage of a reversed process in comparison to a usual optical data analysis, which has been used to extract the electron-boson spectral density function from measured optical spectra of single-band systems, like cuprates...

Multiband CDMA is useful for constructing DSCDMA (CDMA) systems over a non-contiguous spectrum. The method by which users are assigned to their respective frequency bands, termed ‘band allocation’, is an important part of assuring good performance in multiband CDMA systems. This paper proposes a novel approach to band allocation based on the transmission power as it is adjusted by power control...

We present a method to give (fused) multiband night-time imagery a natural day-time color appearance. For input, the method requires a false color RGB image that is produced by mapping 3 individual bands (or the first 3 principal components) of a multiband nightvision system to the respective channels of an RGB image. The false color RGB nightvision image is transformed into a perceptually deco...

Multi time-point pseudo-continuous arterial spin labelling (pCASL) with a Look-Locker EPI readout can sample the signal curve of blood kinetics at multiple time points after the labelling pulse. However, due to signal relaxation of labelled blood, the number of readout slices is limited. The aim of this study is to employ a multiband excitation technique to triple the number of readout slices i...

A novel multiband multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna system is proposed. The MIMO antenna system consists of two antenna elements, each of which comprises of three radiators: a driven monopole, an S-shaped strip and an inverted F-shaped strip and occupies footprint of 15x18.5x0.8 mm3 only. The driven monopole acts as a quarter-wave monopole and stimulate higher mode resonance. The tw...

Abstract—In this paper, new multiband fractal-like antennas are proposed. The proposed multiband antenna design is based on a methodology that utilizes the self transformation principle of fractallike rectangular profiles to generate multiband operation. The proposed monopole-type antennas are built on a partial ground plane and fed through a microstrip feed line. The analytical design procedur...

This paper presents the performance of single band impulse radio systems, TH-UWB and DS-UWB, multiband impulse radio systems, MB-UWB, and multiband OFDM systems on the IEEE 802.15 UWB channel models CM1–CM4. The investigated impulse radio systems use approximately the spectrum 3–6 GHz and have a data rate around 100 Mbps. The DS-UWB system with a fractionally spaced Rake receiver with 10 finger...

a novel multiband and broadband fractal patch antenna is presented in this paper. The proposed antenna is compact, simple to design and fabricate. The impedance bandwidth of the proposed antenna could reach 18%, which has rarely been reported for single layer and single patch antennas. Multiband characteristics are also observed and analyzed. All results are proved by simulation and experiment.

We present a pair of sharp lower and upper bounds on the 2-norm of the aliasing error in general multiband sampling representationsfor not necessarily bandlimited multidimensional functions. These boundsimprove and generalize previous bounds. They also complement a recentuniform upper bound due to Higgins. multiband, Poisson summation, error energy.Index TermShannon sampling...
