Digital pulse compression is the technique to convert short pulse to long pulse because energy content of long pulse with low peak power would be the same with short pulse having high peak power. In this paper pulse compression is performed by Matched Filter in signal processing environment. At some finite interval of time the high peak amplitude of signal with narrow bandwidth gives the energy...

Performance of an air-standard Atkinson cycle is analyzed by using finite-time thermodynamics. The irreversible cycle model which is more close to practice is founded. In this model, the nonlinear relation between the specific heats of working fluid and its temperature, the friction loss computed according to the mean velocity of the piston, the internal irreversibility described by using the c...

We approach the theoretical problem of compressing a signal dominated by gaussian noise. We present accurate expressions for the compression ratio which can be reached under the light of Shannon’s noiseless coding theorem, for a linearly quantized stochastic gaussian signal (noise). The compression ratio decreases logarithmically with the amplitude of the frequency spectrum of the noise P (f). ...

We report the use of nonlinear compression in a very large mode-area rod-type photonic crystal fiber. This fiber allows the use of high energy pulses in the few microjoule range. We demonstrate the compression of 4 microJ, 338 fs pulses from a fiber chirped pulse amplification (FCPA) system down to 49 fs, 41 MW peak power pulses at a repetition rate of 200 kHz with an average power of 400 mW. T...

This manuscript addresses the problem of non-invasive fetal Electrocardiogram (ECG) signal acquisition with low power/low complexity sensors. A sensor architecture using the Compressive Sensing (CS) paradigm is compared to a standard compression scheme using wavelets in terms of energy consumption vs. reconstruction quality, and, more importantly, vs. performance of fetal heart beat detection i...

Building a new class of H.264 devices without external DRAM Power is an increasingly important consideration for the majority of system designers. This is particularly true in the case of small handheld consumer devices such as cameras, camcorders and mobile phones. In such devices, video compression technology is used that relies on power hungry DRAMs to store the reference frames during the e...

∗ Work supported by the U.S. Department of Energy under contract DE-AC03-76SF00515. † Also with the Communications and Electronics Department, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt. Abstract Over the years, various concepts have been developed for the temporal compression of high power pulsed rf. Such techniques are integral to the efficient design of linear colliders whose power sources can produce pu...

Due to its relative simplicity, the JPEG compression algorithm requires less hardware or software resources with respect to new compression algorithms, for example the JPEG2000 and the JPEG XR. This makes it suitable for low-power applications. Moreover, features embedded in the JPEG2000 and the JPEG XR, such as the scalability of the image stream, can be added to the main JPEG core, making an ...

This work presents an electrocardiogram (ECG) compression processor for wireless sensors with configurable data lossless and lossy compression. Lifting wavelet transforms of 9/7-M and 5/3 are employed for signal decomposition instead of traditional wavelet. A hybrid encoding scheme improves compression efficiency by encoding the higher scales of decomposed coefficients with modified embedded ze...
