In this work, we propose a new multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) concept, which is called coordinate interleaved orthogonal design with media-based modulation (CIOD-MBM). The proposed two novel CIOD-MBM schemes provide improved data rates as well diversity gain while enabling hardware simplicity using single radio frequency (RF) chain. Moreover, the equivalent channel model, reduced complex...

Background: Enzymatic hydrolysis of lactose is one of the most important biotechnological processes in the food industry, which is accomplished by enzyme β-galactosidase (β-gal, β-D-galactoside galactohydrolase, EC 3.2.1.23), trivial called lactase. Orthogonal arrays design is an appropriate option for the optimization of biotechnological processes for the production of microbial...

we use many kinds of combinations of raw materials and production levels in producing composite materials. testing all the states are difficult or even impossible. taguchi method is a numerical method which predicts optimum state of composite materials using special orthogonal arrays. in this research we have discussed useablity of this method and its’ potential in finding optimum mix design of...

Preliminary layout design of buildings has a substantial effect on the ultimate design of structural components and accordingly influences the construction cost. Exploring structurally efficient forms and shapes during the conceptual design stage of a project can also facilitate the optimum integrated design of buildings. This paper presents an automated method of determining column layout desi...

To overcome the drawbacks of premature and poor convergence of classical PSO, a new particle swarm optimization is proposed by combining extrapolation technique and orthogonal design. Orthogonal design is introduced to design self-adaptive orthogonal crossover operator (SOC) which self-adaptively adjusts the number of orthogonal array’s factors and the location for dividing the parent particles...

This paper provides a general construction technique for rectangular matrices whose elements are quaternion variables and whose column vectors are formally orthogonal. These matrices are named quaternion orthogonal designs, in parallel with the well-known constructs of real and complex orthogonal designs. The proposed construction technique provides the first infinite family of this type of qua...
