A complete diallel cross of nine cotton genotypes (Gossypium hirsutum L. & Gossypium barbadense L.) viz Delinter, Sindose-80, Omoumi, Bulgare-539, Termez-14, Red leaf (Native species), B-557, Brown fiber and Siokra-324 having diverse genetic origins was conducted over two years to determine the potential for the improvement of yield, its components, oil and fiber qual...

The use of a sacrificial cathode additive that contains large amount lithium is one potential solution to compensate for the irreversible capacity loss associated with next-generation anodes such as silicon. Antifluorite-type Li6CoO4 has attracted attention owing its remarkably high theoretical extraction capacity. However, complex mechanism well oxygen from not understood. A generalizable comp...

This paper presents a bandwidth-eecient, power-limited still image transmission system based on subband coding and 64-QAM. A new optimization procedure, based on the simulated annealing algorithm, is used to optimize the map-pings between quantized subband samples and the modulation signal constellation. The optimization criterion is the mean square error between the transmitted and the reconst...

Optimal power allocation for secure estimation of multiple deterministic parameters is investigated under a total constraint. The goal to minimize the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) at an intended receiver while keeping errors eavesdropper above specified target levels. To that end, optimization problem formulated by considering measurement models involving linear transformation parameter vector...

In this paper a sub-optimal control technique is proposed for a linear Gaussian system with a few distributed interacting sub-systems. Controller of each sub-system has only access to its own measurement and a noisy version of measurement and control vectors of other sub-systems that are communicated through an Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) communication network. The power to be allocate...
