It is commonly known that wavelet expansions are very sensitive to translation of an input signal due to their dyadic structure. Without proper time alignment of the signal to the decomposition basis vectors, a compact expansion may be unattainable. Recently, work has been done to combat translation sensitivity by determining the best translation-invariant expansion of a signal with respect to ...

A critical review of frequency-shift phenomena a la Doppler effect is presented. The importance of Fermi's theory of 1932 is pointed out,and it is argued that there exist gaps in our understanding of this phenomena at a fundamental level. Alternative mechanism in terms of photon number oscillations is suggested for polarization changing experiments. The physical reality of single photon is revi...

A new model that describes the influence of a laser intracavity frequency shifter is proposed. Laser line broadening that is due to the presence of the frequency shift is derived. The theoretical model is validated by experimental results. Multiwavelength operation of this laser is explained.

We discuss the combination of permutation codes and M-ary frequency shift keying. We show that this combination has special properties that can be used in power-line communications: e.g. constant envelopes, and error correction capability for impulsiveand narrow band noise. We give a simple convolutional encoding and decoding scheme. The outputs of a binary convolutional codes are mapped onto c...

Abstract When processing wide sense stationary (WSS) signals, the sampled data rate of conventional MN bands DFT filter bank is at least MN, while co-prime (co-prime DFTFB) only needs M+N, that sharply lowers sampling rate. Here, M and N are pair integers. However, practical FIR imperfections correlation detection mode arouse spurious peaks in signal power spectrogram, greatly limits applicatio...

A new baseband signal processing method for compensating frequency shift in differential phase-shift keying (DPSK) systems is introduced. This method consists of a signal processor for the initial acquisition of frequency shift and a simple adaptive equalizer for tracking. The former is based on the observation that the effect of frequency shift can be eliminated by using boundary values of the...

Introduction: Exposure to the low frequency electric and magnetic fields (ELF-EMF) is very common in workers occupied in the combined cycle power plant during work shifts  The present study aimed to measure ELF-EMF flux density among shift and non-shift workers, determine job stress among workers and office workers, and identify major factors associated with job stress in the studied groups. M...
