Recent wavelet research has primarily focused on real-valued wavelet bases. However, complex wavelet bases ooer a number of potential advantageous properties. For example, it has been recently suggested 1], 2] that the complex Daubechies wavelet can be made symmetric. However, these papers always imply that if the complex basis has a symmetry property then it must exhibit linear phase as well. ...

Orthogonal electrodes have been reported to produce high velocity microflows when excited by ac signals, showing potential for micropumping applications. This paper investigates the microflow reversal phenomena in such orthogonal electrode micropumps. Three types of microflow fields were observed by changing the applied electric signals. Three ac electrokinetic processes, capacitive electrode p...

This paper proposes the use of new target vectors for MLP learning in EEG signal classification. A large Euclidean distance provided by orthogonal bipolar vectors as new target ones is explored to improve the learning and generalization abilities of MLPs. The data set consisted of EEG signals captured from normal individuals and individuals under brain-death protocol. Experimental results are r...

Intensively growing approach in signal processing and acquisition, the Compressive Sensing approach, allows sparse signals to be recovered from small number of randomly acquired signal coefficients. This paper analyses some of the commonly used threshold-based algorithms for sparse signal reconstruction. Signals satisfy the conditions required by the Compressive Sensing theory. The Orthogonal M...

Signal distortions in communication systems occur between the transmitter and the receiver; these distortions normally cause bit errors at the receiver. In addition interference by other signals may add to the deterioration in performance of the communication link. In order to achieve reliable communication, the effects of the communication channel distortion and interfering signals must be red...
