The capacity of the bosonic channel with additive Gaussian noise is unknown, but there is a known lower bound that is conjectured to be the capacity. We have quantified the gap that exists between this known achievable rate and rates achievable by the known methods of detection including direct, heterodyne, and homodyne detection. We have also quantified these capacities in the case of multiple...

Multiple-input–multiple-output (MIMO) systems have the potential to achieve very high capacities, depending on the propagation environment. Capacity increases as signal correlation decreases. We present the measurements of a MIMO system under strong and weak line-of-sight conditions. The system capacity decreases as the distance from the transmitter increases. Indeed the transmitter correlation...

The capacity performance of multi-user multiple input multiple output (MIMO) in a cellular system is of a great interest. This paper presents a comparative study on the transmit power control (TPC) schemes for uplink multi-user MIMO systems. Two kinds of TPC schemes, namely, zero-outage TPC and minimum interference TPC, are considered. The capacities of both schemes are theoretically analyzed a...

This paper revisits manipulation via capacities in centralized two-sided matching markets. Sönmez (1997) showed that no stable mechanism is nonmanipulable via capacities. We show that non-manipulability via capacities can be equivalently described by two types of non-manipulation via capacities: non-Type-I-manipulability meaning that no college with vacant positions can manipulate by dropping s...

This paper is concerned with the capacities of spectrally overlaid narrow-band and wide-band systems using two code-division multiple-access (CDMA) techniques: a single-code and a multicode. The capacity is defined here as the maximally achievable total throughput in the narrow-band and wide-band subsystems. User signal power in the overlay systems affects the performance of the systems. The si...

A compact two element MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) system is proposed using a multi slot patch antenna employing polarization diversity. The proposed MIMO system offers improved bandwidth, return loss and isolation characteristics. The system resonates at 5.35GHz and 5.81GHz frequencies for VSWR≤2, which can be used for 4G & WiMAX applications. The simulation results of return loss, mu...

In the context of multicriteria decision making whose aggregation process is based on the Choquet integral, bi-capacities can be regarded as a natural extension of capacities when the underlying evaluation scale is bipolar. The notion of entropy, recently generalized to capacities to measure their uniformity, is now extended to bi-capacities. We show that the resulting entropy measure has a ver...

Studies of sensory capacities in past life forms have offered new insights into their adaptations and lifeways. Audition is particularly amenable to study in fossils because it is strongly related to physical properties that can be approached through their skeletal structures. We have studied the anatomy of the outer and middle ear in the early hominin taxa Australopithecus africanus and Parant...

The development of emotional regulation capacities in children at high versus low risk for externalizing disorder was examined in a longitudinal study investigating: a) whether disturbances in emotion regulation precede and predict the emergence of externalizing symptoms; and b) whether sensitive maternal behavior is a significant influence on the development of child emotion regulation.
