The waveform-relaxation method is an iterative method for analysis of nonlinear dynamical system. Two waveform-relaxation algorithms i.e., Gauss-Seidel(GS) and Gauss-Jacobi(GJ) algorithms are presented for analysis of dynamical system. Then organization of a waveform-relaxation circuit simulator is described.

Biphasic defibrillation waveforms are now accepted as being more effective at terminating ventricular fibrillation (VF) than monophasic waveforms. If two phases are better than one, this naturally leads to the hypothesis that additional phases improve efficacy. This study tests the hypothesis by adding one additional phase. We examined the efficacy of 18 different triphasic waveforms simultaneo...

We describe the spectra and pseudospectra of continuous time and discrete time waveform relaxation operators. Since the spectrum of the finite-interval waveform relaxation operator is only a singleton, the spectrum of the infinite-interval operator is typically used to describe the behavior of waveform relaxation algorithms. Here, we show that the pseudospectrum is a more useful tool for analyz...

Cognitive radar is a new framework of radar system proposed by Simon Haykin recently. Adaptive waveform selection is an important problem of intelligent transmitter in cognitive radar. In this paper, the problem of adaptive waveform selection is modeled as stochastic dynamic programming model. Then Q-learning is used to solve it. Q-learning can solve the problems that we do not know the explici...

In this work we propose an orthogonal pulse waveform for wireless ultra wideband (UWB) transmission. The design is based on an ideal low-pass prototype filter having a windowed sinc impulse response. The frequency response of the prototype filter is transferred to the high frequency region using a specific sign modulator. The UWB pulse waveform comprises of the weighted summation of the left si...

The most frequent initial rhythm in out-of-hospital witnessed cardiac arrest is ventricular fibrillation (VF) and electrical defibrillation is still the only effective therapy for the termination of this life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia. Even though earlier defibrillation is greatly emphasized during cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), unnecessary or repetitive high energy defibrillations a...

We address the problem of adaptive waveform design for extended target recognition in cognitive radar networks. A closed-loop active target recognition radar system is extended to the case of a centralized cognitive radar network, in which a generalized likelihood ratio (GLR) based sequential hypothesis testing (SHT) framework is employed. Using Doppler velocities measured by multiple radars, t...

Voice production models are used for speech compression thus reducing the encoding data rates and storage space for speech signaling processing. The legacy voice production model consists of a vocal source model and a vocal tract model. This paper presents a simpler voice production model adapted to waveform coding of speech: the Mathieu Waveform Coder (MWC) model. The MWC model yields weighted...

We demonstrate coherent control of single-photon absorption and reemission in a two-level cold atomic ensemble. This is achieved by interfering the incident single-photon wave packet with the emission (or scattering) wave. For a photon with an exponential growth waveform with a time constant equal to the excited-state lifetime, we observe that the single-photon emission probability during the a...

The analysis of data derived by full-waveform laser scanning systems is of great interest. In this study, we estimate the impulse response of a laser scanning system capturing the waveform. Considering the impulse response of the system is important for precise waveform analysis. The characteristic of the system has to be mentioned to interpret the pulse properties in an accurate way. We determ...
