Recently, we proposed space-time block coded-joint transmit/receive antenna diversity (STBC-JTRD) for narrow band transmission in a frequency-nonselective fading channel; it allows an arbitrary number of transmit antennas while limiting the number of receive antennas to 4. In this paper, we extend STBC-JTRD to the case of frequency-selective fading channels and propose frequency-domain STBC-JTR...

In this work, we propose a method based on Genetic algorithm hybridized with Pattern Search for joint estimation of Amplitude and Direction of Arrival, azimuth as well as elevation angles using L-type array. Four other schemes, i.e., the Genetic algorithm, Pattern Search, Simulated Annealing and Simulated Annealing hybridized with Pattern Search are also discussed and compared with Genetic algo...

Simulation research on the launch process of a ship-borne multiple launch rocket system is studied in this paper. First, the power spectrum density of the ship’s motion is calculated based on ocean wave energy spectrum, and the movement spectrums of the ship’s random motion are calculated. Then, the model of shipborne rocket launcher system is built by virtual prototype technology. The launch p...

The three-dimensional CMKF-D with only position measurements is extended to solve the radar target tracking problem with range-rate measurements, where the errors between range and range-rate measurements are correlated. Firstly, a pseudo measurement is constructed by the product of range and range-rate measurements to reduce the high nonlinearity of the range-rate measurements with respect to ...

Nano coordinate measuring machines (NCMMs) are technological devices enabling the positioning, touching and measuring of centimetre-sized objects with nanometre precision. When using such measuring machines the specification of measurement results requires the expression of uncertainty of measurement. This paper describes a concept for the expression of threedimensional uncertainty of NCMMs bas...

We present an approximation for the numerical calculation ofČerenkov radio pulses in the Fraunhofer limit from very high energy showers in dense media. We compare it to full Montecarlo simulations in ice studying its range of applicability and show how it can be extended with a simple algorithm. The approximation reproduces well the angular distribution of the pulse around thě Cerenkov directio...

Introduction: Because of importance of impact of the Source to Surface Distance (SSD) in determining of monitor unit for electron-therapy, it is essential to know the Virtual Source Position (VSP) for electron beam for a linear therapeutic accelerator for each energy and field size. , especially using the Khan method (photo distance squared method) And compare the results with...

Quasi-Monte Carlo quadrature methods have been used for several decades. Their accuracy ranges from excellent to poor, depending on the problem. This article discusses how quasi-Monte Carlo quadrature error can be assessed, and what are the factors that innuence it.

For large state-space Markovian Decision Problems MonteCarlo planning is one of the few viable approaches to find near-optimal solutions. In this paper we introduce a new algorithm, UCT, that applies bandit ideas to guide Monte-Carlo planning. In finite-horizon or discounted MDPs the algorithm is shown to be consistent and finite sample bounds are derived on the estimation error due to sampling...

We consider the design of a non-local MonteCarlo algorithm for SU (3) lattice systems according to the idea of embedding the degrees of freedom corresponding to the center of the group Z(3). As a crucial ingredient to reach this goal, we present a practical implementation of a cluster algorithm for Z(3) systems with general random pair interaction. 1 –2– FERMILAB–Pub–92/226–T
