We study the power of some exceedance rank tests against location shift and Lehman alternatives for distributions from the uniform, normal, exponential, gamma, and lognormal families. We give the corresponding power functions, obtained by Monte Carlo simulation and discuss the relative merits of the tests.

This paper investigates and confirms one advantageous function of a power packet dispatching system, which has been proposed by authors’ group with being apart from the conventional power distribution system. Here is focused on the function to establish the security of power packet dispatching for prohibiting not only information but also power of power packet from being stolen by attackers. Fo...

Linear feedback shift registers (LFSRs) and nonlinear feedback shift registers (NLFSRs) are major components of stream ciphers. It has been shown that, under certain idealized assumptions, LFSRs and LFSR-based stream ciphers are susceptible to cryptanalysis using simple power analysis (SPA). In this paper, we show that simple power analysis can be practically applied to a CMOS digital hardware ...

The modulation scheme Phase Shift Keying on the Hypersphere (PSKH), a generalization of conventional Phase Shift Keying (PSK) for Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) systems, is introduced. In PSKH, constellation points are distributed over a multidimensional hypersphere. The use of such constellations with Peak-To-Average-Sum-Power-Ratio (PASPR) of 1 allows to use load-modulated transmitters...

Spectral estimation of tissue strain has been performed previously by using the centroid shift of the power spectrum or by estimating the variation in the mean scatterer spacing in the spectral domain. The centroid shift method illustrates the robustness of the direct, incoherent strain estimator. In this paper, we present a strain estimator that uses spectral cross-correlation of the preand po...
