A low-complexity feed-forward carrier phase estimation (CPE) technique is presented for dual-polarization (DP)-16-QAM transmission systems. By combining QPSK partitioning, maximum likelihood (ML) detection and phase offset estimation between signals in different polarizations, simulation and experimental results for a 200 Gb/s DP-16-QAM system demonstrate similar linewidth tolerance to the best...

Abstract. Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) from diesel fuel is known to be significantly sourced the atmospheric oxidation of aliphatic hydrocarbons. In this study, formation linear alkane SOA was predicted using Unified Partitioning Aerosol Phase Reaction (UNIPAR) model that simulated multiphase reactions model, oxygenated products photooxidation alkanes a nearly explicit gas kinetic mechanism....

In this paper we present a parallel formulation of a multilevel k-way graph partitioning algorithm, that is particularly suited for high latency message-passing libraries. The multilevel k-way partitioning algorithm reduces the size of the graph by collapsing vertices and edges (coarsening phase), finds a k-way partitioning of the smaller graph, and then it constructs a k-way partitioning for t...

Symbolic time series analysis (STSA) of complex systems for anomaly detection has been recently introduced in literature. An important feature of the STSA method is extraction of relevant information, imbedded in the measured time series data, to generate symbol sequences. This paper presents a wavelet-based partitioning approach for symbol generation, instead of the currently practiced method ...
