The modulation of spin echoes by homonuclear scalar couplings render the determination of transverse relaxation rates of individual spins difficult, in particular for molecules that are isotopically enriched in 13C or 15N, and for all molecules with scalar ...
Designs for transmit alphabet constrained space-time codes naturally lead to questions about the design of rank distance codes. Recently, diversity embedded multi-level space-time codes for flat fading channels have been designed from sets of binary matric ...
A method to synchronize impulse radio signal in a receiver based on a cross-correlation between an input signal and a template pulse train is described. The method comprises the steps of receiving a radio signal, performing a correlation between the acquir ...
Abstract—In this paper, a novel architecture for a low data-rate, low power consumption Impulse Radio (IR) Ultra- Wideband (UWB) receiver is presented in which the received UWB signal is downconverted to a given intermediate frequency (IF) rather than at b ...
One major drawback of multipath transferring schemes, which is inspired by the usage of different paths with diverse delays, is the emergence of reordering among packets of a flow. This reordering brings some substantial problems (like larger delay and buf ...
Air transport is a fast developing area. Airlines compete for a limited resource, namely airport capacity. The consequence is an increase in airport congestion, which generates huge delays that are enhanced due to delay propagation through the whole networ ...
Rate and diversity impose a fundamental trade-off in communications. This tradeoff was investigated for Intersymbol Interference (ISI) channels in [7]. A different point of view was explored in [4] where high-rate codes were designed so that they have a hi ...
The memoryless noncoherent single-input-single-output (SISO) Rayleigh-fading channel is considered. Closed-form expressions are derived for the mutual information between the output and the input of this channel when the input magnitude distribution is dis ...
The Chong-Motani-Garg inner bound for the two-user interference channel is generalized to a special case of many-user interference channels. By taking a geometric viewpoint and using rate-splitting arguments, it is shown that all operating points in the Ch ...

Smart antennas have been recently applied to improve the capacity and the performance of second generation wireless mobile communication systems. In general, smart antennas reduce the effects of multipath fading and improve the signal-to-noise-plus-interfe ...
