Brown adipose fat tissue of a mouse dissipates the animal’s energy in the form of heat. Chronically recording the temperature of this tissue helps biologists to study the metabolism of the animal and gain new insights about the obesity in humans. Such temp ...
A coding scheme is proposed for the memoryless Gaussian broadcast channel with correlated noises and feedback. For all noise correlations other than ±1, the gap between the sumrate that the scheme achieves and the full-cooperation bound vanishes as the sig ...

Recording neural activities plays an important role in numerous applications ranging from brain mapping to implementation of brain-machine interfaces (BMI) to recover lost functions or to understand the mechanisms behind the neurological disorders such as ...
The scalability of on-chip analytical systems based on field-effect transistors as pH sensors is limited by the degradation of the signal to noise ratio when decreasing the device size. Nano-sized tri-gate transistors such as silicon nanowires and nanoribb ...
An Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) using the low duty-cycle nature of pulse-based Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) communications to reduce its power consumption is proposed. Implemented in CMOS 180 nm technology, it can capture a 5 ns window at 4 GS/s each 100 ns, ...
As CMOS processes continue to scale to smaller dimensions, the increased fT of the devices and smaller parasitic capacitance allow formore power efficient and faster digital circuits to be made. But at the same time, output impedance of transistors has gon ...
Fourier transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) enables comprehensive analysis of complex molecular mixtures. Given the broad intensity ranges of components in the mass spectra, it is imperative to accurately determine a noise threshold level above which peak a ...
Acoustic devices that break reciprocity, for instance acoustic isolators or circulators, may find exciting applications in a variety of fields, including imaging, acoustic communication systems, and noise control. Non-reciprocal acoustic propagation has ty ...
In this paper, the detection of a small reflector in a randomly heterogeneous medium using secondharmonic generation is investigated. The medium is illuminated by a time-harmonic plane wave at frequency ω. It is assumed that the reflector has a nonzero sec ...
