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 ...
In digital holographic microscopy, shot noise is an intrinsic part of the recording process with the digital camera. We present a study based on simulations and real measurements describing the shot-noise influence in the quality of the reconstructed phase ...
The joint effects of IQ imbalance and phase noise on OFDM systems are analyzed, and a compensation scheme is proposed to improve the system performance. The scheme consists of a joint channel estimation algorithm and a joint data symbol estimation algorith ...
A new holographic technique based on a numerical reconstruction method is presented and applied to endoscopic holograms. The hologram is obtained by the interference between the light reflected by the object and a reference beam taken as a plane wave trave ...
Abstract: The use of coherent averaging in building acoustics is familiar to those who use deterministic signals (e.g. MLS) as the basis for their measurements. The primary concern is to achieve a sufficient signal to noise ratio so that results relate to ...
Objective To evaluate a transverse electromagnetic (TEM), a circularly polarized (CP) (birdcage), and a 12-channel phased array head coil at the clinical field strength of B (0) = 3T in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), signal homogeneity, and maps of ...
Reported MOSFET measurements concern mostly external radiotherapy and in vivo dosimetry. In this paper, we apply the technique for absolute dosimetry in the context of HDR brachytherapy using an 192Ir source. Measured radial dose rate distributions in wate ...
The LHCb experiment (Large Hadron Collider beauty) is one of the four experiments under construction at the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) at CERN near Geneva. It is planned to start in 2007 and its goal is the study of b-quark physics. The LHC is a circular ...
In this paper, the bit error rate (BER) performance for an ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB) impulse radio in an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) transmission channel and with Gaussian jitter is estimated. The assumed receiver combines the received pulses to ...
Head orientation in the sagittal plane was assessed before and the second and sixth days after a prolonged microgravity exposure (6 months) in 7 astronauts, which were instructed to execute various locomotor movements (stair ascent, jump down and level wal ...
