A hybrid approach to machine-tool selection through AHP and simulation
(Taylor & Francis, 2007)
The selection process of a machine tool has been a critical issue for companies for years because the improper selection of a machine tool might cause many problems having a negative effect on productivity precision ...
Blind-phase noise estimation in OFDM systems by sequential Monte Carlo method
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2006)
One of the main drawbacks of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems is the phase noise (PN) caused by the oscillator instabilities. Unfortunately due to the PN the most valuable feature namely orthogonality ...
Atomic force microscopy and spectroscopy studies of annealed Ce/Ti/Zr mixed oxide thin films prepared by sol-gel process
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2006)
Mixed Ce/Ti/Zr oxide thin films with a molar ratio of 0.5:0.25:0.25 were prepared using the sol-gel process and deposited on glass substrates by the dip coating technique. The effect of heat treatment temperature on surface ...
A low-complexity time-domain MMSE channel estimator for space-time/frequency block-coded OFDM systems
(Hindawi Publishing Corporation, 2006)
Focusing on transmit diversity orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) transmission through frequency-selective channels this paper pursues a channel estimation approach in time domain for both space-frequency ...
Recurrent tuberculous pseudoaneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta - A case report
(WESTMINSTER PUBL INC, 2006)
Tuberculous pseudoaneurysm of the aorta is a rare disease that is uniformly fatal if not treated properly. The authors present a case of a recurrent tuberculous false aneurysm of the descending thoracic aorta that was ...
The surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation
(Turkish Soc Cardiology, 2007)
The surgical treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) has entered a new era with the development of new tools and advanced techniques. The Maze III operation remains as the gold standard for the surgical treatment of AF. ...
Iterative channel estimation and decoding of turbo coded SFBC-OFDM systems
(IEEE, 2007)
We consider the design of turbo receiver structures for space-frequency block coded orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (SFBC-OFDM) systems in the presence of unknown frequency and time selective fading channels. ...
Thermal rearrangement of 2-acetoxy-266-trimethylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexane: Theoretical elucidation of the mechanism
(Elsevier Science, 2007)
Bicyclohexenes are believed to be the immediate precursors of aromatic compounds. As a part of the exploratory study of thermal aromatization reactions 266-trimethylbicyclo[3.1.0]hexan-2-ol and its ester derivative ...
Design of practical matching networks with lumped elements via modeling
(IEEE, 2007)
It is a common practice to utilize commercially available software tools to design matching networks for wireless communication systems. Most of these tools require a properly selected matching network topology with good ...
Reflectance-based Foster impedance data modeling
(Fachverlag Schiele Schon, 2007)
A reflectance-based method is presented to model a set of given Foster impedance data as a lossless singly terminated two-port consisting of lumped-elements in short or open termination. The basis of the new method rests ...
