Optimal Power Allocation Between Training and Data for MIMO Two-Way Relay Channels
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2015)
Power allocation between training and data in MIMO two-way relay systems is proposed which takes into consideration both the symmetric and asymmetric cases of the two sources. For the former we present a closed form for ...
Numerical solution and distinguishability in time fractional parabolic equation
(Springer International Publishing Ag, 2015)
This article deals with the mathematical analysis of the inverse problem of identifying the distinguishability of input-output mappings in the linear time fractional inhomogeneous parabolic equation D(t)(alpha)u(x t) = ...
Elasticity Study of PAAm-kappa C Composite Prepared in Various kappa C Content and Measured at Several Temperatures
(Polish Acad Sciences Inst Physics, 2015)
Polyacrylamide (PAAm)-kappa carrageenan (kappa C) composite gels were prepared via free radical crosslinking copolymerization with various (w/v) percentages of kappa C in the range between 0.5 and 3 (w/v)% of kappa C . ...
