Detection of interdependent primary systems using wideband cognitive radios
(Elsevier GMBH Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2013)
Cognitive radios (CRs) may be sharing multiple frequency bands with primary systems if the CR is a wideband or an ultra wideband (UWB) system. In that case the CR should ensure all the coexisting primary systems in these ...
Foster impedance data modeling via singly terminated LC ladder networks
(TUBITAK Scientific & Technical Research Council Turkey, 2013)
In this work a lossless model is developed for the given Foster impedance data. In the model a 2-port short-or open-terminated LC ladder is used. After applying the proposed algorithm a realizable driving-point reactance ...
The great game in the Levant: energy geopolitics in the Eastern Mediterranean [Levant’ta büyük oyun: Doğu Akdeniz’in enerji jeopolitiği]
(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği, 2012)
This study explores the historical evolution of the Levant region from the trade system to hydrocarbon geopolitics by using a longue duree approach one which evaluates the region's present situation in light of developments ...
An evolutionary approach for tuning parametric Esau and Williams heuristics
(Palgrave Macmillan Ltd., 2012)
Owing to its inherent difficulty many heuristic solution methods have been proposed for the capacitated minimum spanning tree problem. On the basis of recent developments it is clear that the best metaheuristic implementations ...
Temperature effect on the swelling of PAAm-kappa-carrageenan composites
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012)
The steady-state fluorescence (SSF) technique was used for studying swelling of disc-shaped polyacrylamide (PAAm)-kappa-carrageenan (kappa C) composites which were prepared by free-radical crosslinking copolymerization at ...
Performance of spatial modulation in the presence of channel estimation errors
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2012)
This work investigates the negative effects of channel estimation errors on the performance of spatial modulation (SM) when operating over flat Rayleigh fading channels. The pairwise error probability of the SM scheme is ...
Temperature dependence of oxygen diffusion into polymer/carbon nanotube composite films
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012)
This study examines the transport properties of polystyrene (PS)/multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composite films taking into consideration both MWNT composition and temperature via fluorescence technique. Three different ...
Monitoring the gelation of polyacrylamide-sodium alginate composite by fluorescence technique
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012)
Polyacrylamide (PAAm)-sodium alginate (SA) composite was prepared with different amounts of SA varying in the range between 0.06% and 2% (w/v). The PAAm-SA composite was characterized by the steady-state fluorescence ...
Elastic percolation of swollen polyacrylamide (PAAm)-multiwall carbon nanotubes composite
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2012)
Polyacrylamide (PAAm)-multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composites were prepared via free radical cross-linking copolymerization with different amounts of MWNTs varying in the range between 0.1 and 50 wt%. The mechanical ...
Broadband impedance matching via lossless unsymmetrical lattice networks
(Elsevier GMBH Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2012)
In this paper a broadband impedance matching network (equalizer) design algorithm has been proposed. In the equalizer a lossless unsymmetrical lattice network has been utilized. The branch impedances of the lattice network ...
