Compressive sensing for ultra-wideband channel estimation: on the sparsity assumption of ultra-wideband channels
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2014)
Due to the sparse structure of ultra-wideband (UWB) multipath channels there has been a considerable amount of interest in applying the compressive sensing (CS) theory to UWB channel estimation. The main consideration of ...
Design of Practical Broadband Matching Networks With Mixed Lumped and Distributed Elements
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2014)
Computer-aided design (CAD) tools are always preferred for designing broadband matching networks. However these tools give excellent results when the suitable matching network topology and initial element values are provided. ...
Nutrient Dynamics in Flooded Wetlands. I: Model Development
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2013)
Wetlands are rich ecosystems recognized for ameliorating floods improving water quality and providing other ecosystem benefits. This part of a two-paper series presents a relatively detailed process-based model for nitrogen ...
Nutrient Dynamics in Flooded Wetlands. II: Model Application
(ASCE-AMER SOC CIVIL ENGINEERS, 2013)
In this paper the authors applied and evaluated the wetland nutrient model that was described in Paper I. Hydrologic and water quality data from a small restored wetland located on Kent Island Maryland which is part of the ...
Exploiting heterogeneous parallelism with the Heterogeneous Programming Library
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2013)
While recognition of the advantages of heterogeneous computing is steadily growing the issues of programmability and portability hinder its exploitation. The introduction of the OpenCL standard was a major step forward in ...
Fluorescence quenching method for monitoring oxygen diffusion into PS/CNT composite films
(Elsevier Science SA, 2013)
Oxygen permeabilities of nanocomposite films consisting of multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWNT) and polystyrene (PS) were determined to investigate the oxygen diffusion depending on MWNT and temperature. A method which is ...
Transmembrane helix 6 observed at the interface of beta(2)AR homodimers in blind docking studies
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2015)
Peptide- and protein-protein dockings were carried out on beta(2)-adrenergic receptor (beta(2)AR) to confirm the presence of transmembrane helix 6 (TM6) at the interface region between two beta(2)AR monomers thereby its ...
Developing adaptive multi-device applications with the Heterogeneous Programming Library
(Springer, 2015)
The usage of heterogeneous devices presents two main problems. One is their complex programming a problem that grows when multiple devices are used. The second issue is that even if the codes for these devices can be ...
Joint Channel Estimation and Symbol Detection for OFDM Systems in Rapidly Time-Varying Sparse Multipath Channels
(Springer, 2015)
In this paper we propose a space-alternating generalized expectation maximization (SAGE) based joint channel estimation and data detection algorithm in compressive sensing (CS) framework for orthogonal frequency-division ...
Human dopamine transporter: the first implementation of a combined in silico/in vitro approach revealing the substrate and inhibitor specificities
(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2019)
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by the loss of dopamine-generating neurons in the substantia nigra and corpus striatum. Current treatments alleviate PD symptoms rather than exerting neuroprotective effect on ...
