Wavelet packet based channel equalization

Recently, considerable amount of attention is being given to the field of wavelets and wavelet packets. It has found numerous applications in signal representation, image compression and applied mathematics. In this paper, we present a channel equalization method based on wavelet packets. The proposed equalizer structure is based on the fact that for sufficiently narrowband sequences, a non-ideal channel can be modelled as an attenuation and delay. If the data sequence is used to modulate a set of narrowband wavelet packets, then no equalization is required at the receiver end. The equalization problem reduces to that of determining the delay introduced by the channel for each of the wavelet packets. A minimum square variance algorithm for adaptively choosing the delay has been proposed. This algorithm has been shown to perform as desired analytically in a simple delay channel case. Simulations have been used to study its performance in the non-ideal channel’s case and the results corroborate theoretical predictions.

Studies of photoconductivity in β-Apo-8′ carotenal

The photoconductive properties of a carotenoid polyene,β-Apo-8′ carotenal in polycrystalline form has been studied. The growth of the photocurrent shows an overshoot in the growth-time curve before steady state value is attained. This behaviour of photocurrent is proposed to be due to higher value of recombination coefficient than trapping coefficient. From the temperature dependence study it is observed that the steady state photocurrent, at first increases with increase of temperature, attains a maximum at a particular temperatureT _max and then decreases with temperature. TheT _max value agrees with the temperature above and below which steady state photocurrent is attained differently. Monomolecular and bimolecular recombination processes at two temperature regimes are proposed to account for the observed behaviour. The dependence of photocurrent with excitation light intensity and wavelength study provide information on the carrier generation processes. The fast decay of photocurrent have been observed at different temperatures and from this study the decay constant is calculated and it is found to be temperature independent.     

ERD facility for analysis of hydrogen and deuterium in solids

Hydrogen is the lightest element in nature, and so, its detection and quantitative analysis is difficult by the conventional methods utilized for other elements. In the recent years the technique of elastic recoil detection analysis (ERD) using 1–2 MeV He⁺ beam has been developed to quantitatively and simultaneously analyze hydrogen and its isotopes in solids. Such a facility has been set up using the 2 MeV Van-de-Graaff accelerator at IIT Kanpur. It facilitates H and D analysis in a material up to a depth of ∼ 1μm with a detection sensitivity of 0·1 at.% and depth resolution of about 300 ?. The application potential of this setup is illustrated by presenting the results of measurements performed on Al:H:D systems prepared by plasma source ion implantation and highT _c YBCO pellets exposed to humid atmosphere.

A method for multi-parameter PDF estimation of random variables

The probability distribution function (PDF) of a random variable Z is approximated with c·e^Q(z), where Q(z) is a polynomial function and c is normalizing constant. Based upon the weighted residual method, general linear algebraic equations have been derived for the evaluation of the unknown parameters in the polynomial. Numerical examples are presented and the results show that the PDFs obtained using the proposed method converge to those obtained from Monte Carlo simulation as the number of parameters in the approximate PDF increases.
