Lazy Flooding: A New Technique for Information Dissemination in Distributed Network Systems

Flooding is a commonly used technique for network resource and topology information dissemination in the data communication networks. However, due to the well-known N-squared problem it causes network delay in response or even congestion. We propose a new flooding technique, called Lazy Flooding; it floods only when links reach a certain status. It significantly cuts down the number of floods and thus improves the data communication network response time. On the other hand, it has negligible effect on the network performance due to the selected flooding     

A New Technique for Measuring FM & TV Antenna Systems

A New Carrier Recovery Technique for Vestigial-Sideband (VSB) Data Systems

In this concise paper we have developed a new carrier recovery system for vestigial sideband amplitude modulation (VSB-AM) data sets. Neither dc restoration nor extra bandwidth is required for the proposed system. A pilot tone is transmitted at the carrier frequency and the phase jitter is derived from the quadrature chnnnel. "Artificial" phase jitter which is introduced by the data signal can be eliminated by properly shaping the transmitted signal. We have also shown that even in the presence of channel distortion and white Gaussian noise, the proposed system can faithfully track up to 60-Hz phase jitter.

A Technique for the Analysis of Repairable Redundant Systems

A new analytical technique is presented for evaluating the steady-state performance of large repairable systems which cannot be described in terms of series-parallel subsystems. The method, which is based on a novel combinatorial algorithm, is used to calculate the frequency of failures and expected failure durations at each node in networks of repairable devices. The networks may have multiple input and output nodes, but the uptimes and downtimes of the devices in the network are assumed to be exponentially distributed and independent. To demonstrate the usefulness of the technique for large-scale networks of general configuration, the solution of a sample problem using a pilot computer program is also included.

A Pattern-based Approach for Conceptual Modeling of Cooperative Systems

Current society demands the construction of systems that provide support for cooperative work (CSCW). However, the inherent complexity of this kind of systems hinders the specification of the real requirements, as well as the quick and cheap development. To analyze, design and develop systematically these systems, our research group has created a methodology called AMENITIES. We found similar scenarios in the conceptual modeling of a system that are repeatedly modeled. This paper shows the application of software patterns which capture these common situations, improving and facilitating the conceptual modeling (conceptual patterns) of cooperative systems with AMENITIES. For that purpose, we define a UML profile that facilitates the representation of these patterns. Using a uniform template, we describe and model two examples of patterns which can be used in different stages of the methodology.     

A New Technique for the Suppression of the MECG

After a review of the different techniques in use up to now for the detection of an interference-free abdominal fetal electrocardiogram (FECG), with the limitations of these techniques indicated, a new technique is described which does not suffer from these limitations. This technique is based on an optimization procedure applied to the multiplication coefficients of six independent abdominal signals which are added together. The theoretical background of this method is given, as well as the required operational conditions and electrode positions, leading to an FECG reading guaranteed free of maternal electrocardiogram (MECG).     

A New PAPR Reduction Technique in OFDM Systems Using Linear Predictive Coding

High peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) has always been as a major problem in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) that leads to a severe nonlinear distortion in practical hardware implementations of high power amplifier. In this article, a new PAPR reduction method is proposed based on linear predictive coding (LPC). This method proposes the use of signal whitening property of LPC as a preprocessing step in OFDM systems. Error filtering of the proposed method removes the predictable content of stationary stochastic processes which can reduce the autocorrelation of input data sequences and is shown to be very effective solution for PAPR problem in OFDM transmissions. It is shown that the proposed method can achieve a significant reduction in PAPR without degrading the power spectral level, error performance or computational complexity of the systems. It is also shown that the proposed method is independent of modulation schemes and can be applied to any number of subcarriers under both additive white gaussian noise and wireless Rayleigh fading channel.     

New Aspects of Electromagnetic Information Theory for Wireless and Antenna Systems

This paper investigates information-theoretic characterization, via Shannon's information capacity and number of degrees of freedom, of wave radiation (antenna) and wireless propagation systems. Specifically, the paper derives, from the fundamental physical point of view of Maxwell's equations describing electromagnetic fields, the Shannon information capacity of space-time wireless channels formed by electromagnetic sources and receivers in a known background medium. The theory is developed first for the case of sources working at a fixed frequency (time-harmonic case) and is expanded later to the more general case of temporally bandlimited systems (time-domain fields). In the bandlimited case we consider separately the two cases of time-limited and essentially bandlimited systems and of purely bandlimited systems. The developments take into account the physical radiated power constraint in addition to a constraint in the source $L^{2}$ norm which acts to avoid antenna superdirectivity. Based on such radiated power and current $L^{2}$ norm constraints we derive the Shannon information capacity of canonical wireless and antenna systems in free space, for a given additive Gaussian noise level, as well as an associated number of degrees of freedom resulting from such capacity calculations. The derived results also illustrate, from a new information-theoretic point of view, the transition from near to far fields.

A Framework for Modeling and Estimating the Energy Dissipation of VLIW-Based Embedded Systems

This paper describes a technique for modeling and estimating the power consumptionat the system-level for embedded VLIW (Very Long Instruction Word) architectures.The method is based on a hierarchy of dynamic power estimationengines: from the instruction-level down to the gate/transistor-level. Powermacro-models have been developed for the main components of the system: theVLIW core, the register file, the instruction and data caches. The main goalis to define a system-level simulation framework for the dynamic profilingof the power behavior during the software execution, providing also a break-downof the power contributions due to the single components of the system. Theproposed approach has been applied to the Lx family of scalable embedded VLIWprocessors, jointly designed by STMicroelectronics and HPLabs. Experimentalresults, carried out over a set of benchmarks for embedded multimedia applications,have demonstrated an average accuracy of 5% of the instruction-level estimationengine with respect to the RTL engine, with an average speed-up of four ordersof magnitude.     

A 2D Gaussian-Beam-Based Method for Modeling the Dichroic Surfaces of Quasi-Optical Systems

In this article, we propose an approach in the spectral domain to treat the interaction of a field with a dichroic surface in two dimensions. For a Gaussian beam illumination of the surface, the reflected and transmitted fields are approximated by one reflected and one transmitted Gaussian beams. Their characteristics are determined by means of a matching in the spectral domain, which requires a second-order approximation of the dichroic surface response when excited by plane waves. This approximation is of the same order as the one used in Gaussian beam shooting algorithm to model curved interfaces associated with lenses, reflector, etc. The method uses general analytical formulations for the GBs that depend either on a paraxial or far-field approximation. Numerical experiments are led to test the efficiency of the method in terms of accuracy and computation time. They include a parametric study and a case for which the illumination is provided by a horn antenna. For the latter, the incident field is firstly expressed as a sum of Gaussian beams by means of Gabor frames.
