Multiple-access interference (MAI) and multipath fading are two of the most significant factors limiting the capacity and performance of direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA) systems. In this paper, synchronous multiuser receivers that combine antenna diversity, RAKE reception, and a multipath decorrelator for MAI cancellation are analyzed in a Nakagami faded environment using a maximal ratio combiner or a selection combiner. A coherent binary phase-shift keying employing DS-CDMA is considered. Arbitrary branch correlation is also considered for any diversity order in the case of identical severity fading on the branches. 相似文献
The charged particle motion for certain configurations of oscillating magnetic fields can be simulated by a Volterra integro-differential equation of the second order with time-periodic coefficients. This paper investigates a simple and accurate scheme for computationally solving these types of integro-differential equations. To start the method, we first reduce the integro-differential equations to equivalent Volterra integral equations of the second kind. Subsequently, the solution of the mentioned Volterra integral equations is estimated by the collocation method based on the local multiquadrics formulated on scattered points. We also expand the proposed method to solve fractional integro-differential equations including non-integer order derivatives. Since the offered method does not need any mesh generations on the solution domain, it can be recognized as a meshless method. To demonstrate the reliability and efficiency of the new technique, several illustrative examples are given. Moreover, the numerical results confirm that the method developed in the current paper in comparison with the method based on the globally supported multiquadrics has much lesser volume computing.
Recently there has been a considerable increase in the number of different Key-Value stores, for supporting data storage and
applications on the cloud environment. While all these solutions try to offer highly available and scalable services on the
cloud, they are significantly different with each other in terms of the architecture and types of the applications, they try
to support. Considering three widely-used such systems: Cassandra, HBase and Voldemort; in this paper we compare them in terms
of their support for different types of query workloads. We are mainly focused on the range queries. Unlike HBase and Cassandra
that have built-in support for range queries, Voldemort does not support this type of queries via its available API. For this
matter, practical techniques are presented on top of Voldemort to support range queries. Our performance evaluation is based
on mixed query workloads, in the sense that they contain a combination of short and long range queries, beside other types
of typical queries on key-value stores such as lookup and update. We show that there are trade-offs in the performance of
the selected system and scheme, and the types of the query workloads that can be processed efficiently. 相似文献
This contribution concerns variance analysis of linear multi-input single-output models when the inputs are temporally white but where different inputs may be correlated. An expression is provided for the variance of a linearly parametrized estimate of the frequency response function from one block, i.e. from one input to the output. In particular, this expression reveals that the variance increases in one block when the number of estimated parameters in another block is increased, but levels off when the number of parameters in the other block reaches the number of parameters in the block in question. It also quantifies exactly how correlation between inputs affects the resulting accuracy and a graphical representation is provided for this purpose. The results are applicable to parallel MISO Hammerstein models when the nonlinearities are known and generalize an existing variance expression for this type of model. 相似文献
Wireless mesh networks (WMNs) introduce a new type of network that has been applied over the last few years. One of the most important developing issues in WMNs is multicast routing, which is a key technology that provides dissemination of data to a group of members in an efficient way. In this article, after an introduction about the structure of a WMN, multicast routing algorithms and protocols in WMNs are surveyed in a detailed and efficient manner. Moreover, effort is made to scale the study into one of the important potential capabilities of multicast routing mechanisms in WMNs, which is taking advantage of using different channels and radios association. While nodes in a single-radio mesh network operating on single-channel have restrictions for capacity, equipping mesh routers with multiple radios using multiple channels can decrease the intention of capacity problem as well as increase the aggregate bandwidth available to the network and improving the throughput. Hence, the purpose of channel assignment is to decrease the interferences while increasing the network capacity and keeping the connectivity of the network. Therefore, this article investigates the multicast protocols considering a definition of three types of WMNs, based on channel-radio association including SRSC, SRMC and MRMC. In its follow, a classification for multicast routing algorithms regarding the achieved optimal solutions will be presented. Finally, a study of MRMC and its relevant problems will be offered, considering the joint channel assignment and the multicast tree construction problem. 相似文献
Phase extraction, phase unwrapping and phase to height conversion are consecutive steps within the fringe projection method for reconstruction of 3D objects. The procedure of determining discontinuities on the wrapped phase, resolving them and achieving the unwrapped phase is called phase unwrapping. A software system was developed that provides the ability to create many kinds of patterns with a verity of desirable properties suitable for different demands in fringe projection systems. In our previous work, an experimental study was reported based on a multi-wavelength unwrapping approach. In the following work, we implemented a new method called binary code pattern unwrapping that is based on time analysis. A comparison of the two unwrapping approaches in terms of resolution, quality, noise, depth accuracy, and computational cost is provided. 相似文献
