This work considers space-time channel coding for systems with multiple-transmit and a single-receive antenna, over space uncorrelated block-fading (quasi-static) channels. Analysis of the outage probability over such channels reveals the existence of a threshold phenomenon. The outage probability can be made arbitrary small by increasing the number of transmit antennas, only if the E/sub b//N/sub 0/ is above a threshold which depends on the coding rate. Furthermore, it is shown that when the number of transmit antennas is increased, the /spl epsi/-capacity of a block-fading Rayleigh channel tends to the Shannon capacity of an additive white Gaussian noise channel. This paper also presents space-time codes constructed as a serial concatenation of component convolutional codes separated by an interleaver. These schemes provide full transmit diversity and are suitable for iterative decoding. The rate of these schemes is less than 1 bit/s/Hz, but can be made arbitrary close to 1 bit/s/Hz by the use of Wyner-Ash codes as outer components. Comparison of these schemes with structures from literature shows that performance gains can be obtained at the expense of a small decrease in rate. Computer simulation results over block-fading Rayleigh channels show that the frame-error rate of several of these schemes is within 2-3 dB from the theoretical outage probability. 相似文献
We describe a CMOS multichannel transceiver that transmits and receives 10 Gb/s per channel over balanced copper media. The transceiver consists of two identical 10-Gb/s modules. Each module operates off a single 1.2-V supply and has a single 5-GHz phase-locked loop to supply a reference clock to two transmitter (Tx) channels and two receiver (Rx) channels. To track the input-signal phase, the Rx channel has a clock recovery unit (CRU), which uses a phase-interpolator-based timing generator and digital loop filter. The CRU can adjust the recovered clock phase with a resolution of 1.56 ps. Two sets of two-channel transceiver units were fabricated in 0.11-/spl mu/m CMOS on a single test chip. The transceiver unit size was 1.6 mm /spl times/ 2.6 mm. The Rx sensitivity was 120-mVp-p differential with a 70-ps phase margin for a common-mode voltage ranging from 0.6 to 1.0 V. The evaluated jitter tolerance curve met the OC-192 specification. 相似文献
Various fit indices exist in structural equation models. Most of these indices are related to the noncentrality parameter (NCP) of the chi-square distribution that the involved test statistic is implicitly assumed to follow. Existing literature suggests that few statistics can be well approximated by chi-square distributions. The meaning of the NCP is not clear when the behavior of the statistic cannot be described by a chi-square distribution. In this paper we define a new measure of model misfit (MMM) as the difference between the expected values of a statistic under the alternative and null hypotheses. This definition does not need to assume that the population covariance matrix is in the vicinity of the proposed model, nor does it need for the test statistic to follow any distribution of a known form. The MMM does not necessarily equal the discrepancy between the model and the population covariance matrix as has been assumed in existing literature. Bootstrap approaches to estimating the MMM and a related quantity are developed. An algorithm for obtaining bootstrap confidence intervals of the MMM is constructed. Examples with practical data sets contrast several measures of model misfit. The quantile-quantile plot is used to illustrate the unrealistic nature of chi-square distribution assumptions under either the null or an alternative hypothesis in practice.
The fabrication and performance of an InGaN light-emitting diode (LED) array based on a microring device geometry is reported. This design has been adopted in order to increase the surface area for light extraction and to minimize losses due to internal reflections and reabsorption. Electrical characteristics of these devices are similar to those of a conventional large-area LED, while the directed light extraction proves to be superior. In fact, these devices are found to be more efficient when operated at higher currents. This may be attributed to improved heat sinking due to the large surface area to volume ratio. The potential applications of these devices are also discussed. 相似文献
Five studies examined whether spontaneous trait inferences uniquely reference the person who performed a trait-implying behavior. On each study trial in 5 studies, participants saw 2 faces and a behavioral sentence referring to one of them. Later, participants saw face-trait pairs and indicated whether they had seen the trait word in the sentence presented with the face. Participants falsely recognized implied traits more when these traits were paired with actors' faces than with control faces. This effect was replicated for a large set effaces (120), after a week delay between study and recognition test, when equal attention was paid to each face, and when the orientation of the face at recognition was different from the orientation at encoding.

Relations for determining a motive force in a complex model of mass transfer as applied to concurrent, countercurrent, and cross motion of the vapor and liquid phases have been introduced. These forces have been compared for different forms of organization of the flow, and their comparison with similar quantities from the known Murphree and Hausen models is presented. 相似文献
Space-time block codes (STBCs) allow utilising the diversity provided by multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) communication channels, thereby decreasing the outage probability for a given communication rate. The contribution of this letter is the derivation of a closed-form expression of the outage probability of distributed STBCs deployed over Nakagami flat fading channels with different channel gains and fading parameters. 相似文献
