A linear minimum mean square error multiuser receiver inRayleigh-fading channels

We generalize the multiuser (CDMA spread spectrum) communication systems to the fading environments. We first extend Verdu's (1986) conventional optimum receiver to Rayleigh-fading environments and then evaluate its performance. Having no knowledge of the received power at the receiving end, we therefore need an estimator to efficiently estimate the received signal strength of each user in fading environments. A linear minimum mean square error (LMMSE) unbiased estimator is proposed to attain this goal. By using the minimum mean square error (MMSE) Bayesian estimation, we further propose the LMMSE bit estimator for efficient demodulation. Its performance is close to the optimum multiuser receiver but with a much simpler polynomial complexity. To further reduce the complexity, we extend the LMMSE estimator to the sequential LMMSE estimator. In sequential estimation, we do not need to implement the matched filter banks and to perform the matrix inversion when estimating. In addition, it converges after approximately 2k iterations, where k is the number of users. With this fast convergence property and the simple structure, the sequential LMMSE estimator provides an attractive alternative to the implementation of a multiuser system     

Microtiter plate binding assay for cholinergic compounds utilizing the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor.

A receptor-based binding assay for the determination of cholinergic compounds of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor has been developed. By conducting the assay in a 96-well microtiter plate, the method is suitable for large-scale screening in drug development. Solid-phase extraction of the enzyme label significantly simplifies the assay protocol compared to earlier methods. The assay is based on immobilization of biotin-BSA on the microtiter which takes up avidin-labeled peroxidase due to avidin-biotin interaction. To perform the assay, a ligand (the analyte) and a biotin alpha-bungarotoxin conjugate (alpha Bgt-biotin) sequentially bind to a vesicle bound nicotinic acetylcholine receptor. This is done either in a test tube, assay I, or in a biotinylated microtiter well, assay II. Avidin-HRP is then added to this mixture; free alpha Bgt-biotin conjugate and immobilized biotin-BSA compete for the avidin sites. After the assay solution has been aspirated off, bound enzyme activity is determined which is directly related to the amount of alpha Bgt-biotin added. Dose-response curves of cholinergic compounds and Scatchard plots were generated to evaluate the apparent binding constants. Kinetic studies were conducted for the purpose of optimization. The final assay can be performed in under 4 h with a minimum of sample handling.

Efficient dynamic synchronous machine simulation with harmonics

Within this paper, an efficient procedure for the dynamic simulation of faulted synchronous machines operating in the presence of harmonics is presented. The algorithm employs steady-state frequency domain techniques for simulation of the transmission system sequence networks and time domain methods for synchronous machines represented in the odq frame of reference. The procedure affords greater accuracy than conventional fault analysis techniques based strictly on steady-state methods, yet requires far less computational time than full system dynamic simulations such as those using the EMTP     

The relationship between denitrifying bacteria and methanogenic bacteria in a mixed culture system of acclimated sludges

The interaction between denitrification and methanogenesis, with methanol functioning as an electron donor, has been examined through usage of a mixed culture system of denitrifying sludge and methanogenic sludge in an anaerobic bioreactor. Competition for methanol between these two kinds of biocommunity could not be observed, whereas methanogenesis was suppressed as long as nitrate and nitrite were made available in the mixed system. The inhibition of methanogenesis in the methanogenic sludge caused by nitrogen oxides was studied. The redox potential (E_h) of the culture was monitored and/or controlled for the sake of characterizing the behavior of the biocommunities. An addition of nitrite elevated the E_h of the culture less than nitrate did. Nitrite addition, however, exerted a stronger inhibitory effect on methanogenesis as compared to nitrate at the same concentration. The influence of redox potential on the methanation of methanol was examined by using a methanogenic sludge in the E_h-stat batch culture. The hypothesis that the inhibitory effect being expressed by the nitrogen oxides is not simply attributed to an elevation of the redox potential of the culture is supported by the experimental results. The toxic effect of the nitrogen oxides themselves could also have possibly contributed significantly.     

Numerical electromagnetic simulator termination de-embeddingtechnique

The authors report a novel approach whereby transmission-line end effects can be assessed by numerical simulation without recourse to the evaluation of the propagation properties of the line interconnecting the termination and excitation signal launch planes. As an example of the new technique, a microstrip open-ended line termination simulated by the finite-difference time-domain method is reported. The simulated results are compared with those obtained for the same structure but by a conventional numerical de-embedding scheme. The method presented is completely general and can be applied to any numerical electromagnetic field simulation method solving one-port or multiport networks
