A robust source tracking algorithm for partially adaptive arrays

A new algorithm for overcoming the problem of incidental cancellation and improving the convergence behaviour of large partially adaptive arrays is proposed and investigated. The algorithm uses an auxiliary adaptive source tracker to separate individual sources in the environment before using the resulting outputs to cancel unwanted jamming picked up through the main beam of the system. Because the source tracker's outputs are roughly orthogonal in the steady state and the positions of sources of significant powers are available, the algorithm possesses fast convergence behaviour and solves the problem of incidental cancellation in the most natural manner by adding back the desired signal to the canceller output if the former is cancelled during the adaptation process. In addition, the algorithm has about the same computational complexity as partially adaptive generalized sidelobe cancellers using steepest descent based algorithms.

Model for photo-induced long-term drain current transients in GaAs MESFETs

A simple model is presented for the negative drain current transients observed in GaAs MESFETs when subjected to ionizing radiation. The two dominant mechanisms are proposed to be electron trapping under the Schottky gate and in the neutral semi-insulating substrate. The model is suitable for the design and evaluation of radiation-resistant GaAs MESFET integrated circuits using common electrical simulators such as SPICE3.     

Storage of Spinach Under Low Oxygen Atmosphere Above the Extinction Point

The extinction point of spinach was <0.4% but above 0.2% O₂ at 0° and 5°C. Respiration rates were ～2.3 times greater at 5°C than at 0°C and were similar among cultivars. In 0.8% O₂ atmosphere, O₂ uptake of three cultivars was reduced by an average of 53% and CO₂ production was reduced by 35% relative to those stored in air. Deterioration of leaves was reduced by 30 to 54%, while weight loss, color and chlorophyll content were not affected by the 0.8% O₂ atmosphere. Thus O₂ could be allowed to be depleted to 0.8% in modified atmosphere packaging without quality loss due to anoxia.

Exhaust Cleaning with Dielectric Barrier Discharge

To clean the exhaust emissions as one of the most important tasks in pollution control, a study on the treatment of engine emissions with discharge assistance was reported. A DBD plasma source shaped in grid and cylinder was examined in different engine operational modes to reduce the NOX content of diesel engine exhaust. The composition of the exhaust gases and chemical reactions initiated by the discharge were analyzed. The discharge frequency had a crucial impact on the device’s performance and gas treatment. The voltages applied to the discharge gap could alter the chemical reactions occurring in the treated gases, which were indicated by the NO to NO2 ratio. The operation of the system was studied at frequencies ranging from 400 Hz to 16 kHz.     

Mutation analysis for prenatal diagnosis of hereditary tyrosinaemia type 1

Presentation of 11 cases of retroperitoneal sarcoma. Mean time from the beginning of symptoms to diagnosis is 6 months. The primary complementary study is CT. Surgery was performed in all cases, using complete resection in 6 cases, and partial resection in 5. Ten patients relapsed. 9 of which were treated with surgical rescue, in one or more occasions; chemotherapy was added in 6 cases and radiotherapy in 7. Survival at five years is 68%, with a mean follow-up of 66 months.
