A Digital Voice Systems AMBE-2020 voice coder (vocoder) has been implemented as a functional replacement for the obsolete AMBE-1000. The effort, in part, was a capstone senior design project in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Temple University, which fosters advanced technical topics in undergraduate education using amateur radio. The implementation is open-source and complies with the d...

Abstract: This Research presents the image enhancing using a mean-separate histogram equalization method. It can preserve the original brightness to a certain extends. To provide maximum brightness preservation, . it separates the input image’s histogram into 2 based on input mean before equalizing them independently. The image initially is separated from 2 ,4 and 8 class by calculated threshol...

Speech intelligibility of two types of vocoders was measured using the modified rhyme test. One type of vocoder, a continuous variable slope delta (CVSD), was a waveform encoder. The other type, an advanced multi-band excitation (AMBE), was a parametric encoder. In the first experiment, clear speech was processed through the vocoders. Intelligibility was measured in a control condition, i.e. wi...

The Pseudomonas aeruginosa toxin L-2-amino-4-methoxy-trans-3-butenoic acid (AMB) is a non-proteinogenic amino acid which is toxic for prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Production of AMB requires a five-gene cluster encoding a putative LysE-type transporter (AmbA), two non-ribosomal peptide synthetases (AmbB and AmbE), and two iron(II)/α-ketoglutarate-dependent oxygenases (AmbC and AmbD). Bioinformati...

Our preliminary research focuses on the development of an Ambient Mobile Browsing Experience (AMBE) system. AMBE is a communication and synchronisation framework that will provide integrated connectivity across heterogeneous geographically distributed devices. The intention is to provide persistent location-independent and appliance-sensitive viewing for the user, thus enabling Internet mobilit...

Although recent studies have reported hypocretin 1 (hcrt-1)-like-immunoreactivity (ir) within the region of the nucleus ambiguus (Amb) in the caudal brain stem, the function of hcrt-1 in the Amb on cardiovascular function is not known. Three series of experiments were done in male Wistar rats to investigate the effects of microinjections of hcrt-1 into Amb on heart rate (HR), mean arterial pres...

امروزه در مبحث محاسبات رآکتورهای هسته‌ای مثل فرسایش و مدیریت سوخت، تحلیل گذرا بازسازی توان میله‌های به دنبال روش‌هایی جهت استفاده کدهای هستند که علاوه بر دقت قابل‌قبول از هزینه زمان بهینه‌ای برخوردار باشند. این پژوهش با گسسته‌سازی معادله پخش نوترون روش نودال بسط شار جریان ‌متوسط مرتبه بالا نشان داده می‌شود روش‌ بهینه قابل‌قبولی بهره می‌برد. مستقیم الحاقی نوترون، برای هندسه مربعی دوبعدی دو گروه ...

یکی از پارامترهای مهم محیط­های پخش نوترون، طول نوترون حرارتی است. روش مرسوم محاسباتی استفاده کد MCNP برمبنای توزیع شار در محیط و برازش تابع ریاضی مربوطه بر آن این پژوهش، روشی نوین که مبنای کارت PTRAC است، ارایه شده پارامتر برای آب­سبک اساس روش­های فوق محاسبه با مقادیر گزارش مراجع مقایسه گردیده تطابق خوبی نیز مشاهده حسن فوق، عدم نیاز به علاوه فرض می­شود تا محل چشمه، فاصله­ی کافی وجود دارد. مسأله...

This paper describes a preliminary study of the thermoluminescence (TL) response of doped SiO(2) optical fibres subjected to (241)AmBe neutron irradiation. The TL materials, which comprise Al- and Ge-doped silica fibres, were exposed in close contact with the (241)AmBe source to obtain fast neutron interactions through use of measurements obtained with and without a Cd filter (the filter being ...
