Due to the approved content nature, mostly collected of images and/or video streams with high throughput and delay restrictions, Quality of Service in the framework of WSN is a critical issue. In this paper, we propose a QoS and energy aware geographic routing protocol for WSN. To advance the efficiency of QoS routing in WSNs, we sketch the problem of efficient GOR for multiconstrained QoS prov...

The problem of small bit error rate is actual in fiber Raman amplifiers. Our experimental data on the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) with backward pumping as a base of optical noise evaluation are presented in this paper. Raman gain spectrum for useful Stokes low-powered signal is calculated and compared with obtained spectrum of non-coherent ASE noise. It is shown that output optical sig...

Gain and timing mismatches in a time-interleaved analog-todigital converter (TI-ADC) cause spurious images in its output spectrum thus effecting its performance. In this paper. we present an efficient digital blind identification structure to adaptively estimate gain and timing mismatches by using the filtered-error least-mean square (FxLMS) algorithm. The identification of mismatches helps in ...

We propose and experimentally demonstrate a continuous wave (CW) tunable-wavelength fiber laser using self-seeding Fabry-Perot laser diode (FP-LD) without optical amplifier inside gain cavity. By employing a tunable bandpass filter (TBF) and a fiber reflected mirror (FRM) within a gain cavity, the fiber laser can lase a single-longitudinal wavelength due to the self-seeding operation. The propo...

An indicator of bypassing is a premature drop in gas-oil ratio; i.e., earlier than expected collapse of gas saturation. Early gas collapse (water fillup) may indicate that channeling has occurred. In layered reservoirs with no or little vertical crossflow, water injection in an initially depressurized layer will cause GOR to drop rapidly. Often naturally fractured reservoirs exhibit fast gas co...

Gastro-oesophageal reflux (GOR) is the regurgitation of gastric contents into the oesophagus. It is alleged to be the cause of many clinical problems in premature infants, such as failure to thrive, apnoea, desaturation, bradycardia, and stridor. 2 Twenty four hour oesophageal pH monitoring is currently regarded as the optimal method of diagnosing occult GOR in infants with respiratory events. ...

This paper presents nonlinear small gain theorems for both continuous time systems and discrete time systems in a general setting of input-to-output stability. Most small gain theorems in the past literature were stated for interconnected systems of which the subsystems are either input-to-state stable, or are input-to-output stable and satisfy an additional condition of input/output-to-state s...
