Scheme 2: Σ(M) = (σ(1 ◦m1), σ(2 ◦m2), . . . , σ(n ◦mn)), where each index i is represented using dlog2(n+ 1)e bits. 3. Choose the smallest n such that d2 log2(n+ 1) + |M | n e ≤ k. (Assume that |M | is small enough and k is large enough to make this is possible.) Then break M up into M = m1 ◦ . . . ◦mn, where each mi is such that |mi| = k − d2log2(n+ 1)e, and mn is padded with 0s as necessary. ...

In this paper, the fast Fourier transform (FFT) to perform spatial convolutions of the time domain discrete Green’s functions (DGF) method related to the analysis of the antenna with more than one dimension has been proposed. For this aim, the discrete Green’s functions and the currents on the antenna have been appropriately defined periodic so as to use the zero padded fast Fourier transform. ...

The method of shifted partial derivatives introduced in [9, 7] was used to prove a super-polynomial lower bound on the size of depth four circuits needed to compute the permanent. We show that this method alone cannot prove that the padded permanent l perm m cannot be realized inside the GLn2 -orbit closure of the determinant detn when n > 2m 2 + 2m. Our proof relies on several simple degenerat...

A dorsal penile nerve block (DPNB), ring block (RB), and eutectic mixture of local anesthetics (EMLA) all control pain effectively during neonatal circumcision (strength of recommendation [SOR]: A, systematic review). An RB may provide superior pain relief to DPNB and EMLA (SOR: B, limited-quality evidence). Using a Mogen clamp reduces pain by shortening procedure time (SOR: A, randomized contr...

Peduncle saddle pack tag A padded harness will fit around the tail stock of the whale at the narrowest portion of the peduncle just before the fluke insertion point. To deploy the belt, a cantilevered pole mounted on the bow of a small inflatable will drop a spring loaded armature on the caudal terminus of the whale (Figure 1). Once triggered, the armature’s sickle shaped arms will close, latch...

A novel iterative channel estimation algorithm for orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems in fast time-varying environment is proposed. Instead of directly estimate the original channel taps, the proposed estimation focus on the rest channel part from the original channel taps subtracted by the prior estimation results in the absence of any channel information. The initial re...

This contribution1 details a new OFDM modulator based on the use of a Pseudo Random Postfix (PRP-OFDM) and low complexity equalization architectures. The main advantage of this new modulation scheme is the ability to estimate and track the channel variations blindly using order one statistics of the received signal. This scheme is thus very well suited in presence of large Doppler spreads where...

We introduce a class of $\gamma$-negatively dependent random samples. prove that this includes, apart from Monte Carlo samples, in particular Latin hypercube samples and padded by Carlo. For $N$-point sample dimension $d$ we provide probabilistic upper bounds for its star discrepancy with explicitly stated dependence on $N$, $d$, $\gamma$. These generalize the [Heinrich et al., Acta Arith. 96 (...

In this paper, a novel pseudo-random noise complementary pair (PNCP) is proposed and adopted as the guard intervals in the time-domain synchronous OFDM (TDSOFDM) system. The proposed PNCP has nearly ideal aperiodic auto-correlation property and inherits the differential property of the PN sequence. Simulations demonstrate the proposed TDSOFDM system padded with PNCP could achieve better perform...
