OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to investigate general practitioners' (GPs) attitudes, beliefs and behaviours regarding the use of exercise for patients with chronic knee pain (CKP) attributable to osteoarthritis. SETTING Primary care GPs in the UK. PARTICIPANTS 5000 GPs, randomly selected from Binley's database, were mailed a cross-sectional questionnaire survey. OUTCOME MEASURES GP...

BACKGROUND Australia is considering implementing a chlamydia screening program in general practice. The views of general practitioners (GPs) are necessary to inform the design of the program. This paper aimed to investigate Australian GPs' views on how chlamydia screening could work in the Australian context. METHODS This project used both qualitative interviews and a quantitative questionnai...

accuracy of inertial navigation system (ins) is limited by inertial sensors imperfections. before using inertial sensors signals in the data fusion algorithm, noise removal method should be performed, in which, wavelet decomposition method is used. in this method the raw data is decomposed into high and low frequency data sets. in this study, wavelet multi-level resolution analysis (wmra) techn...

Nowadays GPS is widely used to monitor the ionosphere. However, the current results from ground-based GPS observations only provide some information on the horizontal structure of the ionosphere, and are extremely restricted in mapping its vertical structure. In this paper, tomography reconstruction technique was used to image 3D ionospheric structure with ground-based GPS. The first result of ...

GPS Receivers are used for both military and civilian applications. This paper presents the GPS Receiver for System on Chip (SoC) application. In this paper the GPS Receiver is been implemented as System on Chip in FPGA board. VHDL modeling for the back end of GPS Receiver is designed. As baseband signal processing is the main aspect in the GPS receiver, it is achieved by this software GPS Rece...
