With a growing number of consumers utilizing the Internet, companies have foreseen a consumer demand for high-speed wireless access. Since current mobile cellular systems can transfer at most 115.2 kbps per user, a third generation of mobile cellular service has been under development by various organizations since 1997. This new generation of technology will support data rates up to 2 Mbps for...

In this paper, a novel two-dimensional super-resolution angle-of-departure (AoD) and angle-ofarrival (AoA) estimation technique is proposed for wideband millimeter-wave multiple-input multipleoutput systems with cross-polarized antenna elements. The key ingredient of the proposed method is to form custom designed beam pairs, and devise an invertible function of the AoD/AoA to be estimated from ...

results sixty patients were involved in this study. in asv mode, values including peak airway pressure (p-peak), end-tidal carbon dioxide (etco2), tidal volume and respiratory dead space were significantly lower than simv mode. although the mean value for dynamic compliance had no significant difference in the two types of ventilation, it was better in asv mode. methods in a crossover study, pa...

We propose a comprehensive scheme for realizing massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system with dual-polarized antennas in frequency division duplexing (FDD) mode. Dual-polarized arrays are commonly employed due to the favorable property that, principle, they can double number of channel spatial degrees freedom less-than-proportional increase array size. However, processing MIMO is de...

objective(s): a novel iq-specttm method has become widely used in clinical studies. the present study compares the quality of myocardial perfusion images (mpi) acquired using the iq-specttm (iq-mode),conventional (180° apart: c-mode) and l-mode (90° apart: l-mode) systems. we assessed spatial resolution, image reproducibility and quantifiability using various physical phantoms. materials and me...

Massive Multiple Input Output (MIMO) is a promising technology for meeting the demand of high data capacity mobile networks in future. Obtaining channel state information (CSI) MIMO systems provides energy and spectrum efficiency. Hence, accuracy CSI very important. Time Division Duplexing (TDD) good alternative method to obtain systems. Pilot sequences are used CSI. In practice, it not possibl...

in this paper, an optimal adaptive fuzzy integral sliding mode control is presented to control the robot manipulator position tracking in the presence of uncertainties and permanent magnet dc motor. in the proposed control, sliding surface of the sliding mode control is defined according to the information of position tracking error, derivatives, and error integral. in order to estimate bounds ...
