This manuscript, the first of a two-part series, presents methodology for efficiently implementing an equivalent circuit nonlinear loudspeakers in discrete-time domain. is crucial step that will allow us to design new algorithms loudspeaker virtualization part II this series. The presented implementation, fact, based on Wave Digital Filter (WDF) principles, which lead fully explicit model, sens...

The following receiver measurements and specifications attempt to define overall receiver dynamic range as a single number which can be used both to predict overall receiver performance and as a figure of merit to compare competing receivers. They include: 1-dB compression dynamic range, desensitization dynamic range, spur-free dynamic range, and NPR (noise-power ratio) figure of merit (NPRFOM)...

Mutation testing measures the adequacy of a test suite by seeding artificial defects (mutations) into a program. If a test suite fails to detect a mutation, it may also fail to detect real defects—and hence should be improved. However, there are also mutations that keep the program semantics unchanged and thus cannot be detected by any test suite. Such equivalent mutants must be weeded out manu...

In this paper the dynamic equivalence of planar mechanisms is investigated by decomposition of inertia into point masses. For a planar rigid body, two point masses can fully describe its dynamic behavior. The location of one these points can be chosen freely, fixing the second point. By locating one of the two point masses of a link on a revolute joint, this link can be fully described by the o...

Definition 1.2. For an even integer λ, let Aλ,k,a(n) denote the number of partitions of n into parts such that no part which is not equivalent to 0(mod λ+ 1) may be repeated and no part is equivalent to 0,±(a−λ/2)(λ+1)mod[(2k−λ+1)(λ+1)]. For an odd integer λ, let Aλ,k,a(n) denote the number of partitions of n into parts such that no part which is not equivalent to 0(mod((λ+1)/2)) may be repeate...
