In this paper, we propose a simple technique for the reduction of high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR), based on Clipping and Differential Scaling, in Orthogonal FrequencyDivision Multiplexing (OFDM) systems. In this technique, the amplitude of complex OFDM signal is clippedand then scaled in such a way so that the PAPR is reduced without causingmuch degradation in bit error rate (BER). We h...

Two groups of pattern-recognition algorithms for hybrid optical-digital computer processing are theoretically and experimentally compared. The first group is based on linear mapping, while the second group is based on feature extraction and eigenvector analysis. We study the relations among various linear-mapping-based algorithms by formulating a more general unified pseudoinverse algorithm. We...
