Employing multiple transmit and receive antennas for wireless transmissions opens up the opportunity to meet the demand of high-quality high-rate services envisioned for future wireless systems with minimum possible resources, e.g., spectrum, power and hardware. Empowered by linear precoding and decoding, a spatially multiplexed multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system becomes a convenient ...

Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) systems promise very high performance in terms of spectral efficiency and coverage benefits when perfect Channel State Information (CSI) is available at the transmitter. However, perfect CSI is difficult to obtain in CoMP systems due to an increased number of channel parameters to estimate at the receiver and to be fed back to the transmitter. So, the performance ...

BACKGROUND Lateralization of cerebral blood flow and EEG activity is known to vary during cognition, sleep and waking. In spite of this, electrode placement for the cerebral state index (CSI) monitor is not specified to a particular side of the brain. This study is designed to determine if pairwise registrations differ for CSI measured simultaneously from the left or right sides of the brain. ...

A cold strain index (CSI) based on rectal (T(re)) and mean skin temperatures ((sk)) using data from seminude resting subjects has been proposed (Moran DS, Castellani JW, O'Brien C, Young AJ, and Pandolf KB. Am J Physiol Regulatory Integrative Comp Physiol 277: R556-R564, 1999). The current study determined whether CSI could provide meaningful data for clothed subjects exercising in the cold wit...

sequence with minimized acquisition delays (left). The duration of each gradient is minimized individually. Thus the acquisition delay depends on the k-space position (right). Figure 2: Central slices of a phantom containing 0.9% saline solution measured with the normal 3D-CSI sequence (a), the 3D-TEMin CSI sequence with minimized acquisition delay (b),the 3D-AW-CSI sequence with acquisition we...

Customer satisfaction index (CSI) is an important concept for evaluating the quality of service in e-commerce. It permits to evaluate the validity of an e-commerce operation from the point of view of consumers. In this paper, we present a model of CSI in e-commerce using fuzzy techniques and provide a method for calculating CSI, expressed in a five levels quantity table. © 2007 IMACS. Published...

This paper presents a comprehensive survey of the current source inverter (CSI)-fed induction motor (IM) drives. It also reviews various control methodologies, selective harmonic elimination techniques and methods for reduction in switching losses in CSI fed IM drives. Authors strongly believe that this survey article shall be very much helpful to the researchers working in the field of CSI fed...

Trigeminocardiac reflex (TCR) is defined as sudden onset of parasympathetic dysrhythmia including hypotension, apnea, and gastric hypermotility during stimulation of any branches of the trigeminal nerve. Previous publications imply a relation between TCR and depth of anesthesia. To gain more detailed insights into this hypothesis, we performed a systematic literature review.Literature about occ...

BACKGROUND The cost-benefit relationship for depth of anaesthesia monitors is complicated by the high cost of specially designed EEG electrodes. The cerebral state index (CSI) monitor will accept regular ECG electrodes with snap connectors. The purpose of this study was to determine if generic ECG electrodes could replace the more expensive proprietary EEG electrodes for the CSI monitor. METH...
