Abstract— The bit error rate (BER) performance of DSCDMA in a frequency-selective fading channel can be significantly improved by the use of frequency-domain equalization (FDE). However, for a small spreading factor SF, the residual inter-chip-inference (ICI) degrades the BER performance. In this paper, we propose an iterative frequency-domain ICI cancellation (FD-ICIC) scheme for DS-CDMA. In t...

There has been growing interest in the task of Named Entity Recognition (NER) and a lot of research has been done in this direction in last two decades. Particularly, a lot of progress has been made in the biomedical domain with emphasis on identifying domain-specific entities and often the task being known as Biological Named Entity Recognition (BER). The task of biological entity recognition ...

The problem of signal design for bandwidth efficient multiple access is addressed under quality of service (QoS) constraints specified by (possibly different) BER. Indeed, BER more accurately measures the performance than the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) for uncoded communication. Furthermore, we argue that the asymptotic effective energy (AEE) faithfully characterizes BER, and we transla...

We examine adaptive modulation schemes for flat-fading channels where the data rate, transmit power, and instantaneous BER are varied to maximize spectral efficiency, subject to an average power and BER constraint. Both continuous-rate and discrete-rate adaptation are considered, as well as average and instantaneous BER constraints. We find the general form of power, BER, and data rate adaptati...

This study studies the Bit-Error-Rate (BER) performance of matched filter and energy detection receivers in Human Body Communication (HBC) channel model. HBC, as defined by the IEEE 802.15 Task Group (TG) 6, is a Body Area Network (BAN) at frequency band 5-50 MHz, where communication is from body surface to body surface. The Bit-Error-Rate (BER) performance is investigated for Energy Detection ...

This letter presents an efficient Signed-Power-of-Two (SPT) term allocation for filter coefficients in order to improve the BER characteristics of digital communication systems. The performance of the present allocation is evaluated by BER characteristics through digital modulation simulations and FPGA-based digital implementation. key words: digital modulation, BER characteristics, cosine roll...

The DNA damage response (DDR) has an essential function in maintaining genomic stability. Ataxia telangiectasia-mutated (ATM)-checkpoint kinase 2 (Chk2) and ATM- and Rad3-related (ATR)-Chk1, triggered, respectively, by DNA double-strand breaks and blocked replication forks, are two major DDRs processing structurally complicated DNA damage. In contrast, damage repaired by base excision repair (B...

Based on imperfect channel information feedback, the performance of space-time coded multi-antenna systems with adaptive modulation and feedback delay is investigated in Rayleigh fading channel, and the corresponding theoretical analysis for spectrum efficiency (SE) and bit error rate (BER) is presented. The fading gain value is partitioned into a number of regions by which the modulation is ad...

Growing evidence suggests that the Rad9-Rad1-Hus1 complex (the 9-1-1 complex), besides its functions in DNA damage sensing and signaling pathways, plays also a direct role in various DNA repair processes. Recent studies have demonstrated that the 9-1-1 complex physically and functionally interacts with several components of the base excision repair (BER) machinery namely DNA polymerase beta (Po...

The sensitivity of channel bit error rate (BER) to the turbo coding parameters (i.e., code rate, iterative number and interleave length, etc) and the wireless channel statistic enlightens us to model a BER for turbo coding over Rayleigh channel. The model presented in this paper synthetically considers and quantificationally analyzes the impacts of all the coding parameters and the wireless cha...
