orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (ofdm) has become a promising method for many wireless communication applications. however, one main drawback of ofdm systems is the high peak-to-average power ratio (papr). selected mapping (slm) is a well-known technique to decrease the problem of high papr in ofdm systems. in this method, transmitter is obliged to send some bits named side informati...

in this review, we discuss the use of a variety of 3-d models (particularly 3-d skin, lung, breast and endothelial) in radiobiological research and highlight the differences in responses compared to 2-d culturing conditions (monolayers). we review the characteristics of existing 3-d models and aim to point out the substantial advantages 3-d cultures provide for modern radiobiology. in particula...

in today’s advanced world resulting from the improvement of technology, societies tend to encounter a large number of problems and accidents. as we know, university’s security personnel are classified as shift workers and are exposed to health disturbing factors. the aim of this study was investigation of shift work disorders among security personnel of the hospitals affiliated to shiraz univer...

In this paper, we present a novel framework for detecting individual trees in densely sampled 3D point cloud data acquired in urban areas. Given a 3D point cloud, the objective is to assign point-wise labels that are both class-aware and instance-aware, a task that is known as instance-level segmentation. To achieve this, our framework addresses two successive steps. The first step of our frame...

Background and Objectives: Shift working has the potential to negatively influence the quality of work life among nurses. The purpose of this study was to investigate the outbreak of shift work-related disorders and the relationship between shift work and job satisfaction in nurses of Ilam University’s subsidiary hospitals, in order to identify potential strategies for decreasing risk of health...
