By the notion "bound focus", we mean phonological prominence and semantic affectedness that is dependent on the presence of a focus-demanding lexical element such as only or even. This paper tries to demonstrate that modem conceptions of syntactic theory such as the Minimalist Program explain in a natural way the various word orders that can be observed. Crucial use is made of the idea that foc...

This paper deals with power line communication in vehicle (PLC). PLC is a very promising communication solution in order to offer future in-vehicle applications without increasing wiring harnesses. We join recent additional measurements which have been carried out using modified indoor PLC modems. These PLC modems are based on the two main technologies, HomePLUG AV and HDPLC. Index Terms HomePL...

Professor Cohn draws the important comparison between the witch-hunts and similar modem events, the common denominator being an attempt to eradicate from society a group of evil and corrupt individuals. It is clear from his book that many aspects of witchcraft will have to be reassessed, and in addition the several fertile ideas he puts forward demand further study. His postscript is devoted to...

Synchronisation algorithms for carrier phase recovery and symbol timing in a medium-rate QAM modem are presented. Decision directed (DD) methods that use 1 sample per symbol period are presented. New results are presented to show the eeect of decision errors in the phase detector. The performance of phase and timing estimators is shown when both phase and time oosets are present, and loop conve...

New lubricants have been developed to meet the performance demands of modem refrigerants and system components. A brief review of current refrigeration oil developments is presented. It is well known that the new lubricants used with polar refrigerants tend to absorb water. The ester hydrolysis process and the effect on the essential lubricant properties are described. The effect of increased w...

A method for regenerating a pseudo-noise (PN) ranging signal at a spacecraft is presented. This method allows for an increase of up to 30 dB in received downlink ranging power. The increased power can be used to decrease the measurement uncertainty, reduce the time of the measurement, or increase the power allocated to the downlink telemetry. This system is being implemented in the Spacecraft T...

DFT and QTAIM computations have been performed on numbers of pure nitrogen cluster speciesi.e. Nn (n = 4, 6) for investigating the structure and bonding. This study is critical since thesemolecules have been nominated as the good synthetic targets of High Energy Materials (HEM).0nthe other hand the decomposition mechanism is closely depends on the bonding pattern. Thislatter concept was searche...

This document defines a basic set of managed objects for SNMP-based management of extended QoS features of Cable Modems (CMs) and Cable Modem Termination Systems (CMTSs) conforming to the Data over Cable System (DOCSIS) specifications versions 1.1 and 2.0.

Passive acoustic monitoring has become a common tool for monitoring tagged marine animals. Recent improvements in acoustic technology have addressed some of the limitations of the system; specifically, the need to manually download data and the time delay between detection and data analysis. Coupling a robust passive acoustic receiver with a satellite communications modem has allowed for remote...
