In this paper, we show that a matrix A in Mn(C) that has n coneigenvectors, where coneigenvaluesassociated with them are distinct, is condiagonalizable. And also show that if allconeigenvalues of conjugate-normal matrix A be real, then it is symmetric.  

In this paper, joint transmit/receive frequency-domain equalization (FDE) is proposed for analog network coded (ANC) singlecarrier (SC) bi-directional multi-antenna relay. In the proposed scheme, diversity transmission using transmit FDE is performed at relay station (RS) equipped with multiple antennas while receive FDE is carried out at base station (BS) and mobile terminal (MT) both equipped...

Project GRAND is an extensive air shower array of proportional wire chambers. It has 64 stations in a 100 m x 100 m area; each station has eight planes of proportional wire chambers with a 50 mm steel absorber plate above the bottom two planes. This arrangement of planes, each 1.25 square meters of area, allow an angular measurement for each track to 0.25 in each of two projections. The steel a...

In recent years space geodetic techniques such as the Global Positioning System (GPS), Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI), and Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) have been collocated to address many applications in geoscience. While results from all these techniques are contaminated by various biases and errors, a commonmode signal has been found among the collocated results of GPS, VLBI and S...

This study proposes a novel precoding scheme for multiuser multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) relay systems in the presence of imperfect channel state information (CSI). The base station (BS) and the MIMO relay station (RS) are both equipped with the same codebook of unitary matrices. According to each element of the codebook, we create a latent precoding matrix pair, namely a BS precoding m...

Evidence suggests that exposure to advertising of unhealthy foods may contribute to increased rates of obesity in children. This study examined the extent to which television stations marketed unhealthy foods to children during after-school programming aired over one week in La Ceiba, Honduras. Content analysis was performed on four television stations, including one broadcast station and three...

This study provides an adaptive data analysis method that assesses Alberta’s acid deposition monitoring network of 9 stations and the relative importance of each station. The method is based on the assessment of the mean square error (MSE) of sampling expressed in terms of empirical orthogonal functions (EOF). The annual potential acid input (PAI) data of the 9 stations over Alberta, Canada are...

This paper proposes a novel methodology for very short term forecasting of hourly global solar irradiance (GSI). The proposed methodology is based on meteorology data, especially for optimizing the operation of power generating electricity from photovoltaic (PV) energy. This methodology is a combination of k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) algorithm modelling and artificial neural network (ANN) model. ...

WSNs is a collection of wireless nodes with limited energy capabilities that may be mobile or stationary and are located randomly on a dynamically changing environment. The routing strategies selection is an important issue for the efficient delivery of the packets to their destination. Moreover, in such networks, the applied routing strategy should ensure the minimum of the energy consumption ...

The main issue in WSN is energy limited characteristic of the sensor node. So the problem is to have the routing protocol in such the manner that it should be energy efficient in order to increase the life time of the whole WSN. Hierarchical routing architecture divides the whole network in to a group of cluster and only cluster head is responsible to forwarding the data to base station directl...
