Low molecular weight heparin-modified isoliquiritigenin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticle (LMWH-ISL-SLN) was developed for injective application. The morphological observation, particle diameter and zeta potential of LMWH-ISL-SLN were characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and a Malvern Zetasizer. Its entrapment efficiency (EE) and drug loading (DL) were determined by ultracen...

A modification of the classic Dolph-Chebyshev low sidelobe array pattern design is introduced, which allows the adjustment of the mainlobe’s width relatively freely and independently from the sidelobe level. In order to illustrate the advantages of the tool provided by the new design method, its application to Uniform Linear Arrays (ULA’s) and Uniform Circular Arrays (UCA’s) is discussed. It is...

Sequences having better autocorrelation properties play a crucial role in enhancing the performance of active sensing systems. Hence, sequences with good are very much demand. In this paper, we addressed problem designing unimodular sequence side-lobe levels. We formulated it as constrained optimization comprising Integrated Side-lobe Level (ISL) metric and then proposed an effective algorithm ...

Applying a sparse constraint on the beam pattern has been suggested to suppress the sidelobe of the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer recently. To further improve the performance, we add a mixed norm constraint on the beam pattern. It matches the beam pattern better and encourages dense distribution in mainlobe and sparse distribution in sidelobe. The obtained beamforme...

Results of an exhaustive search for minimum peak sidelobe level binary sequences are presented. Several techniques for efficiency implementation of search algorithm are described. A table of number of non-equivalent optimal binary sequences with minimum peak sidelobe (MPS) level up to length 68 is given. This number can be used in prediction of the longest length for a given sidelobe level of b...

Isoliquiritigenin (ISL), a simple chalcone-type flavonoid, is derived from licorice compounds and is mainly present in foods, beverages, and tobacco. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a critical factor involved in modulating cardiac stress response signaling during ischemia and reperfusion. We hypothesize that ISL as a natural antioxidant may protect heart against ischemic injury via modulating ...

The use of solid-state transmitters is becoming increasingly viable for atmospheric radars and is a key part of the strategy to realize any dense network of low-powered radars. However, solid-state transmitters have low peak powers and this necessitates the use of pulse compression waveforms. In this paper frequency diversity in a wideband waveform design is proposed to mitigate the low sensiti...

Unimodular/Phase-only sequence having impulse like aperiodic auto-correlation function plays a central role in the applications of RADAR, SONAR, Cryptography, and Wireless (CDMA) Communication Systems. In this paper, we propose fast iterative algorithm to design phase-only sequences arbitrary lengths by minimizing Integrated Side-lobe Level (ISL) metric, which is very closely related property s...

We report a cross-modal translation system from Hindi strings to Indian Sign Language (ISL) for possible use in the Indian Railways reservation counters. INGIT adopts a semantically mediated formulaic framework for Hindi-ISL mapping. An in-depth investigation into the structure of ISL forms the groundwork for INGIT. Some representational and mapping issues concerning cross-modal translation are...

The pattern synthesis for large antenna arrays has drawn significant attention because of its wide applications. This paper introduces a hybrid approach for the fast pencil beam pattern synthesis of the large non-uniform linear or planar array, which can significantly reduce the computational cost, the number of antenna in the array, the minimum sidelobe level and the null control. The proposed...
