We present algorithms that solve the following problem: given three ranges of floating-point numbers Rx, Ry , Rz , a floating-point operation (op), and a rounding-mode (round), generate three floating-point numbers x̄, ȳ, z̄ such that x̄ ∈ Rx, ȳ ∈ Ry , z̄ ∈ Rz , and z̄ = round(x̄ op ȳ). This problem, although quite simple when dealing with intervals of real numbers, is much more complex when consider...

Short-reach fiber optical links employing intensity modulation (IM) at the transmitter (Tx) and direct detection (DD) receiver (Rx), suffer from linear nonlinear sources of impairments due to interaction chromatic dispersion (CD) with DD. In this article, joint electronic compensation (EDC) Tx, using two distinct Gerchberg–Saxton(GS) based approaches, Rx, a functional link neural network (FLNN)...

This paper provides a quantitative comparison and explores the design space of lead zirconium titanate PZT –only and PZT-on-silicon length-extensional mode resonators for incorporation into radio frequency microelectromechanical system filters and oscillators. We experimentally measured the correlation of motional impedance RX and quality factor Q with the resonators’ silicon layer thickness tS...

This work proposes a novel pre-distortion technique for the quantization noise cancellation of fractional-N frequency synthesizers. The proposed technique utilizes the coordinate rotation digital computer (CORDIC) algorithm to pre-distort the baseband signal of a wireless system with the quantization noise. The pre-distorted signal then modulates the noisy output signal of the fractional-N freq...

Based on the current-mode switching cell (CMSC), an inductive power transfer (IPT) system with dual-output is proposed in this letter. In IPT system, two CMSCs are inversely connected series at Rx side. Two operate positive half-cycle and negative of coil current, respectively. The dual output voltages can be regulated independently. circuit structure CMSC quite simple helps to make side more c...

The potato (Solanum tuberosum) nucleotide binding-leucine-rich repeat immune receptor Rx confers resistance to Potato virus X (PVX) and requires Ran GTPase-activating protein 2 (RanGAP2) for effective immune signaling. Although Rx does not contain a discernible nuclear localization signal, the protein localizes to both the cytoplasm and nucleus in Nicotiana benthamiana. Transient coexpression o...

The RX anomaly detector is well known for its unsupervised ability to detect anomalies in hyperspectral images (HSI). However, the RX method assumes the data is uncorrelated and homogeneous, both of which are not inherent in HSI data. To defeat the correlation and homogeneity, a new method dubbed Iterative Linear RX is proposed. Rather than the test pixel being inside a window used by RX, Itera...

This study compared the metabolic, cardiopulmonary and inflammatory responses of novel acute machine based concentrically-focused resistance exercise (CON RX) and eccentrically-focused resistance exercise (ECC RX). Twenty healthy adults (26.8 ± 5.9 yrs; 25.4 ± 4.0 kg/m2) performed two work-matched RX exercise sessions. Cardiopulmonary responses, rating of perceived exertion (RPE), soreness, oxy...

This paper proposes a new model called spatial continuum asymmetric channels to study the channel capacity region of asymmetric scenarios in which either one source transmits to a spatial density of receivers or a density of transmitters transmit to a unique receiver. This approach is built upon the classical broadcast channel (BC) and multiple access channel (MAC). For the sake of consistency,...

Essentially, this type of electrical stimulation employs what is referred to as a medium frequency alternating current (in the low kHz range thousands of cycles a second), which is delivered in a pulsed (or burst or interrupted) output. The pulsing or bursting is at a 'low' frequency, and as a result, nerves will respond. It is primarily employed as a means to generating a motor response, thoug...
