Consider the downlink of an isolated cell with a base station (BS) equipped with M multiple antennas and a single user with a single antenna. For this multiple-input single-output (MISO) channel, the capacity with perfect channel state information (CSI) the transmitter and receiver is known. In practice, however, it is actually more realistic to assume imperfect CSI at the transmitter. For inst...

BACKGROUND Variables derived from electroencephalogram like cerebral state index (CSI) have been used to monitor the anesthesia depth during general anesthesia. Observed evidences show such variables have also been used as a detector of brain death or outcome predictor in traumatic brain-injured (TBI) patients. OBJECTIVES The current study was designed to determine the correlation between Gla...

craniospinal irradiation plus posterior fossa boost (cs1) is the standard modality of post-operative treatment of patient with medulloblastoma, but considering the technical difficulties and limited facilities, often whole- brain irradiation plus posterior fossa boost (wbi) had been used in our institution until 1991. tust a retrospective study was undertaken to compare the patients treated by ...

OBJECTIVE To present normative and psychometric data on somatic symptoms using the Children's Somatization Inventory (CSI) in a nonclinical sample of British young people, and to assess associations with stress and functional impairment. METHODS A total of 1,173 students (11- to 16-years old) completed the CSI and self-report psychopathology measures. RESULTS The median CSI total score was ...

Adaptive resource allocation based on perfect Channel State Information (CSI) can significantly improve the performance of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) systems. However, in real systems, accurate CSI is impossible because of noisy channel estimates, channel feedback delays, and processing delays. Therefore, only imperfect CSI can be used for resource allocation purposes...

In wireless healthcare monitoring systems, bandwidth allocation is an efficient solution to the problem of scarce wireless bandwidth for the monitoring of patients. However, when the central unit cannot access the exact channel state information (CSI), the efficiency of bandwidth allocation decreases, and the system performance also decreases. In this paper, we propose an algorithm to reduce th...

We consider the problem of reliable communication over multiple-access channels (MAC) where the channel is driven by an independent and identically distributed state process and the encoders and the decoder are provided with various degrees of asymmetric noisy channel state information (CSI). For the case where the encoders observe causal, asymmetric noisy CSI and the decoder observes complete ...

Channel state information (CSI) feedback is a challenging issue in frequency division multiplexing (FDD) massive MIMO systems. This paper studies a cooperative feedback scheme, where the users first exchange their CSI with each other by exploiting device-to-device (D2D) communications, then compute the precoder by themselves, and feed back the precoder to the base station (BS). Analytical resul...

Abstract—Adaptive modulation has been shown to have significant benefits for high-speed wireless data transmission when orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is employed. However, accurate channel state information (CSI) is required at the transmitter to achieve the benefits. Imperfect CSI arises from noisy channel estimates, which may also be outdated due to a delay in getting the ...

In wireless communications, the assumption that the transmitter has perfect channel state information (CSI) is often unreasonable, due to feedback delays, estimation errors, and quantization errors. In order to accurately assess system performance, a more careful analysis with imperfect CSI is needed. In this paper, the impact of partial CSI due to feedback delays in a multiuser Orthogonal Freq...
