date bunch fading (dbf) is a serious disease of date palm (phoenix dactelifera l.) in iran. fusarium proliferatum was isolated from the xylem of fruit bunch samples sent from kerman and fars provinces groves to the laboratory. koch’s postulates were completed in the greenhouse by crown injection and root inoculations. shriveling of the fruits was induced by peduncle inoculations. symptoms on th...

background: similar to the thermoluminescence (tl) spectra, the optical parameters variations can also be used in tl crystals for dosimetry purposes. these optical parameters can include absorption, transmission and reflection coefficients. materials and methods: single crystals of kbr and kcl which have been used in this research were grown from laboratory grade extra pure precursor powders. c...

Diversity combining techniques play an important role in combating the destructive effects of channel fading in wireless communication systems. In this work we present a blind diversity combining technique for Rayleigh flat fading channels based on Hammerstein type filters. We show that the performance of this technique is very close to ideal MRC system which is accepted as an optimum receiver ...

The use of commercial window glass as possible high dose routine dosimeter has been investigated. Glass samples have been irradiated with doses in the range of 1–50 kGy using 60Co γ source, 4 MeV and 12 MeV electron accelerators. The samples were given a post irradiation thermal treatment (150 oC for 20 min) in order to improve the post irradiation stability of the measured specific optical abs...

Windowing system offer many benefits to users, such as being able to work on multiple tasks concurrently; or working with a number of windows, each connected to different remote machines or applications. Unless these windows are managed efficiently, users can easily become overwhelmed by the number of windows currently open and begin to lose their way round the desktop. This can lead to a state...

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is technique of multi-carrier modulation in which a single high rate data-stream is first divided into multiple low rate data-streams and is then modulated using sub-carriers. These sub-carriers are orthogonal to each other. Its main advantages are multipath delay spread tolerance, high spectral efficiency, immunity to Frequency Selective Fading...

We study data communications for the downlink in code-division-multiple-access (CDMA) networks. The focus of this paper is to exploit the predictive temporal structure of the multi-access interference (MAI) for adaptive resource allocation, particularly for rate control and admission control. We also investigate the impact of fading and traffic burstiness on the system performance. We first pre...

Abstract A high-concentration aqueous electrolyte with a wide electrochemical stability window represents novel development direction for traditional batteries. Herein, water-in-bisalt using LiFSI (lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide) and LiTFSI bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide) as supporting salts was first applied an of dual-ion battery, the solvated structure changes were studied in detail. E...
