The continuous increase in mobile data traffic creates the need for radical innovations in the mobile broadband system design. Heterogeneous networks (HetNets) deployment paradigm is an emerging research trend considered as the most significant aspect for meeting the mobile data challenge, mainly by proposing spectral efficiency enhancements and cell capacity gains from an overall system perspe...

A femto base station (BS) is an emerging candidate solution to guarantee wireless coverage and enhance capacity in indoor environments. Ideally, femto BSs should be designed to be installed by customers without their manual configuration. Therefore, a femtocell network should be automatically organized by configuring the operating frequency channel and transmit power level of the femto BSs adap...

PURPOSE To report a case of rainbow glare following femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK (femto-LASIK) with the Wavelight FS-200 femtosecond laser (Alcon Laboratories, Inc., Fort Worth, TX). METHODS A patient was treated bilaterally for myopia with femto-LASIK using the FS-200 femtosecond laser. Postoperatively, he complained of rainbow glare in his right eye. RESULTS Three months postoperative...

The femtocell network, which is designed for low power transmission and consists of consumer installed small base stations, coexists with macrocells to exploit spatial reuse gain. For its realization, cross-tier interference mitigation is an important issue. To solve this problem, we propose a joint access and power control scheme that requires limited information exchange between the femto and...

Long Term Evolution (LTE) is defined by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standards as Release 8/9. The LTE supports at max 20 MHz channel bandwidth for a carrier. The number of LTE users and their applications are increasing, which increases the demand on the system BW. A new feature of the LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) which is defined in the 3GPP standards as Release 10/11 is called Car...

One of the 21 century scientific frontiers is to explore the molecule structure transition on the femtosecond time scale. X-ray free electron laser (XFEL) is one of the tools now under development for investigating femto-second structure transition. We are proposing an alternative technique – femto-second electron diffraction based on a photocathode RF gun. We will present a design of a kHz fem...

Purpose. To evaluate and compare corneal backscatter from anterior stroma between small incision lenticule extraction (SMILE) and femtosecond laser-assisted LASIK (femto-LASIK). Methods. A cohort of 60 eyes of 30 patients was randomized to receive SMILE in one eye and femto-LASIK in the fellow eye. In vivo confocal microscopy was performed at 1 week and 1, 3, and 6 months after surgery. The mai...

PURPOSE To compare the incidence of diffuse lamellar keratitis (DLK) after laser in situ keratomileusis (LASIK) with flap creation using the Femto LDV and IntraLase™ FS60 femtosecond lasers.0. METHODS A total of 818 consecutive myopic eyes had LASIK performed using either Femto LDV or IntraLase FS60 for flap creation. The same excimer laser, the Allegretto Wave® Eye-Q Laser, was used for corr...

In future wireless networks, a significant number of users will be vehicular. One promising solution to improve the capacity for these vehicular users is to employ moving relays or car base stations. The system forms cell inside the vehicle and then uses rooftop antenna for backhauling to overcome the vehicular penetration loss. In this paper, we develop a model for aggregate interference distr...

We show how time-resolved coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering can be used to identify interfering pathways in the relaxation dynamics of autoionizing transients in many-electron systems, on femto- and attosecond time scales. For coherent population of many states, autoionizing wave-packet dynamics is resolved. We identify bound-bound, continuum-bound, and bound-continuum-bound contributions a...
