In a premier paper on the information-theoretic analysis of a two-user cognitive interference channel (CIC) [1], Devroye et al. presented an achievable rate region for the two-user discrete memoryless CIC. The coding scheme proposed by Devroye et al. is correct but unfortunately some rate-terms in the derived achievable rate region are incorrect (in fact incomplete) because of occurring some mi...

We discuss quantum interference effects in a three-level atom in Λ-configuration, where both transitions from the upper state to the lower states are driven by a single monochromatic laser field. Although the system has two lower states, quantum interference is possible because there are interfering pathways to each of the two lower states. The additional interference terms allow for interestin...

Picture-word interference refers to the fact that if a picture (i.e., line drawing) is presented centrally with a word superimposed, picture-naming latency is longer than if that same picture is presented alone. This phenomenon, like the Stroop phenomenon, seems to be strongly influenced by the nature of the to-be-ignored word. That is, if the word names a member of the picture's semantic categ...

The quasi-orthogonal space time block coding (QO-STBC) over orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is investigated. Traditionally, QO-STBC does not achieve full diversity since the detection matrix of QO-STBC scheme is not a diagonal matrix. In STBC, the decoding matrix is a diagonal matrix which enables linear decoding whereas the decoding matrix in traditional QO-STBC does not enab...

Quadratic time varying-spectral analysis methods’ that achieve a high resolution jointly in time and frequency generally suffer from interference terms that obscure the true location of the auto components in the resulting time-frequency representation. Unfortunately, as of now, there is no general mathematical model available for an exact distinction between cross-terms and auto-terms. Consequ...

We investigate the impact of self-interference on the performance of joint partial RAKE (PRAKE) receiver and adaptive modulation over both independent and identically distributed and independent but non-identically distributed Rayleigh fading channels in the presence of self-interference in terms of the average spectral efficiency as performance measures. Some selected results show the performa...

In many organisms, recombination rates differ between the two sexes. Here we show that in mice, this is because of a shorter genomic interference distance in females than in males, measured in Mb. However, the interference distance is the same in terms of bivalent length. We propose a model in which the interference distance in the two sexes reflects the compaction of chromosomes at the pachyte...

This Recommendation provides methodologies for the interference evaluation from the HAPS-to-ground transmission downlink of the fixed service (FS) using high altitude platform stations to the uplink of the fixed-satellite service using the geostationary satellites within the bands 27.5-28.35 GHz.This Recommendation contains three Annexes that provide methodologies for interference calculation, ...

BACKGROUND Motivational interference is defined as the amount of impairment in a target activity due to the incentives of a non-chosen attractive alternative. The amount to which pupils experience motivational interference while studying or while performing a leisure activity in a school-leisure conflict situation is seen as depending on the values they attach to achievement and well-being. At ...

In this paper the effect of interference of UMTS is analysed on WLAN. The effect is analysed by varying the speed of UMTS nodes. To analyse this effect opnet modeler 14.5 is used. The interference is analysed in terms of Video traffic received, Voice traffic received and Load. Result shows that the better performance has been achieved in the absence of UMTS nodes as compare to their presence in...
