Four patients had a left-sided focal medial temporal lobe onset. Three patients had a right-sided regional medial temporal lobe onset. One patient had a bilateral regional temporal lobe onset with predominant involvement of the left side. Two patients had a leftsided regional medial temporal lobe onset. Nine out of 10 patients had a >50% reduction of interictal spikes during the initial AH-DBS ...

The design of concentric ring arrays for isoflux radiation is presented in this paper. This design considers the reduction of the side lobe level and isoflux radiation requirements for Medium Earth Orbit (MEO) satellites. The optimization problem considers the spacing among rings and levels of amplitude excitations. The well-known method of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) is utilized for this...

Directive antenna array with reduced side lobe level can be obtained using thinned array. This paper describes the design of planar thinned array using Hadamard matrix-like arrangement. Here ‘on’ and ‘off’ states of the antenna elements are arranged based on Hadamard Matrix and inter-element spacing in x and y-directions are varied and then genetic algorithm is used to optimize lowest side lobe...

A coprime sensor array (CSA) is a non-uniform linear array obtained by interleaving two uniform linear arrays (ULAs) that are undersampled by coprime factors. A CSA provides the resolution of a fully populated ULA of the same aperture using fewer sensors. However, the peak side lobe level in a CSA is higher than the peak side lobe of the equivalent full ULA with the same resolution. Adding more...

In many applications like FIR filters, FFT, signal processing and measurements, we are required (~45 dB) or less side lobes amplitudes. However, the problem is usual window based FIR filter design lies in its side lobes amplitudes that are higher than the requirement of application. We propose a window function, which has better performance like narrower main lobe width, minimum side lobe peak ...

This paper presents a design of M-band near perfect reconstructed (NPR) cosine-modulated filterbank (CMFB). The prototype filter is formulated as an interpolated finite impulse response (IFIR) filter. Suitable stretched factor is used to provide considerable reduction in computation cost as well as minimum value of error parameters. Further minimization in errors has been achieved by applying a...

This paper presents a synthesis of a volumetric ring antenna array for a terrestrial coverage pattern. This synthesis regards the spacing among the rings on the planes X-Y, the positions of the rings on the plane X-Z, and uniform and concentric excitations. The optimization is carried out by implementing the particle swarm optimization. The synthesis is compared with previous designs by resulti...

Design of thinned elliptical antenna arrays of uniformly excited isotropic antennas using particle swarm optimization (PSO), is reported. Thinned arrays can generate directive beam with minimum side lobe level (SLL) without degrading the performance of fully populated antenna arrays significantly. Thinning of elliptical antenna arrays using PSO are optimized with different values of eccentricit...

The design of printed antenna arrays with high side lobe suppression has been analysed in this article. The parallel, perpendicular and corner reflectors have been investigated. The arrays are with symmetrical pentagonal dipoles as radiating elements operating at a second resonance. The symmetrical tapered feed network, which consists of impedance transformers, with Dolph-Chebyshev distribution...
