Backward compatibility is an essential ingredient for the success of new technologies. In the context of in-band full-duplex (FD) communication, FD base stations (BSs) should support half-duplex (HD) users’ equipment (UEs) without sacrificing the foreseen FD gains. This paper presents flexible and tractable modeling framework for multi-tier cellular networks with FD BSs and FD/HD UEs. The prese...

B rooke-Spiegler syndrome (BSS) includes the combination of spiradenomas, cylindromas, and trichoepitheliomas. It has been postulated that BSS results from defects in the regulation of putative stem cells of the folliculosebaceous-apocrine unit. This follicular dysregulation may give rise to 3 different genodermatoses: familial cylindromatosis (FC), multiple familial trichoepithelioma (MFT), or...

The aim of blind source separation (BSS) is to transform a mixed random vector such that the original sources are recovered. If the sources are assumed to be statistically independent, independent component analysis (ICA) can be applied to perform BSS. An important aspect of successfully analysing data with BSS is to know the indeterminacies of the problem, that is how the separating model is r...

Previous studies have shown bismuth subsalicylate (BSS) has antimicrobial properties, but few studies have addressed the mechanism of action. Furthermore, following BSS ingestion other bismuth salts form throughout the gastrointestinal tract including bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) that also act upon enteric pathogens. To further understand the antimicrobial activity of bismuth in infectious diarr...

The Bandwidth Sharing Server (BSS) is a scheduling strategy for multi-task real-time applications that provides the dual properties of performance guarantees and inter-application isolation. We describe here the BSS-I algorithm, an evolution of the BSS, aimed at (i) improving the run-time performance and (ii) generalizing the kinds of performance guarantees that can be o ered.

This paper proposes a blind multiuser detection and channel estimation method for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems based on blind source separation (BSS). Using multiple antennas for transmission and reception the multiuser detection problem can be cast as a BSS problem of linear instantaneous mixtures. The proposed method uses BSS ...

Two major challenges facing 5G are energy efficiency and mobile users’ mobility in heterogeneous wireless networks. Using algorithms based on the base station (BS)’s switching between ON and OFF modes, can improve the energy efficiency of the network. In this paper, we consider mobile terminal’s seamless mobility problem joint with BSs which are able to switch between ON and OFF modes. Also, we...

The problem of multiuser detection in wireless communications systems adopts, in flat-fading channels, a blind source separation (BSS) formulation of instantaneous linear mixtures. This contribution addresses the closed-form solutions to BSS in the complex-mixture scenario. The algebraic devices which span a unifying framework for the complex BSS closed-form estimators are developed. With the a...
