Space-Time Coded Spatial Modulated Physical Layer Network Coding for Two-Way Relaying
Using the spatial modulation approach, where only one transmit antenna is
active at a time, we propose two transmission schemes for two-way relay channel
using physical layer network coding with space time coding using Coordinate
Interleaved Orthogonal Designs (CIOD's). It is shown that using two
uncorrelated transmit antennas at the nodes, but using only one RF transmit
chain and space-time coding across these antennas can give a better performance
without using any extra resources and without increasing the hardware
implementation cost and complexity. In the first transmission scheme, two
antennas are used only at the relay, Adaptive Network Coding (ANC) is employed
at the relay and the relay transmits a CIOD Space Time Block Code (STBC). This
gives a better performance compared to an existing ANC scheme for two-way relay
channel which uses one antenna each at all the three nodes. It is shown that
for this scheme at high SNR the average end-to-end symbol error probability
(SEP) is upper bounded by twice the SEP of a point-to-point fading channel. In
the second transmission scheme, two transmit antennas are used at all the three
nodes, CIOD STBC's are transmitted in multiple access and broadcast phases.
This scheme provides a diversity order of two for the average end-to-end SEP
with an increased decoding complexity of for an arbitrary
signal set and for square QAM signal set.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figure
Morphological filtering on hypergraphs
The focus of this article is to develop computationally efficient
mathematical morphology operators on hypergraphs. To this aim we consider
lattice structures on hypergraphs on which we build morphological operators. We
develop a pair of dual adjunctions between the vertex set and the hyper edge
set of a hypergraph H, by defining a vertex-hyperedge correspondence. This
allows us to recover the classical notion of a dilation/erosion of a subset of
vertices and to extend it to subhypergraphs of H. Afterward, we propose several
new openings, closings, granulometries and alternate sequential filters acting
(i) on the subsets of the vertex and hyperedge set of H and (ii) on the
subhypergraphs of a hypergraph
Sonoluminescence as Quantum Vaccum Radiation
We argue that the available experimental data is not compatible with models
of sonoluminescence which invoke dynamical properties of the interface without
regard to the compositional properties of the trapped gas inside the bubble.Comment: 2 pages,Revtex,No figures,Submitted to PRL(comments
Comparisons of Linear Regression Models for Properties of Alkaliactivated Binder Concrete
Concrete with alkali-activated binder (AAB) is increasingly considered as a better alternative to conventional portland cement (PC) concrete due to its superior sustainable and green properties. In order to promote the practical usage of AAB concrete, a previous study by the present authors proposed models on correlations among their mechanical and nondestructive properties. The present study extends the previous knowledge by proposing new improved models using linear regressions to predict compressive strengths and modulus of elasticity from ultrasonic pulse velocities. The models are developed for both unstressed and stressed AAB concrete with different curing temperatures. The accuracies of the models are compared with both sum of squares due to errors (SSE) and R2 depending on the type of equations; and the new models are found to be more accurate compared to the previous models
