Sub-Channel allocation in the MC-CDMA systems for Throughput Maximization -A Survey

ABSTRACT: Efficient Channel allocation is one of the important problem in the latest generation mobile communication systems. A very high data rate is most wanted for the usage of multimedia and Internet, So in this paper surveys the performance of Adaptive Channel Allocation (ACA) algorithm and allocates the channels to users for high data rates in the downlink transmission of MC-CDMA systems. For the analysis autoregressive model of correlated Rayleigh fading processes is used. Performance of the ACA algorithm is evaluated with MRC,EGC,ZFC combining schemes. KEYWORDS : MC-CDMA, ACA,BER, THROUGHPUT. I.INTRODUCTION In this paper spectrum allocation technique for MC-CDMA system is evaluated for the long time evolution and Rayleigh fading channel is used for the evaluation. The targets for downlink set to 1Gbit/s and uplink data rate requirements were set to 500Mbit/s. Previously throughput technique is maximized by improved algorithm II. FORMULATION OF MAXIMIZING THROUGHPUT Proper use of channels and transmit power to maximize the throughput. In the downlink transmission of multiuser MC-CDMA technique for the given transmit power at the base station maximum possible number of channels should be allocated to the users to maximize throughput maintaining low BER. If the required amount of transmit power of eac

Diabetic Hearts Exhibit Global DNA Hypermethylation That Alter the Mitochondrial Functional Genes to Enhance the Sensitivity of the Heart to Ischemia Reperfusion Injury

A recent study has shown that DNA hypermethylation can promote ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury by regulating the mitochondrial function. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is reported to induce DNA hypermethylation, but whether this prior DNA methylation in DM I/R heart inflicts a beneficial or detrimental effect is not known and is addressed in this study. DM was induced in 6-week-old male Wistar rats with streptozotocin (65 mg/kg b.wt). After 24 weeks on a normal diet, I/R was induced in rat heart using a Langendorff perfusion system and analyzed the myocardium for different parameters to measure hemodynamics, infarct size, DNA methylation and mitochondrial function. Diabetic heart exhibited DNA hypermethylation of 39% compared to the control, along with DNMT expression elevated by 41%. I/R induction in diabetic heart promoted further DNA hypermethylation (24%) with aggravated infarct size (21%) and reduced the cardiac rate pressure product (43%) from I/R heart. Importantly, diabetic I/R hearts also experienced a decline in the mitochondrial copy number (60%); downregulation in the expression of mitochondrial bioenergetics (ND1, ND2, ND3, ND4, ND5, ND6) and mitofusion (MFN1, MFN2) genes and the upregulation of mitophagy (PINK, PARKIN, OPTN) and mitofission (MFF, DNM1, FIS1) genes that reduce the dp/dt contribute to the contractile dysfunction in DM I/R hearts. Besides, a negative correlation was obtained between mitochondrial PGC1α, POLGA, TFAM genes and DNA hypermethylation in DM I/R hearts. Based on the above data, the elevated global DNA methylation level in diabetic I/R rat hearts deteriorated the mitochondrial function by downregulating the expression of POLGA, TFAM and PGC1α genes and negatively contributed to I/R-associated increased infarct size and altered hemodynamics

CABG Patients Develop Global DNA Hypermethylation, That Negatively Affect the Mitochondrial Function and Promote Post-Surgical Cognitive Decline: A Proof of Concept in Small Cohort

Global DNA hypermethylation and mitochondrial dysfunction are reported to be associated with the development of mild cognitive decline (MCI). The present study aims to generate preliminary data that connect the above association with post-surgical coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) cognitive decline in patients. Data were collected from 70 CABG patients and 25 age-matched controls. Cognitive function was assessed using the Montreal Cognitive Assessment (MOCA) test on day 1 (before surgery) and on the day of discharge. Similarly, blood was collected before and one day after the CABG procedure for mitochondrial functional analysis and expression of DNA methylation genes. Test analysis score suggested 31 (44%) patients had MCI before discharge. These patients showed a significant decrease in complex I activity and an increase in malondialdehyde levels (p p p < 0.047), with an insignificant increase in TET1 and TET3 gene expression. Correlation analysis showed a significant positive relation between cognitive decline and elevated blood DNMT1 and declined blood complex I activity, signifying that cognitive decline experienced by post-surgical CABG patients is associated with increased DNMT1 expression and declined complex I activity. Based on the data, we conclude that both DNA hypermethylation and mitochondrial dysfunction are associated with post-CABG MCI, where the former is negatively correlated, and the latter is positively correlated with post-surgical MCI in CABG cases. Additionally, a multimarker approach that comprises MOCA, DNA methylation, DNMT, and NQR activities can be utilized to stratify the population that is sensitive to developing post-CABG MCI
