Two Step Filament Eruption During 14-15 March 2015
We present here an interesting two-step filament eruption during 14-15 March
2015. The filament was located in NOAA AR 12297 and associated with a halo
Coronal Mass Ejection (CME). We use observations from the Atmospheric Imaging
Assembly (AIA) and Heliospheric Magnetic Imager (HMI) instruments onboard the
Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), and from the Solar and Heliospheric
Observatory (SOHO) Large Angle and Spectrometric Coronagraph (LASCO). We also
use H-alpha data from the Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG) telescope and
the Kanzelhoehe Solar Observatory. The filament shows a first step eruption on
14 March 2015 and it stops its rise at a projected altitude ~ 125 Mm on the
solar disk. It remains at this height for ~ 12 hrs. Finally it eruptes on 15
March 2015 and produced a halo CME. We also find jet activity in the active
region during both days, which could help the filament de-stabilization and
eruption. The decay index is calculated to understand this two-step eruption.
The eruption could be due to the presence of successive
instability-stability-instability zones as the filament is rising.Comment: 11 pages, 7 figures, accepted for the publication in Solar Physic
On the DMT of TDD-SIMO Systems with Channel-Dependent Reverse Channel Training
This paper investigates the Diversity-Multiplexing gain Trade-off (DMT) of a
training based reciprocal Single Input Multiple Output (SIMO) system, with (i)
perfect Channel State Information (CSI) at the Receiver (CSIR) and noisy CSI at
the Transmitter (CSIT), and (ii) noisy CSIR and noisy CSIT. In both the cases,
the CSIT is acquired through Reverse Channel Training (RCT), i.e., by sending a
training sequence from the receiver to the transmitter. A channel-dependent
fixed-power training scheme is proposed for acquiring CSIT, along with a
forward-link data transmit power control scheme. With perfect CSIR, the
proposed scheme is shown to achieve a diversity order that is quadratically
increasing with the number of receive antennas. This is in contrast with
conventional orthogonal RCT schemes, where the diversity order is known to
saturate as the number of receive antennas is increased, for a given channel
coherence time. Moreover, the proposed scheme can achieve a larger DMT compared
to the orthogonal training scheme. With noisy CSIR and noisy CSIT, a three-way
training scheme is proposed and its DMT performance is analyzed. It is shown
that nearly the same diversity order is achievable as in the perfect CSIR case.
The time-overhead in the training schemes is explicitly accounted for in this
work, and the results show that the proposed channel-dependent RCT and data
power control schemes offer a significant improvement in terms of the DMT,
compared to channel-agnostic orthogonal RCT schemes. The outage performance of
the proposed scheme is illustrated through Monte-Carlo simulations.Comment: Accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on Communication
