EVM and Achievable Data Rate Analysis of Clipped OFDM Signals in Visible Light Communication
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) has been considered for
visible light communication (VLC) thanks to its ability to boost data rates as
well as its robustness against frequency-selective fading channels. A major
disadvantage of OFDM is the large dynamic range of its time-domain waveforms,
making OFDM vulnerable to nonlinearity of light emitting diodes (LEDs). DC
biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM) and asymmetrically clipped optical OFDM
(ACO-OFDM) are two popular OFDM techniques developed for the VLC. In this
paper, we will analyze the performance of the DCO-OFDM and ACO-OFDM signals in
terms of error vector magnitude (EVM), signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR), and
achievable data rates under both average optical power and dynamic optical
power constraints. EVM is a commonly used metric to characterize distortions.
We will describe an approach to numerically calculate the EVM for DCO-OFDM and
ACO-OFDM. We will derive the optimum biasing ratio in the sense of minimizing
EVM for DCO-OFDM. Additionally, we will formulate the EVM minimization problem
as a convex linear optimization problem and obtain an EVM lower bound against
which to compare the DCO-OFDM and ACO-OFDM techniques. We will prove that the
ACO-OFDM can achieve the lower bound. Average optical power and dynamic optical
power are two main constraints in VLC. We will derive the achievable data rates
under these two constraints for both additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN)
channel and frequency-selective channel. We will compare the performance of
DCO-OFDM and ACO-OFDM under different power constraint scenarios
Muon Anomalous and Gauged Models
In this paper we study contribution to of the muon anomalous
magnetic dipole moment in gauged models. Here are
the lepton numbers. We find that there are three classes of models which can
produce a large value of to account for possible discrepancy between the
experimental data and the Standard Model prediction. The three classes are: a)
Models with an exact . In these models, is
massless. The new gauge interaction coupling is constrained
to be . b) Models with broken
and the breaking scale is not related to electroweak
symmetry breaking scale. The gauge boson is massive. The allowed range of
the coupling and the mass are constrained, but mass can be large; And
c) The is broken and the breaking scale is related to the
electroweak scale. In this case the mass is constrained to be
GeV. We find that there are interesting experimental signatures in
in these models.Comment: 13 pages, 9 figure
Nearly Bi-Maximal Neutrino Mixing, Muon g-2 Anomaly and Lepton-Flavor-Violating Processes
We interpret the newly observed muon g-2 anomaly in the framework of a
leptonic Higgs doublet model with nearly degenerate neutrino masses and nearly
bi-maximal neutrino mixing. Useful constraints are obtained on the rates of
lepton-flavor-violating rare decays ,
and as well as the - conversion ratio .
We find that , and
depend crucially on possible non-zero but samll values of the
neutrino mixing matrix element , and they are also sensitive to the
Dirac-type CP-violating phase. In particular, we show that , and are approximately in the ratio if is much larger than , and in the
ratio if is much lower than , where and are the corresponding mass-squared
differences of atmospheric and solar neutrino oscillations.Comment: LaTex 6 pages (2 PS figures). Phys. Rev. D (in printing
Bottom-Tau Unification in SUSY SU(5) GUT and Constraints from b to s gamma and Muon g-2
An analysis is made on bottom-tau Yukawa unification in supersymmetric (SUSY)
SU(5) grand unified theory (GUT) in the framework of minimal supergravity, in
which the parameter space is restricted by some experimental constraints
including Br(b to s gamma) and muon g-2. The bottom-tau unification can be
accommodated to the measured branching ratio Br(b to s gamma) if superparticle
masses are relatively heavy and higgsino mass parameter \mu is negative. On the
other hand, if we take the latest muon g-2 data to require positive SUSY
contributions, then wrong-sign threshold corrections at SUSY scale upset the
Yukawa unification with more than 20 percent discrepancy. It has to be
compensated by superheavy threshold corrections around the GUT scale, which
constrains models of flavor in SUSY GUT. A pattern of the superparticle masses
preferred by the three requirements is also commented.Comment: 21pages, 6figure
The anomalous magnetic moment of the muon and radiative lepton decays
The leptons are viewed as composite objects, exhibiting anomalous magnetic
moments and anomalous flavor-changing transition moments. The decay is expected to occur with a branching ratio of the same order as the
present experimental limit.Comment: 5 page
Deconstructing Gaugino Mediation
We present a model of supersymmetry breaking which produces gaugino masses
and negligible scalar masses at a high scale. The model is inspired by
``deconstructing'' or ``latticizing'' models in extra dimensions where
supersymmetry breaking and visible matter are spatially separated. We find a
simple four-dimensional model which only requires two lattice sites (or gauge
groups) to reproduce the phenomenology.Comment: LaTeX, 9 pages, acknowledgements adde
Muon anomalous magnetic moment in string inspired extended family models
We propose a standard model minimal extension with two lepton weak SU(2)
doublets and a scalar singlet to explain the deviation of the measured
anomalous magnetic moment of the muon from the standard model expectation. This
scheme can be naturally motivated in string inspired models such as E_6 and
AdS/CFT.Comment: 9 pages, RevTeX, 2 figures, version to be published in Phys. Rev.
The Reach of the Fermilab Tevatron and CERN LHC for Gaugino Mediated SUSY Breaking Models
In supersymmetric models with gaugino mediated SUSY breaking (inoMSB), it is
assumed that SUSY breaking on a hidden brane is communicated to the visible
brane via gauge superfields which propagate in the bulk. This leads to GUT
models where the common gaugino mass is the only soft SUSY breaking
term to receive contributions at tree level. To obtain a viable phenomenology,
it is assumed that the gaugino mass is induced at some scale beyond the
GUT scale, and that additional renormalization group running takes place
between and as in a SUSY GUT. We assume an SU(5) SUSY GUT above
the GUT scale, and compute the SUSY particle spectrum expected in models with
inoMSB. We use the Monte Carlo program ISAJET to simulate signals within the
inoMSB model, and compute the SUSY reach including cuts and triggers approriate
to Fermilab Tevatron and CERN LHC experiments. We find no reach for SUSY by the
Tevatron collider in the trilepton channel. %either with or without %identified
tau leptons. At the CERN LHC, values of (1160) GeV can be probed
with 10 (100) fb of integrated luminosity, corresponding to a reach in
terms of of 2150 (2500) GeV. The inoMSB model and mSUGRA can likely
only be differentiated at a linear collider with sufficient energy to
produce sleptons and charginos.Comment: 17 page revtex file with 9 PS figure
Bi-large Neutrino Mixing and Mass of the Lightest Neutrino from Third Generation Dominance in a Democratic Approach
We show that both small mixing in the quark sector and large mixing in the
lepton sector can be obtained from a simple assumption of universality of
Yukawa couplings and the right-handed neutrino Majorana mass matrix in leading
order. We discuss conditions under which bi-large mixing in the lepton sector
is achieved with a minimal amount of fine-tuning requirements for possible
models. From knowledge of the solar and atmospheric mixing angles we determine
the allowed values of sin \theta_{13}. If embedded into grand unified theories,
the third generation Yukawa coupling unification is a generic feature while
masses of the first two generations of charged fermions depend on small
perturbations. In the neutrino sector, the heavier two neutrinos are model
dependent, while the mass of the lightest neutrino in this approach does not
depend on perturbations in the leading order. The right-handed neutrino mass
scale can be identified with the GUT scale in which case the mass of the
lightest neutrino is given as (m_{top}^2/M_{GUT}) sin^2 \theta_{23} sin^2
\theta_{12} in the limit sin \theta_{13} = 0. Discussing symmetries we make a
connection with hierarchical models and show that the basis independent
characteristic of this scenario is a strong dominance of the third generation
right-handed neutrino, M_1, M_2 < 10^{-4} M_3, M_3 = M_{GUT}.Comment: typos correcte
