A Robust and Low-Complexity Timing Synchronization Algorithm for ADSRC System
In this paper, a robust, low-complexity timing synchronization algorithm suitable for 5.9 GHz Dedicated Short Range Communications (DSRC) system is proposed. The proposed method uses cross-correlation technique to detect the starting point of both a short training symbol and the guard interval of the first long training symbol. This allows the proposed algorithm to have low-complex architecture. Compared to the scheme proposed by Chang and Kelly, the proposed algorithm attains considerably higher timing synchronization performance and significantly reduced computational complexity. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is robust and efficient in high-mobility environments and low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions
PACE: A test bed for the dynamics and control of flexible multibody systems
The Phillips Laboratory at Edwards AFB has constructed a test bed for the validation and comparison of modeling and control theories for the dynamics and control of flexible multibody systems. This project is called the Planar Articulating Controls Experiment (PACE). This paper presents the experimental apparatus for PACE and the problem formulation. An in-depth analysis on DC motor dynamics was also performed
Driven Diffusive Systems: How Steady States Depend on Dynamics
In contrast to equilibrium systems, non-equilibrium steady states depend
explicitly on the underlying dynamics. Using Monte Carlo simulations with
Metropolis, Glauber and heat bath rates, we illustrate this expectation for an
Ising lattice gas, driven far from equilibrium by an `electric' field. While
heat bath and Glauber rates generate essentially identical data for structure
factors and two-point correlations, Metropolis rates give noticeably weaker
correlations, as if the `effective' temperature were higher in the latter case.
We also measure energy histograms and define a simple ratio which is exactly
known and closely related to the Boltzmann factor for the equilibrium case. For
the driven system, the ratio probes a thermodynamic derivative which is found
to be dependent on dynamics
Monte Carlo Simulation of Sinusoidally Modulated Superlattice Growth
The fabrication of ZnSe/ZnTe superlattices grown by the process of rotating
the substrate in the presence of an inhomogeneous flux distribution instead of
successively closing and opening of source shutters is studied via Monte Carlo
simulations. It is found that the concentration of each compound is
sinusoidally modulated along the growth direction, caused by the uneven arrival
of Se and Te atoms at a given point of the sample, and by the variation of the
Te/Se ratio at that point due to the rotation of the substrate. In this way we
obtain a ZnSeTe alloy in which the composition varies
sinusoidally along the growth direction. The period of the modulation is
directly controlled by the rate of the substrate rotation. The amplitude of the
compositional modulation is monotonous for small angular velocities of the
substrate rotation, but is itself modulated for large angular velocities. The
average amplitude of the modulation pattern decreases as the angular velocity
of substrate rotation increases and the measurement position approaches the
center of rotation. The simulation results are in good agreement with
previously published experimental measurements on superlattices fabricated in
this manner
hVH-5: A Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase Abundant in Brain that Inactivates Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase
A novel protein tyrosine phosphatase [ h omologue of v accinia virus H 1 phosphatase gene clone 5 (hVH-5)] was cloned; it shared sequence similarity with a subset of protein tyrosine phosphatases that regulate mitogen-activated protein kinase. The catalytic region of hVH-5 was expressed as a fusion protein and was shown to hydrolyze p -nitrophenylphosphate and inactivate mitogen-activated protein kinase, thus proving that hVH-5 possessed phosphatase activity. A unique proline-rich region distinguished hVH-5 from other closely related protein tyrosine phosphatases. Another feature that distinguished hVH-5 from related phosphatases was that hVH-5 was expressed predominantly in the adult brain, heart, and skeletal muscle. In addition, in situ hybridization histochemistry of mouse embryo revealed high levels of expression and a wide distribution in the central and peripheral nervous system. Some specific areas of abundant hVH-5 expression included the olfactory bulb, retina, layers of the cerebral cortex, and cranial and spinal ganglia. hVH-5 was induced in PC12 cells upon nerve growth factor and insulin treatment in a manner characteristic of an immediate-early gene, suggesting a possible role in the signal transduction cascade.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/65883/1/j.1471-4159.1995.65041823.x.pd
