Dual-Polarization OFDM-OQAM Wireless Communication System
In this paper we describe the overall idea and results of a recently proposed
radio access technique based on filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) communication
system using two orthogonal polarizations: dual-polarization FBMC (DP-FBMC).
Using this system we can alleviate the intrinsic interference problem in FBMC
systems. This enables use of all the multicarrier techniques used in
cyclic-prefix orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) systems for
channel equalization, multiple-input/multiple-output (MIMO) processing, etc.,
without using the extra processing required for conventional FBMC. DP-FBMC also
provides other interesting advantages over CP-OFDM and FBMC such as more
robustness in multipath fading channels, and more robustness to receiver
carrier frequency offset (CFO) and timing offset (TO). For DP-FBMC we propose
three different structures based on different multiplexing techniques in time,
frequency, and polarization. We will show that one of these structures has
exactly the same system complexity and equipment as conventional FBMC. In our
simulation results DP-FBMC has better bit error ratio (BER) performance in
dispersive channels. Based on these results, DP-FBMC has potential as a
promising candidate for future wireless communication systems.Comment: 1.This paper is accepted to be published in IEEE Vehicular Technology

PAPR Analysis for Dual-Polarization FBMC
In a recent work we proposed a new radio access technique based on filter
bank multi-carrier (FBMC) modulation using two orthogonal polarizations:
dual-polarization FBMC (DP-FBMC). We showed that with good cross-polarization
discrimination (XPD), DP-FBMC solves the intrinsic imaginary interference
shortcoming of FBMC without extra processing. DP-FBMC also has other
interesting advantages over cyclic prefix orthogonal frequency-division
multiplexing (CP-OFDM) and FBMC such as more robustness in dispersive channels,
and it is also more robust to receiver carrier frequency offset (CFO) and
timing offset (TO). In this paper we analyze the peak to average power ratio
(PAPR) of DP-FBMC and compare PAPR simulation results with that of conventional
FBMC, for different prototype filters and overlapping factors. According to the
analysis and results, with a proper choice of prototype filter, DP-FBMC has
comparable PAPR to FBMC.Comment: This paper has been published in IEEE MILCOM Conference 2018. Some

Synthesis of 1,4-Disubstituted Mono and Bis-triazolocarbo-acyclonucleoside Analogues of 9-(4-Hydroxybutyl)guanine by Cu(I)-Catalyzed Click Azide-Alkyne Cycloaddition
A series of novel mono-1,2,3-triazole and bis-1,2,3-triazole acyclonucleoside analogues of 9-(4-hydroxybutyl)guanine was prepared via copper(I)-catalyzed 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of N-9 propargylpurine, N-1-propargylpyrimidines/as-triazine with the azido-pseudo-sugar 4-azidobutylacetate under solvent-free microwave conditions, followed by treatment with K2CO3/MeOH, or NH3/MeOH. All compounds studied in this work were screened for their antiviral activities [against human rhinovirus (HRV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV)] and antibacterial activities against a series of Gram positive and negative bacteria
On the capacity achieving covariance matrix for Rician MIMO channels: an asymptotic approach
The capacity-achieving input covariance matrices for coherent block-fading
correlated MIMO Rician channels are determined. In this case, no closed-form
expressions for the eigenvectors of the optimum input covariance matrix are
available. An approximation of the average mutual information is evaluated in
this paper in the asymptotic regime where the number of transmit and receive
antennas converge to . New results related to the accuracy of the
corresponding large system approximation are provided. An attractive
optimization algorithm of this approximation is proposed and we establish that
it yields an effective way to compute the capacity achieving covariance matrix
for the average mutual information. Finally, numerical simulation results show
that, even for a moderate number of transmit and receive antennas, the new
approach provides the same results as direct maximization approaches of the
average mutual information, while being much more computationally attractive.Comment: 56 pp. Extended version of the published article in IEEE Inf. Th.

Dissents and Concurrences: Seven Debates in Charter Jurisprudence
The Supreme Court of Canada released seven Charter decisions in 2012 that were not unanimous. When compared to the non-Charter cases released the same year, the Charter dissents represented a higher rate of disagreement between the justices. This should not come as a surprise. The Charter is an open-textured instrument that admits of flexibility and growth. Dissents and differing approaches are expected as Charter jurisprudence continues to develop. This paper argues that the seven Charter dissents/concurrences released in 2012 provide a rich illustration of the various functions of dissenting opinions. As articulated by Justice LâHeureux-DubĂ©, these are: to prophesize, to stir dialogue, and to safeguard the integrity of the law and judicial institutions. Each of these functions takes on a special dimension in the realm of Charter jurisprudence. In their prophetic function, dissents are intimately connected to the doctrine of the living tree â recognizing, as it does, that there will be a future audience of constitutional opinions that will not necessarily share the constraints of our more dated institutions. The dialogic function of dissents, likewise, takes on additional significance in this context. Charter dissents are a fundamental part of the forward-looking conversation between courts and society, giving the m the potential to shape, over the long term, the societal values they engage. Finally, dissents in Charter cases essentially promote the integrity of our judicial institutions. The âfierce independenceâ of the justices on constitutional matters necessitates real opportunities to dissent
