Channel Estimation for MIMO MC-CDMA Systems

The concepts of MIMO MC-CDMA are not new but the new technologies to improve their functioning are an emerging area of research. In general, most mobile communication systems transmit bits of information in the radio space to the receiver. The radio channels in mobile radio systems are usually multipath fading channels, which cause inter-symbol interference (ISI) in the received signal. To remove ISI from the signal, there is a need of strong equalizer. In this thesis we have focused on simulating the MIMO MC-CDMA systems in MATLAB and designed the channel estimation for them

A modification of Adomian's solution for nonlinear oscillatory systems

AbstractIn this paper, we consider nonlinear oscillatory equations of the form d2udt2 + ϖ2u = εf(u, dudt), whose solutions can be obtained by the decomposition method. But these solutions do not exhibit periodicity, which is characteristic of oscillatory systems. We use an alternative technique by which the solution obtained by the decomposition method is made periodic. The method is described and illustrated with examples. There is no smallness assumption on the parameter ε occuring in the equation

Analysis of User’s Opinion using Deep Neural Network Techniques

Through many research and discoveries it has been widely accepted that aspect-level sentiment classification is achieved effectively by using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) network combined with attention mechanism and memory module. As existing approaches widely depend on the modeling of semantic relatedness of an aspect, at the same time we ignore their syntactic dependencies which are already a part of that sentence. This will result in undesirably an aspect on textual words that are descriptive of other aspects. So, in this paper, to offer syntax free contexts as well as they should be aspect specific, so we propose a proximity-weighted convolution network. To be more precise, we have one way of determining proximity weight which is dependency proximity. The construction of the model includes bidirectional LSTM architecture along with a proximity-weighted convolution neural network

Electronic Payment Systems Influence In Retail Management System

Digital payment, often known as microelectronic compensation, is the process of transferring monetary value from one payment account to another using a digital device, such as a cell phone. An automatic compensation refers to a digital transaction that takes place between two parties.  The many forms of e-compensation include line and bank allocations, cards, mobile payments, and other methods.  Various factors can influence industries in determining the most effective type or types of automated payment systems for their merchants.   Numerical recompense facilities are platforms that facilitate transactions between two parties, the spender and the acceptor, using electronic means to exchange funds.   Electronic prices are increasing the accessibility of expenditure and financing.   Electronic payments are rapidly enhancing the efficiency of transactions.  The objective is to minimize the expenses and challenges associated with cash management, enhance the convenience of online transactions, and promote transparency in financial transactions between individuals.   The digital payment system is a significant factor in the rapidly expanding commercial landscape. The majority of organizations are actively engaging in digitalization.   The majority of significant company operations and transactions have transitioned into the era of digitalization.   The key objective of research is to analyses different modes of electronic payment systems, identify the factors influencing the adoption of robotic expense systems in retail operations, investigate the implementation and components of electronic payment in the city of Chennai, and assess the practices and preferences of respondents regarding payment methods, as well as the impact of electronic payment on retail operations.   The results indicate that electronic payment methods are beneficial for retail businesses

A FRACTIONAL DELAY FIR FILTER BASED ON LAGRANGE INTERPOLATION OF FARROW STRUCTURE

An efficient implementation technique for the Lagrange interpolation is derived. This formulation called the Farrow structure leads to a version of Lagrange interpolation that is well suited to time varying FD filtering. Lagrange interpolation is mostly used for fractional delay approximation as it can be used for increasing the sampling rate of signals and systems. Lagrange interpolation is one of the representatives for a class of polynomial interpolation techniques. The computational cost of this structure is reduced as the number of multiplications are minimised in the new structure when compared with the conventional structure

A REVIEW ON SCOPES, METHODS AND RATIONALE OF INTEGRATIVE APPROACH IN SIDDHA MEDICINE WITH BIOMEDICINE

In India, according to WHO 2018 statistics, there were 63% of death occurred due to Non-communicable diseases (NCDs), in which Cardiovascular diseases were leading cause of death 27%, followed by Cancer 9%, Chronic respiratory disease 11%, Diabetes 3% and other NCDs 13%. This indicates that NCDs needs to become a priority in controlling and preventing. Therefore, the only effective intervention may be at controlling and preventing NCDs disease is Integrative Medicine. Integrative Medicine is a medical practice synthesizing Traditional medicine and Biomedicine preventive measures and treatment interventions. Autonomy of patients may end in no benefit out of their ignorance to select between the treatment options available in a country like India where Seven Recognized medical systems are available as a platter. Siddha system of medicine is one of the traditional medicines of India, practiced in the southern part of the country. This study aims at providing Health care system under one roof, in order to save public money, time and health as an existing model as co-location in Tamil Nadu.
