Application of array processing for mobile communications

Digital Signal Processing (DSP) is about a mathematical equation and mathematical operations. It is described by the significations of discrete period, discrete frequency, or supplementary discrete area signals by a order of numbers or signals and the processing of all the signals that related. Digital Signal Processing applications consist of the signal processing for communication. For example is the array processing for the mobile communications. Signal processing is a extensive area of scrutiny that extends from the easiest form of 1-D signal processing to the convoluted form of M-D and array signal processing. This report presents th

Participatory research to elicit gender differentiated knowledge of native fruit trees

Both men and women have specific local ecological knowledge of native fruit tree species. Excluding women from research-for-development initiatives is problematic because it can limit their access to the benefits derived from improved managemnet and use of fruit diversity. A study was conducted to better understand the ecological, organizational and marketing aspects of native fruit trees in Sarawak, Malaysia. Participatory research tools were used to explore the knowledge of both women and men about forest resources and benefits

Resistive open faults detectability analysis and implications for testing low power nanometric ICs

Resistive open faults (ROFs) represent common manufacturing defects in IC interconnects and result in delay faults that cause timing failures and reliability risks. The nonmonotonic dependence of ROF-induced delay faults on the supply voltage (VDD) poses a concern as to whether single-VDD testing will suffice for low power nanometric designs. Our analysis shows multi-VDD tests could be required, depending on the test speed. This knowledge can be exploited in small delay fault testing to reduce the chances of test escapes while minimizing cost

On testing of MEDA based digital microfluidics biochips

Recent years have seen rapid progress in using digital microfluidics based biochips for biomedical assays. The testing and reliability of these biochips is crucial when they are used in point-of-care diagnostics applications. As the scalability and complexity of biomedical assays increases, there is a need for efficient testing methodologies to ensure reliability of these biochips. The conventional testing methodologies will not be sufficient for the recently proposed and highly scalable Micro-electrode-dot array (MEDA) architecture based digital microfluidics. This is because of the advanced fluidic movement operations incorporated in the MEDA architecture. This paper investigates the testing methodologies for conventional digital microfluidics based biochips and their relevancy to the MEDA architecture based digital microfluidics biochip
