Abstract: We design serial concatenated multi-input multi-output systems based on low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. We employ a receiver structure combining the demapper/detector and the decoder ...

Neural firing rates are thought to represent values which code information. There are drawbacks with using biophysical events to represent numbers. (1) Rate code (like any sequence) is inherently slow ...

Cochlear implants (CIs) provide important speech cues to deaf patients, but they fail to support the discrimination of temporal sound features with submillisecond precision. Although CIs rapidly and ...

In neural prostheses, intensity modulation of a single channel (i.e., through a single stimulating electrode) has been achieved by increasing the magnitude or width of each stimulation pulse, which ...

Inverter circuits are often needed where it is not possible to get AC supply from the grid. An inverter circuit is used to convert DC power to AC power and it can be divided into two types that is ...

Smartphones have long since surpassed the old MP3 player when it comes to portable music, and continue to include more and more impressive audio hardware to win over the audiophile crowd – from front ...

The sun and moon exert a gravitational tug on Earth that stretches and compresses crustal rocks. This cyclic stressing can promote or inhibit fault slip, particularly at the deep roots of faults. The ...

To analyse Msn2 and Mig1 dynamics in the same cell, we constructed strains expressing fusions of Msn2 and Mig1 proteins to the distinguishable fluorescent proteins 39 mKO2 and mCherry, respectively ...
