A modular method was suggested before to recover a band limited signal from
the sample and hold and linearly interpolated (or, in general, an
nth-order-hold) version of the regular samples. In this paper a novel approach
for compensating the distortion of any interpolation based on modular method
has been proposed. In this method the performance of the modular method is
optimized by adding only some simply calculated coefficients. This approach
causes drastic improvement in terms of signal-to-noise ratios with fewer
modules compared to the classical modular method.
In this paper, we suggest a general model for the fixed-valued impulse noise
and propose a two-stage method for high density noise suppression while
preserving the image details. In the first stage, we apply an iterative impulse
detector, exploiting the image entropy, to identify the corrupted pixels and
then employ an Adaptive Iterative Mean filter (AIM) to restore them. The filter
is adaptive in terms of the number of iterations, which is different for each
noisy pixel, according to their Euclidean distance from the nearest uncorrupted
pixel.
The two-user Multiple Access Channel (MAC) with cooperative encoders and
Channel State Information (CSI) is considered where two different scenarios are
investigated: A two-user MAC with common message (MACCM) and a two-user MAC
with conferencing encoders (MACCE). For both situations, the two cases where
the CSI is known to the encoders either non-causally or causally are studied.
Achievable rate regions are established for both discrete memoryless channels
and Gaussian channels with additive interference.
Active Constellation Extension (ACE) is one of techniques introduced for Peak
to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) reduction for OFDM systems. In this technique,
the constellation points are extended such that the PAPR is minimized but the
minimum distance of the constellation points does not decrease. In this paper,
an iterative ACE method is extended to spatially encoded OFDM systems. The
proposed methods are such that the PAPR is reduced simultaneously at all
antennas, while the spatial encoding relationships still hold.
Recently, a new class of binary codes for overloaded CDMA systems are
proposed that not only has the ability of errorless communication but also
suitable for detecting active users. These codes are called COWDA [1]. In [1],
a Maximum Likelihood (ML) decoder is proposed for this class of codes. Although
the proposed scheme of coding/decoding show impressive performance, the decoder
can be improved.
In this paper we establish the connection between the Orthogonal Optical
Codes (OOC) and binary compressed sensing matrices. We also introduce
deterministic bipolar $m\times n$ RIP fulfilling $\pm 1$ matrices of order $k$
such that $\frac{\log m}{\log k}\approx \frac{\log(\log_2 n)}{\log(\log_2 k)}$.
The columns of these matrices are binary BCH code vectors where the zeros are
replaced by -1.
