Algorithms and VLSI Implementations of MIMO Detection English | 2022 | ISBN: 3031045114 | 252 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 8 MB This book provides a detailed overview of detection algorithms for multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) communications systems focusing on their hardware realisation. The book begins by analysing the maximum likelihood detector, which provides the optimal bit error rate performance in an uncoded communications system. However, the maximum likelihood detector experiences a high complexity that scales exponentially with the number of antennas, which makes it impractical for real-time communications systems. The authors proceed to discuss lower-complexity detection algorithms such as zero-forcing, sphere decoding, and the K-best algorithm, with the aid of detailed algorithmic analysis and several MATLAB code examples. Furthermore, different design examples of MIMO detection algorithms and their hardware implementation results are presented and discussed. Finally, an ASIC design flow for implementing MIMO detection algorithms in hardware is provided, including the system simulation and modelling steps and register transfer level modelling using hardware description languages. Alexandria, Real and Imagined by Anthony Hirst and Michael Silk English | 2016 by Routledge | ISBN: 0754638901 | 432 Pages | True PDF | 43 MB Agrippina: Empress, Exile, Hustler, Whore by Emma Southon English | August 10, 2018 | ISBN: 1911586602 | True EPUB | 320 pages | 4.1 MB Agrippina the Younger held a unique position in the first Roman imperial family. As great niece of Tiberius, sister of Caligula, wife of Claudius and mother of Nero she stood at the centre of power in the Roman empire for three generations. Even in her own time, she was recognised as a woman of unparalleled power. From exile to being hailed empress, across three marriages and three widowhoods, her life, power and role were extraordinary in their scope and drama. Beautiful and intelligent, she is alternately a ruthless murderer and helpless victim, the most loving mother and the most powerful woman of the Roman empire. She is portrayed in ancient sources as using sex, motherhood, manipulation and violence to get her way, and single-minded in her pursuit of power for herself and her son. Agrippina s life sheds light on the Julio-Claudian dynasty and Rome at its height - the chaos, blood and politics of it all - as well as the place of women in the Roman world. ASEAN Maritime Security: The Global Maritime Fulcrum in the Indo-Pacific by Khanisa English | EPUB | 2022 | 128 Pages | ISBN : 9811923612 | 7.2 MB This book covers various strategic issues around maritime security in terms of how Indonesia has sought to implement its Global Maritime Fulcrum (GMF) vision, evaluating its regional impact within ASEAN. A Quick Guide To Java by Maureen Pittman English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0B5VKH223 | 475 pages | EPUB | 43 Mb This upgraded edition of Java in short not only helps seasoned Java programmers get one of the most out of Java versions 9 through 11, it's additionally a discovering course for new programmers. Chock filled with instances that demonstrate just how to take complete advantage of modern Java APIs and also development best techniques, this extensively revised book consists of new product on Java Concurrency Utilities. A Plasma Formulary for Physics, Technology and Astrophysics By Dr. Declan A. Diver(auth.) 2001 | 214 Pages | ISBN: 3527402942 | PDF | 5 MB Plasma physics has matured rapidly as a discipline, and now touches on many different research areas, including manufacturing processes. This collection of fundamental formulae and definitions in plasma physics is vital to anyone with an interest in plasmas or ionized gases, whether in physics, astronomy or engineering. Both theorists and experimentalists will find this book useful, as it incorporates the latest results and findings. The text treats astrophysical plasmas, fusion plasmas, industrial plasmas and low temperature plasmas as aspects of the same discipline - a unique approach made possible by the abbreviated nature of a formulary.Content: Chapter 1 Basic Physical Data (pages 1-11): Chapter 2 Basic Plasma Parameters (pages 13-22): Chapter 3 Discharge Plasmas and Elementary Processes (pages 23-41): Chapter 4 Radiation (pages 43-62): Chapter 5 Kinetic Theory (pages 63-74): Chapter 6 Plasma Transport (pages 75-91): Chapter 7 Plasma Waves (pages 93-115): Chapter 8 Flows (pages 117-144): Chapter 9 Equilibria and Instabilities (pages 145-166): Chapter 10 Mathematics (pages 167-186): Jeffrey D. Sachs, "A New Foreign Policy: Beyond American Exceptionalism" English | 2020 | ISBN: 0231188498, 023118848X | 272 pages | EPUB | 1.2 MB The American Century began in 1941 and ended on January 20, 2017. While the United States remains a military giant and is still an economic powerhouse, it no longer dominates the world economy or geopolitics as it once did. The current turn toward nationalism and "America first" unilateralism in foreign policy will not make America great. Instead, it represents the abdication of our responsibilities in the face of severe environmental threats, political upheaval, mass migration, and other global challenges. Bruce Ansley, "A Long Slow Affair of the Heart: An Adventure on the French Canals" English | 2008 | ISBN: 1877460214 | EPUB | pages: 132 | 0.4 mb A Historical Guide to Roman York by Paul Chrystal English | December 30th, 2021 | ISBN: 152678128X | 328 pages | True EPUB | 34.73 MB Considering that York was always an important Roman city there are few books available that are devoted specifically to the Roman occupation, even though it lasted for over 300 years and played a significant role in the politics and military activity of Roman Britain and the Roman Empire throughout that period. The few books that there are tend to describe the Roman era and its events in date by date order with little attention paid either to why things happened as they did or to the consequences of these actions and developments. Daniel Pauly, "5 Easy Pieces: The Impact of Fisheries on Marine Ecosystems" English | 2010 | ISBN: 1597267198, 159726718X | 200 pages | EPUB | 1.8 MB Five Easy Pieces features five contributions, originally published in Nature and Science, demonstrating the massive impacts of modern industrial fisheries on marine ecosystems. Initially published over an eight-year period, from 1995 to 2003, these articles illustrate a transition in scientific thought from the initially-contested realisation that the crisis of fisheries and their underlying ocean ecosystems was, in fact, global to its broad acceptance by mainstream scientific and public opinion. |
