Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleComputing Amplify-and-Forward Relay Amplification Factor to Improve Total Capacity at DestinationOlalekan Bello, Hushairi Zen, Al-Khalid Othman, Khairuddin Abdul HamidIn this study, we propose a new Amplify-and-Forward (AF) amplification factor to improve the error performances of the current AF schemes and thus enhance the total capacity at the destination terminal. The proposed scheme has two degrees of freedom, meaning that it contains two variable parameters that can simultaneously vary the amplification factor instead of one as in traditional variable-gain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 8 · 12 Sep 2015 · 7,095 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Behavior of Tailings Earthen Dam Under Seismic ConditionsDebarghya Chakraborty, Deepankar ChoudhuryProblem statement: A number of tailings earthen dams have failed during past earthquakes. The failure of tailings dam ultimately results into the release of the stored tailings waste deposit in the surrounding locality. To reduce such damage of tailings earthen dam, a detail method of seismic analysis is very much essential which can be used reliably for the design and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,559 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign of a Current Sensor for IDDQ Testing of CMOS ICMohd Liakot Ali, Nurul Huda KhamisThis study presents the design of an off-chip current sensor for IDDQ testing of CMOS (Complementary Metal-oxide Semiconductor) ICs (integrated circuit). It provides a linear voltage signal of IDDQ current with a conversion factor of 5 mV/μA without any amplification. A voltage-controlled switch is used to bypass the transient current peaks. It has also been shown that the sensor is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,834 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Sequence Based Validation of Gene Expression Microarray DataGerhard G. Thallinger, Eva Obermayr, Pornpimol Charoentong et al.Problem statement: Quantitative Reverse Transcription PCR (RT-qPCR) is often used to validate microarray data. Previous studies show different levels of correlation, without further investigation of influencing factors. Approach: We compared expression levels of 381 genes obtained from microarray hybridizations and from TaqMan based RT-qPCR assays. Correlation of expression levels was determined by comparing: (i) single genes across samples, (ii) all … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 19 Jan 2012 · 13,715 accessesView PDF Cite
