The average bit error rate (HER) performance of a Gray coded arbitrary rectangular quadrature amplitude modulation (AR-QAM) signal with maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity in an arbitrarily correlated Nakagami-m fading channel is derived and analyzed. The derived two types of general solutions are a simple closed-form and an integral form, depending on the types of the values (integer and non-integer) of the fading parameter. Using the derived equations in this paper, we analyzed the HER performances numerically based on the practical base station antenna configuration. The results show that MRC reception is a very effective scheme so far even though the combined signals are not independent each other because of the correlation values. The antenna height and separation of the MRC system relate to the correlation coefficient value between antennas, and go a long way with the diversity advantage. In particular, it is needed to be determined the antenna height that is carefully do for the diversity advantage because the correlation coefficient and the antenna height gain are contrary to each other from the aspect of the system performance. The expressions presented here can offer a convenient way to evaluate the exact HER performance of an arbitrary rectangular QAM signal with MRC diversity reception for various cases of practical interest on a correlated Nakagami fading channel.

In this paper, we present an analytical method for estimating the saturation throughput of an 802.11 ad hoc LAN in the presence of noise distorting transmitted frames. This is the first method that allows studying analytically the 802.11 network performance with consideration of correlated channel failures usually inherent to realistic wireless channels. With the study, we consider the possible packet fragmentation that can be adopted to reduce the performance degradation caused by noise-induced distortions. In addition to the throughput, our method allows estimating the probability of a packet rejection occurring when the number of packet transmission retries attains its limit. The obtained numerical results of investigating 802.11 LANs by the developed method are validated by simulation and show high estimation accuracy as well as the method efficiency in determining the optimal fragmentation threshold.

Recently, spatial modulation (SM) schemes are considered to improve the reception performance in spatially correlated channel environments. SM schemes utilize a switching method between multiple transmitters to reduce the correlation among multiple transmitters to reduce the correlation of each received signals and can support transmission additional bits using antenna combinations without extra bandwidth. Therefore, SM schemes can overcome correlation interference of conventional MIMO in urban wireless channels. However, the performance comparisons between SM schemes are not yet performed in correlated urban wireless channels. In this paper, some representative SM schemes are compared and a suitable SM-MIMO system in correlated urban wireless channels is proposed.

In this paper, we propose a compressive sensing-based channel quantization feedback mechanism that is appropriate for practical massvie multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems. We assume that the base station (BS) has a compact uniform square array that has a highly correlated channel. To serve multiple users, the BS uses a zero-forcing precoder. Our proposed channel feedback algorithm can reduce the feedback overhead as well as a codebook search complexity. Numerical simulations confirm our analytical results.

To investigate water mass structure and DO(Dissolved Oxygen) distribution in Chinhae Bay, temperature, salinity and DO were observed in the bay in summer and winter from 1990 to 1993, and two-dimensional tidal current and parameter log($H/U^3$) were computed. Shallow water fronts in the bay were formed in summer in Kaduk channel and the central part of the bay having log($H/U^3$) values of $2.0{\sim}2.5$. Oxygen deficiency at the bottom layer in summer occurred in the western and northern part of the bay with weak tidal current, where the value of log($H/U^3$) was more than about 3.5 and $M_2$ tidal current was less than about 20 cm/s. DO concentration at the bottom layer of Kaduk channel and the central channel of the bay having the strong tidal current was more than about 3.5 mg/l. The isolines of DO concentration were nearly parallel to the isovelocity, and the concentrations correlated with the frontal location. The frontal location and DO distribution were influenced by tidal range, river inflow and meteorological conditions, and also correlated with bottom slope characteristics.

Experiment was performed to study the characteristics of pressure drop of multi-channel tubes for automotive condenser using HFC-134a. Single phase liquid and two phase flow pressure drop were measured in one rectangular plain and three micro-fin tubes with 10 channels. Data are presented for the following range of variables: mass flux(200 to $600kg/m^2s$), and inlet saturation pressure of the refrigerant(1.0 and 1.6MPa). For subcooled flow, pressure drops are 10% and 12% higher than that predicted by the Petukhov equation with hydraulic diameter respectively. Two-phase flow pressure drop are compared with the previously proposed correlations, and well predicted by modified correlation that was derived from Traviss correlation. and correlated within -30~+20%. Also experimental data are correlated within -56%~+18% by Webb's prediction method based on the equivalent mass velocity concept originally proposed by Akers et al.

The analysis of maximum diversity order and coding gain for multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) systems over time-and frequency-selective (or doubly-selective) channels is addressed in this paper. A novel channel time-space correlation function is developed given the spatially correlated doubly-selective Rayleigh fading channel model. Based on this channel-model assumption, the upper-bound of pairwise error probability (PEP) for MIMO-OFDM systems is derived under the maximum likelihood (ML) detection. For a certain space-frequency code, we quantify the maximum diversity order and deduce the expression of coding gain. In this wort the impact of channel time selectivity is especially studied and a new definition of time diversity is illustrated correspondingly

This paper examines the features that make a YouTube channel attractive to users. Considering that drawing users' attention is challenging on this platform, where voluminous amounts of videos are available, it is crucial to identify the factors that make users intend to subscribe to a YouTube channel. In this study, we used an online survey to collect data from 1125 respondents and an SEM model using Smart PLS 3.2.8 to analyze it. The results show that integrity and familiarity with a YouTube channel are positively correlated with trust in its creator, which leads to subscribing to the YouTube channel; value and accuracy also positively affect intention to subscribe to a YouTube channel via trust in content. This study enriches the field of research about trust in the creator and trust in content.

This paper deals with a precoder design method when the system has imperfect channel information. When MIMO relay system knows the correlation coefficient between perfect channel and imperfect channel information and the variance of the difference between perfect channel and correlated imperfect channel, source and relay precoders are designed to maximize the upper bound of the channel capacity. Also, we investigate channel capacities of the system using proposed precoder and compare with the optimal value according to the correlation and the variance of error channel by simulations.
