In this letter, a harmonic-mean-based dual-antenna selection scheme at relay node is proposed in two-way relaying networks (TWRNs). With well-designed distributed orthogonal concatenated Alamouti space-time block code (STBC), a dual-antenna selection problem based on the instantaneous achievable sum-rate criterion is formulated. We propose a low-complexity selection algorithm based on the harmonic-mean criterion with linearly complexity $O(N_R)$ rather than the directly exhaustive search with complexity $O(N^2_R)$. From the analysis of network outage performance, we show that the asymptotic diversity gain function of the proposed scheme achieves as $1/{\rho}{^{N_R-1}}$, which demonstrates one degree loss of diversity order compared with the full diversity. This slight performance gap is mainly caused by sacrificing some dual-antenna selection freedom to reduce the algorithm complexity. In addition, our proposed scheme can obtain an extra coding gain because of the combination of the well-designed orthogonal concatenated Alamouti STBC and the corresponding dual-antenna selection algorithm. Compared with the common-used selection algorithms in the state of the art, the proposed scheme can achieve the best performance, which is validated by numerical simulations.

This paper studies interconnection of DCS1800 and GSM900 dual-band networks. Two types of interconnection config-urations for GSM services, non-overlap and overlap, are described. We propose analytic and simulation models to investigate the ben-efit of the overlap configuration. Our results explain how the radio channel capacities, the inter-system handoff failure rate, the origi-nating call traffic ratio and the offered loads affect the system per-formance. This study indicates that with appropriate overlap con-figuration, the GSM dual-band network can significantly improve the quality of cellular service.

In this paper, a $320{\times}240$ pixel, 80 frame/s CMOS image sensor with a low power dual correlated double sampling (CDS) scheme is presented. A novel 8-bit hold-and-go counter in each column is proposed to obtain 10-bit resolution. Furthermore, dual CDS and a configurable counter scheme are also discussed to realize efficient power reduction. With these techniques, the digital counter consumes at least 43% and at most 61% less power compared with the column-counters type, and the frame rate is approximately 40% faster than the double memory type due to a partial pipeline structure without additional memories. The prototype sensor was fabricated in a Samsung $0.13{\mu}m$ 1P4M CMOS process and used a 4T APS with a pixel pitch of $2.25{\mu}m$. The measured column fixed pattern noise (FPN) is 0.10 LSB.

The effects of hydrogen ($H_2$) ratio on combustion and emission characteristics in a $H_2/diesel$ dual-fuel engine were investigated. Dual-fuel strategy was applied to improve the control of combustion phasing. The combustion phasing was retarded with increasing $H_2$ fraction. This can be explained by both reduced diesel concentration and chemical effect of $H_2$, which reduce the heat release rate during the low temperature reaction stage. Hydrocarbon and carbon monoxide emissions of the engine were decreased drastically when $H_2$ ratio was increased.

The present study describes the characteristics of combustion and exhaust emissions in compression ignition engines using diesel-gasoline dual fuel. For investigating combustion characteristics, diesel fuel was injected directly in a single-cylinder compression ignition engine with a common-rail injection system and gasoline fuel was injected into a premixed chamber installed in an intake port. In order to investigate exhaust emission characteristics, exhaust gas was measured by emission analyzer and smoke meter. The experimental results showed that cases of diesel-gasoline dual fuel combustion exhibited extended ignition delay and reduced peak combustion pressure compared to those of directly injected diesel fuel cases. Furthermore, premixed gasoline-air mixture reduced NOx emissions due to low peak of rate of heat release(ROHR).

Preliminary results are reported on ship detection using coherence images computed from crosscorrelating images of multi-look-processed dual-polarization data (HH and HV) of ENVISAT ASAR. The traditional techniques of ship detection by radars such as CFAR (Constant False Alarm Rate) rely on the amplitude data, and therefore the detection tends to become difficult when the amplitudes of ships images are at similar level as the mean amplitude of surrounding sea clutter. The proposed method utilizes the property that the multi-look images of ships are correlated with each other. Because the inter-look images of sea surface are covered by uncorrelated speckle, crosscorrelation of multi-look images yields the different degrees of coherence between the images and water. The polarimetric information of ships, land and intertidal zone are first compared based on the cross-correlation between HH and HV. In the next step, we examine the technique when the dual-polarization data are split into two multi-look images.

Multi-hop system has advantage of low power consumption, improved cell capacity, and enlarged service coverage. Most of previous researches show that multi-hop relaying beyond dual-hop relaying does not improve system performance significantly. This leads most researches are focused on dual-hop relaying system. In this paper, we propose an optimal boundary condition to support maximal data rate for fluctuation of traffic load in single cell dual-hop relay system.

Driving is a complex psychomotor task often interrupted by secondary activities that increase cognitive workload and divert attention away from the roadway. The risk of inattentive driving is known to vary with age. To assess the characteristics of advancing age on driver's cognitive workload under dual task condition, we evaluate the performance of 96 drivers divided into three age groups: 20's, 40's, and 60's. This study considers driver's cognitive workload in the context of urban and highway driving. Error rate & Dual task cost are used to measure driver's cognitive workload. Results indicate that age impacts cognitive workload during dual task driving conditions.

A new method, so called MMA(Method of Moving Asymptotes) was applied to the optimization problems of non-linear functions and non-linear structures. In each step of the iterative process, tile MMA generates a strictly convex approximation subproblems and solves them by using the dual problems. The generation of these subproblems is controlled by so called 'moving asymptotes', which may both make no oscillation and speed up tile convergence rate of optimization process. By contrast in generalized dual function, the generated function by MMA is always explicit type. Both the objective and behaviour constraints which were approximated are optimized by dual function. As the results of some examples, it was found that this method is very effective to obtain the global solution for problems with many local solutions. Also it was found that MMA is a very effective approximate method using the original function and its 1st derivatives.

본 논문은 기존 블라인드 등화기의 성능인 수렴 특성과 잔류 부호간 간섭의 영향을 경감시키기 위해 축소 신호점을 사용하고 비용 함수를 실수부와 허수부로 분리하여 처리하는 한 이중 구조 CR-CMA(Constellation Reduction CMA)에 관한 것이다. 기존의 CMA는 진폭만을 보상하고 위상은 보상을 하지 못하며, 이를 해결하기 위해 MCMA(Modified CMA)는 비용 함수만을 실수부와 허수부를 따로 처리하여 진폭과 위상을 보상하지만 진폭의 보상 능력과 초기 수렴 속도에서는 CMA보다 성능이 열악해지는 문제점이 있다. 제안하는 이중 구조 CR-CMA는 CMA와 MCMA(Modified CMA) 알고리즘 장점만을 살릴 수 있도록 비용 함수와 오차 함수를 실수부와 허수부로 나누어 처리하고 축소 신호점을 적용할 수 있도록 개량하여 진폭과 위상의 보상, 빠른 수렴 속도 및 잔류 ISI와 MD(Maximum Distortion) 량의 감소 그리고 MSE(Mean Square Error)와 양호한 심볼 오류율 (SER : symbol error ratio) 특성을 얻을 수 있음을 컴퓨터 시뮬레이션으로 확인하였다.
