The size of these switching structures is limited by many phenomena, including phase noise generated by SOAs, which can be a serious drawback if coherent modulation schemes are used in the network. This paper examines this problem, for a DPSK direct detection system. It is found that there is an optimum level for the switch input power, and the phase noise limits the number of 2/spl times/2 switches, which can be cascaded, to about 200, for a bit rate in the gigabit/s range.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131795508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These series are then used to assess the capacity of the systems at different levels of synchronization errors. The derivations are performed for both constant and random synchronization errors. Using the series, the asynchronous quadriphase spread system capacity is compared to that of an asynchronous binary spread system.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"53 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113990259","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This problem of separating and estimating co-channel signals has recently drawn much attention due to its applications in digital mobile radio. First, we propose a spatio-temporal approach for estimating both the channel and the signals in a delay-spread multipath fading environment. In this approach we exploit the discrete-alphabet property of some of the digital modulation schemes in this algorithm. This algorithm is applicable to an unknown array geometry and propagation environment, and hence it is especially attractive to digital mobile communication applications. Next we examine the matched filter bound for this channel environment. We obtain closed form expressions for the matched filter bound for the single user vector channel. Finally we present some preliminary simulation results to examine the performance of this algorithm and compare it to the single user matched filter bound.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115060956","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We point out the inappropriateness of the balanced system assumption for systems that employ directive antennas.

In SECMSVQ, the rate constraint at each stage of the vector quantizer (VQ), and the storage size of the whole VQ are specified independently before the design. A dynamic programming technique is then used to allocate the storage size to each stage of the VQ optimally so that the quantization distortion of the VQ is minimized. The SECMSVQ, in addition to being able to control the rate and storage size independently, has the property of progressive image transmission (PIT). Simulation results show that SECMSVQ can be used effectively to implement both the signal compression systems and PIT systems.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116735920","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The investigation is done by means of simulations, and the results are encouraging in the sense that the nonlinear channel poses no special difficulties for the scheme. At the optimal working point (saturation), the loss with respect to the linear channel is approximately 1 dB at BER=1.0e-3 and BER=1.0e-4, whereas the gain which is achieved by increasing the size of the decision vector is the same for the linear and the nonlinear channels.","PeriodicalId":152724,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of GLOBECOM '95","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116856410","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
