It is shown that under bandwidth and throughput constraints OPPM, with two pulse positions per pulsewidth, outperforms PPM when the overlap is chosen properly and the throughput is greater than 0.2 nats/slot. This makes it possible to increase the throughput and/or decrease the energy of the OPPM system, while maintaining the same performance as PPM. The energy saving when using OPPM instead of PPM to transmit reliably a given amount of information is determined for different values of overlapping indices. The maximum throughput that can be achieved under average power and bandwidth constraints (with error probability not exceeding 10/sup -5/) is also determined.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169378,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICC '93 - IEEE International Conference on Communications","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124946387","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 dedicated downstream 1.5-Mb/s signal is sufficient for MPEG-1 or VCR-quality compressed video. In addition to a 1.5-Mb/s signal, a bidirectional low-speed control channel is required (e.g., for channel selection or interactive video). The emphasis is on the evolution of loop access systems originally installed for POTS (plain old telephone service) Consequently, both the high-speed data and control signals must be added in a manner consistent with the simultaneous provision of POTS over an existing installed infrastructure. In addition to exploring a class of technology options, the associated incremental increase in the installed first cost is determined.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169378,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICC '93 - IEEE International Conference on Communications","volume":"449 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125797775","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 problem is cast in a mathematical framework of parameter estimation for a vector stationary process with a single input (information sequence) and multiple outputs, by using a time-series representation of a cyclostationary process. The channel parameters are estimated by nonlinear batch optimization of a quadratic cumulant matching criterion involving second and fourth order cumulants of the received data. A new algorithm is proposed for (asymptotically) globally convergent, linear estimation of the FIR channel parameters where the FIR model order is not necessarily known. A simulation example using QAM (quadrature amplitude modulation) signals is presented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169378,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICC '93 - IEEE International Conference on Communications","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125568326","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}

Both finite input and output buffering, as well as speedup, are employed to reduce the loss, which is critical in a satellite application. In order to improve the performance of the two lowest-priority users, a head of line resolution (HLR) technique is implemented. It is shown that, with HLR and the proper adjustment of the switch speedup and the input and output buffers, the loss can be substantially reduced. It is also shown that the dependence on the switch size which is characteristic of the unbuffered discard case is substantially reduced, even in a prioritized environment. This allows larger switches to be implemented.<<ETX>>","PeriodicalId":169378,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of ICC '93 - IEEE International Conference on Communications","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-05-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126660938","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}
