We extend the single source speech distortion weighted multichannel Wiener filter (SDW-MWF) to deal with multiple speakers. The mean squared error (MSE) is extended by introducing P weights, each controlling the distortion of one of the sources. The P weights enable further control in the design of the beamformer (BF). Two special cases of the proposed BF are the SDW-MWF and the linearly constrained minimum variance (LCMV)-BF. We provide a theoretical analysis for the performance of the proposed BF. Finally, we exemplify the ability of the proposed method to control the tradeoff between noise reduction (NR) and distortion levels of various speakers in an experimental study.","PeriodicalId":177385,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 27th Convention of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in Israel","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128748548","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}

At the high frequencies the array performance is limited by spatial aliasing. In this paper we present a method to extend the bandwidth of the array through optimal aliasing cancellation. The advantage and novelty of the proposed method is that aliasing cancellation is achieved through signal processing without physically modifying configuration of the spherical microphone array. In this work we show that by taking into account the expected aliasing pattern with respect to the given array sampling scheme, a beamformer which suppresses the grating-lobes can be designed. This beamformer achieves a higher directivity-index at frequencies previously considered as out of the microphone array operating range, therefore increasing the overall frequency range of operation. A simulation example with a 32 elements spherical microphone array illustrate the proposed method.","PeriodicalId":177385,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 27th Convention of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in Israel","volume":"16 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133681194","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}

Broadcast MIMO techniques can signifcantly increase the capacity in the downlink of cellular networks, at the price of channel state information (CSI) feedback from the mobiles. Thus, it creates a mechanism that can tradeoff uplink rate to downlink rate. In this work we quantify this tradeoff between the feedback rate (over the uplink) and the downlink rate. We show that uplink rate can be exchanged to downlink rate with a constant exchange ratio. This exchange ratio is an increasing function of the channel coherence time, and a decreasing function of the number of measured BSs. We also show that devoting a constant ratio of the uplink to CSI feedback can increase the downlink multiplexing gain continuously from 0 to 1. This capability to control the balance between the uplink and downlink rates is very important in cellular networks, where the operators need to respond to continuously changing user demands.","PeriodicalId":177385,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 27th Convention of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in Israel","volume":"60 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116788749","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 buildings' density and height in such environments block the signals from many of the satellites. In this work, we present a novel yet simple approach for tackling this accuracy problem. The novelty of the suggested method lies in analyzing insufficient LOS to satellites and improving the estimated location using few shadow matching methods. Given an estimated location of the GNSS device and given the satellite signal-strength, the algorithm calculates in real-time invalid points inside the ROI (Region Of Interest). This approach reduces the ROI to a fraction of its original size. Using both simulation and field experiment we have shown that the suggested method can improve existing GNSS devices accuracy in urban canyons. Moreover, in urban regions with accurate 3D building map the positioning accuracy might break the 1 meter accuracy bound.","PeriodicalId":177385,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 27th Convention of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in Israel","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131881888","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 energies are typically computed as the integral of electrical pulses generated the interaction of Gamma photons with a known semiconductor detector. Due to the finite resolution of the detector, close electrical pulses tend to overlap; this phenomenon, known by the practitioner as pileup effect, yields a severe distortion of the energy spectrum. We present in this contribution a method for pileup attenuation, in order to correct the main distortions caused by the pileup effect. This method can be decomposed in two steps. First, we compute a sparse representation of the signal by means of LASSO in order to estimate the arrival times of each individual electrical pulse and the radioactive source activity. The second step consists in estimating the pulse individual energies by means of another iteration of LASSO, with a smaller value of its sparsity parameter, and plug the obtained values into a standard nonparametric kernel estimator to obtain a corrected energy spectrum. We illustrate the performances of the suggested approach on signals stemming from a High Purity Germanium detector, with a medium activity.","PeriodicalId":177385,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 27th Convention of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in Israel","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133393609","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}

Using columnar thin film (CTF) as the transducer layer in SPR sensors enhances both the angular and spectral sensitivity of the sensor. Sculptured thin films (STFs) made of different materials, shapes, sizes, orientations, porosities, and deposited on different substrates were examined as SEF and SERS detection platforms. The optimal features of STFs were examined to obtain the highest enhancement of SERS and SEF. The potential of these films for biosensing and bimolecular detection was demonstrated.

One such natural orthonormal basis is provided by the eigenfunctions of the Laplace-Beltrami operator of a given shape. The coefficients in this case are nothing but the result of the scalar inner product of the coordinates treated as a smooth function on the surface of the shape and the eigenfunctions that form the orthonormal basis. Keeping only the significant coefficients allows for efficient representation of a given shape under practical transformations. Selecting the regular metric for the construction of the Laplace-Beltrami operator we notice that while the general shape is preserved, important fine details are often washed out. At the other end, using a scale invariant metric for defining the operator and the corresponding basis, preserves the fine details at the potential expense of loosing the general structure of the shape. Here, we adopt the best of both worlds. By finding the right mix between scale invariant and a regular one we select the metric that serves as the best representation-basis generator for a given shape. We use the mean square error (MSE) to select the optimal space for shape representation, and compare the results to classical spectral shape representation techniques.","PeriodicalId":177385,"journal":{"name":"2012 IEEE 27th Convention of Electrical and Electronics Engineers in Israel","volume":"104 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-12-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127647189","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 goal of our work is to explore VW based methodologies for various mammography classification tasks. We start with the challenge of classifying breast density and then focus on classification of normal tissue versus Microcalcifications.
