The prefilter bandwidth is changed between three discrete values, namely B1=∞, B2=2.tx and B3=1.tx, where tx is the bit rate. The synchronizers distinguish 2 variants, one asynchronous by both transitions at rate and other asynchronous by positive transitions at half rate. Each variant has two versions which are the manual and the automatic. The objective is to study the three prefilter bandwidths with the four synchronizers and to evaluate their output jitter UIRMS (Unit Interval Root Mean Square) as function of the input SNR (Signal Noise Ratio).","PeriodicalId":222283,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Communication Systems, Networks and Digital Signal Processing","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128857567","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}

It came to the world of the packet switching networks rather late and still has not become a fist class citizen of the Internet, yet the demand for such services is growing and thus the relevant technologies evolve persistently providing increasing quality and availability of the means of the group communication. The overlay approach to the multicast is an application layer realization which came to life due to certain deficiencies at the lower layers. In general the gain from using multicast for group communication instead of duplicated unicast links is that we avoid sending the same data many times through a single link. Such gain may be achieved wit the use of the router level mulitcast solution. The overlay solutions tend to approach his level of efficiency with a different degree of success. Therefore one of the main characteristics that is interesting when evaluating a particular overlay protocol is how well does it achieve the aforementioned gain. There are several metrics that allow for objective comparison of protocols in this regard. However this is not the only point of view to provide a valuable evaluation of the multicast overlay solutions. One of the important aspects of the modern group communication such as the IPTV or teleconferencing is the dynamic nature of the users’ participation. A particular group may be joined and left by multiple users at a very frequent rate which is critical to the resources management as well as to maintaining the integrity of the abstract communication structure, e.g. a tree spanning all the participants. In such case two major classes of the evaluation criteria emerge: the statical and the dynamical ones. They’re both very important and interdependent, however the means to measure them may differ significantly. In this article a wide variety of the multicast overlay protocols have been analysed and two of them have been chosen to be compared. The stress of the evaluation has been put on the dynamic aspects of the multicast overlay protocols operation.","PeriodicalId":222283,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Communication Systems, Networks and Digital Signal Processing","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128780068","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}

Different blocs of ECDSA are implemented on a reconfigurable hardware platform (Xilinx xc6vlx760-2ff1760). We used the hardware description language VHDL (VHSIC Hardware Description Language) for compartmental validation. The design requires 0.2 ms, 0.8 ms and 0.4 ms with 7 %, 13 % and 5 % of the device resources on Slice LUT for respectively key generation, signature generation and signature verification. The proposed ECDSA implementation is suitable to the applications that need: low-bandwidth communication, low-storage and low-computation environments. In particular our implementation is suitable to smart cards and wireless devices.","PeriodicalId":222283,"journal":{"name":"International Symposium on Communication Systems, Networks and Digital Signal Processing","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123755777","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}

Intelligent reflective surfaces (IRSs) that can reconFigure their reflection properties and electromagnetic absorption in real-time offer unparalleled opportunities to improve the wireless communication experience in difficult environments.

The AFE is stimulation using a 0.18μm CMOS process. In order to avoid off-chip noise interference, the TIA and LA are dc-coupled on the chip instead of ac-coupled though a large external capacitor. An isolation structure combined with P+ guard-ring (PGR), N+ guard-ring (NGR), and deep-n-well (DNW) for parallel amplifiers is employed to reduce the crosstalk and suppress the substrate noise coupling effectively. The tiny photo current received by the receiver AFE is amplified to voltage swing of 400. The results indicate that, with a photodiode parasitic capacitance of 500fF. Post-layout simulations demonstrate that a single channel optical receiver front-end amplifier achieves conversion gain of 91.6 dB and -3 dB bandwidth of 8.7 GHz.
