Proposed equalizers for the compensation of these nonlinear distortions are mainly based on the Volterra series expansion, which is an elegant but very complex model. This paper presents a new decision feedback equalizer (DFE) which is composed only of linear filters and multipliers. Hence, the complexity of this still very general structure is comparable to linear filtering. Simulations show that the proposed DFE outperforms the conventional DFE and the Volterra DFE with a comparable complexity.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129309719","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}

In our proposed method, we use an efficient least-mean-square-based adaptive algorithm to optimize the parameter, which minimizes the cost function, instead of using the nonlinear programming technique.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"100 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127139126","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}

Many of the recently proposed approaches make use of the block motion compensation (BMC) approach for compression. In this paper we propose a multiframe extension to BMC coding. The multiframe BMC (MF-BMC) coder makes use of the redundancy that exists across multiple frames in typical video-conferencing sequences to achieve additional compression over that obtained by using the single frame BMC (SF-BMC) approach, such as the base level H.263 codec. The advantage of the MF-BMC approach is that it is more robust to error propagation when compared to the traditional SF-BMC, as it makes use of information from multiple frames. The MF-BMC coder proposed in this paper is a multiframe extension of the base level H.263 coder and is found to be more robust than the base level H.263 coder when subjected to simulated errors commonly encountered on wireless channels.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131051456","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}

Further we investigate multiplication schemes using such counters, in combination with Kautz's (1961) networks for symmetric Boolean functions. Using a 32/spl times/32 direct multiplication scheme based on 7|2 implicit output computation counters and the Kautz's networks we show that our scheme outperforms in terms of area requirements known proposals for multiplications using threshold logic.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"48 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126950994","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}

In this paper we derive a continuous wavelet domain EC processor for the detection of signals that have propagated over stochastic propagation and scattering channels. The derivation shows that the wavelet transforms that are used for the conditional mean estimator (CME) and for the computation of the detection statistic must be defined by using reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) inner products rather than ordinary Hilbert space inner products. This fact suggests new weighted wavelet (as well as other time-frequency and time-scale) transforms. These new transforms have many applications to optimum signal processing.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"7 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131317919","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}

There are differences between radar and sonar mainly stemming from the much slower speed of sound propagation in water compared with that of electromagnetic propagation in air. Of all the strip-map algorithms in use, the wavenumber algorithm appears to be the most general to both radar and sonar as it has fewer approximations and lends itself to an efficient description using a new mathematical convention which we call mapping operators. We show how these mapping operators might be used to form SAR/SAS image reconstruction algorithms for both strip-map and spotlight synthetic aperture imaging systems.","PeriodicalId":270729,"journal":{"name":"Conference Record of The Thirtieth Asilomar Conference on Signals, Systems and Computers","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128846368","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}
