This document discusses RAKE receivers for interference reduction in mobile communication. It begins with an introduction to RAKE receivers and discusses how they help mitigate issues like multipath fading and co-channel interference. It then provides details on the overall structure of a RAKE receiver, describing how it uses multiple "fingers" to combine signals from different propagation paths constructively. The document also discusses how RAKE receivers are used in wireless standards like WCDMA and how techniques like sorted QR decomposition can help improve their performance. It concludes by stating that systems based on sorted QR decomposition can help reduce multipath fading and increase signal quality.
RF testing has remained hype for most of us. But seriously it is not so. It can be very interesting and one can develop a lot of interest in this if given an opportunity.
In this paper, authors have started with the some basic concepts of radio engineering which we studied in engineering and built upon these concepts to use in practical applications.
We have also described the basic principles of Signal Analyzer and Signal Generator which are the most common test tools used for any radio testing.
The document discusses the Rake receiver, which is used to counter the effects of multipath fading in wireless communications. It works by using multiple "fingers" to collect different time-shifted versions of the original signal transmitted over multiple paths. Each finger correlates and extracts one of the multipath components. The outputs are then weighted and combined to provide a better estimate of the transmitted signal. This allows the Rake receiver to equalize the effects of multipath and improve the signal-to-noise ratio. While useful for CDMA, W-CDMA and other technologies, Rake receivers are also more complex and expensive than conventional receivers.

Performance Evaluation of Iterative Receiver using 16-QAM and 16-PSK Modulati...IRJET Journal
ย
This document presents a study evaluating the performance of an iterative receiver for Flip-OFDM modulation using 16-QAM and 16-PSK modulation schemes in optical wireless communication (OWC) systems. The proposed iterative receiver is compared to a conventional receiver that directly subtracts the negative signal frame from the positive frame. Simulation results show that the iterative receiver provides significantly lower bit error rates than the conventional receiver for both modulation schemes. Specifically, the improvement in bit error rate is larger at lower signal-to-noise ratios. The study thus demonstrates that the iterative receiver fully exploits the signal structure to improve performance over the conventional approach in Flip-OFDM for OWC.

LTE carrier aggregation technology development and deployment worldwidecriterion123
ย
Carrier aggregation (CA) allows the combination of multiple component carriers to increase bandwidth and throughput. CA can be intra-band, combining contiguous or non-contiguous carriers within a band, or inter-band, combining carriers across frequency bands. Inter-band CA provides more flexibility to utilize fragmented spectrum. The LTE standard defines a maximum of five component carriers for CA. CA improves downlink throughput by increasing bandwidth but may not always increase uplink throughput due to limitations of UE maximum power. Close frequency band CA and FDD-TDD CA require additional RF components to separate signal paths and prevent interference between bands.

Error Rate Analysis of MIMO System Using V Blast Detection Technique in Fadin...IJERA Editor
ย
Wireless communication system with multi- antenna arrays has been a field of intensive analysis on the last years. The appliance of multiple sending antennas and Receiving Antennas either side will considerably enhance the data rate and rate. The review of the performance limitations of MIMO system becomes vital since it will provide lot ideas in understanding and planning the important life MIMO systems. Vertical Bell Laboratories layered space Time (V-BLAST). The thought behind Multiple Input and Multiple Output system is that the signals on the transmitter antennas at one finish and also the receiver antennas at the opposite finish are correlative in such how that the performance (Bit Error Rate or BER) or the info rate (bits/sec) of the wireless communication system for every MIMO subscriber are improved. During this paper we tend to are proposing a technique that evaluates the performance of V-BLAST MIMO system in several thought of Rayleigh attenuation surroundings to urge higher performance of the system. In V- BLAST MIMO system a number of linear detection techniques will be used for interference cancellation. At this point we are using MMSE-IC for the same. Our expected system provide higher error rate performance with the used of matched filter at receiver aspect .The projected system compared within the presence of AWGN. Now matched filter applied on V- BLAST MIMO with MMSE-IC system in fading diversity surroundings.
One of the main challenges faced by the developing (3GPP-LTE-Advanced) standard is providing high throughput at the cell edge.
One solution to improve coverage is the use of fixed relays.

Simulation of Wimax 802.16E Physical LayermodelIOSR Journals
ย
This document summarizes a simulation of the physical layer of WiMAX 802.16e. It describes the design of a WiMAX PHY layer transmitter and receiver model using MATLAB. The model uses 16-QAM modulation over OFDM with 256 subcarriers. Performance is analyzed by transmitting data over AWGN and Rayleigh fading channels and measuring bit loss and packet loss versus SNR and signal power. The results show that bit loss decreases with increasing SNR and decreasing signal power. A combination of SNR=13dB and signal power of 0.6W provided zero bit loss.
A Novel Configuration of a Microstrip Microwave Wideband Power Amplifier for ...TELKOMNIKA JOURNAL

RF/microwave power amplifier (PA) is one of the components that has a large effect on the
overall performance of communication system especially in transmitter system and their design is decided
by the parameters of transistor selected. This letter presents a new concept of a wide-band microwave
amplifier using scattering parameters that is often used in the radio frequency communication systemas an
application of the active integrated antenna[1- 2]. This power amplifier operates from 1.75 GHz to 2.15GHz
frequency and it is based on AT-41410 NPN transistor that has a high transition frequency of 10GHz. The
proposed Single Stage PA is designed by microstrip technology and simulated with Advanced Design
System (ADS) software. The simulation results indicate good performances; the small power gain (S21) is
changed between 11.8 and 10dB. For the input reflection coefficient (S11) is varied between -11 and -
22.5dB. Regarding the output reflection coefficient (S22) is varied between -13.1 and -18.7dB over the
wide frequency band of 1.75-2.15GHz and stability without oscillating over a wide range of frequencies.

Design of 10 to 12 GHz Low Noise Amplifier for Ultrawideband (UWB) SystemIJECEIAES
ย
Balanced amplifier is the structure proposed in this article, it provides better performance. In fact, the single amplifier meets the specification for noise figure and gain but fails to meet the return loss specification due to the large mis-matches on the input & outputs. To overcome this problem one solution is to use balanced amplifier topography. In this paper, a wide-band and highgain microwave balanced amplifier constituted with branch line coupler circuit is proposed. The amplifier is unconditionally stable in the band [9-13] GHz where the gain is about 20dB. The input reflection (S11) and output return loss (S22) at 11 GHz are -33.4dB and -33.5dB respectively.

Abstract (11Bold) : โ In this report, the performance analysis of 64 QAM-OFDM wireless communication
systems affected by AWGN in terms of Symbol Error Rate and Throughput is addressed. 64 QAM (64 ary
Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) is the one of the effective digital modulation technique as it is more power
efficient for larger values of M(64). The MATLAB script based model of the 64 QAM-OFDM system with
normal AWGN channel and Rayleigh fading channel has been made for study error performance and
throughput under different channel conditions. This simulated model maximizes the system throughput in the
presence of narrowband interference, while guaranteeing a SER below a predefined threshold. The SER
calculation is accomplished by means of modelling the decision variable at the receiver as a particular case of
quadratic form D in complex Gaussian random variables. Lastly comparative study of SER performance of 64

This document summarizes research on the design of octagon shaped slot loaded rectangular microstrip monopole antennas. The antennas are designed to operate across multiple frequency bands from 1-16 GHz and provide virtual size reduction. Experimental results show the proposed antenna operates over 8 bands with a maximum virtual size reduction of 62%. Modifying the antenna design by changing the radius of a circular slot inside the octagon allows operation over 5 bands while further increasing bandwidth and gain. The antennas demonstrate omnidirectional radiation patterns and have potential applications in microwave communication systems.

Climate change's impact on the planet forced the United Nations and governments to promote green energies and electric transportation. The deployments of photovoltaic (PV) and electric vehicle (EV) systems gained stronger momentum due to their numerous advantages over fossil fuel types. The advantages go beyond sustainability to reach financial support and stability. The work in this paper introduces the hybrid system between PV and EV to support industrial and commercial plants. This paper covers the theoretical framework of the proposed hybrid system including the required equation to complete the cost analysis when PV and EV are present. In addition, the proposed design diagram which sets the priorities and requirements of the system is presented. The proposed approach allows setup to advance their power stability, especially during power outages. The presented information supports researchers and plant owners to complete the necessary analysis while promoting the deployment of clean energy. The result of a case study that represents a dairy milk farmer supports the theoretical works and highlights its advanced benefits to existing plants. The short return on investment of the proposed approach supports the paper's novelty approach for the sustainable electrical system. In addition, the proposed system allows for an isolated power setup without the need for a transmission line which enhances the safety of the electrical network

ย
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics systemโs higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.

๏ Speech Coding;

is useful to a human listener is
retained as shown in Fig 8.61.
๏ In this section we describe two

๏ This form of Speech Coding
exploits the Principle of Analysis
by โSynthesisโ that means,
๏ง The Encoder includes a

๏ The Encoder Consists of three
parts as shown in Fig 8.62;

๏ง The Excitation consists of a
definite number of Pulses.
III. Error Minimization;

10 to 30 ms.
2) Computing the Optimum Excitation
for the Synthesis Filter by minimizing
the Error with the Closed Loop.
