Uplink DPCCH Gating of Inactive UEs in Continuous Packet Connectivity Mode for HSUPA
2007
In order to further improve the packet performance in the UMTS FDD system, uplink dedicated physical control channel (DPCCH) gating as a scheme is proposed in 3GPP under the work item "continuous connectivity for packet data users". In this paper, the uplink DPCCH gating concept is described and analyzed on both a qualitative and a quantitative level. And the system performance of different gating patterns used in the scheme was investigated by analytical prediction and system level simulations with different channel profiles. As shown, the selection of the gating pattern has a significant influence on the system performance, which is correlated with the uplink data transmission activity an…
Dynamic Flow-Adaptive Spectrum Leasing with Channel Aggregation in Cognitive Radio Networks.
2020
Cognitive radio networks (CRNs), which allow secondary users (SUs) to dynamically access a network without affecting the primary users (PUs), have been widely regarded as an effective approach to mitigate the shortage of spectrum resources and the inefficiency of spectrum utilization. However, the SUs suffer from frequent spectrum handoffs and transmission limitations. In this paper, considering the quality of service (QoS) requirements of PUs and SUs, we propose a novel dynamic flow-adaptive spectrum leasing with channel aggregation. Specifically, we design an adaptive leasing algorithm, which adaptively adjusts the portion of leased channels based on the number of ongoing and buffered PU …
Thermal gating of magnon exchange in magnetic multilayers with antiferromagnetic spacers
2020
We observe a strong thermally-controlled magnon-mediated interlayer coupling of two ferromagnetic layers via an antiferromagnetic spacer in spin-valve type trilayers. The effect manifests itself as a field-induced coherent switching of the two ferromagnets, which can be controlled by varying temperature and the spacer thickness. We explain the observed behavior as due to a strong hybridization of the ferro- and antiferro-magnetic magnon modes in the trilayer at temperatures just below the N\'eel temperature of the antiferromagnetic spacer.
Hamiltonian tools for the analysis of optical polarization control
2011
Import JabRef; International audience; The study of the polarization dynamics of two counterpropagating beams in optical fibers has recently been the subject of a growing renewed interest, from both the theoretical and experimental points of view. This system exhibits a phenomenon of polarization attraction, which can be used to achieve a complete polarization of an initially unpolarized signal beam, almost without any loss of energy. Along the same way, an arbitrary polarization state of the signal beam can be controlled and converted into any other desired state of polarization, by adjusting the polarization state of the counterpropagating pump beam. These properties have been demonstrate…
Mechanically Activated SHS Reaction in the Fe-Al System: In Situ Time Resolved Diffraction Using Synchrotron Radiation
1998
The Mechanical Activation Self propagating High temperature Synthesis (M.A.S.H.S.) processing is a new way to produce nanocrystalline iron aluminide intermetallic compounds. This process is maily the combination of two steps ; in the one hand, a mechanical activation where the Fe - Al powder mixture was milled during a short time at given energy and frequency of shocks and in the other hand, a Self propagating High temperature Synthesis (S.H.S.) reaction, for which the exothermicity of the Fe + Al reaction is used. This fast propagated MASHS reaction has been in -situ investigated using the Time Resolved X - Ray Diffraction (TRXRD) using a X - ray synchrotron beam and an infrared thermograp…
Enhancement of self-sustaining reaction by mechanical activation: case of an FeSi system
1999
Mechanical high energy ball milling of an Fe2Si elemental powders mixture was used to activate a self sustaining combustion reaction or so-called self-propagating high-temperature synthesis (SHS) to form iron disilicide, a reaction for which the thermodynamic criterion is not favorable. A complete characterization of the milled powders before reaction was performed with energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry, specific surface measurements and X-ray diffraction profile analysis. Thermal and structural information describing the combustion front initiated by heating up a sample to 400°C in a Fe‐Si system is communicated. In order to isolate the phases involved in the gasless reaction, a time-re…
In situ synchrotron characterization of mechanically activated self-propagating high-temperature synthesis applied in Mo–Si system
1999
Abstract An original experiment was designed to monitor structural and thermal evolutions during the MASHS (Mechanically Activated Self-propagating High-temperature Synthesis) process in the Mo–Si system. Time-Resolved X-Ray Diffraction (TRXRD) coupled with an infrared imaging technique was performed to study, in situ, the formation of the α-MoSi2 phase in the combustion front. Despite a temporal resolution of 50 ms between two consecutive diffractograms, no intermediate phase was observed during the passage of the combustion front. The only reaction responsible for the self-sustentation is Mo+2Si→MoSi2 in the primary zone inside the combustion wave. The mechanical activation was found to i…
Simultaneous IR and time-resolved X-ray diffraction measurements for studying self-sustained reactions.
1998
Self-propagating high-temperature synthesis provides an attractive practical method for producing advanced materials such as ceramics, composites and intermetallics. This kind of reaction has been investigated in situ using time-resolved X-ray diffraction, with an X-ray synchrotron beam (D43 beamline, LURE, Orsay) coupled to simultaneous IR thermography to study structural transformations and thermal evolution. With short acquisition times (30 ms per pattern) it has been possible to observe several steps before obtaining compounds. Two different compound formations have been described: (i) the different steps of reaction, aluminium melting, subsequent temperature increase and fast reaction …
A comparative assessment of the accuracy of electronic apex locator (Root ZX) in the presence of commonly used irrigating solutions
2013
Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the accuracy of Root ZX in determining working length in presence of normal saline, 0.2% chlorhexidine and 2.5% of sodium hypochlorite. Material and Methods: Sixty extracted, single rooted, single canal human teeth were used. Teeth were decoronated at CEJ and actual canal length determined. Then working length measurements were obtained with Root ZX in presence of normal saline 0.9%, 0.2% chlorhexidine and 2.5% NaOCl. The working length obtained with Root ZX were compared with actual canal length and subjected to statistical analysis. Results: No statistical significant difference was found between actual canal length and Root ZX measurements in pres…
γ2-Adaptin, a Ubiquitin-interacting Adaptor, Is a Substrate to Coupled Ubiquitination by the Ubiquitin Ligase Nedd4 and Functions in the Endosomal Pa…
2008
gamma2-Adaptin is a putative member of the clathrin adaptor protein family with unknown physiological function. We previously reported that gamma2-adaptin acts as a ubiquitin receptor by virtue of its ubiquitin-interacting motif. Here we demonstrate that this motif mediates a specific physical interaction with the ubiquitin ligase Nedd4 and promotes ubiquitination of gamma2-adaptin. By mapping regions of Nedd4 involved in binding to gamma2-adaptin, we identified its C2 domain to be essential, whereas the WW and HECT domains are dispensable. Consistent with this, we uncovered that the C2 domain of Nedd4 is ubiquitinated itself and as such is recruited by the ubiquitin-interacting motif of ga…
