The 4.0 kbit/s speech codec described in this paper is based on a
Frequency Domain Interpolative (FDI) coding technique, which
belongs to the class of prototype waveform Interpolation (PWI)
coding techniques. The codec also has an integrated voice
activity detector (VAD) and a noise reduction capabi ...
Communication between various devices makes it possible to pro-
vide unique and innovative services. Although this interdevice com-
munication is a very powerful mechanism, it is also a complex and
clumsy mechanism, leading to a lot of complexity in present day
systems. This not only makes networkin ...
Regardless of the branch of science or engineering, theoreticians have always
been enamored with the notion of expressing their results in the form of
closed-form expressions. Quite often, the elegance of the closed-form solution
is overshadowed by the complexity of its form and the difficulty in ev ...

Complex networks are powerful allies of our quest to tackle complexity in all
of science. Many lines can be written about the benefits of using networks to
study complex systems. Nevertheless, if I had to name their single most appealing
property,Iwouldsaysimplicity.Onecanmaptheinteractingelementsof ...
In order to improve the spectral efficiency in wireless communications, multiple
antennas are employed at both transmitter and receiver sides, where the resulting
system is referred to as the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) system. In
MIMO systems, it is usually requiredto detect signals joint ...
This book is a result of the recent rapid advances in two related technologies: com-
munications and computers. Over the past few decades, communication systems
have increased in complexity to the point where system design and performance
analysis can no longer be conducted without a significant lev ...
The planarization technology of Chemical-Mechanical-Polishing (CMP), used for the manufacturing of multi-
level metal interconnects for high-density Integrated Circuits (IC), is also readily adaptable as an enabling technology
in MicroElectroMechanical Systems (MEMS) fabrication, particularly polysi ...
In this book for the optimisation of assembly conveyor lines we are dealing with series part production
featured by a medium complexity degree and a medium number of individual components and assembly
technique alternatives. Modern production techniques for medium to large series products or mass
pr ...
