The study of signals and systems makes a study field very important for Engineering. It’s through this kind of study that it’s possible to model, represent, study and understand various phenomena that occurs in peoples ...

In digital communication systems the use of filters that fulfill the first Nyquist criterion (Nyquist-I), guarantees that a sequence of pulses will not be affected by inter-symbol interference (ISI) if the receiver ...

One of the most relevant feature of geophysical techniques based on nuclear magnetic resonance is their ability to estimate the permeability of natural porous media, since other geophysical techniques, as the use of the ...

This paper studies distributed binary test of statistical independence under communication (information bits) constraints. While testing independence is very relevant in various applications, distributed independence test ...

This paper proposes a new identification method based on an exponential modulation scheme for the determination of the coefficients and exponents of a fractional-order transfer function. The proposed approach has a broader ...

The continuous creation of digital video has caused an exponential growth of digital video content. To increase the usability of such large volume of videos, a lot of research has been made. Video summarization has been ...

The ability to transmit and amplify weak signals is fundamental to signal processing of artificial devices in engineering. Using a multilayer feedforward network of coupled double-well oscillators as well as Fitzhugh-Nagumo ...

We generalize somewidely usedmotherwavelets by means of the q-exponential function ex q ≡ [1 + (1 − q)x]1/(1−q) q ∈ R, ex1 = ex that emerges from nonextensive statistical mechanics. In particular, we define extended versions ...

This paper presents a experimentally-validated fractal time thermal model to describe the discharge and cooling down processes of air-cooled cylindrical Lithium-ion cells. Three cases were studied, a spatially isolated ...
