A Factor Graph Approach to Digital Self-Interference Mitigation in OFDM Full-Duplex Systems (2017)

Digital self-interference cancellation is a major challenge for orthogonal frequency division multiplexing full-duplex transmissions. Therefore, reliable estimation of both the signal-of-interest and the self-interference channel, becomes the limiting factor in a mobile radio context. In this letter, improved estimation of the time-varying channels is obtained by solving the problem jointly with self-interference cancellation and decoding using a factor graph approach. Taking advantage of the per-subcarrier structure of message-passing, a low-complexity receiver is obtained. Our semianalytical and numerical results show the superiority of the proposed scheme over state-of-the art self-interference cancellation methods under limited pilot overhead.

Design Considerations and Deployment Simulations of Spinning Space Webs (2007)

ESA Advanced Concepts Team (ACT) has proposed to construct large space antennas and solar power systems by deploying and stabilising a large web in space. The idea originates from the Japanese “Furoshiki Satellite”. Since an overly complicated control system contributed to the partly chaotic deployment, ACT suggests to use centrifugal forces to deploy the space web. In this study the design and folding pattern of space webs are discussed. An analytical model and a finite element model used to describe the deployment, from the chosen folding, are presented. Free deployment of space webs is studied and a first control strategy that enables controlled and stable deployment is suggested.
Carrier frequency offset recovery for a zero-IF OFDM receiver (2006)

Zero-IF receivers eliminate the need for costly RF and IF filters and significantly decrease the cost of a receiver. Like IF receivers, direct conversion receivers experience frequency offsets in the down conversion process. This paper proposes a carrier frequency offset recovery algorithm for use with zero-IF OFDM receivers. The algorithm recovers the offset from data modulated carriers without relying on redundant data such as pilots carriers, null carriers, or training sequences. A phase equivalent model for the algorithm is presented, and simulations are employed to verify the concept.
Pharmacokinetic studies of 1.ALPHA.,24(R)-(OH)2D3(TV-02)(4). Plasma level, foeto-placental transfer and excretion into milk after subcutaneous administration to female rats. (1990)

3H-TV-02([1β-3H]-1α, 24(R)-(OH)2D3)was given to non-pregnant, pregnant and lacting rats by a single subcutaneous administration (0.4μg/kg).1. Plasma profiles : Plasma levels of the radioactivity in lipid extracts and unchanged TV-02 reached the maxima after 2hr, then was eliminated in two -phasic fashion. 1α, 24(R)25-(OH)3D3 was detected as a main metabolite in plasma.2. Foeto-placental transfer : The radioactivity in lipid extracts from the fetus on the day 19 was nearly equal to that on the day 14 of gestation.The concentration of radioactivity (lipid extracts) in the fetus was much lo wer than that in maternal plasma or placenta.3. Excretion into milk : The radioactivity was detected in lipid extracts from the milk, and milk/plasma concentration ratios were less than 1 within 8hr.The concentration of unchange TV-02 in the milk was 0.07-0.19 times lower than that in the maternal plasma.
Food antigens drive spontaneous IgE elevation in the absence of commensal microbiota (2019)

Immunoglobulin E (IgE), a key mediator in allergic diseases, is spontaneously elevated in mice with disrupted commensal microbiota such as germ-free (GF) and antibiotics-treated mice. However, the underlying mechanisms for aberrant IgE elevation are still unclear. Here, we demonstrate that food antigens drive spontaneous IgE elevation in GF and antibiotics-treated mice by generating T helper 2 (T<sub>H</sub>2)-skewed T follicular helper (T<sub>FH</sub>) cells in gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALTs). In these mice, depriving contact with food antigens results in defective IgE elevation as well as impaired generation of T<sub>FH</sub> cells and IgE-producing cells in GALT. Food antigen-driven T<sub>FH</sub> cells in GF mice are mostly generated in early life, especially during the weaning period. We also reveal that food antigen-driven T<sub>FH</sub> cells in GF mice are actively depleted by colonization with commensal microbiota. Thus, our findings provide a possible explanation for why the perturbation of commensal microbiota in early life increases the occurrence of allergic diseases.
Inhibitor of nonhomologous end joining can inhibit proliferation of diffuse large B-Cell lymphoma cells and potentiate the effect of ionization radiation (2018)

Aim: Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) is the most common and aggressive type of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma that accounts for ~40% of all lymphomas. DLBCL is considered to be clinically heterogeneous with highest mortality rate. Recent advances in gene expression profiling helped in identifying different subtypes of DLBCL, and since then, many therapeutic options have been explored to treat DLBCL patients. Although it is effective, a significant proportion of the patients suffer due to drug resistance. One of the potential causes for this could be elevated DNA repair in the resistant cancer cells. Thus, the present study is aimed at investigating the potential of SCR7, a DNA repair inhibitor in inducing cytotoxicity on a DLBCL cell line, and to study its ability to potentiate effect when used in combination with ionizing radiation. Materials and Methods: DLBCL cell line, Standford University Diffuse Histiocytic Lymphoma 8 (SUDHL8) was treated with various concentrations of SCR7, a DNA repair inhibitor that targets nonhomologous DNA end joining. While cytotoxicity induced by SCR7 was evaluated through trypan blue assay and flow cytometry analysis, 5,5',6,6 tetrachloro-1,1',3,3'-tetraethyl benzimidazol-carbocyanine iodide and annexin V-FITC/propidium iodide [PI] double-staining assays were used to study the mechanism of cell death. Modulation in the level of DNA repair and apoptotic proteins following treatment with SCR7 was examined by immunoblotting. Effect of SCR7 on sensitizing radiotherapy was further investigated in the SUDHL8 cells. Results: SCR7 induced cytotoxicity in the DLBCL cell line in a concentration- and time-dependent manner. Cell cycle analysis and annexin V/PI double-staining assay confirmed apoptosis in cells without interfering with cell cycle progression. Change in mitochondrial membrane potential in conjunction with alterations in the levels of apoptotic proteins suggested activation of both intrinsic and extrinsic pathways of apoptosis. Importantly, administration of SCR7 potentiated the effect of radiation upon combination therapy in DLBCL. Conclusion: Our results suggest that SCR7 could be developed as an alternative chemotherapeutic approach against DLBCL and is also effective along with radiotherapy.
Confounding role of tumor necrosis factor in cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (2017)

The NLRP3 inflammasome is a critical component of the innate immune system and can be activated in response to microbial and endogenous danger signals. Activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome results in caspase-1-dependent secretion of the proinflammatory cytokines IL-1β and IL-18. Gain-of-function missense mutations in NLRP3 result in a group of autoinflammatory diseases collectively known as the cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes (CAPS). CAPS patients have traditionally been successfully treated with therapeutics targeting the IL-1 pathway; however, there are a number of identified CAPS patients who show only a partial response to IL-1 blockade. In this issue of the JCI, McGeough et al. demonstrated that TNF-α, in addition to IL-1β, plays an important role in promoting NLRP3 inflammasomopathies.

Comparison of substrate effects in sapphire, trap-rich and high resistivity silicon substrates for RF-SOI applications (2015)

This paper compares insertion loss, harmonics and Q-factor of sapphire, trap-rich silicon and high-resistivity silicon substrates. The concept of substrate characteristic frequency is shown to be useful metric to evaluate substrate behavior. New methods to evaluate substrate properties are introduced using open CPW stubs and parallel plate capacitors. It is demonstrated that sapphire provides the best RF performance, while trap-rich silicon offers limited but adequate performance with a resistivity around a few kΩ-cm. High-resistivity silicon provides the worst RF performance due to unmitigated parasitic conduction.
Pilot Feasibility Study of an Oncology Financial Navigation Program (2017)

A Practical Method for Calculating Relative Free Energies of Binding. Chiral Recognition of Peptidic Ammonium Ions by Synthetic Ionophores (1997)

A new free energy simulation method is described and applied to compute the relative binding free energies (enantioselectivity) of enantiomeric guests (2) for several chiral host molecules (1). The new simulation method is based on a previously described smart Monte Carlo method (MC(JBW)) that is here modified to interconvert diastereomeric complexes as well as to make more traditional changes in conformation. Thus the new method simulates an equilibrium between enantiomeric guests in the binding site of a host molecule and leads directly to the relative free energies of the diastereomeric complexes in a single simulation. Here we show that the MC(JBW) method originally developed for simulations of single molecules can also be applied to simulations of molecular complexes. We describe a further extension of this MC(JBW) method that allows it to interconvert diastereomeric complexes along with all other conformational degrees of freedom. We then use the extended method (termed SME for simulated mutational equilibration) to compute the free energies of enantioselection of various alanine derivatives (2) binding to ionophore 1 using the AMBER* force field and the GB/SA model for chloroform solvent. One form of the method is found to be more than an order of magnitude faster than traditional free energy perturbation (FEP) calculations on the same system and gives free energies of enantioselection that are in close agreement with experiment. The speed of the new method makes it a practical tool for use in designing new enantioselective host molecules.

Massive MIMO with clustered pilot contamination precoding (2013)

In this paper, a practical approach to pilot contamination precoding (PCP) for massive MIMO is proposed through a joint clustering and pilot reuse scheme. We also introduce power scaling to enforce per-base station (BS) power constraints. We consider a massive MIMO system, where uncoordinated conventional beamforming is implemented in each cell. PCP acts as outer linear precoding prior to conventional beamforming through a cooperative transmission scheme with 3 base stations (BSs) involved. We partition each cell into 3 sectors and assign pilot sequences in a suitable way in order to perform PCP. In order to characterize performance and avoid time-consuming simulations, we employ large system analysis and random matrix theory. Numerical results show that the superiority of the clustered PCP is marginal for the moderate number of transmit antennas, but it becomes more significant in a massive MIMO mode. In addition, depending on user location, some users may experience a two-fold increased spectral efficiency after applying clustered PCP in the massive MIMO mode.
Commentary: Noninvasive Glucose Monitoring with Optical Heterodyne Technique (2000)

A novel optical polarimeter to sense the glucose level in vivo and noninvasively has been developed in the Institute of Radiological Science, National Yang Ming University. A 30-minute delay between the aqueous glucose and the blood glucose was observed in rabbit's eyeball. Currently, aqueous glucose in low concentration is being tested and discussed.
A low-cost VLSI architecture design for non-separable 2-D discrete wavelet transform (2005)

This paper presents an architecture for 2-D image decomposition of discrete wavelet transform. In order to avoid the memory transpose problem, we use non-separable approach instead of separable one. Besides, based on the input data reuse concept, a parallel-pipelined architecture is proposed The main characteristics of this architecture include: (1) needless memory transposition; (2) lower hardware cost; (3) shorter latency; (4) suitable VLSI implementation. Finally, all components in our architecture are simulated based on the accuracy requirement and realized as a single chip physically.
Coloración de monocristales de ZrO2: CaO por termoreducción (1995)

Se ha investigado mediante absorcion optica y fotoluminiscencia el proceso de coloracion por termo-reduccion de monoscristales de circona estabilizado en fase cubica con un 12% molar de oxido de calcio (Ca-FSZ). Se ha confirmado la existencia de un desplazamiento progresivo del borde de la banda de absorcion con el grado de rduccion quimica de los cristales, asi como, la de un desplazamiento similar en la posicion del maximo de excitacion de la luminiscencia. Los resultados son consistentes con un aumento de la concentracion de vancantes de oxigeno y la formacion de defectos complejos tipo vacante-impureza.
Recovery of gait and other motor functions after stroke: Novel physical and pharmacological treatment strategies (2004)

The gait-lab at Klinik Berlin developed and evaluated novel physical and pharmacological strategies promoting the repetitive practise of hemiparetic gait in line with the slogan: who wants to relearn walking, has to walk. Areas of research are treadmill training with partial body weight support, enabling wheelchair-bound subjects to repetitively practice gait, the electromechanical gait trainer GT I reducing the effort on the therapists as compared to the manually assisted locomotor therapy, and the future HapticWalker which will allow the additional practise of stair climbing up and down and of perturbations. Further means to promote gait practice after stroke was the application of botulinum toxin A for the treatment of lower limb spasticity and the early use of walking aids. New areas of research are also the study of D-Amphetamine, which failed to promote motor recovery in acute stroke patients as compared to placebo, and the development of a computerized arm trainer, Bi-Manu-T rack, for the bilateral treatment of patients with a severe upper limb paresis.
Measuring Intensity of Laser Light Penetrating Flight Decks in Laser Illuminations (2013)

Since 2005, reported laser attacks from people on the ground directed towards arriving and departing aircraft have increased over 300%. A laser aimed at the windshield of an aircraft startles a pilot and may cause injury. This study determined empirical evidence of laser intensity in the flight deck and the potential for harm to the human eye at various distances. Results of this study revealed that relatively low-powered lasers had measured intensity levels through cockpit windshields at the 200 and 500 feet distances that may cause damage to crewmembers’ eyes according to standards established by the federal government. At longer distances of 1000, 1500, and 2000 feet, these same lasers did not reveal measured intensities at levels to cause damage to crewmembers’ eyes; however, they were considered as having potentially distracting visual effects in flight that were further categorized as temporary flash blindness, glare or disruption, and distraction or startle.
Influence of Ion Size on Short-Range Repulsive Forces between Silica Surfaces (1998)

The influence of counterion size on short-range repulsive forces at high salt concentrations was investigated with silica slurries at various pHs. Ions from the lyotropic series of monovalent electrolytes (LiCl, NaCl, KCl, and CsCl) were used to coagulate dispersed slurries. Measurements of viscosity and sedimentation rate were performed. The results at high salt concentrations and volume fractions of silica clearly show that the extent of the short-range repulsive forces correlates with the size of the unhydrated ion. This trend is opposite to the ion-adsorption sequence on silica at low volume fractions of solids or lower ionic strength. Our results are also contrary to the widely accepted hydration force model but concur with the recently developed reference-hypernetted chain statistical mechanics models describing the interaction of ions with solvated surfaces.
Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Pelvic Floor Defects in Women (2006)

Contemporary fast magnetic resonance imaging techniques allow dynamic evaluation of the entire female pelvic floor with excellent visualization of pelvic organs and muscular and fascial supportive structures in a single noninvasive study that does not expose the patient to ionizing radiation. This article focuses on the role of magnetic resonance imaging in defining pelvic floor defects that can guide surgical management of women with pelvic organ prolapse, especially those who undergo evaluation for symptoms of multicompartmental involvement before a complex pelvic floor reconstruction or those who have failed previous repairs.

Single cell network profiling (SCNP) assay allows for the identification of heterogeneity in the activation of multiple signaling pathways in distinct human B cell subsets (174.12) (2012)

Abstract The specific functions of phenotypically defined B cell subsets in the regulation of protective immune responses and the pathogenesis of immune-mediated diseases is incompletely understood. SCNP is a multi-parametric flow cytometry based approach that simultaneously measures intracellular signaling in multiple cell subsets in heterogeneous tissues. In this study, SCNP was applied to examine 34 signaling nodes (paired modulator/intracellular readout) in B cell subsets (CD27-IgM+IgD+ naïve B cells, total CD27+ memory B cells, CD27+IgM-IgD- switched memory B cells, CD27+IgM+IgD+ IgM memory B cells) in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 6 healthy donors. Signaling responses in B cell subsets were masked when the total B cell population was analyzed. Specifically, a higher responsiveness was observed in the memory B cell subset relative to the naïve; 14 signaling nodes showed statistically significant differences between these subsets (p&amp;lt;.05, paired Wilcoxon test) of which 12 displayed stronger activation in response to CD40L, SDF1α, PMA, IFNα, IFNγ, IL10 and IL27 modulation in the memory B cells. 11 signaling nodes differed significantly in IgM memory vs. switched memory B cells (p&amp;lt;.05, paired Wilcoxon test); 7/11 displayed stronger activation in response to CpG, R848, thapsigargin, IFNγ and IL10 modulation in IgM memory B cells. An increased understanding of B cell subset signaling may allow for the development of more effective B cell targeted therapies.
Intelligent Co-ordinate Control for Mating Process of Underwater Vehicle Based on TFPN (2002)

In order to reduce time and improve the probability of successful matting it is useful to co-ordinate between the movement control and mating process of the underwater vehicle. Because it is hard to control with the common method under the condition of mating process, the hierarchical intelligent control is introduced. Timed fuzzy Petri net (TFPN), which is the integration of PN and fuzzy reasoning, is used in the design of coordinate level of hierarchically intelligent control. It made the control process better in reflecting the characteristics of time-driven, event-driven, fuzzy information and so on. The test shows that TFPN could shorten the time of mating and enhance the efficiency.
