SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF JOINT CONSTELLATION AND PRECODING FOR MIMO COMMUNICATIONS
The disclosed exemplary embodiments are directed to wireless communication apparatus and methods that, among other advantages, improve bit error rates. In some examples, a multi-input multi-output (MIMO) transmitter receives data for transmission. The transmitter applies a joint constellation and precoding process to the received data to generate corresponding transmit symbols. The joint constellation and precoding process encodes the symbols jointly, using a codebook that maps sequences of bits to symbols. Further, the transmitter applies a Mahalanobis distance process to the transmit symbols to separate the transmit symbols, and generates a transmission signal based on the separated transmit symbols. The transmitter transmits the transmission signal to each of multiple antennae for wireless transmission. In some examples, a receiver receives the transmitted symbols from the plurality of antennae, and applies a corresponding decoding process to the received symbols to generate the data.

The compound having the formula (I) or (II) R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, R6, R10, or R11 is H or a C1-12 alkyl unsubstituted or optionally substituted with a functional group such as -OH, -OR', -NH2, -NHR', -NR'2, -N-C(0)R', -N-C(0)CR'=CR', - SH, -SR', -0-C(0)R', -C(0)R', -CF3, -OCF3, halogen, benzyl, o-vinylbenzyl, m-vinylbenzyl, p- vinylbenzyl, phenyl, allyl, and substituted allyl. R7, R8 or R9 is a C1-12 alkyl unsubstituted or optionally substituted with a functional group such as -OH, -OR', -NH2, -NHR', -NR'2, -SH, - SR', -0-C(0)R', -C(0)R', -CF3, and -OCF3. R' is H or a C1-4 alkyl. X or Y is a halogen, m and n are integers in the range from 1 to 25.
A system and method for determining the health of a battery. A primary coil may be positioned along a first portion of a battery and a secondary coil may be positioned along a second portion of the battery. The primary coil may then be excited with a signal, and an electromagnetic field induced in the secondary coil by the excited primary coil may be measured. A state of health of the battery may thus correlate to the measured electromagnetic field during operation of the battery. This state of health may be determined as a function of electrolyte stratification, current profile, electrode structure, electrode surface degradation, and combinations thereof.
A multi-junction photovoltaic cell includes at least two P-N junctions electrically connected to each other in series. Each P-N junction includes a P-type absorber layer and a N-type emitter layer, each P-type absorber layer including a plurality of alternating thin film layers of zinc telluride and lead telluride, wherein zinc telluride and lead telluride have respective bandgaps when in bulk thickness and the effective bandgap of each P-type absorber layer is between the respective bandgaps, The effective bandgap of at least one P-type absorber layer is different from that of at least one other P-type absorber layer.

ULTRASOUND-INDUCED DESTRUCTION OF TRACE-LEVEL ESTROGEN HORMONES IN AQUEOUS SOLUTIONS
A method for effectively degrading and destroying many pharmaceutical and personal care compounds in aqueous solutions. The method includes providing an aqueous solution containing at least one pharmaceutical or personal care pollutant (e.g., estrogene hormone, antibiotics, and the like) to a reactor. A source of ultrasound is provided having a predetermined energy and intensity. The aqueous solution is sonicated in the reactor to degrade and destroy the at least one pharmaceutical or personal care pollutant. Further provided is a related method for degrading and destroying many pharmaceutical and personal care pollutants in aqueous sludge while simultaneously enhancing the biodegradability and dewaterability of the aqueous sludge. Still further provided is a related method for predicting the first order ultrasound-induced degradation rate constant of any estrogen compound present in an aqueous solution based on the rate constant of estrone.
