A general framework for the design and analysis of sparse FIR linear equalizers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Complexity of linear finite-impulse-response (FIR) equalizers is proportional to the square of the number of nonzero taps in the filter. This makes equalization of channels with long impulse responses using either zero-forcing ...
Adolescents Surveillance System for Obesity in Europe. A pioneering project to prevent obesity in Italy using e-technology: the ASSO Project Adolescence Surveillance System for Obesity Prevention
(
IADIS
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Adolescents’ obesity is a major concern in our modern life; it could lead to significant increase in the rate of obese in the
future generations and consequently the health budget. The ASSO Project in Italy (Adolescence ...
An effective Model Predictive Control for grid connected Packed U Cells multilevel inverter
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a Model Predictive Control (MPC) for grid-tied Packed U Cells (PUC) multilevel inverter. The system under study consists of a single-phase 3-cell PUC inverter connected to the grid through filtering ...
An investigation into the efficiency of silicon carbide based power inverters
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this work, a study of a silicon carbide power modules in power inverter is presented. Voltage/Current/power and switching energy loss characteristics based on experimental data are detailed. A comparative study of total ...
Stochastic event-triggered particle filtering for state estimation
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, the problem of event-triggered (ET) state estimation is studied for nonlinear non-Gaussian systems. Particle filtering (PF) state estimation approach is developed for systems with stochastic ET measurements ...

Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Many spectrum sensing techniques have been proposed to allow a secondary user (SU) to utilize a primary user's (PU) spectrum through opportunistic access. However, few of them have considered the tradeoff between accuracy ...
Do users in Qatar perceive intellectual capital information to be value relevant for decision-making purposes?
(
Inderscience Publishers
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper examines the perception of users on the value relevance of intellectual capital (IC) information for decision-making. The data were collected through questionnaires distributed to Qatari companies. The paper ...
Performance of corrosion-aged Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams rehabilitated with Fabric-Reinforced Cementitious Matrix (FRCM)
(
International Committee of the SCMT conferences
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper reports on the feasibility of using fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) systems to rehabilitate corrosion-damaged reinforced concrete (RC) beams. Seven large-scale RC beams were constructed and tested ...
Hardware Acceleration of an Image Processing System for Dielectrophoretic Loading of Single Neurons Inside Micro-Wells of Microelectrode Arrays
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper describes an image processing algorithm and its efficient architecture. The proposed architecture is used to process images of microelectrode arrays (MEAs) and micro-wells captured by a microscope camera in a ...
Reliability estimation of load sharing capacity-c-out-of-n pairs:G Balanced system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In many cases, systems are required to provide a specified capacity such as the case of power distribution system. A system fails when its capacity does not meet the required minimum capacity. In this paper, we investigate ...
