Diagnostic value of bronchoalveolar lavage in the subset of patients with negative sputum/smear and mycobacterial culture and a suspicion of pulmonary tuberculosis
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
Background: The diagnostic value of bronchoalveolar lavage in patients with negative sputum/smear for tuberculous bacilli has been well studied. However, its value in the subset of patients with both negative sputum/smear ...
Investigation on SVM-Backstepping sensorless control of five-phase open-end winding induction motor based on model reference adaptive system and parameter estimation
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper deals with a new control technique applied to five-phase induction motor under open-end stator winding (FPIM-OESW) topology using the backstepping nonlinear control. The main objective is to improve the dynamics ...

This study tests the effect of personal and online characteristics on consumers' desire for revenge and their online revenge intentions. In light of the interactivity and community of social media platforms, it examines ...
On the delay/throughput-security tradeoff in wiretap TDMA networks with buffered nodes
(
IEEE
, 2019 , Article)
In this paper, we investigate the tradeoff between security and throughput and between security and queuing delay in wiretap time-division multiple access (TDMA) networks. We derive a simple relationship, characterized by ...
Exploiting Sparsity in Amplify-and-Forward Broadband Multiple Relay Selection
(
IEEE
, 2019 , Article)
Cooperative communication has attracted significant attention in the last decade due to its ability to increase the spatial diversity order with only single-antenna nodes. However, most of the techniques in the literature ...
Wiretap TDMA Networks with Energy-Harvesting Rechargeable-Battery Buffered Sources
(
IEEE
, 2019 , Article)
We investigate the physical-layer security of an uplink wireless time-division multiple-access channel with energy-harvesting source nodes. We consider a set of source nodes equipped with rechargeable batteries and information ...
