数字信号处理 = Understanding digital signal processing

Abstract: From the Publisher: This is undoubtedly the most accessible book on digital signal processing (DSP) available to the beginner. Using intuitive explanations and well-chosen examples, this book gives you the tools to develop a fundamental understanding of DSP theory. The author covers the essential mathematics by explaining the meaning and significance of the key DSP equations. Comprehensive in scope, and gentle in approach, the book will help you achieve a thorough grasp of the basics and move gradually to more sophisticated DSP concepts and applications.

Maximum Likelihood Receiver for Multiple Channel Transmission Systems

Abstract: A maximum likelihood (ML) estimator for digital sequences disturbed by Gaussian noise, intersymbol interference (ISI) and interchannel interference (ICI) is derived. It is shown that the sampled outputs of the multiple matched filter (MMF) form a set of sufficient statistics for estimating the input vector sequence. Two ML vector sequence estimation algorithms are presented. One makes use of the sampled output data of the multiple whitened matched filter and is called the vector Viterbi algorithm. The other one is a modification of the vector Viterbi algorithm and uses directly the sampled output of the MMF. It appears that, under a certain condition, the error performance is asymptotically as good as if both ISI and ICI were absent.

An Optimal Low Complexity PAPR Reduction Technique for Next Generation OFDM Systems

Abstract: Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is an efficient multi-carrier modulation technique that underlies most of the current and probably future high-speed wireless communication systems. However, the OFDM waveform is characterized by a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), especially when a large number of subcarriers are used. A high PAPR is a major waveform defect since it leads to non-linear distortion when passing through the transmitter’s power amplifier. Most of the PAPR reduction techniques found in the literature reduce the PAPR mainly at the cost of either excessive computational complexity or degrading the transmission bit error rate (BER). We propose a low-complexity technique for PAPR reduction based on linear scaling of a portion of signal coefficients by an optimal factor. This paper is backed up by the extensive analysis of various performance metrics, which leads to optimal choices of key parameters and hence maximum achievable gains. The analytic and simulated results show that the proposed technique is capable of reducing the PAPR effectively with negligible effect on BER in return for a slight reduction in data rate. For example, for 1024 subcarriers, the PAPR can be reduced from 13 dB to below 7.4 or 6.9 dB, in return for only 1% or 2% reduction in data rate, respectively. In addition, the achievable PAPR varies very slightly in response to increasing the number of subcarriers. This offers a highly competitive and flexible tradeoff compared with those provided by current techniques found in the literature. Therefore, this technique has a very good potential for practical application in current and future OFDM-based systems, especially those which employ a very large number of subcarriers, such as LTE, DVB-T2, and 5G systems.

Graph-Based Deep Learning for Medical Diagnosis and Analysis: Past, Present and Future

Abstract: With the advances of data-driven machine learning research, a wide variety of prediction problems have been tackled. It has become critical to explore how machine learning and specifically deep learning methods can be exploited to analyse healthcare data. A major limitation of existing methods has been the focus on grid-like data; however, the structure of physiological recordings are often irregular and unordered which makes it difficult to conceptualise them as a matrix. As such, graph neural networks have attracted significant attention by exploiting implicit information that resides in a biological system, with interactive nodes connected by edges whose weights can be either temporal associations or anatomical junctions. In this survey, we thoroughly review the different types of graph architectures and their applications in healthcare. We provide an overview of these methods in a systematic manner, organized by their domain of application including functional connectivity, anatomical structure and electrical-based analysis. We also outline the limitations of existing techniques and discuss potential directions for future research.
