Apparatus and method for providing adaptive forward error correction utilizing the error vector magnitude metric

TL;DR: In this paper, an adaptive forward error correction technique based on noise bursts and the rate at which they occur is disclosed, which is based on statistics describing the noise burst duration and period.

Method and system for measuring jitter

TL;DR: In this article, a splitter is used to split a signal into an input signal (406) and a clock signal (410), which is then used to compute the internal jitter of the data converter.

Availability prediction method for high availability cluster

TL;DR: In this paper, an availability prediction method for a high availability is presented, which includes calculating a basic survival probability that the other node survives until a failure on one node of two nodes constituting a cluster is fixed, and determining an optimal number of nodes meeting a preset reference availability probability.

Getting the most out of historic reliability data

TL;DR: In this article, an intensive statistical analysis on the UK transmission power transformer historic reliability data is presented, and it is shown that deriving the reliability of transformer at a certain age by simply calculating the hazard rate is inadequate, as the hazard rates in each age has a statistical range in which the confidence band width is related to the amount of the reliability data involved in that age.

Flight delay-cost simulation analysis and airline schedule optimization

D Yuan
TL;DR: In order to meet the fast-growing demand, airlines have applied much more compact air-fleet operation schedules which directly lead to airport congestion as mentioned in this paper, and one result is the flight delay, which appears more frequently and seriously;
