Simulation of Differential Space Time Block Coding
Abstract: AbstractIn such a coherent system, the underlying assumption is that the channel does not change during one frame of data. Thus, it can also be interpreted as the frame length is chosen such that the path gain change during one frame is negligible. This is basically the quasi-static fading assumption that we have used so far. There is a bandwidth penalty due to the number of transmitted pilot symbols. Of …

Next Generation Immunoassays for Infectious Diseases of Animals
Abstract: Veterinary diagnostics has an essential role to play in the management and control of infectious diseases. Immunodiagnostics originated towards the end of 19th century with the advent of agglutination- and precipitation-based serological techniques. Progress in immunodiagnostics during the 20th century is marked by development of complement fixation test, and later, fluoro-, radio- and enzyme-immunoassays during 1950s, 1960s and 1970s, respectively. Various immunodiagnostic test formats were improved for their performance characteristics …

Feature Extraction to Detect Diabetic Retinopathy and Glaucoma in Fundus Image
Abstract: Visual impairment due to various eye-related diseases can be largely prevented through regular fundus colour image screening. Large scale screening of the retinal image in the early stages is crucial to disease diagnosis. It is reported that the number of ophthalmologist ratios is very low. Hence, the computer-aided screening is required where the diagnosis of disease from an image is done from the main features of the fundus image. In …
