Performance Analysis of OFDM System Using Non-conventional Transform and Non-conventional Mapping Schemes over Rayleigh Channel
Abstract: ABSTRACT High data rate wireless transmission is required to meet the rapidly increasing demands for mobile communications. Fast Fourier transform (FFT)-OFDM has drawn much attention due to its simple implementation and robustness against frequency-selective fading channels. Recently, the advantages of the discrete cosine transform (DCT)-based OFDM have come to the light. In this paper, performance of the conventional FFT-OFDM system is compared with non-conventional DCT-OFDM in terms of bit error …

Effect of Initial Temperature and Diameter of Ethanol Droplet on Evaporation Dynamics in Convective Air Medium
Abstract: Ethanol is a suitable biofuel as it has fewer toxic emissions and higher-octane numbers. For spray combustion applications, the gas phase motion must be considered while numerically investigating the fundamental aspects of droplet evaporation and combustion processes. Hence, we have numerically simulated the evaporation dynamics of an isolated spherically shaped ethanol droplet under a forced convective air environment in the absence of gravity. The momentum transfer between two phases is …

Searching Substring in O(n) Time Complexity
Abstract: This research paper presents a highly efficient algorithm for substring search within a given string, achieving a remarkable time complexity of O(n). The proposed algorithm utilizes a two-pointer approach to compare the given string with the targeted substring. By employing string concatenation, the algorithm dynamically constructs a resultant substring during the matching process. Upon completion of character matching, the algorithm compares the resultant substring with the targeted substring and returns …
