Optimized Receivers for Underwater Visible Light Communication
Abstract: For uses like ocean exploration, environmental monitoring, and underwater data transfer, wireless communication under water is crucial. Conventional acoustic and radio frequency communication methods suffer from low bandwidth, high latency, and severe signal attenuation in underwater environments. With its high data rate and low propagation delay, Visible Light Communication (VLC) provides a promising alternative. In this work, an underwater VLC system is implemented using Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) with intensity …

Can Screw-only fixations of ACPHT acetabular fractures enhance stability as the standard buttress plate fixation provides?
Abstract: Background: Of acetabular fractures, anterior column posterior hemi-transverse(ACPHT) fractures commonly occur after a fall onto the hip in elderly population. When displaced in these fractures, open reduction and internal fixation using plate and screws is usually required to achieve good functional outcomes. The open procedures, however, involve high complication rates due to surgical invasion; therefore, percutaneous techniques by screw-only constructs have been advocated to minimize these complications. The purpose of …
