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 …

Identifying and Blocking of Non-productive Calls in Emergency Call System Using Machine Learning and IVRS Integration
Abstract: The Dial 100 emergency reaction gadget handles over 1,000,000 calls every day, with over 95% being unproductive, such as blank, machine-generated, and spoofed calls. These futile calls waste resources and put off responses to actual emergencies. This look presents a comprehensive solution integrating advanced name evaluation, system learning, and an interactive voice response system (IVRS) to filter out and prevent these calls. Our technique starts with studying incoming calls to …
