Low-complexity likelihood probability derivation algorithm for non-binary LDPC-coded modulation system by Guang-hua HE, Bao-ming BAI, Xiao MA, Bing LI

“…The derivation of likelihood probabilities which are sent into the decoder in many LDPC-coded modulation systems is a challenging task especially when high-order modulations are used.This is because likelihood probabilities are usually complicated functions of the channel output and their calculation also requires knowledge of the channel parameters.To this end,a low-complexity likelihood probability derivation algorithm was proposed.Also,the Euclidean distance between the received signal and the constellation points was considered to divide the constellation points into two signal sets.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm provides good trade-offs between performance and complexity,making it a good candidate for the hardware implementation of the front-end in the non-binary LDPC decoders.…”

Sensory modulation difficulties and complex PTSD among child abuse survivors by Nitzan Avigail Kidra, Lee Gafter, Tami Bar-Shalita, Yael Lahav

“…However, previous research has primarily explored the relationship between sensory modulation and PTSD, without examining the role of sensory modulation in both PTSD and CPTSD.Objective: This study aimed to bridge this knowledge gap by exploring (1) sensory modulation response patterns as a function of a history of CA; (2) the relationships between sensory modulation, PTSD, and disturbances in self-organization (DSO) in CA survivors; and (3) The role of sensory modulation response patterns in the likelihood of being diagnosed with PTSD or CPTSD.Method: An online survey was conducted among a convenience sample of Israeli female adults (n = 426), including 288 (67.6%) CA survivors and 138 (32.4%) participants without a history of CA. …”

The intelligent control system for the technical radio beacons condition of the navigation and landing complex by D. D. Gabrielyan, P. I. Kostenko, O. A. Safaryаn

“…The feature of using AIS to develop the technical control system is integrating a multidimensional likelihood function into the knowledge base. By means of merely measurements of signal phases generated in RB, the given function makes it possible to evaluate:– average frequencies of generated signals in RB;– deviations of average frequencies from the required values throughout the entire observation interval;– random deviations of the current frequency values from the average ones at each measurement interval;– relative frequency instabilities of each of generators.The results obtained and their variation over the time allow us to carry out:– monitoring the technical condition of RB channels generators;– diagnostics of the technical condition of RB channels generators;– forecasting the technical condition of RB channels generators and making a decision concerning the status of the controlled generators according to the CORRECT OPERATION-DETERIORATION-FAILURE criterion.…”
