Low Complexity Joint Blind Equalization and CFO Estimation for MC-CDMA System

Kais Bouallegue, Iyad Dayoub, M Gharbi, Kaïs Hassan, R. Masmoudi, A. Djebbar

Based on the orthogonality between the used and the unused spreading codes (excess codes) subspaces in one hand and on the restoration of guard interval redundancy of Multicarrier Code Division Multiple Access signal in other hand, we propose joint Carrier Frequency Offset and time domain equalizer…

Thermal conductivity of glassy GeTe4 by first-principles molecular dynamics

Assil Bouzid, Hayat Zaoui, Pier Luca Palla, Guido Ori, Mauro Boero, Carlo Massobrio, Fabrizio Cleri, Évelyne Martin

A transient thermal regime is achieved in glassy GeTe4 by first-principles molecular dynamics following the recently proposed “approach-to-equilibrium” methodology. The temporal and spatial evolution of the temperature do comply with the time-dependent solution of the heat equation. We demonstrate…

Reduced graphene oxide decorated with Co3O4 nanoparticles (rGO-Co3O4) nanocomposite: A reusable catalyst for highly efficient reduction of 4-nitrophenol, and Cr(VI) and dye removal from aqueous solutions

Amer Al-Nafiey, Ahmed Addad, Brigitte Sieber, Guillaume Chastanet, Alexandre Barras, Sabine Szunerits, Rabah Boukherroub

Water contamination with synthetic dyes and metal ions is an escalating problem, despite the huge research efforts put in the field of water treatment. The paper reports on one-step synthesis of reduced graphene oxide-cobalt oxide nanoparticles (rGO-Co3O4) nanocomposite under mild conditions. The…

Acoustic source localization based on the similarity rate between frequency-time images

Karl Hourany, Youssef Zaatar, Farouk Benmeddour, Emmanuel Moulin, Dorothée Debavelaere-Callens, Jamal Assaad

Many studies in different domains have shown the possibility of extracting information from a medium by exploiting the natural acoustic noise present in such medium. Recently, the promising potential of a passive acoustic technique, based on the correlation of the ambient noise for controlling the…

Low Source/Drain Contact Resistance for AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with High Al Concentration and Si-HP [111] Substrate

Steven Duffy, Brahim Benbakhti, Maghnia Mattalah, Wei Zhang, Meriem Bouchilaoun, Mohammed Boucherta, Karol Kalna, Nour Eddine Bourzgui, Maher, Hassan, Ali Soltani

An optimized fabrication process of ohmic contacts is proposed to reduce the source/drain access resistance (RC) and enhance DC/RF performance of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs with a high Al concentration. We show that source/drain RC can be considerably lowered by (i) optimally etching into the barrier layer…

Microfabricated PEDOT trilayer actuators: synthesis, characterization, and modeling

Ngoc Tan Nguyen, Cedric Plesse, Caroline Soyer, Sébastien Grondel, John D.W. Madden, Eric Cattan, Frédéric Vidal

Conducting polymer actuators have long been of interest as an alternative to piezoelectric and electrostatic actuators due to their large strains and low operating voltages. Recently, poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) - based ionic actuators have been shown to overcome many of the initial…
