Deep Receiver Design for Multi-carrier Waveforms Using CNNs [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
In this paper, a deep learning based receiver is proposed for a collection of multi-carrier wave-forms including both current and next-generation wireless communication systems. In particular, we propose to use a convolutional neural network (CNN) for jointly detection and demodulation of the received signal at the receiver in wireless environments. We

The multiple roles of the NlpC_P60 peptidase family in mycobacteria – an underexplored target for antimicrobial drug discovery

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The NlpC_P60 superfamily of peptidases is recognised by its key role in bacterial cell wall homeostasis. Recently, studies have also described the involvement of NlpC_P60‐like enzymes in bacterial competitive mechanisms and pathogenesis across several lineages.

Current sedation practices for non-invasive procedures in tertiary maternity and children’s hospitals in China: a 5-year update

BMJ Paediatrics Open
Background Sedation techniques can ease anxiety during medical procedures for children. Our previous report on Chinese sedation practices for non-invasive procedures in 2018 is outdated due to the rapid development of sedation services.

Effects of Patient-Directed Music Intervention on Anxiety and Sedative Exposure in Critically Ill Patients Receiving Mechanical Ventilatory Support: A Randomized Clinical Trial [PDF]

, 2013
Importance: Alternatives to sedative medications, such as music, may alleviate the anxiety associated with ventilatory support. Objective: To test whether listening to self-initiated patient-directed music (PDM) can reduce anxiety and sedative exposure ...

Making tau amyloid models in vitro: a crucial and underestimated challenge

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review highlights the challenges of producing in vitro amyloid assemblies of the tau protein. We review how accurately the existing protocols mimic tau deposits found in the brain of patients affected with tauopathies. We discuss the important properties that should be considered when forming amyloids and the benchmarks that should be used to ...

Palliative sedation in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: results of a nationwide survey among neurologists and palliative care practitioners in Germany

BMC Neurology, 2022
Background Palliative sedation has become widely accepted as a method to alleviate refractory symptoms in terminally ill patients. Controversies regarding this topic especially concern the use of palliative sedation for psychological symptoms, the use in

Volatile Sedation for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Patients on Venovenous Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation and Ultraprotective Ventilation

Critical Care Explorations, 2021
Objectives:. Patients on extracorporeal support for severe acute respiratory distress syndrome may require a prolonged period of deep sedation. In these patients, volatile sedation may represent a valid alternative to IV drugs.

The role of alcohol response phenotypes in the risk for alcohol use disorder [PDF]

, 2019
Heavy alcohol use is pervasive and one of our most significant global health burdens. Early theories posited that certain alcohol response phenotypes, notably low sensitivity to alcohol (‘low-level response’) imparts risk for alcohol use disorder (AUD ...

An investigation of the temperature dependency of the relative population inversion and the gain in EDFAs by the modified rate equations [PDF]

Optics Communications 254, 248-255, (2005)., 2004
The dependence of the relative population inversion in Er3+-doped fiber amplifiers (EDFAs) upon temperature and cross sections, taking into account the amplified spontaneous emission (ASE), are investigated theoretically by the modified rate equation model for 980 nm and 1470 nm pumping conditions.
