In this paper, we report the development of a simple inertial microfluidic device with a serpentine channel for efficiently separating blood cells from plasma. The working mechanism of this device relies on the two-sided secondary flow aided inertial focusing of particles in a serpentine channel. Specifically, blood cells were focused along two sides of the channel, while the blood plasma was collected at the cell-free region within the channel centre. The device was tested with diluted (1/20) whole blood. A relatively high flow rate of 350 μl min−1 with a purity of [similar]99.75% was achieved in a single process. A …

In this paper, we consider lattice reduction (LR) aided linear detection in a DSTTD-OFDM (double space-time transmit diversity- orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) system with antenna shuffling. We first derive an antenna shuffling criterion for the LR-aided DSTTD-OFDM system. Next, we propose a combined reduced-feedback and adaptive LR algorithm by exploiting the correlation between OFDM subcarriers in the frequency domain. The LR-aided DSTTD OFDM system with this algorithm requires low computational effort for the LR operation and small feedback information. Simulation results show that a significant improvement could be achieved in the proposed system compared to previous (non-LR-aided) systems under spatially …

Conventional analysis of a cervical histology image, such a pap smear or a biopsy sample, is performed by an expert pathologist manually. This involves inspecting the sample for cellular level abnormalities and determining the spread of the abnormalities. Cancer is graded based on the spread of the abnormal cells. This is a tedious, subjective and timeconsuming process with considerable variations in diagnosis between the experts. This paper presents a computer aided decision support system (CADSS) tool to help the pathologists in their examination of the cervical cancer biopsies. The main aim of the proposed CADSS system is to identify abnormalities …
