A Cauchy Problem For Some Local Fractional Abstract Differential Equation With Fractal Conditions, Yang Xiaojun, Zhong Weiping, Gao Feng Jan 2013

A Cauchy Problem For Some Local Fractional Abstract Differential Equation With Fractal Conditions, Yang Xiaojun, Zhong Weiping, Gao Feng

Xiao-Jun Yang

Fractional calculus is an important method for mathematics and engineering [1-24]. In this paper, we review the existence and uniqueness of solutions to the Cauchy problem for the local fractional differential equation with fractal conditions \[ D^\alpha x\left( t \right)=f\left( {t,x\left( t \right)} \right),t\in \left[ {0,T} \right], x\left( {t_0 } \right)=x_0 , \] where $0<\alpha \le 1$ in a generalized Banach space. We use some new tools from Local Fractional Functional Analysis [25, 26] to obtain the results.


Identifying High-Dimension Subspace Subcodes Of Reed-Solomon Codes, Sarah Adams Jul 2012

Identifying High-Dimension Subspace Subcodes Of Reed-Solomon Codes, Sarah Adams

Sarah Spence Adams

Subspace subcodes of Reed-Solomon (SSRS) codes were introduced by Hattori, McEliece, Solomo, and Lin in the mid-1990s. These authors found a complicated dimension formula and a simple, tight lower bound on thedimension of SSRS codes over F2m. We prove a conjecture of Hattori concerning how to identify subspaces that can be used to build SSRS codes whose dimension exceeds this lower bound.


The Minimum Decoding Delay Of Maximum Rate Complex Orthogonal Space–Time Block Codes, Sarah Adams, Nathaniel Karst, Jonathan Pollack Jul 2012

The Minimum Decoding Delay Of Maximum Rate Complex Orthogonal Space–Time Block Codes, Sarah Adams, Nathaniel Karst, Jonathan Pollack

Sarah Spence Adams

The growing demand for efficient wireless transmissions over fading channels motivated the development ofspace-time block codes. Space-time block codes built from generalized complex orthogonal designs are particularly attractive because the orthogonality permits a simple decoupled maximum-likelihood decodingalgorithm while achieving full transmit diversity. The two main research problems for these complex orthogonalspace-time block codes (COSTBCs) have been to determine for any number of antennas the maximum rate andthe minimum decoding delay for a maximum rate code. The maximum rate for COSTBCs was determined by Liang in 2003. This paper addresses the second fundamental problem by providing a tight lower bound on …


On The Issue Of Decoupled Decoding Of Codes Derived From Quaternion Orthogonal Designs, Tadeusz Wysocki, Beata Wysocki, Sarah Spence Adams Jul 2012

On The Issue Of Decoupled Decoding Of Codes Derived From Quaternion Orthogonal Designs, Tadeusz Wysocki, Beata Wysocki, Sarah Spence Adams

Sarah Spence Adams

Quaternion orthogonal designs (QODs) have been previously introduced as a basis for orthogonal space-time polarization block codes (OSTPBCs). This note will serve to correct statements concerning the optimality of a decoupled maximum-likelihood (ML) decoding algorithm. It will be shown that when compared to coupled decoding, the decoupled decoding is only optimal in certain cases. This raises several open problems concerning the decoding of OSTPBCs.
