- QoS Protocol and Algorithm Join Forces
- In general, routing is subdivided into two functionalities: routing protocols that keep the network state information up to date and routing algorithms that compute paths based on the information provided by the routing protocols. An excessive overhead prevents the distribution of all resource changes across the network, leading to stale...

- Bayesian Blind Parafac Receivers for DS-CDMA Systems
- This paper proposes a new Bayesian blind detection/identification algorithm for CDMA system in presence of spatial diversity at the receiver. Such algorithm provides good performance even for short frame length (typically, 10 symbol periods) and for large system load. Furthermore, simulation results show that the proposed method is close to...

- The Papoulis-Gerchberg Algorithm With Unknown Signal Bandwidth
- The Papoulis-Gerchberg algorithm has been extensively used to solve the missing data problem in band-limited signals. The interpolation of low-pass signals with this algorithm can be done if the signal bandwidth is known. In practice, the signal bandwidth is unknown and has to be estimated by the user, preventing an...
