Aspects of synchronization in direct sequence spread spectrum systemsComley, Vivian Edward January 1985 (has links)
A serial search process achieved by reference code clock frequency offset suffers from a degraded autocorrelation function between the two codes because of the differing chip rates. In this thesis a computer simulation is used to investigate the code decorrelation, and the results are employed to obtain the mean acquisition time for the serial search process. The analysis is extended to include a CCD. type of matched filter following the integrate and dump detector, and to investigate the improvements in acquisition time that may be achieved over the simple serial search process if a search-lock strategy is employed. The effects of jitter and phase offset upon the error probability of the recovered data are investigated both theoretically and by measurement for the particular case of code modulation by sequence inversion keying. A tracking loop is presented that has been shown to maintain reference code phase offset to within ~ 0.01 chips under conditions where the noise on the communications link has made the recovered data unusable for most purposes. Finally, an application of spread spectrum techniques to small local area networks is presented, and a discussion of the effects of the crosscorrelation noise from the other user spreading codes upon the tracking loop's discriminator characteristic is given.

Les anticorps neutralisants contre l'infection des virus foamy simiens chez l'homme / Neutralizing antibodies against simian foamy virus in infected humansLambert, Caroline 07 October 2016 (has links)
Les virus foamy simiens (VFS) sont la troisième famille des rétrovirus complexes exogènes infectant l'Homme. Ces virus, zoonotique, sont transmis par des fluides biologiques (principalement la salive), lors d'un contact direct entre un individu et un singe infecté. Ils établissent une infection chronique chez l'hôte infecté. À ce jour, aucune pathologie n'a été associée à au cas d'infections humaines par le VFS, et aucun cas de transmission secondaire n'a été rapporté dans la population. L'infection VFS représente un modèle naturel de la restriction de l'émergence d'un rétrovirus simien chez l'Homme. Lors de ma thèse, j'ai caractérisé la réponse humorale contre les VFS chez des personnes vivant au Cameroun ou au Gal infectées suite à des morsures lors d'épisodes de chasse. J'ai montré la présence d'anticorps neutralisants les VFS dans 48 sujets infectés, à des titres élevés. La population étudiée est infectée par des virus de deux génotypes qui diffèrent dans le domaine central de la protéine impliqué dans la liaison au récepteur cellulaire. J'ai montré des réponses neutralisantes spécifiques de chaque génotype des sujets étudiés et des réactivités croisées chez 40% d'entre-eux. Parmi ces derniers, la moitié est infectée par deux souches virales. En conclusion, mon travail de thèse est la première caractérisation des anticorps neutralisants chez des personnes infectées chroniquement par un VFS zoonotique : ces anticorps sont fréquemment détectés, à des titres élevés et sont dirigés contre des épitopes conservés entre les VFS de chimpanzé et de gorille. / Simian foamy virus (SFV) are the third family of exogenous complex retroviruses infecting humans. These viruses, of origins, are transmitted by body fluids (mainly saliva), through a direct contact between an individual and an infected m establish a chronic infection in the infected human host. To date, neither pathology, nor secondary transmission has be to be associated with SFV infection in humans. Therefore, SFV represents a natural model of restriction emerging simiar in humans. During my PhD, I characterized the humoral response against SFV in people living in Cameroon and Gabon, mainly infected bites during hunting episodes. I showed the presence of SFV neutralizing antibodies in the plasma of 48 infected individ titers. Our study population is infected with viruses of 2 different genotypes, which differ in the central region of the En region involved in binding to the cellular receptor.While in 60% of cases, neutralizing response was specific to a single genotype, 40% of cases showed cross-reactivity. Cr( was associated in 50% of cases with co-infection with viruses from both genotypes.In conclusion, my PhD is the first study to characterize neutralizing antibodies in individuals chronically infected with a zoonotic SFV : these antibodies are frequently detected at high titers and are directed against epitopes commonly found in chimpanzee and gorilla SFV.

Resonant transmission through negative permittivity materialsVarady, Koloman 21 April 2011
At the heart of the field of photonics is the control of the reflection and transmission of light. Plasmonics looks at this problem of control of electromagnetic radiation in the context of surface plasmon polaritons (SPP). SPPs are propagating electromagnetic modes localized at the interfaces between media with positive and negative permittivities. Their excitation can accompany the enhancement of transmission, reflection, or absorption of EM radiation. There are a number of ways to excite SPPs and this work looks at several geometries and analyzes the transmission and reflection characteristics using a numerical approach based on the finite element method.<p>
The first method of excitation is by incident evanescent wave that was totally internally reflected from an earlier interface. It is shown that an evanescent wave can excite SPPs and create resonant transmisison. It is also found that high values of dissipation limit transmission and instead create resonant absorption. The second method involves the modulation of the negative permittivity of the plasma slab itself. Numerical results are compared to analytical ones and are in good agreement because harmonics of the solution above the first are negligible. An investigation of transmission through a plasma slab with a single thin diffraction grating placed nearby follows. Analytical and numerical calculations show that a single thin grating is sufficient to create transmission resonance. It is found that for large values of diffraction grating modulation parameter, higher harmonics, usually not accounted for in analytical solutions, results in discrepancies between analytical and numerical results. The next geometry considered is of a plasma layer with only part of it having modulated permittivity. The presence of modulation of only part of the plasma layer is shown to create transmission and reflection resonances. By tailoring parameters of the system, it is shown how the resonant frequencies can be shifted. The final geometry considers a copper grating beside a plasma and transmission of a radio frequency wave. Even though the copper used here in this simulation is very absorbing, there are ranges of frequencies when transmission or reflection are enhanced.
