A general technique for the generation of canonical channel models and demonstrate the application of the technique to time-frequency and time-scale integral kernel operators is developed. As an example, the derivation of Sayeed/Aazhang's time-frequency canonical channel characterization that forms the basis for the time-frequency RAKE receiver is shown. Then, a canonical time-scale channel model for wideband communication is developed.

This paper designs space-time codes for standard PSK and QAM signal constellations that have flexible rate, diversity and require no constellation expansion. Central to this construction are binary partitions of the PSK and QAM constellations that appear in codes designed for the Gaussian channel. The space-time codes presented here are designed by separately specifying the different levels of the binary partition in the space-time array. The individual levels are addressed by either the binary symmetric matrices associated with codewords in a Kerdock code or other families of binary matrices. Binary properties of these sets are sufficient to verify the diversity property of the codewords in the complex domain. Larger sets of binary symmetric matrices (such as the set used in Delsarte-Goethals codes) are used to trade diversity protection for increased rate.
We present a new formulation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation in terms of an auxiliary field that differs from the velocity by a gauge transformation. The gauge freedom allows us to assign simple and speci...

Rate and diversity impose a fundamental trade-off in space-time coding. High-rate space-time codes come at a cost of lower diversity, and high reliability (diversity) implies a lower rate. We explore a different point of view where we design high-rate space-time codes that have a high-diversity code embedded within them. This allows a form of communication where the high-rate code opportunistically takes advantage of good channel realizations whereas the embedded high-diversity code ensures that at least part of the information is received reliably. We explore this point of view with design issues, along with some preliminary progress on code constructions and some information-theoretic considerations.

We introduce a numerical approach to perform the effective (coarse-scale) bifurcation analysis of solutions of dissipative evolution equations with spatially varying coefficients. The advantage of this approach is that the `coarse model' (the averaged, effective equation) need not be explicitly constructed. The method only uses a time-integrator code for the detailed problem and judicious choices of initial data and integration times; the bifurcation computations are based on the so-called recursive projection method (Shroff and Keller 1993 SIAM J. Numer. Anal. 30 1099-120).

Composite materials are ideally suited to achieve multifunctionality since the best features of different materials can be combined to form a new material that has a broad spectrum of desired properties. Nature’s ultimate multifunctional composites are biological materials. There are presently no simple examples that rigorously demonstrate the effect of competing property demands on composite microstructures. To illustrate the fascinating types of microstructures that can arise in multifunctional optimization, we maximize the simultaneous transport of heat and electricity in three-dimensional, two-phase composites using rigorous optimization techniques. Interestingly, we discover that the optimal three-dimensional structures are bicontinuous triply periodic minimal surfaces.

We introduce a new architecture for pipelined (and also algorithmic) A/D converters that give exponentially accurate conversion using inaccurate comparators. An error analysis of a sigma-delta converter with an imperfect comparator and a constant input reveals a self-correction property that is not inherited by the successive refinement quantization algorithm that underlies both pipelined multistage A/D converters and algorithmic A/D converters. Motivated by this example, we introduce a new A/D converter, the beta converter, which has the same self-correction property as a sigma-delta converter but which exhibits higher order (exponential) accuracy with respect to the bit rate as compared to a sigma-delta converter, which exhibits only polynomial accuracy.
