  • SIC based RL for massive MIMO NOMA signal detection for different modulation schemes under diverse channel conditions

    SIC based RL for massive MIMO NOMA signal detection for different modulation schemes under diverse channel conditions

    In this study, we used Matlab-2016 to estimate the performance of the proposed SIC-RL and conventional signal detectors with a Rayleigh channel. The parameters used in this study are listed in Table 3. The selected parameters ensure an accurate…

  • A complexity transition in displaced Gaussian Boson sampling

    A complexity transition in displaced Gaussian Boson sampling

    D-GBS and the matching polynomial

    The D-GBS problem can be visualised as the sampling of subgraphs from a graph representation of the Gaussian state, as shown in Fig. 1. Compared to regular non-displaced GBS, the addition of displacement…

  • Metastability and Ostwald step rule in the crystallisation of diamond and graphite from molten carbon

    Metastability and Ostwald step rule in the crystallisation of diamond and graphite from molten carbon

    Phase diagram and spontaneous crystallisation

    We first discuss the phase diagram of carbon in the region of the GDL triple point (Fig. 1a). Experimentally, the triple point was initially determined at T = 4100 ± 200 K, and…

  • Cavity-mediated collective emission from steady-state subradiance

    Cavity-mediated collective emission from steady-state subradiance

    Figure 1a–c compares two two-level emitters with different photonic environments under continuous incoherent excitation. For uncoupled emitters whose distance is much larger than their wavelength (\(d \; \gg \; \lambda\)) in free space, the…

  • Control strategy evaluation for reactive power management in grid-connected photovoltaic systems under varying solar conditions

    Control strategy evaluation for reactive power management in grid-connected photovoltaic systems under varying solar conditions

    Solar systems are connected to the grid through inverters, which convert DC power generated by the PV panels into AC power suitable for the grid and the aim of improving the sustainability of these types of developments. Modern inverters can also…

  • Radiation exposure reduction in peripheral interventions using digital variance angiography versus conventional angiography

    Radiation exposure reduction in peripheral interventions using digital variance angiography versus conventional angiography

    DVA exhibits promising prospects with respect to radiation exposure and ICM in DSA. This study aimed to determine the reduction of radiation dose in EPI using series of individual image acquisitions of DSA and DUA acquisitions instead of the…

  • Emergence of sliding ferroelectricity in naturally parallel-stacked multilayer ReSe2 semiconductor

    Emergence of sliding ferroelectricity in naturally parallel-stacked multilayer ReSe2 semiconductor

    ReSe2 is a high ambient stable van der Waals material where each layer is composed of a Re atoms plane sandwiched between two Se atoms planes27. Different from the most common group-VI transition metal dichalcogenides (e.g., MoS2 and WS2), there…

  • Quantum computation via Floquet tailored Rydberg interactions

    Quantum computation via Floquet tailored Rydberg interactions

    Model and Hamiltonian

    As illustrated in Fig. 1, we consider a scenario involving two neutral atoms interacting via RRI. Each atom is stimulated from the hyperfine ground state \(\left\vert 1\right\rangle\) to the Rydberg excited state \(\left\vert…
