Insert a Symbol or Special Character
White Paper The user can use the Symbol dialog box to insert symbols, such as ¼ and, or special characters, such as an em dash (-) or ellipsis (&) that are not on the keyboard, as well as Unicode characters. The built-in Symbol font includes arrows, bullets... [16 Apr 2008]
Customize Keyboard Shortcuts
White Paper The user can customize keyboard shortcuts by assigning keyboard shortcuts (or shortcut keys) to a command, macro, font, style, or commonly used symbol. The user can also remove keyboard shortcuts. Reassigning a combination of keys means that one... [11 Apr 2008]
Accessibility Features in Word
White Paper The user can assign keyboard shortcuts (or shortcut keys) to a command, macro, font, style, or commonly used symbol. Microsoft Office Word 2007 includes features that make the software accessible to a wider range of users, including those who have... [11 Apr 2008]
Make a Checklist in Word
White Paper If the user just wants to create a checklist with check boxes that one will check off on paper, one can create a list that uses a box symbol as a bullet. If one just needs a checklist that the user can print, one can make a list where each item has... [11 Apr 2008]
Linear Constellation Precoding for OFDM With Maximum Multipath Diversity and Coding Gains
White Paper Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) converts a frequency-selective fading channel into parallel flat-fading subchannels, thereby simplifying channel equalization and symbol decoding. However, OFDM's performance suffers from the loss... [10 Apr 2008]
Robust Timing Synchronization for OFDM Based Wireless LAN System
White Paper In this paper, a robust and efficient frame detection and symbol timing synchronization technique suitable for IEEE 802.11a wireless LAN system is proposed. The proposed method does frame detection using a threshold comparison mechanism and... [10 Apr 2008]
Error Probability Minimizing Pilots for OFDM With M-PSK Modulation Over Rayleigh-Fading Channels
White Paper Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with pilot symbol assisted channel estimation is a promising technique for high rate transmissions over wireless frequency-selective fading channels. This paper analyzes the symbol error rate (SER... [10 Apr 2008]
Linearly Precoded or Coded OFDM Against Wireless Channel Fades?
White Paper But when the channel has nulls close to or on the FFT grid, OFDM faces serious symbol recovery problems. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) converts a dispersive channel into parallel subchannels and thus facilitates equalization. [10 Apr 2008]
A Decision Directed Receiver for Alamouti Coded OFDM Systems
White Paper When the Alamouti code is applied (as a space-time block code) to an OFDM system with transmit diversity, the simple Alamouti decoding requires that each subchannel is flat-fading and constant over two symbol periods (Alamouti codeword period). [10 Apr 2008]
Detection of OFDM-CPM Signals Over Multipath Channels
White Paper Canonical optimum and suboptimum multiple-symbol-observation OFDM-CPM receivers are derived. A class of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing - Continuous Phase Modulation (OFDM-CPM) signals is introduced in which binary data sequence is... [10 Apr 2008]
Successive Interference Cancellation Algorithms for Downlink W-CDMA Communications
White Paper A new term, effective spreading code, has been introduced in this paper, which is defined as the interfering user physical code as seen by the desired user within the desired user symbol duration. In this paper, successive intracell interference... [10 Apr 2008]
An Integrated OFDM Receiver for High-Speed Mobile Data Communications
White Paper The effects of non-ideal transmission conditions of the OFDM system including channel estimation errors, symbol timing offset, carrier and sampling clock offset, phase noise and time-selective fading are analyzed. [10 Apr 2008]
Exploiting Multipath Induced Diversity in OFDM Systems
White Paper It is primarily used in high bit rate systems to mitigate inter-symbol interference (ISI) caused due to de- lay spread. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a multi-carrier block modulation scheme suitable for wireless communications. [03 Apr 2008]
Sears Uses Wireless Technology to Create Seamless Multi-Channel Shopping
White Paper Using wireless mobile technology provided by Symbol Technologies, Sears enables customers to shop from their home computers and pick up their purchases at a local Sears store. Accomplished in both its retail store and online shopping channels... [31 Mar 2008]
