The paper presents an algorithm for the compensation of gain and phase imbalances to exist between I-phase and Q-phase signal at direct conversion receiver. We propose a gain and phase imbalances blind equalization compensation algorithm by using variable step-size adaptive loop at direct conversion receiver. The blind equalization schemes have trade-off between convergence speed and jitter effect for the compensation of gain and phase imbalance. We propose the variable step-size adaptive loop method, which varies the loop coefficients according to errors, for recovering these problem. By using variable step-size adaptive loops, we propose to speed up the convergence process and reduce the jitter effect and simulation results show that the algorithm compensates signal loss and speeds up convergence time.

In this study, the fabrication of ultra fine grained Mo bulk was conducted. $MoO_3$ nanopowders were prepared by a high energy ball-milling process and then reduced at the temperature of $800^{\circ}C$ without holding time in $H_2$ atmosphere. The particle size of Mo nanopowder was ~150 nm and grain size was ~40 nm. The two-step process was employed for the sintering of Mo nanopowder to obtain fine grain size. The densification over 90% could be obtained by the two-step sintering with a grain size of less than 660 nm. For higher density, modified two-step sintering was designed. 95% of theoretical density with the grain size of 730 nm was obtained by the modified two-step sintering.

Multi-step induction heating process was applied to the powder compact melting technique as a new heating process to achieve pinpoint accuracy, faster cycle time, repeatability, non-contact and energy-efficient heat in a minimal amount of time. The objective of this study is the establishment of the input data diagram of multi step induction heating process for automation of the fabrication process of 6061 Al foams with desired density. At first, proper induction coil was designed to obtain a uniform temperature distribution over the entire cross sectional area of specimen. By using this coil, foaming experiments were performed to investigate the multi-step induction heating conditions such as capacity, temperature and time conditions of each heating and holding step. On the basis of the obtained multi-step induction heating conditions, relationship between final heating temperature and fraction of porosity was investigated.

This paper related with the performance evaluation of H-MMA (Hybrid-MMA) which is applying the adaptive modulus and adaptive step size concept to MMA adaptive equalization algorithm in order to reduce the intersymbol interference that is occurred in communication channel for digital code transmission. In the conventional MMA adaptive equalizer, the coefficient is updated by using the equalizer output and possible to compensation of amplitude and phase in 2nd dimensional QAM signal, the equalization performance were degraded due to fixed modulus and step size. For the overcomming the abovemensioned problem, it is possible to improving the equalization performance in the 2nd dimensional QAM signal by applying the adaptive modulus and adaptive step size propotional to equalizer output signal to the conventional MMA algorithm. The computer simulation was performed in the same channel for the compare the performance of MMA and proposed H-MMA which is proposed in this paper. As a result of simulation, the proposed H-MMA has slower convergence time in order to arriving the steady state than MMA. But after the steady state, H-MMA has more superior to the MMA in every performance index and the equalization noise was reduced.

In this article, we propose an efficient and accurate adaptive time-stepping numerical method for the Black-Scholes (BS) equations. The numerical scheme used is the finite difference method (FDM). The proposed adaptive time-stepping computational scheme is based on the maximum norm of the discrete Laplacian values of option values on a discrete domain. Most numerical solvers for the BS equations require a small time step when there are large variations in the solutions. To resolve this problem, we propose an adaptive time-stepping algorithm that uses a small time step size when the maximum norm of the discrete Laplacian values on a discrete domain is large; otherwise, a larger time step size is used to speed up the computation. To demonstrate the high performance of the proposed adaptive time-stepping methodology, we conduct several computational experiments. The numerical tests confirm that the proposed adaptive time-stepping method improves both the efficiency and accuracy of computations for the BS equations.

Present study investigated the influence of time step size, turbulent eddy viscosity, and the number of layer on rapid and unsteady propagation of dam break flow. When the time step size had a value such that it resulted in Cr of 0.89, a significant numerical oscillation was observed in the vicinity of the wave front. Higher turbulent viscosity ensured smooth and mild slope of velocity and water stage compared with the flow behavior by no viscosity. The vertical velocity at the lower layer positioned near the bottom showed lower velocity compared with other layers.

In this paper, we propose a non-intrusive load monitoring(NILM) system which can find the power of each home appliance from the aggregated total power as the activation in the trading market of the distributed resource and the increasing importance of energy management. We transform the amount of appliances' power into a power on-off state by preprocessing. We use LSTM as a model for predicting states based on these data. Accuracy is measured by comparing predicted states with real ones after postprocessing. In this paper, the accuracy is measured with the different number of electronic products, data postprocessing method, and Time step size. When the number of electronic products is 6, the data postprocessing method using the Round function is used, and Time step size is set to 6, the maximum accuracy can be obtained.

The effect of synthesis condition, type of starting materials, mole ratio, mixing. aging, and crystallization temperature and time, on the size of FAU-type zeolite has been studied. Different mixing route may lead to the different phase of zeolite even with the same starting materials. In general, the size of particles is smaller after aging, especially at lower aging temperature. Two step mixture gel preparation method resulted to not only the reduction of crystallization time but also that of particle size, but without the aging of two mixture gels before the preparation of the overall gel in the second step, only the crystallization time was reduced, not the particle size. The FAU-type zeolite with average particle size 0.4$\mu$m and BET surface area 838 $m^2$/g was obtained from starting materials of liquid sodium silicate, sodium aluminate, and sodium hydroxide with two step preparation of mixture gel, aging of the mixture gels in two steps, which effectively reduced the crystallization time and particle size.

CMA (Constant Modulus Algorithm) is one of the well-known algorithms in blind acoustic channel equalization. Generally, CMA converges slowly and the speed of convergence is dependent on a step-size in the CMA procedure. Many researches have tried to speed up the convergence speed by applying a variable step-size to CMA, e.g. the orthogonal projection CMA and algebraic optimal step-size CMA. In this paper, we summarize these two algorithms, and we propose a new CMA with improved convergence performance. The improvement comes from the switching between the orthogonal projection CMA and algebraic optimal step-size CMA. In simulation results, we show the performance improvement in the time invariant channels as well as in time varying channel.

A prior error estimator which is solving structural dynamic problems and which is based on the generalized-method, is developed. Since the proposed error estimator is computed with only previous information, the time step size can be adaptively selected without the feedback mechanism. This paper shows that the automatic time stepping algorithm using the error estimator performs an efficient time integration. To verify its efficiency, several examples are numerically investigated.
