...signals that are tones or low BW compared with the FFT bin spacing in frequency. it is really simple the FFT of size N give an SNR increase of 10*log10(N) dB from the signal input to the FFT.
in a system i designed the signal of interest at the lowest symbol rate was less than one LSB of...
most "large" (>1000 employees) do attempt to log websites visited by employees and can search for keywords in emails.
There are ways to make the logging harder---for example if you can "turn off the "automatically detect proxy settings" tab in in you tools internet options, Lan setting tab in...
The filter in conjunction with the feedback makes a transfer function that has the form
Y=G(s)H(s)/{1+G(s)H(s)}
where we are forming a control system with a plant H and a "filter" or "loop filter" G. The expression is the Laplace transform of the (usually) differential equations...
...are doing. The are a way of calculating a Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) using some calculation tricks to compute the transform with a Ncalc = cN*LOG(kN)type relationship between the size of the transform (N) and the number of multiplies typically (Ncalc).
Second the transform is...
...on the equatorial plane and out 22,300 miles from the point directly below the satellite).
The delay depending on your lattitude can be over 4*22,300/186,000 or about 1/2 second assuming no processing delays. The reason is when you click your mouse for an http request it goes into your PC...
First a few questions Airforce2:
How many years are you in your profession?
If you are a newbie and you work in isolation how do you expect to increase your competence in your job?
What are you consulting for if you are a newbie? Consultants in my field tend to be very experienced.
I do...
Inevitably, the easy things are where the bugs are. So when it comes to designing you must sweat the little stuff!!
"Good enough" is perfect.
The bug just introduced is your bug--it is not a compiler bug, a subtle bug, it is a bleeding obvious one--so question thyself first.

Wow! lots of opinions. I am a male manager and have two women in my group--they are excellent and any male boss who has a problem treating women as equals needs to be gotten rid of--through human resources. I think if he is reasonable the following logic applies: Most bosses put people on...
some people really have it made commute-wise :) I am probably average with 20 miles each way and about 35-mins each way. Anything consistently over an hour calls for flexible start times to avoid peak traffic periods -- two hours of your life are eaten right out of your day and any more is a...
I think these precedents suck! They probably monitor web usage (usually the domains you are visiting), email, phone calls, now they are monitoring wxactly how long you are at the plant. You should get the younger folks to lobby for telecommuting at least a day or so each month at first, then...
Got the same issue--I am the Director of Signal Processing Design, when in fact my group sohould be called Communcations systems Engineering since we are the best engineers in the division and do that function. Problem is there is another group with the systems engineering moniker--so they had...
Please don't take this the wrong way but your boss was evidently one step away from a job that has the whole department reporting to him. You are a newbie by anyone's standards. Do you think you can run the whole department in another three years? If so then leave. If not, ask to participate...
jsolar,
Phase detector is just Err = Q*sgn(I) - I*sgn(Q) which is the maximum likelihood solution for QPSK. The fundamental problem is that you would like to average to get a lot of noise rejection into the loop. The issue is averaging implies delay, which is always bad in a feedback loop...
The very fact that you are feeling this way means you are probably going to do quite well--it means you know what you don't know and you are being challenged. Find a good mentor who knows more than you and learn like a sponge. People I have worked with who are new and think they know it all or...
The radix-3 is related to the total length of the FFT (the length is a power of 3, e.g., 9,27,81) not the type of data you are transforming. The length of the data buffer will not be a power of two which means some wasted addressing and the possiblity that the inherent RAM sizes will not be...
Just make a normal variable and set the mean to be yet another gaussian random variable. The speed that the mean changes is critical -- you want to filter the gaussian that represents the mean by doing a moving average or something. Change it at about 1/100 or so. You want to model a real...
All lordkaos wants to know is what Gross and/or net pay is--Gross means before taxes and net means after taxes. Gross means the same thing no matter where you are--all salaries are always quoted as "gross" quantities. figure your true net pay is about 60-65% of the gross value on the average...
most employers will let you take your email with you (an outlook archive). Be absolutely sure not to take any proprietary info that could be competition sensitive. Suppose you wrote a small program that does not exist in any product or proposal but was a calculation tool. It is very doubtful...
