An algorithm is presented for the design of optimal detection filters in radar and communications systems, subject to inequality constraints on the maximum output sidelobe levels. This problem was reduced in an earlier paper (Ref. 1) to an unconstrained one in the dual space of regular Borel measures, with a nondifferentiable cost functional. Here, the dual problem is solved via steepest descent, using the directional Gateaux differential. The algorithm is shown to be convergent, and numerical results are presented.This research was supported by the Australian Research Grants Committee. 相似文献
The work presented herein is a new noncovalent glycoarray assembly method for microplates created by simply mixing together an isocyanate-containing C14-hydrocarbon and an amine-containing carbohydrate. 2-Aminoethyl-β-d-galactopyranoside (1) was utilized in model studies and product formation was detected by both ESI-MS and lectin binding. The method has been further extended to array complex carbohydrates. 相似文献
Multiple-separation and -detection are two approaches applied at the identification of analytes in chromatography. Using them depends on the physico-chemical properties and elemental content of the analytes. When physico-chemical properties are similar multiple-separation gives better opportunities for the identification. In this case, the efficiency of the columns is very important. When analytes contain some characteristic groups as--NO2, halogen, or nitrogen atoms then multiple-detection will be more useful. The sensitivity and/or selectivity of the detectors increase reliability of identification significantly. 相似文献
Summary. The possibility of using synaptic plasma membrane (SPM) enzymes Na+/K+-ATPase and Mg2+-ATPase, isolated from rat brain, as a biological component of multi-response sensing system for detection of different compounds (alkaline and heavy metal salts, organic compounds) was studied. The method is based on the spectrophotometric determination of inorganic ortho-phosphate (Pi) that serves as a measure of the enzymatic activity in the presence of various analytes. The concentration of Pi, liberated by enzyme catalysed hydrolysis of adenosinetriphosphate (ATP), was followed spectrophotometrically, by single exposure to analytes or in the mixture. Pi was dose dependent on the analyte concentration. Alkaline elements (Na, K, Mg), heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Hg, Cu, Fe, Co, Zn), toxic organic compounds (pyridine, urea, chlorpyrifos), and some drugs (digoxin, gitoxin) showed diverse effects, inducing the inhibition or stimulation of the enzymes activity. Development of simple test method for simultaneous detection of the investigated analytes based on the variation of medium assay composition was discussed. 相似文献
A method for the detection of defects in cylindrical structures and the determination of their positions and orientations is presented in this paper. The scattered field, which is generated by the interaction of excited guided waves with a defect, is evaluated with an approach named time reverse numerical simulation method (TRNS). Since the excited waves and the scattered field propagate along the sample, the time-consuming scanning of the whole tube can be eliminated. The scattered displacement field is measured in three dimensions over time with a laser vibrometer at different locations distributed equally around the circumference at a fixed axial coordinate far away from the defect. Instead of analyzing the complicated time signals directly, they are played back in time. If the recorded displacement histories of the scattered field are reversed in time and played back in an identical structure, the waves travel back the same path and interfere to a maximum at their origin. The result is an amplitude increase at the position of the defect where the scattered field was generated. Instead of playing back the recorded time signals in an experiment, this step is replaced by a numerical simulation. Only this enables the visualization and detection of the amplitude increase. As long as the simulation is of high accuracy, the position of the maximum interference corresponds exactly to the location of the defect in the experiment, although no defect is implemented in the simulation. 相似文献
Within a mixture of proteins, minor polymorphic components are difficult to identify using a conventional proteomic approach. Their identification generally requires multi-dimensional separation steps, before or after proteolytic cleavage, followed by sequence analysis of the proteolytic products. In this study, we investigated the potential of tandem mass spectrometry for protein characterization by identifying the delta-beta hybrid human hemoglobin variant Lepore-Boston-Washington using electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. Hemoglobin Lepore-Boston-Washington occurs mainly in heterozygotes, where it comprises approximately 10% of the total non-alpha-chains, the dominant non-alpha-chain being the normal beta (approximately 90%). Furthermore, Hemoglobin Lepore-Boston-Washington has an average molecular mass (15,865.23 Da) that is only 2 Da lower than that of the normal beta-chain (15,867.24 Da). Consequently, it cannot be resolved from the normal beta-chain by mass spectrometry. Here we show how Hemoglobin Lepore-Boston-Washington was identified directly from the diluted blood of a heterozygote by analyzing the product ions from the Lepore-Boston-Washington and normal beta-chain ions without prior separation of the individual chains. This study shows the potential of the tandem mass spectrometry for identifying a minor component in an unseparated mixture of proteins. 相似文献
A new type of biosensor has been developed based on detection of nanosized superparamagnetic particles that serve as labels in bioreactions. The method is based on non-linear magnetic material detection by a magnetic field having components at two frequencies f1 and f2. The response is measured at the combinatorial frequencies fi=mf1+nf2, where m and n are integers, e.g., fi=f1±2f2. Several highly sensitive readers of superparamagnetic particles have been designed and used for development of various formats of immunoassays, including those compatible with immunoconcentration and magnetic enrichment of antigens. 相似文献
