We propose and experimentally demonstrate a novel technique for chromatic dispersion (CD) monitoring and adaptive compensation in an 8 x 12.5 Gbit/s all-optical orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (AO-OFDM) system by using two pilot symbols and a virtually imaged phased array (VIPA) for a tunable CD compensator. The two pilot symbols are added to the first and the last sub-channels of the OFDM signal, and their relative time delay is detected and used for CD estimation at the CD monitoring circuit. The monitored CD value is fed to VIPA for CD compensation. In the experiments, the relative time delay between the two pilot symbols was successfully observed, and the adaptive CD compensation drastically improved the bit-error-rate (BER) from over 10(-5) to under 10(-9). The estimated CD values showed less than 10 ps/nm difference from the values measured by a photonic dispersion analyzer, which is accurate enough since the AO-OFDM system can keep BER<10(-9) upto 20 ps/nm residual CD.

Overview of Tensor-Based Cooperative MIMO Communication Systems-Part 2: Semi-Blind Receivers.

October 2024
Federal Institute of Education, Science, and Technology of Ceará, Fortaleza 60040-531, Brazil.
Cooperative MIMO communication systems play an important role in the development of future sixth-generation (6G) wireless systems incorporating new technologies such as massive MIMO relay systems, dual-polarized antenna arrays, millimeter-wave communications, and, more recently, communications assisted using intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs), and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). In a companion paper, we provided an overview of cooperative communication systems from a tensor modeling perspective. The objective of the present paper is to provide a comprehensive tutorial on semi-blind receivers for MIMO one-way two-hop relay systems, allowing the joint estimation of transmitted symbols and individual communication channels with only a few pilot symbols.

Introduction: Older cancer survivors have an elevated risk for mobility dysfunction compared to their cancer-free peers. Despite the established link between cognitive function and community walking in older cancer-free adults, little is known about this relationship in older cancer survivors. This pilot study aimed to evaluate the association of performance-based and self-reported cognitive function with mobile metrics of community walking collected by a wearable Fitbit device.

Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are a promising technology for sixth-generation (6G) wireless networks. However, a fully passive RIS cannot independently process signals. Wireless systems equipped with it often encounter the challenge of large channel matrix dimensions when acquiring channel state information using pilot-assisted algorithms, resulting in high pilot overhead.

Article Synopsis
- Evidence indicates that cognitive decline may contribute to freezing of gait (FOG) in Parkinson's disease (PD), with challenging exercises possibly serving as effective rehabilitation.
- A study compared the effects of adapted resistance training with instability (ARTI) to traditional motor rehabilitation (TMR) on cognitive function and FOG severity in individuals with PD.
- Results showed that the ARTI group experienced significant cognitive improvements and that enhancements in frontal lobe function were linked to reduced FOG severity, highlighting the potential of complex exercises in therapy for PD.
