Impact of I/Q Imbalance Due to Gain and Phase Mismatcheson IRR, Image Leakage, Constellation Distortion, SNR and BER in OFDM Systems
Abstract: Due to its great spectral efficiency and resilience to multipath fading, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing,or OFDM, has become a popular modulation technique in contemporary wireless communication systems.Reliable OFDM reception depends on accurate channel estimate, and methods like Least Squares (LS) andMinimum Mean Square Error (MMSE) estimation are frequently used to make up for channel impairments.However, despite effective channel estimation, practical receiver performance can still be degraded by radio-frequency front-end imperfections, …

Compression-Only Life Support (COLS) for Laypersons: A Practical Approach to Cardiac Emergency Management
Abstract: Hemodynamic tissue perfusion is regulated by the pumping heart; the specialized cardiac cells have an autorhythm property that enables the heart to beat throughout life. When the pumping capability of the heart diminishes due to tissue ischemia, it leads to dysfunction. Pathological factors result in a decreased supply of blood to cardiac cells. Coronary circulation is at risk of stenosis due to spasm, plaque, or sclerosis, causing tissue hypoxia, injury, …

A Study on Autoimmune Diseases and Their Effects on Body Systems
Abstract: Autoimmune diseases are disorders in which the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own healthy cells, tissues, and organs instead of protecting them from harmful substances. This abnormal response results in inflammation, tissue injury, and impaired function of different organs. The purpose of this study is to present a general understanding of autoimmune disorders and explore their impact on multiple body systems, such as the musculoskeletal, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, and …

A Study to Assess the Knowledge Regarding Alcoholism Among Auto Drivers in a Selected Area of Rewa City with a View to Develop Information Booklet
Abstract: Indian society is gradually transitioning from a traditionally conservative framework to a more open and liberal environment, leading to changing attitudes toward alcohol consumption, particularly among youth. Alcohol use is increasingly viewed as socially acceptable, despite its serious health and social consequences. Globally, harmful use of alcohol accounts for nearly 2.5 million deaths annually, including approximately 3,20,000 deaths among individuals aged 15–29 years due to alcohol-related causes. This growing concern …

Dynamic Matrix Control Versus Nonlinear ModelPredictive Control for the Van de Vusse ContinuousStirred-Tank Reactor: Diagnosing and Correcting aCost-Function Pathology That Masked NMPC’sTrue Performance
Abstract: The Van de Vusse reaction in a continuous stirred-tank reactor (CSTR) is a benchmark for nonlinear multivariable control, but its narrow operating envelope creates a trap for nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC): when the setpoint step is small relative to the plant’s reachable range, a standard quadratic NMPC cost function can make zero control action mathematically optimal, even with a perfect prediction model. This paper documents that failure mode, traces …
