K., Chen, Po-Yen, Loke, Weiqiang, Lim, Chwee Teck, Chiang, Grace Shu Hui, Tan, Boon Yeow, Li, Hao, Becker, David Laurence, Ho, John S.

“…The engineered DNA hydrogels respond selectively to deoxyribonucleases associated with pathogenic bacteria through tunable dielectric changes, which can be wirelessly detected using near-field communication. In a mouse acute wound model, we demonstrate that the wireless sensor can detect physiologically relevant amounts of Staphylococcus aureus even before visible manifestation of infection. …”

Adaptive modulation and subcarrier allocation for multiuser OFDM/CDMA systems by Zhang, Hua

“…The comparisons of the OFDM/CDMA, OFDM Interleaved-FDMA and OFDM Group-FDMA have been analyzed for the data transmission. Because of the near-unity reuse factor, one of the important merits of CDMA, the combination of OFDM and CDMA, known as OFDM/CDMA, brings substantial increase in the transmission data rate per unit bandwidth when the frequency resources are limited. …”
