Spectrum of central nervous system infections in neurosciences hospital in two years : a retrospective study
...Show More Authors

Background :Infectious disorders in general have high morbidity and mortality.. CNS infections include many disorders like bacterial meningitis, tuberculous and other subacute and chronic meningitis, viral meningitis, cerebral abscess, spinal cord infections, and others.
Objective: To assess our locality about prevalence of CNS infections , to have more awareness regarding CNS infections, and to try to find the proper way to reduce their prevalence and to treat them in appropriate way.
Method :We revised the records of all the cases of CNS infections excluding cases of spinal cord infections who were admitted in the wards of neuroscience hospital over the previous two years ( from July/2010 to June 2012 ),those were 132 cases.Seasonal incidenceand other clinical aspects and other parameters like age , sex, , fever are extracted and recorded
Results: The most common CNS infections in sequence from the most to the least were bacterial meningitis, viral encephalitis, tuberculous meningitis, viral meningitis, and cerebral abscess.
The most common age group which is affected by CNS infections was below 10 years.
Males are affected more than females taking in consideration all types of infection.
P values were statistically significant for age, fever, signs of meningeal irritation, focal neurological deficit, and seizures.
Conclusion : The total rate of admission of CNS infections in our series was lower than other study.
The most frequent type of CNS infections was bacterial meningitis which is the same as most of the studies.
Males are affected more than females in our study in all types of CNS infections, this was approximate to other studies except for tuberculous meningitis.
Bacterial meningitis and viral encephalitis were more common in preschool children in our study.
Fever rate in bacterial and tuberculous meningitis was different from other studies.
Seizure rate in bacterial meningitis and viral encephalitis was approximate to other results.
Rate of focal deficit in viral encephalitis and tuberculous meningitis was different from other studies.
Rate of CSF protein elevation in all CNS infections was approximate to other studies.
Rate of hypoglycorrhachia was different from other studies only in tuberculous meningitis.
CSF pleocytosis was approximate to other studies in all types of CNS infections.
The two most common types of CNS infections , bacterial meningitis and viral encephalitis, are more common in preschool age groups.

A Partial CSI Estimation Approach for Downlink FDD massive-MIMO System with Different Base Transceiver Station Topologies
...Show More Authors

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (massive-MIMO) is a promising technology for next generation wireless communications systems due to its capability to increase the data rate and meet the enormous ongoing data traffic explosion. However, in non-reciprocal channels, such as those encountered in frequency division duplex (FDD) systems, channel state information (CSI) estimation using downlink (DL) training sequence is to date very challenging issue, especially when the channel exhibits a shorter coherence time. In particular, the availability of sufficiently accurate CSI at the base transceiver station (BTS) allows an efficient precoding design in the DL transmission to be achieved, and thus, reliable communication systems can be obtaine

Real Time Quantum Bit Error Rate Performance Test for a Quantum Cryptography System Based on BB84 protocol
...Show More Authors

In this work, the performance of the receiver in a quantum cryptography system based on BB84 protocol is scaled by calculating the Quantum Bit Error Rate (QBER) of the receiver. To apply this performance test, an optical setup was arranged and a circuit was designed and implemented to calculate the QBER. This electronic circuit is used to calculate the number of counts per second generated by the avalanche photodiodes set in the receiver. The calculated counts per second are used to calculate the QBER for the receiver that gives an indication for the performance of the receiver. Minimum QBER, 6%, was obtained with avalanche photodiode excess voltage equals to 2V and laser diode power of 3.16 nW at avalanche photodiode temperature of -10
