Using random subcarrier weighting for multi-carrier systems physical layer security by Zhou ZHONG, Liang JIN, Kai-zhi HUANG

“…An OFDM security model and a physical layer security transmission scheme were proposed for multi-carrier systems to achieve low probability of interception.In contrast to the resource allocation algorithm which would be disabled at the low SNR,this method designed the subcarrier transmission weighting vectors to randomize the eavesdropper’s signals but not the authorized receiver’s signals.The channel state information was the only character to distinguish authorized receivers and eavesdroppers,which was conducted to guide the weighting vectors design.Simulation results show that the proposed method guarantees that authorized receiver performs transmitted reference demodulation successfully,while the eavesdroppers can not detect the transmitted symbols.…”

QALYs: The Math Doesn’t Work by Tia G. Sawhney, Angela Dobes, Sirimon O'Charoen

“….^1,2^ Proponents of the ban say that QALYs undervalue the positive effects of therapeutics on people with disabilities.^3^ We share their concerns. Furthermore, our review of the mathematical properties of QALYs, including an analysis of quality-of-life utility (QOL utility) data recently collected from patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), has led us to conclude that QALYs are an inappropriate metric of drug and treatment cost-effectiveness for all people, both disabled and nondisabled, and should not be the basis for US healthcare policy decisions.…”
