This review aimed to systematically summarize the use of novel nanomaterials in consumer and food products based on their antibacterial properties. The objectives of this work were to: 1) summarize currently available consumer and food products that contain engineered nanoparticles, 2) study mechanisms of the antibacterial property of engineered nanoparticles, 3) review current applications of engineered nanomaterials in Vietnam. The results demonstrate that many nanoparticles are biocompatible and has a potential to be used in agriculture and food science, indicating that more studies are needed to exploit its potential applications. The summative data also show that nanomaterials can be used as an antimicrobial agent to inhibit the growth of pathogens. More effort is required to further elucidate the antimicrobial mechanism and ...

An Alamouti space-time block code is employed together with M-ary frequency-shift-keying (FSK). Detection at the destination is performed in two steps. First, the destination estimates the overall channels based on the pilot symbol inherent in FSK transmission. Then it performs the maximal ratio combining (MRC) to make a final decision. An upper bound on the error performance is derived in a closed-form expression and it is shown that the investigated scheme achieves the full diversity order. Simulation results are also presented to confirm the analysis in a temporally-correlated fading environment.

To this end, the upper and lower bound of the end-to-end effective signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for an arbitrary number of cooperative relays equipped amplify-and-forward protocol is derived and then used to derive the closed-form ...

First, the convectional "two-symbol" differential detection (CDD) is theoretically analysed in terms of the bit-error-rate (BER). The obtained analysis clearly shows that performance of two-symbol differential detection severely degrades in fast-fading channels and reaches an irreducible error floor at high signal-to-noise ratio region. To overcome the error floor experienced with fast-fading, a practical suboptimal "multiple-symbol" detection (MSD) is designed and its performance is theoretically analysed. The analysis of CDD and MSD are verified and illustrated with simulation results under different fading scenarios. Specifically, the obtained results show that the proposed MSD can significantly improve the system performance in fast-fading channels.
