A Model-Based Approach to Demodulation of Co-Channel MSK Signals
… techniques for the demodulation of co-channel MSK signals. It is shown that MSK signals can be written in the linear model form, hence a minimum variance unbiased (MVU) estimator exists that satisfies the Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) with equality. This framework allows us to derive the best …

An investigation into non-linear propagation of MSK with a view to specifying an adaptive equalizer
… digital microwave radio link which employs MSK modulation, in order to specify a suitable form of adaptive equalization. MSK is a coherent modulation technique, having improved spectral roll-off over FSK because it avoids the abrupt phase changes at the bit transitions. However computer …

Professional practice influences : a sequential qualitative investigation on MSK assessment of the diabetic foot and podiatry practice
Within the UK public sector, the present healthcare landscape is a result of changing priorities over the last few decades with health care policies requiring healthcare professionals to adapt to new ways of working. These policies reflect the need to sustain a health service which can cope with …

Evaluating the musculoskeletal health state of intensive care unit survivors
… Care Unit (ICU) admission. Musculoskeletal (MSK) conditions may be complex in presentation, with ICU survivors potentially at greater risk of their development. The MSK health state of ICU survivors and the relationship to physical function and wider participation remains largely unknown. The …

The reliability and validity development of an MSK profiling tool and its value in youth athletes and prospective injury risk
… the development of a clinically feasible MSK qualitative profiling tool, and its subsequent application in adolescent athletes to improve profiling practise and the potential future impact of injury burden and incidence.Research started by critically evaluating the literature to establish …

A study of the minimum shift keying modulation scheme
… with the study of the Minimum Shift Keying (MSK) modulation scheme. The aspects considered are its operation under non-linear conditions as well as an investigation into the hardware implementation of both coherent and non-coherent MSK modems. The literature on digital data transmission and …

The function of Drosophila Integrin-Dim7-Elmo-Mbc→Rac signaling pathway in the muscle attachment formation and maintenance
… Importin-7 (Dim7), encoded by moleskin (msk), as a potential Elmo-interacting protein. In msk mutants, which exhibit muscle detachment phenotypes, the tendon cell differentiation factors Stripe or activated Mitogen-activated kinase (pMAPK) are missing from the tendon cells. Our data shows …

Multi-h synchronisation for codes with long constraints-length
… potential is the new Massey-Hodgart coherent MSK demodulator. In a significant departure from standard quadrature structures, this MSK demodulator uses matched filter detection with a pair of reference signals at the two MSK signaling frequencies; an optimal maximum-likelihood bit decision is …

Consequences of Adolescent Sport-Related Concussion and Musculoskeletal Injury: Examining Long-term Impacts on Body Composition and Physical Activity Levels
… history of either SRC or musculoskeletal (MSK) injury relative to uninjured controls (UC). Data were collected for 268 individuals participating through the SHRed Consequences of Concussion cohort study. Analyses displayed that SRC and MSK injury cohorts relative to UC had comparable body …

Exploring the long-term consequences of musculoskeletal impairment following critical illness
… function for patients with musculoskeletal (MSK) ill health being present in 59% of critical care survivors. To date, post-ICU rehabilitation interventions have failed to demonstrate sustained improvement in physical function. Understanding the perspectives of patients, family members, and …

A Model-Based Receiver for CPM Signals in a Cochannel Interference Limited Environment
… in presence of CCI. Minimum shift keying (MSK), which is a special case of CPM, is a very popular modulation format around the world. Frequency detectors, such as the limiter-discriminator permit the non-coherent demodulation of MSK signals. High-resolution frequency estimation appears as a …

Utilization of Musculoskeletal Sonography in Detecting Physiologic Changes of the Median Nerve in a Working Animal Model
… must be investigated. Utilizing musculoskeletal (MSK) sonography, it is hypothesized that earlier, less afflictive physiologic changes to the median nerve can be visualized and quantified, with the goal of providing enough pathophysiologic information to aid in the diagnosis of CTS. By detecting …

The impact of chiropractic manipulation on pain, functional outcomes and gait symmetry in dogs with mobility impairments using clinical measurement and gait analysis instruments
Musculoskeletal (MSK) disorders are a leading cause of pain and mobility impairments in dogs, yet conservative treatment options remain limited. Animal chiropractic care is increasingly utilized to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance athletic performance; however, empirical evidence …

Long COVID related inflammatory processes. What is its impact on bone, joints and musculoskeletal microvascular haemodynamics?
… recovery, including fatigue, musculoskeletal (MSK) pain, and reduced quality of life. It has been hypothesised that chronic low-grade inflammation in LC could affect bone metabolism, joint health, and skeletal muscle microcirculation, but there is no or limited evidence relating to this. Aim: …

A likelihood ratio analysis of digital phase modulation
… simple optimal receiver of minimum shift keying (MSK) has been shown to result from the mathematical simplification of its likelihood ratio into a single term. The log-likelihood ratio then becomes a linear sum of metrics which can be implemented as a so-called simplified receiver, comprising only …
