Both of the selection and search complexity can be reduced significantly. The method per-forms the tradeoff between computational complexity and system performance by adjusting the neighborhood size to select the valid search points. Simulation results show that the performance is comparable to that of the ML detection while the complexity is only as the small fraction of ML.展开更多

And the digital lock-in amplifier is more suitable for meastwing lowfrequency weak signal. Digital signal sequence is obtained through sampling signal measured over an integer number of signal periods, but digital reference sequence is acquired through mathematical operation, then digital phase sensitive detection can be implemented by calculating the cross-correlation function of digital signal sequence and digital reference sequence. In addition, the frequency response and phase character of the digital lock-in amplifier is analyzed. Finally, the designed digital lock-in amplifier is achieved. Expermental results show that the digital lock-in amplifier can be used for measuring weak signal with low ignal-to-noise ratio.展开更多

This strategy utilized the magnetic particles (MNPs) for the immobilization of linker DNA and CdS NPs and the subsequent target DNA hybridization. Using the unique characteristic of nicking endonuclease for cutting one specific strand of double strand DNA (ds DNA), the linker DNA could be transected and the target DNA could be liberated for re-hybridization and hence the amount of released CdS NPs was enhanced. Due to the advantage of the MNPs and signal amplification from the target recycling, the analyte DNA could be detected by the square-wave stripping voltammetry (SWV) in a wide linear range from 0.4 fM to 100 fM with the detection limit down to 0.08 fM. The proposed DNA detection strategy possesses high sensitivity, satisfactory reproducibility and excellent stability, which might have potential in other DNA biological assays.展开更多
