Abstract: A fabrication method for a filter containing tragacanthin-polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers includes obtaining a homogenous tragacanthin-PVA solution by obtaining a PVA solution by dissolving PVA in distilled water, and adding tragacanthin to the PVA solution. The method may further include obtaining a support layer by coating a stainless steel mesh with a thin layer of a hydrophobic polymer, coating a stainless steel mesh with the thin layer of the hydrophobic polymer comprising electrospinning a hydrophobic polymer solution onto the stainless steel mesh, and forming a tragacanthin-PVA nanofibrous web on the support layer by electrospinning the homogenous tragacanthin-PVA solution onto the support layer.

Abstract: The various embodiments herein provide a method and system for reducing Out of Band Radiation in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM). The method includes transmitting a plurality of signals with a plurality of modulated symbols on each subcarrier. The method includes introducing a controlled amount of correlation among the consecutive modulated symbols across time. Further the method includes removing the controlled amount of correlation among the plurality of modulated symbols. The method also includes reducing an out of band radiation in OFDM. The system for reducing Out of Band Radiation in Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) includes a transmitter to transmit one or more signals with a plurality of modulated symbols on each subcarrier. The system includes a transmitter with digital filters and a receiver. The receiver includes a Maximum Likelihood Sequence Detector (MLSD) to remove the controlled amount of correlation among the plurality of modulated symbols.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process, which is used to eliminate heavy metal cations from the aqueous media, and provides a better solution for the existing problems of the separation systems like low efficiency and high costs. The heavy metal cations selected for this purpose are cadmium, lead and copper. The separation system consists of a two stage process: In the first stage, the iron oxide nanoparticles are suspended in an aqueous medium contaminated with the heavy metal cations. In the second stage, the solution is brought into contact with a ferromagnetic matrix (or a paramagnetic matrix) magnetized by the application of an outside magnetic field. The heavy metal cations are deposited on the matrix under the imposed magnetic field. This two-stage process makes it possible to separate the heavy metal cations from the aqueous medium. The wire matrices are upon the completion of separation washed away by water or air current.
