This thesis considers the design of receivers for multi-user communication systems based on asynchronous direct-sequence code-division multiple-access (DS-CDMA). Its primary aim is to improve current receiver designs which exhibit shortcomings in systems using long sequence spreading (where the spreading sequence…

This dissertation offers both a theoretical investigation into the relationships between narrative, knowledge and personhood and a literary critical analysis of a group of Samuel Beckett's works in which narrative, knowledge and personhood are the central themes., I present an…
