About Ronald Ragonetti

With over 30 years working in the engineering field with emphasis on electrical and computer applications, I have always had a strong passion for mathematics and most especially teaching it to others. With several years experience in both classroom and at home tutoring, I have decided to establish an 'ONLINE' tutoring service. My objectives are not only to help solve your math problems but also to enable you to acquire the tools and understanding in how to solve problems in mathematics on your own. Being successful in mathematics means being able to identify, for the problem at hand, the solution process that best fits. That's the key to math success and it takes doing many problems to become proficient. I will strive to help you with this technique for a reasonable fee schedule. On a personal note, I have been married for over 28 years and have a wonderfully supportive wife and two full grown children who are now pursuing exciting careers of their own. I appreciate fully the difficult global economic times we are currently engaged with, and one of the keys to survival is continued learning and education. We must all work to enable the very best we can be and I hope to be able to share some of my knowledge with you to facilitate this process.

Combination Sequences for Spread Spectrum Communications
Milstein, L.; Ragonetti, R.

Communications, IEEE Transactions on Volume 25, Issue 7, Jul 1977 Page(s): 691 - 696 Digital Object Identifier Summary: Certain communication systems which employ spread spectrum techniques as a means of supporting multiple users need very long codes to guard against the threat of intentional jamming, but cannot tolerate the lengthy acquisition time which long codes usually require. As a possible solution to this problem, the use of combination sequences has been suggested, and this paper presents some new results, both analytical and numerical, on this technique.
