An approach devised for shielding loss calculation and a model derived from it are outlined. The model handles a building of arbitrary dimensions occupied by wireless terminals with a given probability distribution and illuminated by a satellite. Two models for the probability distribution of the wireless terminals within a building are considered: uniform over the whole floor at a given height ab
Code inspections and structural unit testing are two common defect detection methods in software development. This paper analyses three replications of an experiment aimed at comparing which method finds more defects. The first two experiments use the same experimental design and materials, including the programs to be inspected or tested, while the third experiment replaces the programs with code
This paper presents a high-speed QR decomposition (QRD) processor targeting the carrier-aggregated 4 × 4 Long Term Evolution-Advanced (LTE-A) receiver. The processor provides robustness in spatially correlated channels with reduced complexity by using modifications to the Householder transform, such as decomposing-target redefinition and matrix real-valued decomposition. In terms of hardware desig
Many channel models for MIMO systems have appeared in the literature. However, with the exception of a few recent results, they are largely focussed on two dimensional (2D) propagation, i.e., propagation in the horizontal plane, and the impact of elevation angle is not considered. The assumption of 2D propagation breaks down when in some propagation environments the elevation angle distribution is
The Mobile Cloud Network is an emerging distributed cloud infrastructure paradigm that attempts to accommodate the evolution of application’s execution paradigms and how content is distributed. The Mobile Cloud Network employs a distributed cloud infrastructure with data centres of varying capacity, embedded in the core and access networks. Resources are thinned over the network and arguably decay
