Enhanced LMMSE equalizer for high-speed single frequency network in HSDPA
2011
Currently, considerable interest has been shown in the research and standardization communities in multicell transmission schemes for HSPA, with a number of possible schemes under discussion that include Multiflow, Fast Cell Switching (FCS) and High-Speed Single Frequency Network (HS-SFN). In particular, HS-SFN is a promising technique that not only combines received energy from participating cells, but also reduces intercell interference with low UE complexity. In principle, HS-SFN can be implemented with a small modification to an LMMSE receiver at the UE. This paper introduces a more advanced LMMSE equalizer for High-Speed Single Frequency Network in HSDPA that achieves further performan…
Analyses of Dual Polarization WDM and SCM Radio over Fiber and Radio over FSO for C-RAN Architecture
2016
En este trabajo se simulan y verifican experimentalmente los esquemas de transmisión para una Arquitectura de Red de Acceso Radio Centralizada (C-RAN) basados en la combinación de dos tecnologías: Radio sobre Fibra (RoF) y Radio sobre FSO (RoFSO). Las configuraciones propuestas se optimizan para la evolución a largo plazo (LTE) con un ancho de banda de 20 MHz utilizando una modulación de amplitud en cuadratura de 64-QAM en términos de magnitud de vector de error (EVM). En primer lugar, se comparan las mediciones de la multiplexación por división de polarización mediante la combinación de RoF y RoFSO (PDM-RoF/FSO) con los modelos de simulación. Esto se amplía con la combinación de PDM-Multip…
Effect of Channel-Quality Indicator Delay on HSDPA Performance
2007
This paper evaluates the effect of the channel estimation inaccuracy on the performance of an HSDPA system. This study provides some results from system level simulations that have been conducted over a very complete dynamic simulator which models an HSDPA system full compliant with specifications. This emulator allows performing multi-user transmission and link adaptation with a limited modulation and coding scheme (MCS) selection based on the channel quality indicator (CQI) modes. Many factors such as the user equipment (UE) speed, the employed scheduling algorithm or the traffic load have been considered in the assessment. Moreover the intrinsic constraints of a WCDMA system like HSDPA h…
Occupational emerging risks affecting international virtual project Team Results
2017
The expansion of internet access, high-speed connection services, collaborative work platforms and tools, allowed employees to interact virtually offering companies the possibility to develop projects around the world, reducing operational costs and gain competitive advantage. Realizing the advantages and disadvantages of developing a project team in an international virtual work environment, requires adopting specific strategies to construct an effective team and ensure the project success. One of the most important disadvantages that we identified is that the new work environment brings new risks for both team members and managers. So, it becomes mandatory to identify and analyze the occu…
A distributed control system for citric fruits conservation and maturation based on CAN and Internet networks
2007
In citric fruits conservation and maturation systems it is very important to have precise information about parameters that indicate the citric fruit state. This information allows computing the appropriate control actions in order to achieve an optimum controlled citric fruit conservation and maturation. Last technological advances must be also used in this agriculture field to forget the rudimentary control systems that are being used at the present time. This paper describes a new distributed control system devoted to control citric fruits cold chambers that applies the last computer and electronics techniques. It is structured over different communication networks, making possible a rem…
Not Worth the Net Worth? The Democratic Dilemmas of Privileged Access to Information
2017
In this article, we discuss the democratic conditions for parliamentary oversight in EU foreign affairs. Our point of departure is two Interinstitutional Agreements (IIAs) between the Council and the European Parliament (EP), which provide the latter with access to sensitive documents. To shed light on this issue, we ask to what extent these contribute to the democratic accountability in EU foreign policy? It is argued that the IIAs have strengthened the EP’s role in EU foreign affairs by giving it access to information to which it was previously denied. This does not mean, however, that this increase in power equals a strengthening of the EP as a democratic accountability forum. First of a…
The efficacy of single suture for exit site wound closure and stabilization of hemodialysis central tunneled catheter
2021
Introduction: The majority of the end-stage renal disease patients begin hemodialysis with the central tunneled catheter as a permanent or bridge vascular access. The procedure of central tunneled catheter insertion can be complicated by exit site bleeding, prolonged tunnel healing, and infection. The study aimed at evaluating whether the catheter exit site wound closing with a single-suture method is equally effective as the double suture method, which is most frequently applied. The assumption was that the single-suture method, which is less traumatizing for the skin, could offer an advantage for the patients with “paper” skin, that is, elderly, after long-term immunosuppressive treatment…

Constrained Role Mining
2013
Role Based Access Control (RBAC) is a very popular access control model, for long time investigated and widely deployed in the security architecture of different enterprises. To implement RBAC, roles have to be firstly identified within the considered organization. Usually the process of (automatically) defining the roles in a bottom up way, starting from the permissions assigned to each user, is called {\it role mining}. In literature, the role mining problem has been formally analyzed and several techniques have been proposed in order to obtain a set of valid roles. Recently, the problem of defining different kind of constraints on the number and the size of the roles included in the resu…
Investigating Low Level Protocols for Wireless Body Sensor Networks
2016
The rapid development of medical sensors has increased the interest in Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) applications where physiological data from the human body and its environment is gathered, monitored, and analyzed to take the proper measures. In WBANs, it is essential to design MAC protocols that ensure adequate Quality of Service (QoS) such as low delay and high scalability. This paper investigates Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols used in WBAN, and compares their performance in a high traffic environment. Such scenario can be induced in case of emergency for example, where physiological data collected from all sensors on human body should be sent simultaneously to take appropria…
