Impact of antenna choices on the reliability of mobile broadband transmission at millimetre - wave frequencies

This paper deals with the impact of several antenna chices on the radio transmission performance within a cellular Mobile Broaband System (MBS) currently under research in Europe. Several antenna types are considered, namely switchable-beam antennas and adaptive antennas employing a phased array approach.

Adaptive transceiver - antenna techniques for mobile broadband communications at millimetre - wave frequencies

This paper is concerned with the implementation of a Mobile Broadband System, currently under research in Europe. We present a low-complexity, adaptive transceiver/antenna approach where simple, linear, phased arrays are adjusted under a transmission quality measurement provided by a decision-feedback equalizer. Several simulation results are presented and discussed.

On the applications of a compact autonomous acoustic recorder

A number of acoustic A compact acoustic recorder, primarily designed for underwater noise monitoring, is presented in this paper. The Self-Register Hydrophone has been used in several occasions during the past three years, in underwater noise monitoring activities. However, this kind of device also find application in other areas such as array processing and passive acoustic monitoring of marine mammals. An overview on the application of the Self-Register Hydrophone is given herein.
