Augmented Reality (AR) has emerged as a technology able to greatly support the interaction between people and digital information by merging virtual objects with the real environment. So far, research in this field has been mainly focused on single-user scenarios with pre-stored digital data whose visualization needs to be appropriately and promptly aligned with physical objects. Instead, latest d
Given a set of commodities and a network where some arcs can fail while others are reliable, we first consider the problem of computing a minimum-cost pair of paths not sharing failing links. If a reliable link belongs to both paths then its cost is counted only once. We show that this problem can be solved in strongly polynomial time. Second, we consider a routing problem where each commodity can
In this technical report, we consider ultra light-weight constructions of message authentication in hardware applications. We examine several known constructions and evaluate details around their hardware implementations. These constructions are all based on the framework of universal hash functions.
This paper presents a method based on the phase dierence of arrival and the non-linear least square estimation to lo- calize a radio-frequency (RF) source, e.g a wireless capsule endoscope, inside the human body. The phase dierence of arrival at multiple frequencies of a signal is used to estimate the distance of the source to a receiver. The linear least square estimation is used to estimate the
The paper investigates advantages of using an MCCA-aware acknowledging system in IEEE 802.11s Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). The MCCA (MCF controlled channel access) protocol allows for reserving time slots for a point-topoint transmission over a wireless link. The protocol assures that the transmission will not be hindered by any other 802.11 device that uses MCCA, by preventing all neighbors of b
A new version of the stream cipher Grain-128 is proposed. The new version, Grain-128a, is strengthened against all known attacks and observations on the original Grain-128, and has built-in support for authentication. The changes are modest, keeping the basic structure of Grain-128. This gives a high confidence in Grain-128a and allows for easy updating of existing implementations.
In this paper we consider time-division-duplex (TDD) reciprocity calibration of a massive MIMO system. The calibration of a massive MIMO system can be done entirely at the base station (BS) side by sounding the BS antennas one-by-one while receiving with the other BS antennas. With an M antenna BS, this generates M(M - 1) signals that can be used for calibration purposes. In this paper we study se
Reliability in Ricean multiple-input-multipleoutput (MIMO) channels is crucial for safety-related vehicle-tovehicle (V2V) applications. In Ricean channels, there is a signalto- noise ratio-dependent critical data rate below which signaling with zero outage is possible. The link will be more reliable the higher this critical data rate is. We present results of spectral efficiency and outage probabi
Primary and backup paths in MPLS fast reroute (FRR) may be established as shortest paths according to the administrative link costs of the IP control plane, or as explicitly calculated arbitrary paths. In both cases, the path layout can be optimized so that the maximum link utilization for a set of considered failure scenarios is minimized. In this paper, we propose a linear program for the optimi
Successful projects require two key elements to be set: the time frame for the project and the scope of the project. Accurately deciding these two attributes greatly increases the probability of success. If, for example we would like to build a house, we should start building it in spring so that we can lie the foundations of the house on a non-frozen ground. Moreover, we know that we should be re
Introduction: Cold exposure alters muscular function. Muscle cooling influences the neuromuscular activation during maximal isometric voluntary contractions (MVC) and the amplitude of surface electromyography (sEMG) [1],[2]. It also slows down the mechanical process during contraction [3]. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of local cooling in cold water at 10 °C for 20 min i
Field delineation is important in bibliometrics. Particularly when measuring scientific performance, the demarcation of the area, to which a science actor belongs, is of the greatest importance. This paper present a method based on searches on Boolean combinations of medical subject headings (MeSH-terms) in a combined Web of Science (WoS) - Medline database. The construction of the MeSH area defin
Further exploitation of the spatial domain, as in Massive MIMO (MaMi) systems, is imperative to meet future communication requirements [1]. Up-scaling of conventional 4×4 small-scale MIMO implementations to MaMi is prohibitive in-terms of flexibility, as well as area and power cost. This work discloses a 1.1mm2 128×8 MaMi baseband chip, achieving up to 12dB array and 2× spatial multiplexing gains.
Measuring MIMO-SAR is an important part of mobile handset evaluation, following the introduction of uplink MIMO transmission schemes in LTE-Advanced. However, the measurement of MIMO-SAR is complex and time-consuming. In this paper, 6 unique dual-antenna mobile handsets, including both typical and novel designs, are analyzed to determine the dependence of MIMO-SAR on antenna configuration and corr
This paper presents a study on iconic programming support for mainly position-based lead-through programming of an ABB YuMi collaborative robot. A prototype tool supporting a hybrid programming and execution mode was developed and evaluated with 21 non-expert users with varying programming and robotics experience. We also present a comparison of the programming times for an expert robot programmer
A system has been developed to convert manual wheelchairs into electric wheelchairs, providing assistance to users through the implemented algorithm, which ensures safe driving and obstacle avoidance. While manual wheelchairs are typically controlled indoors based on user preferences, they do not guarantee safe driving in areas outside the user’s field of vision. The proposed model utilizes the dy
