Potential Architecture for Future Generation "Green" Wireless Base Station

Current radio frequency power amplifiers (PAs) in 3G base stations have very high power consumption leading to a hefty cost and negative environmental impact. In this paper, we propose a potential architecture design for future wireless base station. Issues associated with components of the architecture are investigated. A comparison of PA with pulse width modulation drive and PA with envelope eli

Cellular and Molecular Aspects of the Germinal Centre Reaction

The humoral immune response to a T cell dependent protein antigen will over time generate antibodies with an increased affinity to the antigen. This is due to a process known as affinity maturation and proceeds in a, for this purpose, well designed micro-milieu within secondary lymphoid organs known as germinal centres. The increase in affinity of an antibody in, e.g. mouse and man is due mainly t

Distances between Requirements Engineering and Later Software Development Activities: A Systematic Map

[Context and Motivation] The main role of requirements engineering (RE) is to guide development projects towards implementing products that will appeal to customers. To effectively achieve this RE needs to be coordinated with and clearly communicated to the later software development activities. [Question/Problem] Communication gaps between RE and other development activities reduce coordination a

Low power 0.18μm CMOS dual-band front-end

A dual-band CMOS front-end was designed and fabricated in a 0.18 μm CMOS process. The front-end employs a common-gate low noise amplifier (LNA) with capacitive cross coupling (CCC) technique and a passive mixer. The band selection is performed by switching a capacitor in and out of the LNA load, changing the resonance frequency between 2.2GHz and 4.0GHz. The measured noise figure is below 3.5dB fo

The van der Waals interaction between colloidal particles and its molecular interpretation

We discuss the relation between a description of the van der Waals interaction between colloidal partic es based on a molecular picture of matter with the Lifshitz description based on quantum electrodynamics. The main observations are as follows: (i) Starting from the Lifshitz description one can derive the exact Hamaker result for the dispersion interaction by applying the Clausius-Mossotti form

Cultural probes

How can qualitative and emotional aspects from users be mapped at the same time as they get something meaningful in return? This case study has developed the use of cultural probes [1] with a selection of ten families with small children in the Öresund region. The idea was to evoke thoughts about recreation and living for the probe users while providing information and inspiration to the scientist
