Interference Analysis for Dedicated Indoor WCDMA Systems

This paper presents simulation results on the other-cell to own-cell interference values and traffic capacity for dedicated indoor WCDMA systems. In the simulation, an outdoor WCDMA network with sectorised antennas, pilot power and soft handover is considered. The interference factor determines the maximum cell load, i.e. the maximum number of users in the cells.

Metaphorical archaeology and the language of objects: Discussing the existence of a "Medieval" period, the dimensions of archaeology, the relationship between archaeology and history and the language of objects, it is argued that the established discipline of Medieval archaeology should be replaced with a historical archaeology without use of the concept "Medieval".

Lifetimes, branching fractions, and oscillator strengths of doubly ionized Tungsten

A first small set of W III oscillator strengths has been obtained from combined lifetime and branching fraction measurements. The branching fractions in the wavelength region of 154-334 nm were measured with a Penning discharge and a Fourier transform spectrometer. Three levels have been calibrated on absolute scales with lifetimes measured with the time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence techniq

A fast algorithm for computing distance spectrum of convolutional codes

New rate-compatible convolutional (RCC) codes with high constraint lengths and a wide range of code rates are presented. These new codes originate from rate 1/4 optimum distance spectrum (ODS) convolutional parent encoders with constraint lengths 7-10. Low rate encoders (rates 115 down to 1/10) are found by a nested search, and high rate encoders (rates above 1/4) are found by rate-compatible punc

Effect of effort on self-image: monotonically increasing self-image functions

The model of moral motivation as developed by Brekke et al. (2003) is analysed with the new assumption that self-image is an increasing function of effort. While the effects of increased efficiency and new information on optimal effort levels are similar, different results are obtained when individuals are faced with volunteering opportunities with and without non-participation fees. Most signific

Phenotypes in Defined Genotypes Including Siblings with Usher Syndrome.

Objective: To characterize visual function in defined genotypes including siblings with Usher syndrome. Methods: Thirteen patients with phenotypically different subtypes of Usher syndrome, including 3 families with affected siblings, were selected. Genetic analysis and ophthalmological examinations including visual fields, full-field electroretinography (ERG), multifocal electroretinography (mf ER

Improving Incident Reports in the Swedish Armed Forces

It is generally maintained that learning should be a part of the daily routines of many organizations; this is often referred to as lesson learned processes. The purpose of organizational learning is to foster improvements that seek to both reduce incidents and accidents and reduce their consequences when they nevertheless happen. Safety work is widespread among many organizations, e.g. aviation,

Study of Doubletalk Detection Performance in the Presence of Acoustic Echo Path Changes

An efficient and well-performing double-talk detection (DTD) algorithm is a vital part of a practically working acoustic echo canceller. However, recent algorithms are typically evaluated using a static time-invariant room acoustic impulse response, omitting a proper treatment of the case when the acoustic path is changing. In this work, we introduce a common framework to objectively evaluate how

Application of frequency and sample entropy to discriminate long-term recordings of paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common arrhythmia in clinical practice. At an early stage of the disease, AF may terminate spontaneously and is then referred to as paroxysmal AF. On the other hand, when external intervention is required for the arrhythmia to terminate, it is referred to as persistent AF. In this work, a method to discriminate between paroxysmal and persistent AF in the long-t

Study II: Mechanoreceptive sensation is of increased importance for human postural control under alcohol intoxication.

Standing postural stability relies on input from visual, vestibular, proprioceptive and mechanoreceptive sensors. When the information from any of these sensors is unavailable or disrupted, the central nervous system maintains postural stability by relying more on the contribution from the reliable sensors, termed sensory re-weighting. Alcohol intoxication is known to affect the integrity of the v

Sjukdom och ohälsa vid sjukförsäkringens gränser - diagnosprofiler för avslags- och indragningsärenden

Under en sexmånaders period beslutade Försäkringskassan i fem län att avslå eller dra in sjukpenningen helt eller delvis i 538 ärenden. De försäkrade bedömdes inte vara arbetsoförmögna till följd av sjukdom. I den här undersökningen visas att risken för negativt beslut varierar kraftigt för olika diagnoser och att det är vissa typer av sjukdom och ohälsa som fastnar i den skärpta gränskontrollen.

Sex Differences in Stroke Care and Outcome in the Swedish National Quality Register for Stroke Care.

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Previous reports concerning sex-related differences in stroke management and outcome are inconsistent and are sometimes difficult to interpret. We used data from a national stroke register to further explore possible differences between men and women in baseline characteristics, stroke treatment, and outcome. METHODS: This study included 24 633 stroke events registered in R

Review of "Børglum Domkirke og Kloster i middelalderen" (2013)

Metalepsis out of Bounds

This is a review of the panel “Metalepsis out of Bounds” presented at the 2013 ENN conference. The three convenors proposed complementary remarks to the extent that they either questioned the conceptualization, examined the functioning of metalepsis or applied theoretical models to textual material. Beside an in depth reflection upon the concept, broader questions concerning narrative and popular
