A Beamforming Algorithm for MIMO SWIPT Systems
Authors: Vien Nguyen Duy-Nhat
Published: June 2018

Efficient usage of energy resources is a growing concern in todayâ€™s communication systems. Energy harvesting is a new paradigm and allows the nodes to recharge their batteries from the environment. In this paper, we focus on the design of optimal linear beamformer for multi- input multi-output (MIMO) simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) system. We formulate the problem of maximizing the information rate while keeping the energy harvested at the energy receivers above given levels. Finally, simulation results demonstrate the efï¬ciency of the proposed algorithm.
Enabling Key Technologies and Emerging Research Challenges Ahead of 5G Networks: An Extensive Survey
Authors: Amali C. , Ramachandran B.
Published: June 2018

The evolution towards 5G networks is expected to slake the growing thirst of internet traffic with improved Quality of Service (QoS) and reduced energy consumption and cost. The increased penetration of smart devices and induction of arising multimedia applications, together with high quality video services are already crafting a milestone on existing cellular networks. These surging demands dictate that radical enhancements need to be made in cellular architecture to drift towards ultra-dense networks. The 5G system is envisioned to achieve improved data rate, increased capacity, decreased latency, and enhanced spectral efficiency in order to provide technical solution for the challenges behind the cellular networks. Thus, the 5G era is emerging to quench the increasing demand for network capacity, to manage explosive growth of traffic patterns and to face the challenges caused by the proliferation of versatile applications and high-end devices. In this paper, we make a broad survey on 5G cellular network architecture and some of the promising key technologies such as cloud RAN (Radio Access Network), Software-Defined Networking (SDN), Network Function Virtualization (NFV) and modulation formats. Finally, this ground-breaking survey highlights major existing research issues and possible future research directions in the next new era of mobile wireless networks.
From the 2005 Constitution’s ‘Permissive Consensus’ To TTIP’s ‘Empowering Dissensus’: The EU as a Playing Field for Spanish Civil Society
Authors: Bouza Luis , Oleart Alvaro
Published: June 2018

The negotiations of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP) saw the development of a transnational campaign that gained momentum as the negotiations reached a critical status, including in Spain. The Spanish anti-TTIP campaign is interesting in that it has gained some salience among media, civil society, trade unions and some political parties in a country where trade and EU affairs are rarely controversial. In order to explain the transformation of the attitudes of Spanish civil society vis-à-vis the EU in the case of TTIP, we formulated descriptive and explanatory research questions, respectively: how is the mobilisation against TTIP different from the traditional involvement of Spanish civil society actors in EU issues? Why have actors which did not work together in previous campaigns cooperated in the case of TTIP? We analyse the Spanish anti-TTIP campaign, and we argue that the change of positions of Spanish civil society actors in relation to the EU in the case of TTIP can be explained on the basis of a change in the field, a notion that is suggestive because of the degree of continuity in the identity of the entrepreneurs of the anti-TTIP campaign in relation to past EU-critical mobilisations. Rather than an increased political cost of EU decision-making at national level, we argue that the introduction of EU-critical ideas can lead to an ‘empowering dissensus’ where the ability to mobilise citizens on EU issues acquires a renewed importance. We tackle our puzzle through a combination of methods, using semi-structured interviews and network analysis.

Model of long-length part flattening by mobile local bend
Authors: Королев Альберт , Korolev Albert , Решетников Михаил , Reshetnikov Mihail , Савран Сергей , Savran Sergey
Published: June 2018

In the paper there is described a method of flattening and stabilization of geometrical parameters of long-length parts. The method is based on the formation of a uniform area displacement of an elasto-plastic deformation formed by a bending moment at continuous rotation of a part which results in the occurrence of multi-cycle loading. Because of the action of controlled multi-cycle loading takes place an accumulation and further relaxation of inner stresses.

The process of flattening and stabilization of geometrical parameters is described by a simulator showing a tie between geometrical, physic-mechanical and technological parameters. At the heart of a simulator is an energy approach to the description of an elasto-plastic deformation of a part at multi-cycle loading.

Authors: Basnet Sunila , KC Shiva Raj , KC Geetika
Published: June 2018

Introduction: Non neoplastic lesions of cervix form a wide variety of lesions in the cervical biopsy specimen or hysterectomy specimens. Chronic cervicitis is the commonest finding; but can be associated with other underlying pathologies. In our study we aim to study and categorize the morphology of non neoplastic lesions of cervix in cervical biopsy specimen or hysterectomy specimens into inflammatory, reparative or reactive lesions, glandular hyperplasia, metaplasia and ectopies and benign neoplasm.Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective study that consisted of 520 slides retrieved from the records of department of histopathology KIST medical college. Whenever required block were retrieved and recut sections were made. All the benign lesions were included in the study.Results: The commonest lesions diagnosed were inflammatory, reparative or reactive changes 513 (98.6%) cases, followed by metaplastic changes 311 (59.8%) and glandular hyperplasia in 44 cases (8.4%). Benign neoplasms were seen in 33(6.3%) cases.Conclusions: Cervix is a target organ for varieties of neoplastic and non neoplastic diseases. There are many benign mimics of malignant cervical lesions. It may be difficult to interpret adequately in a small biopsy specimen however it is necessary to distinguish between these benign lesions and their mimics to prevent unnecessary inappropriate treatment to the patient.Nepalese Medical Journal. vol.1, No. 1, 2018, Page : 1-4

Authors: Bhandari Sunita
Published: June 2018

Introduction: Stress has been linked to reproductive failure which includes miscarriage and Infertility. Several studies showed high levels of psychological stress and stress biomarkers in women with reproductive failure. However, very few studies are done to measure the stress response. So the current study sought to assess whether women with reproductive failure have exaggerated acute stress response.Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional comparative study. Blood samples were collected immediately after venipuncture, and again 20 min later from 15 fertile controls, 20 recurrent miscarriage patients, and 40 infertile patients to measure natural killer cells and cortisol levels.Results: The percentage of peripheral blood NK cells (total CD3-CD56+) and serum total cortisol level did not change significantly across the two samples of immediately after venipuncture, and again 20 min later in the fertile controls (p=0.358,and p=0.890 respectively). However, there was a significant decline in the second sample in women with Infertility (p<0.05 for serum cortisol and p<0.05 for NK cell) and with recurrent miscarriage (p<0.05 for serum cortisol). There was a decline of NK cell in the 2nd sample in women with recurrent miscarriage though not to significant level (P>0.05).Conclusions: Women with recurrent miscarriage and Infertility may be more vulnerable to acute stressor.Nepalese Medical Journal, vol.1, No. 1, 2018, Page: 17-20

Günümüzde,
hızla değişen dünya ekonomik sisteminde, raporlama sistemi de bir değişim ve
gelişim sürecine girmiş bulunmaktadır diyebiliriz. Artık işletmeler, kara
odaklanan geleneksel raporlama yerine, sosyal ve çevresel bilgiler veren
sürdürülebilirlik raporlaması yapmaya başlamışlardır. Bu çalışmada Türkiye’de
faaliyet gösteren geleneksel ve katılım bankalarının sosyal ve çevresel
alanlarda faaliyet raporlarında yaptıkları açıklamalara bakılarak,  sürdürülebilirlik puanları belirlenmiş, daha
sonra çoklu regresyon analizi yardımıyla sürdürülebilirlik puanları ile
belirlenen değişkenler arasındaki ilişkiye bakılmıştır. Ayrıca t-testi ile de,
belirlenen değişkenlerin grupları ve ek olarak da bankaların türlerine göre bölümlenmiş
grupları arası anlamlı bir fark olup olmadığına bakılmıştır. Çalışmada
sürdürülebilirlik puanları ile ilişkisi olması beklenen 7 tane bağımsız
değişken kullanılmıştır. Bunlar, büyüklük, ülke menşei, sahiplik yapısı,
kaldıraç oranı, likidite, karlılık ve yaştır. Sürdürülebilirlik puanları,
Birleşmiş Milletler Çevre Programı Sürdürülebilirlik Kriterleri raporunda yer
alan puanlama sistemi esas alınarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada sürdürülebilirlik
puanları sosyal ve çevresel olarak iki farklı boyutta hesaplanmıştır. Veriler
analiz edilirken bu iki boyut hem ayrı olarak, hem de bu puanların toplamı
alınarak analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada, kukla değişkenler olan sahiplik yapısı
ve ülke menşei ile sürdürülebilirlik puanları arasında istatistiki olarak anlamlı
bir ilişki bulunamazken, regresyon sonuçlarına göre ise de, modele sadece
sahiplik yapısı, kaldıraç oranı, likidite ve karlılık değişkenleri dahil
edilebilmiştir. Çalışmanın t-testi sonuçlarına göre büyüklük, likidite,
karlılık, yaş, çevre puanı ve sürdürülebilirlik puanları ile banka türleri
arasında anlamlı bir ilişki olduğu görülmüştür.

This paper is aimed at describing of how a culture relates to its community. Culture and community are two aspects that are not integral but interconnected each other. Every community must have a certain culture as inherent traits that mark a particular group. Culture can be used as a mirror to look at the characteristics of these groups. One element that can reflect the culture of a community is the lyrics of traditional songs; a kind of traditional poems. The lyrics of the traditional songs can reflect some social characters of the community of where the culture is attached. This study is a kind of qualitative research which applies a listening method of analysis by using ethnolinguistics approach. The object of the analysis is the poetic lyrics of a traditional song that is usually sang with tradisional music “s aluang”. The results of the analysis shows that some parts of Minangkabau characteristics are reflected in the poetic words used in the lyrics of “saluang”, such as the way of how Minangkabau people socially relating with families and with other community members. In other words, it can be said that a poetic lyric of a traditional song is the reflection of it’s community.AbstrakMakalah ini bertujuan untuk menjelaskan bagaimana sebuah kebudayaan terhubung dengan masyarakatnya.

Authors: Paryono Yani
Published: June 2018

Mass media takes an important role in the various aspects of human life, especially for information. Actual and factual information from a number of events and smart ideas of humans can immediately be obtained from kinds of mass media. Mass media is not only as modern information media but it also has a strategic role in the construction and development of Indonesian. The major problem in terms of the construction and development of Indonesian among other things is caused by the way the Indonesian people live that has changed either as the result of new rule of life such as the employment of free market as the implementation of globalization era, the rapid development of technology of information or the employment of autonomy of region. That condition has influenced the Indonesian people in having a speech and using Indonesian. Therefore, the role of mass media as a medium of the construction and development of Indonesian is very significant. One of the alternatives that can be carried out by the government is by publishing several government policies to empower the mass media involved in the various activities of construction and development of Indonesian directly.AbstrakMedia massa memiliki peran yang sangat strategis dalam berbagai aspek kehidupan manusia, khususnya di bidang informasi. Derasnya arus informasi dan pesatnya perkembangan bisnis media massa akhir-akhir ini, informasi tidak hanya menjadi kebutuhan, namun sudah menjadi komoditas yang profit oriented. Persoalan pembinaan dan pengembangan bahasa Indonesia di masyarakat merupakan masalah yang cukup kompleks. Persolan yang cukup mendasar kompleks terkait dengan pembinaan dan pengembangan bahasa Indonesia antara lain, kehidupan masyarakat Indonesia yang telah berubah baik sebagai akibat tatanan kehidupan dunia yang baru, seperti pemberlakuan pasar bebas dalam rangka globalisasi, akibat perkembangan teknologi informasi yang sangat pesat maupun pemberlakuan otonomi daerah. Media massa mampu menerobos batas ruang dan waktu sehingga keterbukaan tidak dapat dihindarkan. Kondisi itu telah mempengaruhi perilaku masyarakat Indonesia dalam bertindak dan berbahasa Indonesia. Oleh karena itu, peran media massa sebagai sarana untuk pembinaan dan pengembangan bahasa Indonesia sangat penting. Dalam makalah ini, penulis ingin mencoba memaparkan bagaimanakah peran strategis media massa dalam pembinaan dan pengembangan bahasa Indonesia? Salah satu alternatif yang dapat ditempuh pemerintah adalah dengan menerbitkan berbagai kebijakan pemerintah untuk memberdayakan media massa terlibat langsung dalam berbagai kegiatan pembinaan danpengembangan bahasa Indonesia.
