description: In this work, an in-depth analysis concerning the transmission performance of IEEE802.11g/n (Wi-Fi) signals in a WDM-PON system is presented. It is considered that the optical/electrical transceivers are based on low-cost 850 nm VCSELs and PIN photodiodes. System modelling includes the impact of noise generated in the optical path, such as relative intensity noise (RIN), shot noise, photodetector thermal noise, clipping and intermodulation distortion. An analytic analysis based on Volterra series is conducted and mathematical expressions for both the EVM and SNR are derived. The theoretical analysis is also compared with experimental results. Among several conclusions, it is observed that the laser intermodulation distortion, clipping and RIN are the most relevant factors.

SIMULATING LONG TERM EVOLUTION SELF-OPTIMIZING BASED NETWORKS

Year: 2013
Subjects: Wireless Communications; LTE; SON; Automatic Neighbor Relation; Handover Optimization

description: With the first 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks being deployed more complexity is added to current existing cellular mobile networks and more capital (CAPEX) and operational (OPEX) effort will be needed. In addition, the rising demand of users for new services and higher data rates demands more efficiency from operators. For this matter, 3GPP Release 8 as introduced the Self-Organizing Network (SON) concept, a set of self-configuration, self-optimizing and self-healing functions that allow the automation of labor-intensive tasks, reducing operational and capital costs. While requirements on cutting operational expenditure remain, operators still remain skeptical with the efficiency of these functions. In this paper, Physical Cell Identity (PCI) conflict detection and resolution, Automatic Neighbor Relation (ANR) and automatic Handover Parameter Optimization (HPO) functions are proposed as part of a simulator for LTE SON based networks. Based on user defined inputs, these functions allow operators to closely predict and gather optimal policy input values for SON algorithms, while maintaining desirable network performance. Based on a real network scenario, results show simulator’s clear benefit when compared with other proposals.

title: Laboratory and Field Studies of Insecticide Impregnated Fibres for Mosquito Control
Creators: name: Miller, JE
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 1990

description: Laboratory and field studies were undertaken in an attempt to improve mosquito control with insecticide-treated fabrics. The efficacies of the emulsifiable concentrates (E.C.) of three pyrethroids were assessed on three types of fibre in order to establish the optimum combination for bednet use. Various pyrethroid formulations were compared for persistence and wash-fastness. Incorporation of polystyrene into the E.C. of permethrin increased its wash-resistance. Scanning electron microscope studies revealed a film of permethrin on impregnated nylon fibre which was not visible on similarly impregnated cotton fibre. Using an acoustic actograph to record flight activity and video to record behaviour, impregnated nylon was found to cause greater irritancy than impregnated cotton. The contact times for mosquitoes to pick-up lethal doses from permethrin and lambdacyhalothrin treated netting were established and related to the time that a hungry mosquito spends searching for a bloodmeal. Studies on sublethal effects of treated netting such as knock-down, leg fracture and feeding inhibition were carried out. Experimental hut trials of bednets were undertaken in The Gambia to compare five different insecticides, an insecticide mixture and two formulations incorporating polystyrene. The unwashed permethrin formulations strongly deterred hut entry by An.gambiae s.l. and Mansonia spp. but this effect was lost after washing the nets three times. The unwashed insecticide-treated nets killed a significantly higher percentage of An.gambiae s.l. that entered the huts than the untreated net. Washing treated nets decreased the percentages killed by them, with the exception of the wash-resistant permethrin which showed no significant change in the percentage of mosquitoes killed. This formulation killed a significantly higher percentage than the normal permethrin formulation after washing. The unwashed mixture of permethrin and pirimiphos-methyl treated net performed well over the 6 weeks of the trial, but chemical analyses at the end of this time showed very little of its pirimiphos-methyl remained on the net. The effects of all the nets on numbers entering and exiting from huts and numbers found killed and bloodfed are reported. A trial was carried out in a village to compare nets treated with the wash- resistant formulation of permethrin, normal E.C.s of permethrin and lambdacyhalothrin and placebo. The numbers of mosquitoes found over 16 weeks during weekly bednet searches of the insecticide treated nets were greatly reduced compared with the placebo treated nets. Analysis of bioassay mortality showed that the permethrin formulation containing polystyrene (wash-resistant) was significantly less affected by washing under village conditions than the normal permethrin and lambdacyhalothrin formulations.

description: The paper looks at the plight of Nigerian Women in terms of their developmental and economic opportunities which are often circumscribed by gender discrimination. They suffer the disadvantages of household division of labour, barrier to ownership of communal land and discriminatory inheritance practices which are deep rooted in the customary practices of the people. The community is a patrilineal one where a woman’s right to land is pegged on her marital status. A combination of methods was used to analyse this as a way of trying to proffer solutions to the issues highlighted.

description: The present work demonstrates the structural characterization of the butterfly-like 12-coordinate praseodymium(III) complex with 2-formylpyridine acetylhydrazone (FPAH). The complex was crystallized in the monoclinic crystal system with space group P21/n. The X-ray diffraction analysis of the complex reveals twelve-coordinated distorted icosahedrons for the PrN4O8 chromophore defined by two neutral chelating FPAH ligands as well as three-coordinated NO3 anions. The complex has a distorted icosahedral structure. The intermolecular interactions were supported by Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint plots. The absorption spectral titrations of the complex with CT-DNA reveal groove binding of the complex with DNA. The complex exhibited significant DNA cleavage activity in the absence of an oxidant.

description: This paper presents a study on resonant converter topologies targeted for CMOS integration. Design methodologies to optimize efficiency for the integration of Quasi-Resonant and Quasi-Square-Wave converters are proposed. A power loss model is used to optimize the design parameters of the power stage, including the driver circuits, and also to conclude about CMOS technology limitations. Based on this discussion, and taking as reference a 0.35μm CMOS process, two converters are designed to validate the proposal: a Quasi Resonant boost converter operating at 100MHz and a Quasi-Square-Wave buck converter operating at 70MHz. Simulation results confirm the feasibility of these topologies for monolithic integration.

The study begins with an objective description of the RF architecture and with the implementation of a RSSI analysis in real scenarios. The designed modules are using directional and omnidirectional antennas for each test scenario. In initial experiment is included a test on the 433Mhz band. The developed WSN architecture provides a higher degree of reliability at environments with denser structures (tunnels) and enables the use of directional and omnidirectional antennas for better signal behavior considering the structure of environment to propagation.

description: The first generation of wind turbine (WT) blades are now reaching their end of life, signalling the beginning of a large problem for the future. Currently most waste is sent to landfill, which is not an environmentally desirable solution. Awareness of this issue is rising, but no studies have fully assessed the eco impact of WT blades. The present study aims to provide a macroscopic quantitative assessment of the lifetime environmental impact of WT blades. The first stage has been to analyse global data to calculate the amount of WT blade materials consumed in the past. The life cycle environmental impact of a single WT blade has then been estimated using eco data for raw materials, manufacturing processes, transportation, and operation and maintenance processes. For a typical 45.2 meter 1.5 MW blade this is 795 GJ (CO2 footprint 42.1 tonnes), dominated by manufacturing processes and raw materials (96% of the total. Based on the 2014 installed capacity, the total mass of WTB is 78 kt, their energy consumption is 82 TJ and the carbon dioxide footprint is 4.35 Mt. These figures will provide a basis for suggesting possible solutions to reduce WTB environmental impact.

description: Abstract1— Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is a non-invasive biomedical imaging technique that provides high speed and high resolution three dimensional and cross sectional images of biological samples, in vivo and in situ. OCT applications targeting small animals is believed to bring developments in medical techniques, instruments, diagnosis and therapies for a number of human diseases as always have been the case of animal experimentation. With the swept source OCT (SS-OCT) system presented in this work, we were able to achieve performance parameters that meet the requirements to image the retina of small animals. Performance characteristics include 105 dB for system sensitivity, a roll-off below 1 dB/mm over 3 mm depth and an axial resolution of 8 μm. We describe the layout and acquisition/processing solutions towards fast imaging of in vivo samples.

description: The modulation technique Filter Bank Multi Carrier (FBMC) is an alternative widely studied in order to replace Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) in wireless telecommunications systems. The fact that FBMC does not use Cyclic Prefix and uses Polyphase Filters allows improvements in bit rate, bandwidth efficiency and robustness against multipath channel impairments. This implementation can bring advantages to Digital TV case in comparison to the traditional OFDM based systems because of the need to transmit higher resolution videos such as 4K and 8K. This article presents a study on the use of FBMC in Integrated System Digital Broadcasting Transmission B (ISDB-Tb), developing an application on GNURadio environment, analysing Bit Error Rate (BER) and power spectrum curves in a multipath channel.

description: Lead (Pb) is a toxic metal, which widespread use has resulted in environmental contamination, human exposure and significant public health problems. The autonomic nervous system, being a homeostatic controller, is impaired in acute and chronic lead exposure. In fact, sympathoexcitation associated to hypertension and tachypnea has been described together with baroreflex and chemoreflex dysfunction. However, up to date, no studies described the autonomic effects of an intermittent low-level lead exposure. In the present work, we addressed in vivo, autonomic behaviour in rats under chronic Pb exposure (control) and in rats under intermittent Pb exposure. For that, arterial blood pressure (BP) and ECG were recorded in 28 weeks old animal and low frequencies (LF) and high frequencies (HF) were determined (to estimate sympathetic and parasympathetic activities) using FisioSinal software with Wavelet module. Preliminary results: Rats intermittently exposed to lead showed a significant decrease in systolic BP (126 ± 4 vs 144 ± 3 mmHg) with no significant changes in LF, HF and LF/HF bands (1.5 ± 0.3 vs 1.7 ± 0.5 mmHg2, 1.9 ± 0.7 vs 2.8 ± 1.2 bpm2 and 1.2 ± 0.4 vs 1.1 ± 0.3 mmHg2/bpm2, respectively) when compared to chronically Pb exposed rats. Our data suggests that the autonomic dysfunction induced by lead exposure is similar in a chronic and intermittent Pb exposure. Nevertheless, it seems that an intermittent exposure was no effect on systolic BP values. The present study brings new insights on the environmental factors that influence autonomic and cardiovascular systems during development, which can help apprise public policy strategies to prevent and control the adverse effects of Pb toxicity.

description: Traffic collisions, in particular high speed car accidents often result in huge damages, long traffic queues and loss of human lives. In this work we present an intelligent modular system that monitors traffic in highways and alerts drivers of sudden stops, in poor visual conditions. The system is composed of several identical modules, to be placed in the middle of a highway’s lane, that sense the lights and communicate their presence and velocity to their neighbor modules via RF. With such information, the nearby modules estimate the velocity of the passing cars. When the module ahead detects a car passing at a much slower speed than what was previously estimated, it alerts the other modules, so they produce a visual indication for the oncoming drivers, preventing accidents. The system operates autonomously using solar energy harvesting.

The numerical solution obtained using such model is analyzed.The main result in this paper is the theoretical validation of the numerical solution via a verifications that such solution satisfies the necessary conditions of optimality in the form of a Maximum Principle. This way, we are giving further evidence of the optimality of the numerical solution found.

description: Proximity beacons provide simple, low-cost location data. However, beacon deployments remain rare. In this paper we introduce Bellrock, a framework that repurposes static personal devices (phones, laptops, etc.) as proximity beacons without revealing the location of the device owners, and provides conventional beacons with access control. This is done by using mutable pseudo-anonymous identifiers that can be unmasked by a cloud service. We develop Bellrock as a general framework, describing the repurposing scheme and the anonymisation techniques, before applying it to Bluetooth Low Energy beacons. We implement and demonstrate the scalability of the de-anonymisation server, which uses a series of heuristics. We implement a Bellrock client on Android and demonstrate negligible impact on battery lifetime. We evaluate Bellrock using extensive real-world office worker movements. We find that Bellrock was able to provide proximity locations for 8,542 of the 21,796 failed locations that would have occurred without it. We further find that office workers were in range of one or more of their co-workers over 90\% of the time, indicating Bellrock can provide relative proximity information even in the absence of a conventional beacon deployment. Overall, we find that Bellrock is both feasible and practical, providing a beacon deployment where there was none, or supplementing existing deployments.

description: [transcription] Monsieur,

Il y a plusieurs années que je désire l'honneur de faire connaissance avec vous, mais quoique je me suis flatté toujours de faire un voyage dans ce pays-là qui me procura cet avantage, mes occupations dans cette capitale m'ont empêché.

Une religieux de l'ordre de Saint Augustin qui à ce que je puis me souvenir est le bibliothécaire dans un couvent de Lyon et qui fait une collection de médailles et d'antiquités, me parla le premier de vous, Monsieur, il y a environ dix ans avec toute la justice qui est due à votre mérite, aussi des belles collections que vous avez ramassées et dans le voyage d'Italie et dans votre pays surtout des montagnes auprès de Nîmes avec toute sorte de pétrifications, ce qui m'a été confirmé par plusieurs personnes qui ont eu l'honneur de vous connaître et voir vos riches collections.

Je prends donc, Monsieur, la liberté de vous écrire sur les auspices de Monsieur de Haller ui m'a dit vous connaître particulièrement et j'espère, Monsieur, que par sa recommandation vous voudrez bien s'il vous est possible me communiquer des pétrifications de ce pays en échange d'autres que je pourrais vous fournir au cas que vous ne les ayez pas ou bien je vous enverrai des analogues dans l'état naturel, comme des coquilles des mers des Indes, de l'Amérique et autres des mines, des agates, jaspes, marbres alvastres & c.

Quoique mes collections de pétrifications soient assez étendues, nous voyons tous les jours de nouvelles productions de chaque pays, de chaque province et même de distance en distance à un petit nombre de lieux et j'ai trouvé [fol. 94 v] [Davila Janv. 1766] dans les envois qui m'ont été faits par mes correspondants, toujours quelque chose de nouveau qui m'a fait bien du plaisir.

Je vous prie, Monsieur, de vouloir bien autant qu'il vous sera possible de m'envoyer de toutes les différences de poissons que l'on trouve dans la montagne auprès de Nîmes et les autres pétrifications les mieux conservées qu'il soit possible et si vous avez des doubles d'Italie ou d'autres pays aussi. Demandez-moi ce qui vous souhaiterez, je vous enverrai ce que je pourrai avec un plaisir extrême et je tacherai de mériter votre estime par une sincère correspondance et un attachement inviolable.

J'ai l'honneur d'être très parfaitement, Monsieur, (Monsieur, si vous avez quelques tuyaux vermiculaires chambrés et des corailles articulés pétrifiés, vous m'obligerez beaucoup de m'envoyer et quelques fruits des animaux ou des parties)

Votre très humble et très obéissant serviteur

Davilas

A Paris, ce 30e janvier 1766.

Mon adresse

Davila rue de Richelieu

Vis-à-vis la Fontaine.

description: Background: Perinatal mental health disorders affect up to 20% of all women. Women of refugee background are likely to be at increased risk, yet little research has explored this. This study aimed to assess if women of refugee background are more likely to screen risk positive for depression and anxiety than non-refugee women, using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS); and if screening in pregnancy using the EPDS enables better detection of depression and anxiety symptoms in women of refugee background than routine care. Methods: This implementation study was conducted at an antenatal clinic in Melbourne, Australia. Women of refugee and non-refugee backgrounds were screened for depression using English or translated versions of the EPDS and a psychosocial assessment on a digital platform. The psychosocial assessment records of 34 women of refugee background receiving routine care (no screening) were audited. Results: Overall, 274 women completed the EPDS; 43% of refugee background. A similar proportion of women of refugee and non-refugee backgrounds had EPDS scores of ≥9 (39% vs. 40% p = 0.93). Women receiving the combined EPDS and psychosocial screening were more likely to receive a referral for further support than women receiving routine care (41% vs. 18%, p = 0.012). Conclusion: Similarly, high proportions of women of refugee and non-refugee backgrounds were at increased risk of experiencing a current depressive disorder in early pregnancy, suggesting pregnancy care systems should acknowledge and respond to the mental health needs of these women. Screening appeared to facilitate the identification and referral of women compared to routine care.

description: There is emerging interest in understanding group decision making among a team of health professionals. Groupthink, a term coined by Irving Janis to depict premature consensus seeking in highly cohesive groups, is a theory that has been widely discussed in disciplines outside health care. However, it remains unclear how it has been conceptualized, studied, and mitigated in the context of health professionals conducting patient care. This scoping review aimed to examine the conceptualization of groupthink in health care, empirical research conducted in healthcare teams, and recommendations to avoid groupthink. Eight databases were systematically searched for articles focusing on groupthink among health professional teams using a scoping review methodology. A total of 22 articles were included—most were commentaries or narrative reviews with only four empirical research studies. This review found that focus on groupthink and group decision making in medicine is relatively new and growing in interest. Few empirical studies on groupthink in health professional teams have been performed and there is conceptual disagreement on how to interpret groupthink in the context of clinical practice. Future research should develop a theoretical framework that applies groupthink theory to clinical decision making and medical education, validate the groupthink framework in clinical settings, develop measures of groupthink, evaluate interventions that mitigate groupthink in clinical practice, and examine how groupthink may be situated amidst other emerging social cognitive theories of collaborative clinical decision making.
Automatic Acoustic Scene Classification

Subjects: Machine Learning, Music Information Retrieval

description: This paper presents a baseline system for automatic acoustic scene classification based on the audio signals alone. The proposed method is derived from classic, content-based, music classification approaches, and consists in a feature extraction phase followed by two dimensionality reduction steps (PCA and LDA) and a classification phase done using a k nearest-neighbors algorithm. This paper also reports on how our system performed in the context of the DCASE 2016 challenge, for the acoustic scene classification task.

description: This work presents fully automated plasma-enhanced reactive thermal evaporation system (rf-PERTE) that can be used for the deposition of transparent metal oxide films with high reproducibility of their electrical and optical properties. The developed hardware/software platform enables the full control over the critical deposition conditions such as mass flow of oxygen, process pressure, current flowing through crucible and rf-power. For indium oxide films on glass substrates a resistivity of 9×10-4 Ω-cm and a transmittance of 90% in the visible spectral range were achieved without substrate heating. The system is also suitable for the deposition of transparent conducting coatings in a wide range of plastic substrates, for applications in the field of flexible sensors or solar cells. In particular, we have successfully deposited indium oxide on PEN (polyethylene naphthalate) sheets with electrical and optical properties approaching the ones of the films deposited on glass substrates.

description: To comply with the increase in luminosity of the LHC (Large Hadron Collider) in the next decades, the electronics of the ATLAS (A Toroidal LHC Apparatus) experiment is being upgraded. Included in the upgrade is the interfacing and control electronics system of the HVOpto/HVRemote cards in the TileCal (Tile Calorimeter) detector, which provides high voltages to about 104 photomultipliers (PMTs). This paper presents the new interfacing architecture for the system and details the design of a prototype control board (HVRemote-Ctrl) used for test and validation of the new architecture. The tests evaluate the system multiplexing capabilities needed to monitor all the TileCal PMTs in real time. The communication channels involved, supported in Ethernet and SPI interfaces/protocols, have been fully tested. Some results from the tests already completed are presented.

description: Medical education instructional videos are more popular and easier to create than ever before. Standard quality measures for this medium do not exist, leaving educators, learners, and content creators unable to assess these videos. Drawing from the literature on video quality and popularity, reusable learning objects, and multimedia and curriculum development principles, we developed a 26-item instructional video quality checklist (IVQC), to capture aspects of educational design (six items), source reliability (four items), multimedia principle adherence (10 items), and accessibility (six items). Two raters applied IVQC to 206 videos from five producers across topics from two organ systems (cardiology and pulmonology) encompassing four disciplines (anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology). Inter-rater reliability was strong. According to two-rater means, eight multimedia items were present in over 80% of videos. A minority of videos included learning objectives (46%), alternative language translations (41%), when the video was updated (40%), analogies (37%), or references (9%). Producer ratings varied significantly (p < .001) across 17 of 26 items. There were no significant differences according to the video topic. IVQC detected differences in elements of instructional video quality. Future work can apply this instrument to a broader array of videos and in authentic educational settings.
