There are also problems with throughput of students. Our team interviewed gymnasium pupils, guidance counselors, and first year students in selected disciplines at Lund University to find out how they made their decision to come to univers

Orthogonality Factor in WCDMA Downlinks in Urban Macrocelluar Environments

Multipath dispersion leads to the loss of orthogonality between signals transmitted simultaneously on a wide-band code division multiple access (WCDMA) downlink. The orthogonality factor (OF), which models its impact in the link signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) equation, depends - to a large extent - on the power delay profile of the multipath channel between the mobile and its servi
