Polarimetric Wireless Indoor Channel Modeling Based on Propagation Graph
This paper generalizes a propagation graph model to polarized indoor wireless channels. In the original contribution, the channel is modeled as a propagation graph in which vertices represent transmitters, receivers, and scatterers, while edges represent the propagation conditions between vertices. Each edge is characterized by an edge transfer function accounting for the attenuation, delay spread
A Belief Propagation Algorithm for Multipath-Based SLAM
We present a simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) algorithm that is based on radio signals and the association of specular multipath components (MPCs) with geometric features. Especially in indoor scenarios, robust localization from radio signals is challenging due to diffuse multipath propagation, unknown MPC-feature association, and limited visibility of features. In our approach, specul
5G mmwave positioning for vehicular networks
5G technologies present a new paradigm to provide connectivity to vehicles, in support of high data-rate services, complementing existing inter-vehicle communication standards based on IEEE 802.11p. As we argue, the specific signal characteristics of 5G communication turn out to be highly conducive for vehicle positioning. Hence, 5G can work in synergy with existing on-vehicle positioning and mapp
Energy-Efficient Stable and Balanced Task Scheduling in Data Centers
It is well known that load balancing in data centers can lead to unnecessary energy usage if all servers are kept active. Usingdynamic server provisioning, the number of servers that serve requests can be reduced by turning off idle servers and thereby savingenergy. However, such a scheme, usually increases the risk of instability of server queues. In this work, we analyze the trade-offbetween ene
Brief Cognitive Tests Used in Primary Care Cannot Accurately Differentiate Mild Cognitive Impairment from Subjective Cognitive Decline
BACKGROUND: Differentiating mild cognitive impairment (MCI) from subjective cognitive decline (SCD) is important because of the higher progression rate to dementia for MCI and when considering future disease-modifying drugs that will have treatment indications at the MCI stage.OBJECTIVE: We examined if the two most widely-used cognitive tests, the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) and clock-dra
Lifelong Effects of Thermal Challenges During Development in Birds and Mammals
Before they develop competent endothermy, mammals and birds are sensitive to fluctuating temperature. It follows that early life thermal environment can trigger changes to the ontogeny of thermoregulatory control. At the ecological level, we have incomplete knowledge of how such responses affect temperature tolerance later in life. In some cases, changes to pre- and postnatal temperature prime an
Tuning Viscoelasticity with Minor Changes in Speed of Sound in an Ultrasound Phantom Material
The acoustic properties of ultrasound phantom materials have always been important, but with new applications interrogating tissue mechanical properties, viscoelasticity has also become an interesting feature to consider. Along with Young's modulus, the viscous component of tissue is affected by certain diseases and can therefore be used as a biomarker. Furthermore, viscoelasticity varies between
Holocene Hydrographic Variations From the Baltic-North Sea Transitional Area (IODP Site M0059)
Deoxygenation affects many continental shelf seas across the world today and results in increasing areas of hypoxia (dissolved oxygen concentration ([O2])

Psykiatrisk tvångsvård: tillåten (sär)behandling eller otillåten diskriminering?
Konventionen om rättigheter för personer med funktionsnedsättning (CRPD) innehåller en ny vision för den psykiatriska vården som bygger på principer om likabehandling och självbestämmande. Denna artikel analyserar innebörden av denna vision och dess implikationer för den svenska kontexten. Mitt syfte är att bidra till diskussionen om hur den psykiatriska tvångsvården bör regleras i Sverige. Fokus
Participation in Research and the CRPD
This article discusses the implications of the United Nations’ Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (“CRPD”) for domestic policies on research involving persons with disabilities, including those with limited decision-making abilities. It starts with an examination of the protection the Convention affords to persons with disabilities against being enrolled in research projects, an
Short-term reproducibility of parameters characterizing atrial fibrillatory waves
Objective: To study reproducibility of f-wave parameters in terms of inter- and intrapatient variation. Approach: Five parameters are investigated: dominant atrial frequency (DAF), f-wave amplitude, phase dispersion, spectral organization, and spatiotemporal variability. For each parameter, the variance ratio R, defined as the ratio between inter- and intrapatient variance, is computed; a larger R
Radiotherapy and IDO-inhibition for Glioblastoma
ECG-Derived Respiratory Rate in Atrial Fibrillation
Objective: The present study addresses the problem of estimating the respiratory rate from the mor- phological ECG variations in the presence of atrial fibrilla- tory waves (f-waves). The significance of performing f-wave suppression before respiratory rate estimation is investi- gated. Methods: The performance of a novel approach to ECG-derived respiration, named “slope range” (SR) and de- signed
The Multi-Blade Boron-10-based neutron detector performance using a focusing reflectometer
The Multi-Blade is a Boron-10-based neutron detector designed for neutron reflectometers and developed for the two instruments (Estia and FREIA) planned for the European Spallation Source in Sweden. A demonstrator has been installed at the AMOR reflectometer at the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI - Switzerland). AMOR exploits the Selene guide concept and can be considered a scaled-down demonstrator of
