To this end, the inverse of tie strength is considered as the cost associated to each link, or, in other words, the cost for a user to share a message over that link. The cost of a path is therefore a measure of the “lack of trust” or of the amount of resources to be spent ...
Average dispersion refers to the measure of the degree to which the effective propagation velocity changes with wavelength in optical fibers. It is the sum of material dispersion and waveguide dispersion, impacting signal velocity in communication circuits. ...
Biological responses to climate change are typically communicated in generalized terms such as poleward and altitudinal range shifts, but adaptation efforts relevant to management decisions often require forecasts that incorporate the interaction of multiple climatic and nonclimatic stressors at far smaller ...
use of all received signals, i.e., the interference is fully exploited. Multi-cell MIMO with BS cooperation on theDLwas investigated for the first time in[SZ01]. Since then, multi-cell MIMO has received an increasing interest motivated by the progress made on MU-MIMO (covered inChapter ...
