Investigations on the effects of scatterers on the MIMO channel characteristics in LOS environment by LIU Lei-lei, HONG Wei

“…The effects of scattering objects on MIMO（multiple input multiple output） channel characteristics in line-of-sight（LOS） environment were investigated.The study was focused on the outdoor LOS environment but with a scatterer.The analytical mathematical expressions were derived to describe the MIMO channel matrix,where the microstrip an-tennas and 2-D cylindrical scatterer were considered.The MIMO channel capacity and the condition number of the ma-trix were investigated.From the simulation results of the MIMO channel characteristics of the model,some suggestions for practical MIMO system design are proposed.…”

Poetry in the Age of New Sound Technology: Mallarmé to Tennyson by Francis O’Gorman

“…The meaning that sounds carry has always mattered to poetry but in a culture developing new communication technology using sound, the Victorians heard poetry's capacities to signal to the ear anew. This essay considers a number of poets writing after the invention, principally, of Morse code, the telegraph and the telephone, and their culturally-pertinent ruminations on what human messages sound could bear across space and time. …”

Wav-audio steganography algorithm based on amplitude modifying by 邹明光, 李芝棠

“…Algorithms in different effective domains are analysed,and a wav-audio steganography algorithm based on amplitude modifying is proposed.The secret audio is scrambled through a random number generator.Amplitude values of each sampling point group are compared in original audio.While amplitude values are modified,the secret information bits are embedded.Embedding strength can be adjusted according to the key.Simulation results demonstrate that hiding capacity of this algorithm is large and good invisibility can be achieved.The anti-steganalysis ability of this algorithm is good and blind extraction can be realized.…”

Influence of NFV introduction on core network element and planning method by Yuan ZHAO, Jiyan WANG

“…Network function virtualization (NFV) is an obvious change in communication technology,especially for the core network.Firstly,the two level changes between the most obvious and the most far-reaching about element and network construction methods were illustrated and analyzed.In addition,the core network planning generally included the capacity planning and network planning,was closely related to both the NFV cloud,with the decoupling of hardware and software of network element,would change the planning method.Based on this,the effect of NFV on core network element and its planning method in many aspects were illustrated.…”
