Feasibility of Adaptive Transmission for Multicarrier and Frequency Hopping Mobile Radio Systems

Overview This paper addresses feasibility of adaptive transmission for rapidly varying fading channels encountered in mobile communication systems. Due to rapid channel variations and the feedback delay, implementation of adaptive transmission in these channels requires accurate prediction of future channel conditions. The paper describes the design and performance of adaptive transmission methods enabled by the Long Range Fading Prediction algorithms (LRP) for Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) and slow Frequency-Hopping Spread Spectrum (FH/SS) systems. The LRP algorithms are tested with a modified Jakes model and the realistic physical model. To enable channel loading for Adaptive OFDM (AOFDM), robust adaptive prediction methods that track channel parameter variations are developed and compared.

Strangling the virus; the big number change, and big banker gains.

It has developed new anti-virus software that stops the spread of the virus rather than avoiding infection in the first place. The Lightweight version simply intercepts outgoing messages and asks the user to confirm the transmission.

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?

Telecom 2.0: Mind over matter

ntl:Telewest Business believes that the role of the telco is evolving. Gone are the days when it was enough to simply focus on circuits and minutes, customers now need a far higher degree of interaction and look for suppliers who will talk business solutions with them.
