MIMO: From Theory to Reality

Tags:
broadband

Overview Driven by the even growing demand of higher data rate with the scarce spectrum resource, the theoretical breakthrough has been made and demonstrated significant increase on channel capacity (spectral efficiency) over MIMO systems. The theoretical MIMO spectral efficiency is verified by MIMO channel measurements and trial systems. Two MIMO mechanisms are widely adopted: spatial multiplexing and space-time block coding (STBC). The MIMO techniques are specified in a variety of wireless standards: WiFi, WiMAX, HSPA+, LTE, and future 802.16m and LTE-advanced. After little more than 10 years, MIMO technology has become one of the major forces to enable mobile broadband communications.

An Introduction to ISDN

ISDN is a digital communications network providing transmission rates in multiples of 64kbits per second. Typically described as 2B + D, Basic Rate ISDN (BRI) logically uses 2 64 kbit/s...

The Bloor Perspective: Data protection, web services security and nanotechnology

This is in many respects similar to the approach recently adopted by Entrust. The argument is that tightly coupled security mechanisms that would otherwise protect transactions across the web between multiple applications and enterprises are...

Analysis: NAS and SAN uniting

SANs traditionally have been used with programs such as database applications that access data at the 'block' level. Block-level access is faster in a transactional database environment, because it requires fewer steps to locate bits, said Gartner...

Radioactive: Mobile television on trial

The main stumbling block for DVB-H, the superior broadcast technology, is that it requires a new tranche of spectrum to be allocated to it, and Ofcom has so far not recognised the need, or urgency, for doing so.

Harnessing the Power of Location Intelligence in the Public Sector

Throughout the world, public services today are under pressure. The current economic climate, where taxreceipts are naturally suppressed, provides very seriousfunding challenges. Moreover, in good times and bad, increasing regulation at the regional and national level is imposing additional duties and responsibilities on the public services without additional resources to carry them out. Store closures are changing the urban landscape. Demographic and/or economic change isincreasing demand for health and social services.Demand for decreased crime rates is focusing minds in law enforcement. And the threat of internationalterrorism is forcing greater contingency duties on the emergency services. The net result is a need to do more with lessquite a challenge.

IBM XIV® Storage System: Power Consumption Reinvented

Reducing power consumption is one of the most significant challenges of IT centers today. With storage needs on a steep rise, it is increasingly clear that new approaches must be explored. This IBM whitepaper shows how, on average, a traditional storage system using mirroring effectively uses less than 21% of its raw capacity, and an XIV system uses approximately 46% of its raw capacity.

3 Strategies for Reducing IT Support Costs

As companies brace for more bumps in the economic downturn, many organisations are indiscriminately cutting costs. To ensure a seamless transition into the post-recession market, however, slashing and burning is not recommended. Now is the time to strategically trim and strengthen for success. This IDC White Paper explores 3 tangible areas that IT departments should investigate to help strategise cost reduction during the downturn. Download the White Paper to learn: -- Why IT utilisation, end-user support and maintenance budgets are the most strategic areas to investigate -- How to effectively approach cost-saving measures within these areas while maintaining IT performance -- Tools and services the IDC recommends for achieving maximum cost savings and efficiency
