In this paper, a rigorous link performance test for MIMO OTA (multiple-input-multiple-output over-the-air) characterisation with traceable signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio (SINR) is presented. Measurements were made with three different testbeds which represent the 4G (fourth-generation) LTE (long term evolution) SISO (single-input-single-output), 4G LTE MIMO and 5G (fifth-generation) millimetre-wave (mm-wave) MIMO communication systems, respectively, in the small antenna radiated test (SMART) screened fully anechoic chamber, screened control room and reverberation chamber at the UK National Physical Laboratory (NPL). The measurement campaign comprised of automated data acquisition of channel power, downlink (DL) & uplink (UL) error vector magnitude (EVM) and throughput. The measurement repeatability has been assessed with standard deviation plotted as error bars and the uncertainty sources in the OTA test are analysed.

System identification is an important area of science, which aims to describe the characteristics of the system, representing them by mathematical models. Since many of these models can be seen as recursive functions, it is extremely important to control the errors in these functions, because small errors introduced in each computational step can grow exponentially due to the sensitivity to initial conditions present in this type of functions. One of the ways to control rounding and truncation errors is through interval arithmetic, since it is not possible to represent all numbers in the computer because of the finite representation in them. Thus, in arithmetic interval a number is represented by an interval in which the true number is within that interval. In this manuscript we developed an algorithm that performs the operations of interval arithmetic using basic functions. We have compared compared our results with the Matlab-toolbox Intlab. Numerical experiments have shown that our method is superior producing narrower intervals.

Electrical machines are devices that change either mechanical or electrical energy to the other and also can alternate the voltage levels of an alternating current. The need for electrical machines cannot be overemphasized since they are used in various applications in the world today. Its design is to meet the specifications as stated by the user and this design has to be an economical one. The design, therefore, revolves around designing the machine to meet the stipulated performance required, the cost available and the lasting life of the machine. This work aims to eliminate the tediousness involved in the manual hand calculations of designing the machines by making use of a graphical user interface and using iterations in situations where the data would have been assumed.

LoRa is a promising technology in the current Internet of Things market, which operates in un-licensed bands achieving long-range communications and with ultra power devices. In this work we capitalize on the idea introduced in [1], i.e. balance the Air-Time of the different modulation spreading factors (SF), and adapt it to operate in a typical metropolitan scenario comprising multiple gateways (GWs) interconnected to a same network server. Our proposed approach, named ADaptive Mitigation of the AIr-time pressure in lORa (AD MAIORA), relies on a suitable measure of the per-spreading-factor load at each GW - quantified by means of a so-called pressure table -, and on a relevant heuristic algorithm which attempts to balance such a per-SF-pressure. Especially in cases of very loaded scenarios, where a high number of nodes insist on the same GWs, the use of AD MAIORA shows significant performance gains, up to a factor of 5 improvements with respect to the legacy LoRaWAN's Adaptive Data Rate.
LoRa是目前物联网市场上很有前途的技术，它可以在无许可的频段上运行，实现远程通信，并使用超功率设备。在这项工作中，我们利用了[1]中引入的思想，即平衡不同调制扩频因子(SF)的airtime，并使其适应在典型的城域场景中运行，该场景包括与同一网络服务器互连的多个网关(gw)。我们提出的方法，称为lORa空气时间压力的自适应缓解(AD MAIORA)，依赖于每个GW的每扩展因子负载的适当测量-通过所谓的压力表进行量化-以及相关的启发式算法，该算法试图平衡这种每sf压力。特别是在负载非常大的情况下，大量节点坚持使用相同的gw, AD MAIORA的使用显示出显著的性能提升，与传统的LoRaWAN的自适应数据速率相比，性能提高了5倍。

A single layer broadband millimetre wave (mm-wave) array with circular polarisation is proposed for the fifth generation (5G) mm-wave communication applications. The antenna element is designed to integrate the matching circuit into a single layer. Hence no additional matching and feeding networks are required which makes the antenna element very easy to synthesise a massive array. The array has a 10 dB return loss bandwidth between 26 GHz and 32 GHz. The polar angle axial ratio is less than 3 within the beamwidth of -60 degree to 60 degree. The proposed antenna structure is simple, low cost and robust, which we envisage suitable for the massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) applications.

This paper introduces a microstrip square patch antenna with a novel low-cost and efficient feeding mechanism for millimetre-wave frequencies targeting at 28 GHz. The radiating patch is excited by the technique of empty substrate integrated waveguide, and two different slot configurations have been examined in this regard. It has been observed that the antenna gain profile and radiation efficiency is significantly improved in both configurations as compared to the microstrip square patch antenna provided with conventional feeding.

This study illustrates presents a set of the Long-Term Geoelectric Potential (LTGP) measurements that are collected for experimental investigation in Western Greece during a five-year period (1993-1997). During this period, many major destructive earthquake events occurred that caused human casualties and extended material damages. The collection and processing of geoelectric measurements was done by an automated data acquisition system at the Seismological Laboratory of the University of Patras, Greece. This novel study considers seismic activity of this area as a typical linear dynamic system and the dynamic relationship between the magnitude of earthquakes and Long-Term Geoelectric Potential signals is inferred by the Recursive Least Square algorithm. The results are encouraging and show that linear dynamic systems, which are widely used in modern control theory, can describe efficiently the dynamic behavior of seismic activity and become a useful interpretative tool of seismic phenomenon.
