Capacity analysis of orthogonal pulse-based TH-UWB signals by Majhi, Sudhan., Richardson, Paul.

“…The paper studies the capacities of time hopping ultra wideband (TH-UWB) systems by adopting orthogonal pulse-based modulation schemes in a multipath environment with the consideration of multiple access interference (MAI) and inter symbol interference (ISI). …”

Presence of host-seeking Ixodes ricinus and their infection with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in the Northern Apennines, Italy by Ragagli, C, Mannelli, A, Ambrogi, C, Bisanzio, D, Ceballos, LA, Grego, E, Martello, E, Selmi, M, Tomassone, L

“…Greatest numbers of ticks were collected at locations characterised by southern exposure and limestone substratum, at altitudes <1400 m asl; I. ricinus was most abundant in Turkey oak (Quercus cerris) wood, whereas H. punctata was mostly collected in hop hornbeam (Ostrya carpinifolia) wood and on exposed rocks. …”

Finite temperature dynamics of a Holstein polaron : the thermo-field dynamics approach by Chen, Lipeng, Zhao, Yang

“…Results on the mean square displacements show that band-like transport features dominate the diagonal coupling cases, and there exists a crossover from band-like to hopping transport with increasing temperature when including off-diagonal coupling. …”

Effects of kinesio taping on Hamstring-to-quadriceps ratio on non-injured female amateur competitive team sports athletes by Tan, Priscilla Hui Yee

“…They had to be free from injuries in the past 6 months and have a Hecc:Qcon ratio at 180°/s less than 0.96 on the non-dominant leg. 4 dependent variables were measured, Hecc:Qcon ratio at 180°/s and 240°/s, the maximum distance for the single-leg triple hop jump (THJ) and the maximum height for the double-leg countermovement jump. …”

Nonreciprocal phenomena in superconductivity by Davydova, Marharyta

“…The mechanism for their formation is kinetic frustration, and therefore their binding energy is proportional to the hopping t, which is the largest energy scale within a single Hubbard band. …”

Orientational beamforming via a modified RBF neural network for orientational UWB interference rejection by Han, Jiangyan, Ng, Boon Poh, Er, Meng Hwa

“…Although various techniques have been proposed in the literature to suppress multiuser interference in the time-hopping UWB system, there has been no research on interference suppression in the OBF UWB system. …”

An efficient secure and energy resilient trust-based system for detection and mitigation of sybil attack detection (SAN) by Hussain, Muhammad Zunnurain, Mohd Hanapi, Zurina, Abdullah, Azizol, Hussin, Masnida, Ninggal, Mohd Izuan Hafez

“…Sybil attacks build a significant security challenge for RPL networks where an attacker can distort at least two hop paths and disrupt network processes. Using such a new way of calculating node reliability, we introduce a cutting-edge approach, evaluating parameters beyond routing metrics like energy conservation and actuality. …”

Bond and electronic relaxation dynamics of graphene, gold clusters, and water ice by Zhang, Xi

“…Consistency between the BOLS-TB calculation and density functional theory (DFT) calculation on graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) verified that i) the physical origin of the band gap expansion lays in the enhancement of edge potentials and hopping integrals due to the shorter and stronger bonds between undercoordinated atoms; and ii) nonbond electrons at the edge of zigzag-edged GNRs and atomic vacancies accompanied with the broken bond contribute to the Dirac-Fermi polaron (DFP) with a local magnetic momentum; iii) the formation of triple bond at the edge of armchair-edged and reconstruct-edged GNRs annihilates the nonbond electron and prevent formation of DFPs. …”

Optimization and scheduling for a large-scale urban transportation system involving human factors by Zhang, Yi

“…The thesis includes three technical chapters: The first technical chapter develops a model to provide traffic light scheduling for pedestrian-vehicle mixed-flow networks, where a macroscopic pedestrian "hopping" model at an intersection is formulated, which is capable of reflecting the changing capacity during one time interval resulted from the crosswalk length and pedestrian relatively lower speed. …”
