Smartphone application in determining the reflection point for line-of-sight wireless systems by Chua, Han Jie.

“…With the increasing popularity of smart phone usage, it is advantages to develop smartphone applications that can aids and arouse interest of the students studying wireless communication module.In a wireless system where multi path propagation occurs, the reflection point in a Line of Sight System is of great importance and great interest as the position of the reflection point willl affects the quality of the signal received.In this project, a smart phone application using the Android 2.2 OS was developed to correlate the GPS reading of the user location, to retrieve user various values selection.The program used two reflection point calculation methods namely the Bisection Algorithm method and Solving the Cubic Equation method to calculate thereflection point position.The reflection point will be potrayed onto a graphical map upon calculation.…”

Binding of TCR multimers and a TCR-like antibody with distinct fine-specificities is dependent on the surface density of HLA complexes by Low, Jianrong L., Gehring, Adam J., Kranz, David M., Grotenbreg, Gijsbert M., Yau, Yin Hoe, Shochat, Susana Geifman, Bertoletti, Antonio, Naidoo, Anneta, Yeo, Gladys, Ho, Zi Zong

“…Various protein scaffolds have been designed to recapitulate the specific recognition of presented antigens with the aim to be exploited both diagnostically (e.g. to visualize cells exposed to infectious agents or cellular transformation) and therapeutically (e.g. for the delivery of drugs to compromised cells). In line with this, we report the construction of a soluble tetrameric form of an αβ T cell receptor (TCR) specific for the HBV epitope Env183–191 restricted by HLA-A*02:01, and compare its avidity and fine-specificity with a TCR-like monoclonal antibody generated against the same HLA target. …”
