The Pandemic EVIDENCE Collaboration Pillar 1: diagnostics and transmission by Conly, J, Plüddemann, A, Jefferson, T, Rosca, C, Heneghan, C

“…The evidence produced to support the optimal deployment of NPIs to reduce transmission of SARS-CoV-2 was often of poor quality, and decisions were made without considering the wealth of previous research on respiratory virus transmission from human challenge studies. …”

The Pandemic EVIDENCE Collaboration Pillar 2: interventions and evidence by Fretheim, A, Onakpoya, I, Bartoszko, J, Jones, M, Gandini, S

“…The use of non-pharmacological interventions (NPIs) on a global scale to reduce the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 was unprecedented. However, there was a lack of high-quality evidence to fully understand the benefits and harms of these interventions. …”

BEM-PSP for single-carrier and SC-FDMA communication over a doubly selective fading channel by Liu, Xiaobei, Anand, Kushal, Guan, Yong Liang, Deng, Li, Fan, Pingzhi, Zhou, Zhengchun

“…The resultant BEM-PSP receiver significantly improves the channel estimation mean square error (MSE) and the bit error rates (BER) performance in fast fading multi-path channel, thanks to the channel tracking capability embedded within its Viterbi equalizer. …”
