Ecosystem governance becomes gradually more relevant for a set of companies or actors characterized by symbiotic relations evolved on the top of a technological platform, i.e. a software ecosystem. In this study, we focus on the governance of a hardware-dependent software ecosystem. More specifically, we evaluate the governance model applied by Axis, a network video and surveillance camera produce

Industry involvement in open source software development has become a popular practice among companies which, e.g., share software development costs with other community participants or implement an open source based business model. An increased understanding of the underlying development structure, especially in a case where the community participants are composed of competing industry members, c

We consider the problem of constructing linear precoders for quasi-stationary multiple-input multiple-output channels. Maximum-likelihood detection is assumed and the objective of the precoding is to maximize the minimum Euclidean distance of the signaling. Since the channel remains constant for some time, the precoding is performed spatially as well as across time. As will be shown, the precoder

Over-the-air multi-probe setups provide an efficient way to characterize the performance of today’s advanced wireless communication systems. In this paper the measurement uncertainty of such a setup using a car as a test object is characterized through three experiments: measurement system analysis, channel sounder measurements, and probe coupling measurements. Four issues were in focus for the an

Abstract in UndeterminedIn this paper, we present and evaluate the performance of a dynamic dual-link wideband multiple-input-multiple-output ( MIMO) channel sounder. The channel sounder can simultaneously measure two wideband dual-polarized links, each with a MIMO matrix size of 30 x 30 and 30 x 32. Multi-link MIMO systems, including multiuser and cooperative MIMO, are essential parts of future h

We deal with the construction of optimal channel shortening, also known as combined linear Viterbi detection, algorithms for ISI and MIMO channels. In the case of MIMO channel shortening, the tree structure to represent MIMO signals is replaced by a trellis. The optimization is performed from an information theoretical perspective and the achievable information rates of the shortened models are de

In this paper a number of low-complexity channel estimator structures tailored to the needs of LTE terminals have been investigated. The focus has been on the algorithms exhibiting reduced complexity while providing an acceptable level of performance. To design these estimators other factors such as interoperability with another OFDM-based standard, DVB-H, in a multi-standard environment have been

A general coupling-based model framework for wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) channels is presented in this paper. Under this framework, the channel state information (CSI) tensor can be expressed by the product of a coupling tensor, a complex Gaussian tensor and three unitary matrices. The unitary matrices can be either eigenbases or steering matrices in different domains. The coupl

This paper describes a named entity recognition (NER) system for short text messages (SMS) running on a mobile platform. Most NER systems deal with text that is structured, formal, well written, with a good grammatical structure, and few spelling errors. SMS text messages lack these qualities and have instead a short-handed and mixed language studded with emoticons, which makes NER a challenge on

Abstract in Undeterminedhis survey deals with computational complexity of column generation problems arising in the design of survivable communication networks. Such problems are often modeled as linear programs based on noncompact multicommodity flow network formulations. These formulations involve an exponential number of path-flow variables, and therefore require column generation to be solved

In this work we present a fully integrated Radio-Fiber interface implemented in 65nm CMOS, intended for remote antenna units (RAUs) in distributed antenna systems. To relax the requirements on the optical components, an intermediate frequency (IF) signal (100MHz) is transmitted over the multi-mode fiber, which is then up-converted to 2.2GHz inside the RAU. Local Oscillator (LO) signals to the mixe

Computer generated imagery is used in a wide range of disciplines, each with different requirements. As an example, real-time applications such as computer games have completely different restrictions and demands than offline rendering of feature films. A game has to render quickly using only limited resources, yet present visually adequate images. Film and visual effects rendering may not have st

Hierarchical depth culling is an important optimization, which is present in all modern high performance graphics processors. We present a novel culling algorithm based on a layered depth representation, with a per-sample mask indicating which layer each sample belongs to. Our algorithm is feed forward in nature in contrast to previous work, which rely on a delayed feedback loop. It is simple to i

This paper presents a multimode soft-output multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) signal detector that is efficient in hardware cost and energy consumption. The detector is capable of dealing with spatial-multiplexing (SM),break space-division-multiple-access (SDMA), and spatial-diversity (SD) signals of 4 ✕ 4 antenna and 64-QAM modulation. Implementation-friendly algorithms, which reuse most of t

In this work a low power 5th order chebyshev active-RC low pass filter that meets Rel-8 LTE receiver requirements has been designed with programmable bandwidth and overshoot. Designed for a homodyne LTE receiver, filter bandwidths from 700kHz to 10MHz are supported. The bandwidth of the operational amplifiers is improved using a novel phase enhancement technique. The filter was implemented in 65nm
