The multipath is unavoidable in radio frequency (RF) wireless communication, and affects almost every element of the communication systems.The impact of multipath on the received signal depends on whether the delay spread (i.e., spread of time delays associated with different multipath components) is large or small relative to the symbol period of
BackgroundPortable breath ketone sensors may help people with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) avoid episodes of diabetic ketoacidosis; however, the design features preferred by users have not been studied.We aimed to elucidate breath sensor design preferences of young people with T1DM (age 12 to 16) and their parents to inform the development of a
In some instances, it is inevitable that large amounts of potentially hazardous chemicals like chlorine gas are stored and used in facilities in densely populated areas.In such cases, all safety issues must be carefully considered.To reach this goal, it is important to have accurate information concerning chlorine gas behaviors and how it is disper
Numerous advantages have been reported on PAC (poly aluminum chloride) used as a coagulant over other coagulants such as alum and ferric chloride used in conventional water treatment process with medium and high turbidity levels.These include lower amounts of PACL required specially in removing turbidity, larger floc grain formation, reduced floc s
Most previous research on self-disclosure (SD) focused on its perceived retrospective aspects using self-report questionnaires.Few studies investigated actual SD as reflected in interpersonal interaction.We propose a comprehensive approach that combines new objective and dynamic measures of SD that evaluate situated SD with the traditional measures
