Energy-Efficient Low-Complexity Algorithm in 5G Massive MIMO Systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Energy efficiency (EE) is a critical design when taking into account circuit power consumption (CPC) in fifth-generation cellular networks. These problems arise because of the increasing number of antennas in massive multiple-input multiple-output ...

A new substrate for sampling deep river macroinvertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We compared macroinvertebrate communities colonising multiplate samplers constructed from perspex or tempered hardboard (wood) with an alternative artificial substrate constructed from folded coconut fibre matting (coir) enclosed in nylon netting ...

Enhancement of Properties of Coir Geotextiles by Natural Rubber Latex Coating

open access: yesCORD, 2011
Coir geotextiles find application in revegetation of slopes by stabilizing the soil through erosion control. It has been found that the longevity of coir geotextiles although highest among all the natural fibres, it is required to last for at least 5 ...

Characteristics of Microcrystalline Cellulose from Coir Fibers

open access: yesJournal of Natural Fibers, 2022
This work aimed to extract and characterize microcrystalline cellulose from coir fibers. Extraction was achieved in a two-step process in which the coir fibers were treated with sodium hydroxide for 3 h at 100°C followed by bleaching with peracetic acid ...

Coir, an Alternative to Peat—Effects on Plant Growth, Phytochemical Accumulation, and Antioxidant Power of Spinach

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2021
The effects of four commercial substrates, a peat-based substrate, and three coir types (coir pith, coir chips, and coir pith + fibers) on yield, phytochemical accumulation, and antioxidant activity were evaluated in Spinacia oleracea L. cv.
