Harvest Techniques for Hops (Humulus lupulus)
Hops (Humulus lupulus) are perennial plants commonly harvested for their mature strobiles, also referred to as cones, which are primarily dried and used as a bittering agent and preservative in beer production.

On performance evaluation of NOMA-aided SIMO multi-hop schemes using energy harvesting and fountain coding based information accumulation. [PDF]
In this paper, we propose a new non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA)-aided Single-Input Multiple-Output (SIMO) multi-hop relay scheme using wirelessly energy harvesting (EH) and Fountain Codes (FCs).

Determination of Bitter Compounds in Hops – Effect of Crop Year and Hops Age
Our study is focused on mutual comparison of four methods of determination of alpha acids in hops (EBC 7.4, EBC 7.5, ČSN and EBC 7.7) and their application in evaluation of hops stored under different conditions.
