Enhanced Channel Estimation in Massive MIMO via Coordinated Pilot Design [PDF]
Pilot contamination is a limiting factor in multicell massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems because it can severely impair channel estimation. Prior works have suggested coordinating pilot design across cells in order to reduce the channel estimation error caused by pilot contamination. In this paper, we propose a method for coordinated

Developing low-carbon cities through pilots
Nationwide rapid urbanization has been a key driver of economic growth, energy consumption, and carbon emission in China. To avoid the high energy consumption and pollution present in other industrialized countries, China is making the economic and ...

Learning How to Demodulate from Few Pilots via Meta-Learning
Consider an Internet-of-Things (IoT) scenario in which devices transmit sporadically using short packets with few pilot symbols. Each device transmits over a fading channel and is characterized by an amplifier with a unique non-linear transfer function ...

Objective Despite knowledge that health outcomes vary according to patient characteristics, identity, and geography, including underrepresented populations in arthritis research remains a challenge. We conducted interviews to explore how researchers in arthritis have used equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) principles to inform their research ...

Joint Pilot Design and Uplink Power Allocation in Multi-Cell Massive MIMO Systems [PDF]
This paper considers pilot design to mitigate pilot contamination and provide good service for everyone in multi-cell Massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems. Instead of modeling the pilot design as a combinatorial assignment problem, as in prior works, we express the pilot signals using a pilot basis and treat the associated power ...

The risk of melanoma in airline pilots and cabin crew: a meta-analysis.
IMPORTANCE Airline pilots and cabin crew are occupationally exposed to higher levels of cosmic and UV radiation than the general population, but their risk of developing melanoma is not yet established.

Gender on the flightdeck: experiences of women commercial airline pilots in the UK [PDF]
The reasons for, and the implications arising from, the underrepresentation of women on the flightdeck of commercial aircraft continues to challenge national Governments, the aviation industry, and the academic community. Although some airlines have made

Lessons from the English National Health Service new care models programme
Introduction: Between 2015 and 2018, the National Health Service (NHS) in England invested over £300m in a New Care Models (NCM) programme to develop new approaches to delivering care to whole populations.
