Multi-Cell Cooperative Outage Compensation in Cloud-RANs Based 5G Public Safety Network

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
Cell outage compensation is a crucial way for public safety network (PSN) to recover network communication independently during disasters. As a significant technology for 5G, a cloud-radio access network (C-RAN) plays an important role in a PSN.

Electrification, Power Outages and Employment

open access: yesApplied Economics and Finance, 2020
Although electrification rates have increased in developing countries, the poor quality of electricity still remains a challenge. This paper studies the effects of electrification at the intensive margin, using a fixed effects approach. I find that power outages significantly reduce employment, earnings, and hours of work.
