Millimeter Wave in Mobile Networks

Millimeter Wave Communications for Future Mobile Networks

I. Introduction

Phase 1 of 5G is being standardized in 3GPP. 5G systems are expected to support various usage applications:

  • Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB)
  • Massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC)
  • Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC)

IMT-2020 (5G) is expected to provide the following key performance indicators (KPIs):

  • > 10 Gbit/s peak data rate
  • 100 Mbit/s user-experienced data rate
  • 3x spectrum efficiency
  • > 100 Mbps cell edge rates
  • 10

Communication, Culture, Relationships: Key Concepts

Chapter 7: Communication Climate

Achieving your goals depends on your ability to create an effective communication climate, which is the emotional tone of the relationship between people.

  • Ethnocentrism: A perspective based on the assumption that our cultural norms are the only right ones.
  • Provisionalism: Listening with an open mind; openness to new possibilities.
  • Covert Conflict: Exists when people express disagreement or difference only indirectly.

Conflict Resolution Approaches

  • Lose-Lose: Assumes that

Android Development: Toast, Sum, and Date/Time

Android Development: Three Practical Examples

Example 1: Displaying a “Hello World!” Toast Message

This example demonstrates how to display a simple “Hello World!” message using the Toast class in Android.

package com.example.program1;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Toast;
import android.app.Activity;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

Key Negotiation Terms and Tactics: Preparation to Closing

Elements of Preparation for a Negotiation

  • Reservation Point: The least favorable point at which a negotiator is willing to accept a deal. It’s essentially your “walk away” point.
  • BATNA: Stands for Best Alternative To a Negotiated Agreement. It’s your best option if the current negotiation fails. A strong BATNA can increase your negotiating power.
  • Target or Aspiration Points: These are the ideal outcomes or goals you hope to achieve in the negotiation. They represent what you’re aiming for instead of

Triangle Classification

This section demonstrates how to classify triangles based on their side lengths using C code.


#include <stdio.h>

// Function to check if sides form a triangle
int isValidTriangle(int a, int b, int c) {
    return (a + b > c) && (a + c > b) && (b + c > a);
}

// Function to determine the type of triangle
void determineTriangleType(int a, int b, int c) {
    if (!isValidTriangle(a, b, c)) {
        printf("Not
