Motivated by channel measurements in different indoor locations we will show that the WLAN indoor MIMO channel is characterized by few dominant transmission paths mainly corresponding to the LOS path and some strong reflections. In the contrary to the common statistical flat Rayleigh fading channel model we will explain that the WLAN channel is widely deterministic and frequency selective. Furt...

deviant workplace behavior is referred to voluntary behavior that violates significant organizational norms and therefor threatens the well-being of the organization and its members. various kinds of these behaviors are recognized. in addition, many researches have been done regarding the relevant factors to these behaviors such as individual factors, group factors, leadership, managerial and o...

We exhibit a possible road towards a strong converse for the quantum capacity of degradable channels. In particular, we show that all degradable channels obey what we call a “pretty strong” converse: When the code rate increases above the quantum capacity, the fidelity makes a discontinuous jump from 1 to at most 1 √ 2 , asymptotically. A similar result can be shown for the private (classical) ...

one of the import indices of food security evaluation is food import capacity index. ratio of total exports to food imports is often thought to be a measure of the capacity of a country to finance its food imports using revenues from exports of goods and services. this study investigates food import capacity effects on rural households food security by calculated ahfci (aggregate household food...
