The Harris group proposed to develop significantly higher efficiency thin film multi-junction solar cells by combining multi-junctions and advanced nano-scale light management concepts in ultra-thin film devices that lend themselves to very large scale, low cost manufacturing. In the past year, they developed thin-film nanostructured solar cell modeling, epitaxial growth and fabrication. A nano...

Ultra wideband (UWB) wireless communication has been the subject of extensive research in recent years due to its potential applications and unique capabilities. However, many important aspects of UWB-based communication systems have not yet been thoroughly examined. The area of narrow band communication is well developed. The objective of this paper is to present Ultra Wideband (UWB) communica...

Ultra-Wide Band (UWB) was presented as a promising radio technology. Because of their large bandwidth, UWB networks are supposed able to deliver high data rates at short ranges. But after analyzing measurements many works observed saturation of the number of channel Degrees of Freedom (DoF) versus bandwidth. This motivates the work presented in this paper where we focus on sub space behavior to...
