This paper proposes a novel method for channel estimation in a single-carrier MIMO system with frequencydomain equalization/detection. To this end, we construct novel short MIMO training sequences that have constant envelope in the time domain to preclude the peak-to-mean power problem encountered in many systems that utilize the frequency domain for data recovery. Simultaneously, the spectrum ...

How can we take householders from being disengaged passive energy consumers towards being highly motivated retrofitting energy saving masters? In this paper the ”Power law of engagement model for energy saving” is introduced, which breaks down the process of engaging householders into 8 defined stages. The model is based on the householder’s level of engagement and commitment, but applies Fogg’...
