A Neural Network-Based Random Access Protocol for Crowded Massive MIMO Systems.

Fifth-generation (5G) and beyond networks are expected to serve large numbers of user equipments (UEs). Grant-based random access (RA) protocols are efficient when serving human users, typically with large data volumes to transmit. The strongest user collision resolution (SUCRe) is the first protocol that effectively uses the many antennas at the 5G base station (BS) to improve connectivity performance.

Low-Cost Joystick for Pediatric Respiratory Exercises.

The use of body signals for health care applications has become ubiquitous in the last decade. One utilization of such measurements is the monitoring of respiratory flow for physiotherapy assistance. This application is based on relative flow measures which can rely on inexpensive sensors.

Wavelet time-frequency analysis and least squares support vector machines for the identification of voice disorders.

This work describes a novel algorithm to identify laryngeal pathologies, by the digital analysis of the voice. It is based on Daubechies' discrete wavelet transform (DWT-db), linear prediction coefficients (LPC), and least squares support vector machines (LS-SVM). Wavelets with different support-sizes and three LS-SVM kernels are compared.
