Advanced Testing Methods for Better Real Life Performance of Biomass Room Heating Appliances (BeReal)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,

Existing test standards for biomass room heating appliances (pellet and firewood stoves, and inset appliances) have supported technology development tremendously in past decades. Due to today’s changing and more demanding requirements, however, there is the obvious need for refined testing procedures in order to differentiate between poor and excellent products. Such differentiation should take in ...

Spectrum Aggregation and Multi-User MIMO: Real-world Impact (SAMURAI)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2012,

Next generation cellular wireless systems will require data rates which are one order of magnitude higher than the ones provided by current systems.One way to improve the rates is to increase the bandwidth. Unfortunately, spectrum is a fragmented resource and large bands of frequencies are unavailable to one single operator. Therefore, Spectrum Aggregation (SA) represents an opportunity to overcom ...
