Multiuser multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-
MIMO) systems are known to be hindered by dimensionality
loss due to channel state information (CSI) acquisition overhead.
In this paper, we investigate user-scheduling in MU-MIMO
systems on account of CSI acquisition overhead, where a base
station dynam ...
Many wireless communications channels consist of multiple signal paths from the
transmitter to receiver. This multiplicity of paths leads to a phenomenon known
as multipath fading. The multiple paths are caused by the presence of objects in the
physical environment that, through the mechanisms of pr ...
The single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA)
system is a well-known system that has recently become a preferred
choice for mobile uplink channels. This is attributed to its advantages
such as the low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and the use of
frequency domain equalizers. Lo ...

The explosion in demand for wireless services experienced over the past 20 years
has put significant pressure on system designers to increase the capacity of the
systems being deployed. While the spectral resource is very scarce and practically
exhausted, the biggest possibilities are predicted to b ...
Static electricity is the most ancient form of electricity known to humans. More
than 2000 years ago, the Greeks recognized the attraction between certain mate-
rials when they were rubbed together; indeed, the word electricity comes from
the Greek elektron, which means amber. During the seventeenth ...
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) phenomena have been known to mankind since the Greek
Empire when Thales of Miletus, one of the Seven Sages of Greece, noticed the attraction of
strands of hay to amber, leading to the coining of the word ‘‘electron.’’ In the 17th century,
Gilbert and Cabeo addressed ...
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) phenomena have been known to mankind since Thales of
Miletus in approximately 600 B.C.E. noticed the attraction of strands of hay to amber.
Two thousand six hundred years have passed and the quest to obtain a better under-
standing of electrostatics and ESD phenomenon c ...
The phenomenon of electrostatic discharge (ESD) has been known for a long time, but
recently a growing interest has been observed in ESD in radio frequency (RF) technology
and ESD issues in RF applications.
