Millimeter-wave (mmWave) technology holds the potential to revolutionize head-mounted displays (HMDs) by enabling high-speed wireless communication with nearby processing nodes, where complex video rendering can take place. However, the sparse angular profile of mmWave channels, coupled with the narrow field of view (FoV) of patch-antenna arrays and frequent HMD rotation, can lead to poor performa
By the Merovingian Period (6–8th century CE) a large variety of dogs and the earliest evidence of dog leashes appear in South Scandinavia. This indicates exchange, breeding and use of new types of dogs in this period. The purpose of this study is to examine the social significance and function of dogs in the Merovingian Period in South Scandinavia based on an analysis of the Nabberör boat grave on
Between 2017 and 2025 Sweden is in need of an additional 600 000 homes to supply the current widespread shortage of housing. At the same time, this addition should preferably take place without taking new land in use. One way to densify effectively is to use existing industrial facilities in central locations. This thesis aims at promoting cultural and architectural history by creating recommendat
The global production and use of plastic is increasing and a substantial part will end up in aquatic environments where it will degrade into micro- and nanoplastic particles (NPPs). NPPs will interact with naturally occurring biomolecules present in aquatic environments which in turn will affect the properties of the particles. The purpose of this study was thus to investigate how organic matter a
The purpose of this master’s thesis project is to aid Thomson Reuters to forecast soil moisture, enhancing the agricultural productivity of its clients. This thesis focuses on testing the company’s HBV model (HBV-TR) to accurately produce daily soil moisture values in Brazil, France, and the U.S.A. The problem is that, up to this day, the most reliable monitoring of this soil water content is als
Mediemarknaden i Sverige har förändrats mycket de senaste decennierna och där har en ökad marknadsorientering spelat en stor roll. Under samma tid har också ägarkoncentrationen inom media ökat. En fungerande media spelar en viktig roll i en demokrati och mediekoncentration anses från de flesta håll ha negativa konsekvenser på mediemarknaden. Mångfalden samt yttrandefriheten skadas och i förlängnin
Tack vare solen och geotermisk värme har marken två naturliga källor till värmeenergi, och p.g.a. trögheten att ändra temperatur har marken en jämnare temperaturvariation än luften. Detta är gynnsamt för den som vill utnyttja geoenergi. Detta är en förnyelsebar energikälla som fått allt mer uppmärksamhet på marknaden de senaste åren. Under begreppet förnyelsebar geoenergi ligger två olika metoder;Because of the sun and geothermal heat the ground has two natural recourses for heat energy, and since the ground changes temperature slower than the air it has a more even temperature fluctuation. This is positive for the use of geothermal energy which is a renewable method that has been given more attention lately due to it positive environmental effects. The term renewable geothermal energy in
The purpose of this paper was to see whether Chapter 6 and Chapter 7 in The Genetic Integrity Act have implications for the infertile in the target groups single people, homosexual and heterosexual couples. Infertility affects between 15 and 20 percent of the population of childbearing age in Sweden and according to WHO, the World Health Organization, it is classified as a disease. Many of the aff
Citylogistik kan användas för att minska den negativa miljöpåverkan i stadskärnor. Genom olika åtgärder i form av t.ex. samordnad distribution, miljözoner och tidsregleringar kan körsträckor och antalet fordon minskas. Helsingborg har idag ett bra miljöarbete i form av tidsreglerade transporter och en miljözon vilket kan ses som bra komplement. Vår rekommendation är att stadsförnyelseprojekt och d
Bröstcancer är den vanligaste formen av cancer hos kvinnor. Fler än 7000 diagnostiseras med denna sjukdom varje år i Sverige. En del av behandlingen mot cancern är strålbehandling. För att strålbehandlingen ska ge goda effekter är det viktigt att det är den sjuka vävnaden som bestrålas, och att den friska vävnaden förskonas från strålningen i den mån det är möjligt. Detta uppnås genom noggranna stPurpose: The CatalystTM system was tested and compared with an X-ray image verification system for patient positioning during breast cancer treatment. Included was to find the optimal reference image and the optimal cropping method for the reference image. Parameters that could lead to an optimization of the treatment routines were also evaluated. Method and Material: The study was divided into t
The aim of this study in the perspective of selfdetermination was to illustrate the living conditions of persons with mental disabilities, helprecievers, living in group homes. Besides that to illustrate staff members, helpers, attitudes towards helprecievers and their living conditions. The aim was also to recieve furter information of circumstances by reading. Guiding principals were: What attit
This essay is an evaluation of studies in the Swedish language for immigrants, called "sfi", in Helsingborg. Our purpose with the study was to illuminate "sfi". We wanted to find out how "sfi" is organized. "Sfi" is contracted out to three organizers, "NK DataCenter" and "Vuxenutbildningen Kärnan" in the daytime and "ABF" in the
This paper explores the use of an automated pipeline to construct synthetic (artificially derived) trip data from aggregate socio-demographic sources to build a simulation of individual vehicles interacting with one another. The study shows that quality data sources are required in order to do this effectively and accurately. It is shown that aspects of typical patterns and behaviours may still n
In recent years, scientists have found unconfirmed evidence for a ninth planet in the solar system at a very wide orbit. The parameters for this planet are poorly constrained. Current estimates mostly come from the effect the planet has on trans-neptunian objects. Here we investigate an alternative scenario, that is whether this proposed planet can exert observable perturbation on Main Belt astero
In this project, I investigate the combination of Natural Language Processing (NLP) with Item Response Theory (IRT) to advance the assessment and scoring of open response items. Traditional psychometric assessments are grounded in well-defined quality standards, yet assessments based on natural language have missed meeting these standards. To address this gap, I integrate NLP processed open respon
