One of the primary premises of cellular technology is Frequency re-use (time division is as well, combined called OFDMA) but just in terms of Freq re-use, if you want to increase the capacity of a cellular system then you want to reduce the

I grew up in a farm where chores are a way of life. Our parents had a chalk board in the kitchen that listed out what each of us was supposed to do and a price next to it. We got paid a certain amount for each one. I think it's a great

My two cents... When a company lays off their most experienced engineers year over year over year... this is what happens. Just my humble opinion of the real root cause.

I think CPAP users are getting scammed, just sleep on your side, all primates instinctively know to do that. Humans are the only primate that insists on sleeping on their back. Obviously if you throw up will asleep on your back you will die

Why do people need CPAP machines, why can't you simply sleep on your side? Most primates instinctively know how to sleep in the best positions ( https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1119282/ ) hum

FCC-18-38A1.pdf say 10.7Ghz - 12.7Ghz, that's a lot of spectrum. Depending on the SINR they get, which depends on the power, antenna sizes etc. you could get some pretty good speeds, probably above 100Mbps. But at those frequencies not

The amount of BW is based on how much spectrum you have (see Shannon's Law). I am not sure how much they have. Also, I am not sure they will have enough power to provide in building service.

Yes, I see both sides of the argument, but it is intriguing to think about, say for example if the Inca empire had continued to develop? I was reading about their system of communication that involved the Quipu which used a series of knots

I can give one example explanation. My Father is an evangelical Christian (FYI, I am not, I am an atheist and a science enthusiast). I have asked him this exact same question out of curiosity. Here is the answer he gave (albeit just one per

I wonder if it would make a good fire retardant. The water would heat up and make steam and burst out along with some CO2 trapped in it.

One of the keys here that a lot of people miss is that mm-wave alone will not fill the BB need. It is the combination of sub-6ghz and mm-wave. 5Gnr works in high band, mm-wave and low/mid-band. This is the key, using each in the approp

Or what about say a sort of balloon that is partially filled with helium such that is it just shy of neutral buoyancy, that would be like low gravity. Then perhaps a person could do 100's. Maybe.

The company I am currently working for is doing those and they are making it fun for the employees keeping score and doing prizes, people are actually having fun with it. Kind of a cool approach I think, and it seems to be working too.

I believe it might be possible to replace the HD firmware that will effectively hide code, even in the HD firmware itself, that can only be accessed via a backdoor. For all we know, it comes that way from the factory. Just thinking, while w
