We present a measurement system and method for characterising the 60 GHz time-domain wireless propagation channel using commercially available and cost effective equipment. Our measurements campaign focuses on characterizing shadowing attenuation due... Read More about 60 GHz time-domain propagation measurement system.

A Generalized Analysis of Three-Dimensional Anisotropic Scattering in Mobile Wireless Channels-Part II: Second-Order Statistical Characterization (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Karadimas, P., & Zhang, J. (2012, September). A Generalized Analysis of Three-Dimensional Anisotropic Scattering in Mobile Wireless Channels-Part II: Second-Order Statistical Characterization. Presented at 2012 IEEE Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Fall), Quebec City, QC, Canada

In a recent paper [1], we presented a generalized theoretical analysis for the diffuse multipath power in mobile wireless channels accounting for three-dimensional (3-D) multi-modal (i.e., clustered) scattering. In this paper, a parameterized case-st...

Aimbot detection in online fps games using a heuristic method based on distribution comparison matrix (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Yu, S.-Y., Hammerla, N., Yan, J., & Andras, P. (2012, November). Aimbot detection in online fps games using a heuristic method based on distribution comparison matrix. Presented at 19th International Conference, ICONIP 2012, Doha, Qatar

Online gaming is very popular and has gained some recognition as the so called e-sport over the last decade. However, in particular First Person Shooter (FPS) games suffer from the development of sophisticated cheating methods such as aiming robots (...

Computer Anxiety and the Big Five (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Crabbe, S. J., & Andras, P. (2012, November). Computer Anxiety and the Big Five. Presented at PPIG 2012 - 24th Annual Workshop, London

This paper explores the relationship between personality traits, as described by the Big Five Factors model, and the likelihood of someone suffering from computer anxiety. The research sample was a cohort of Business School Undergraduates. It was fou... Read More about Computer Anxiety and the Big Five.

Renewable heat incentive for solar thermal systems in the United Kingdom: The next big thing? (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Abu-Bakar, S. H., Muhammad-Sukki, F., Ramirez-Iniguez, R., Burek, S., Mallick, T. K., McLennan, C., Munir, A. B., & Yasin, S. H. M. (2012, December). Renewable heat incentive for solar thermal systems in the United Kingdom: The next big thing?. Presented at 2012 IEEE International Conference on Power and Energy (PECon), Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia

This paper focuses on the renewable heat incentive (RHI) scheme in the United Kingdom (UK); and in particular, on its implications in relation to solar thermal systems. First, a short review on the UK's energy demand is provided. Then, a brief explan... Read More about Renewable heat incentive for solar thermal systems in the United Kingdom: The next big thing?.

Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Menkovski, V., Exarchakos, G., & Liotta, A. (2011, September). Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE. Presented at 7th International ICST Conference, MOBIMEDIA 2011, Cagliari, Italy

Maximum Likelihood Difference Scaling (MLDS) used as a method for subjective assessment of video quality alleviates the inconveniencies associated with high variation and biases common in rating methods. However, the number of tests in a MLDS study r... Read More about Tackling the sheer scale of subjective QoE.

Farewell to deterministic networks (2012)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Liotta, A. (2012, November). Farewell to deterministic networks. Presented at 2012 19th IEEE Symposium on Communications and Vehicular Technology in the Benelux (SCVT), Eindhoven, Netherlands

As communication networks become increasingly complex and dynamic, the three functions known as monitoring, control and management prove to be ineffective. It is increasingly difficult to operate large networks, perform diagnostics, prevent cascading... Read More about Farewell to deterministic networks.
