ENERGY-EFFICIENT MICROWAVE COMPONENTS FOR MOBILE COMMUNICATION

In the coexisted world of 3G,4G,5G and many other specialized wireless communication systems,billions of connections could be existing for various information transmission types.Unluckily,data show that the increase of network capacity is heavily more than the increase of the network energy efficiency in recent years,which could lead to more energy consumption per transmitted bit in the future network.As basic units in mobile communication systems,microwave/RF components and modules play key roles

Sapphirine in the high-grade quartzofeldspathic gneiss of the Larsemann Hills,East Antarctica

Study of sapphirine and related mineral association in the high-grade region of the Larsemann Hills, East Antarctica, shows that sapphirine of the area is characterized by its magnesio-, iron- and aluminum-rich, but silica-poor feature, and the obvious intra- and intergrain changes in compositions. The change is mainly mani- fested as the Tschermark substitution （ Mg, Fe） ＋ Si =2A1. In the high-grade meta-morphism and anatexis process the multistage crystallization of minerals occurred and resulted in the complexity of the mineral association, such as the differentiation of leuco-and melano-components. Among them, the mafic-rich minerals formed earlier, and the differentiation of magnesio-and iron-components is responsible for the earlier presence of iron-rich minerals and later crystallization of magnesio-rich minerals, thus the successive associations of multistage occurred. The rock composition is an important but not critical factor to the occurrence of sapphirine. It is the mobilization of components that accounts for the formation of sapphirine. The multistage evolution of mineral association to some degree reflects the changing composition and opening of the setting. It is therefore deduced that the protolith from which sapphirine is derived is not necessarily magnesio-rich pelite. The heterogeneity of sapphirine composition is resulted from the various media, not the PT changes. Sapphirine formed at 840-880℃ ,not the so-called ultrahigh temperature condition（〉 1000℃）. Its formation is related to both the filtration and diffusion processes in high-grade metamor-phism and anatexis.

ARCHITECTURE AND ITS IMPLEMENTATION FOR ROBOTS TO NAVIGATE IN UNKNOWN INDOOR ENVIRONMENTS

It is discussed with the design and implementation of an architecture for a mobile robot to navigate in dynamic and anknown indoor environments. The architecture is based on the framework of Open Robot Control Software at KTH （OROCOS@KTH）, which is also discussed and evaluated to navigate indoor efficiently, a new algorithm named door-like-exit detection is proposed which employs 2D feature oft. door and extracts key points of pathway from the raw data of a laser scanner. As a hybrid architecture, it is decomposed into several basic components which can be classified as either deliberative or reactive. Each component can concurrently execute and communicate with another. It is expansible and transferable and its components are reusable.
