BLAST: Bell Labs Layered Space-Time An Architecture for Realizing Very High Data Rates over Fading Wireless Channels What is BLAST? BLAST is an extraordinarily bandwidth-efficient approach to wireless communication which takes advantage of the spatial dimension by transmitting and detecting a number of independent co-channel data streams using multiple, essentially co-located, antennas. The central paradigm behind BLAST is the exploitation, rather than the mitigation, of multipath effects in order to achieve very high spectral efficiencies (bits/sec/Hz), significantly higher than are possible when multipath is viewed as an adversary rather than an ally. Using our laboratory testbed, the BLAST team recently demonstrated what we believe to be unprecedented wireless spectral efficiencies, ranging from 20 - 40 bps/Hz . By comparison, the efficiencies achieved using traditional wireless modulation techniques range from around 1 - 5 bps/Hz (mobile cellular) to around 10 - 12 bps/Hz (point-to-point fixed microwave systems). In the 30 kHz bandwidth utilized by our research testbed, the raw spectral efficiencies realized thus far in the lab correspond to payload data rates ranging from roughly 0.5 Mb/s to 1 Mb/s. By contrast, the data rate achievable in this bandwidth using typical traditional methods is only about 50 kbps. This high-level overview discusses BLAST in more detail.

105. [AHRI] - Aware Home Research Initiative We integrate a variety of technologies throughout the home space, which range Othertechnology projects • MultiCamera Eye/Head Tracking • Fusion of audio http://www.cc.gatech.edu/fce/ahri/projects/

What are the fundamental technical, design and social challenges presented by an aware home? The Aware Home Research Initiative (AHRI) is an interdisciplinary research endeavor at the Georgia Institute of Technology that addresses challenges facing the future of domestic technologies. A unique and critical resource in this activity is the Georgia Tech Broadband Institute Residential Laboratory, a three-story, 5040-square-foot home that functions as a living laboratory for interdisciplinary design, development and evaluation. Research Agenda The research agenda of AHRI spans four complementary themes. Design for People We design interactive experiences appropriate for people in an aware home environment; particularly enabling older adults to age in place. Technology We develop the building blocks to create highly distributed sensing and perception technology, developing awareness of human activity in physical environments. Software Engineering Social Implications We explore the social, political, legal and economic benefits and concerns related to privacy and autonomy when services exploit awareness and knowledge of human activity within the protected space of a home.

SEARCH SITE SEARCH: WEB SEARCH: EMAIL ARTICLE LINK TO ARTICLE PRINT ARTICLE Article Published: Tuesday, February 04, 2003 aerospace students eye uncertain future CU space projects in limbo Campus-built Hubble upgrade set for installation in '04 By Theo Stein , Denver Post Staff Writer Sometime in early 2005, scientists and students at the University of Colorado were planning to see the first data from the new Cosmic Origins Spectrograph, a $50 million upgrade to the Hubble space telescope that could peel back time to reveal how galaxies are formed. Since the sophisticated, phone booth-sized spectrograph is being built on the Boulder campus, researchers in the university's Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences program will get first crack at analyzing the faint signatures of ultraviolet light from interstellar space hundreds of thousands of light years away. The opportunity to work at the cutting edge of astrophysics is a juicy academic plum that is already drawing students and post-doctoral scientists to CU. "We are guaranteed all the data from 522 orbits plus what we expected to win in subsequent research proposals," said Michael Shull, chairman of the university's Astrophysical and Planetary Sciences Program. "That's the real reward. We would get paid $25 million to analyze data."

Home Projects Earth Observing-1 (EO-1) Overview Rendering of Earth Observing-1 spacecraft The NASA New Millennium Program (NMP) is intended to demonstrate technologies critical to future Earth orbiting and deep space spacecraft. After NMP validation of the selected technologies, future projects can use them without adding risks to their primary science or exploration missions. Pulsed Plasma Thrusters (PPTs) are electric propulsion devices which offer unique benefits to a broad range of spacecraft. A PPT was selected for demonstration on the Earth Observing-1 (EO-1) New Millennium mission as a step to more extensive uses on future missions. EO-1 Pulsed Plasma Thruster. View larger image General Description A single axis PPT was developed to demonstrate use of a PPT as a spacecraft attitude control thruster. Previous uses of PPT technology on spacecraft (in the 60's and 70's) have been for other spacecraft propulsion functions. In the EO-1 experiment, the PPT is mounted on the spacecraft to control the pitch axis, with two thrust vectors in opposing directions to provide positive and negative pitch maneuvers. The EO-1 PPT weighs approximately 5 kg and has enough propellant for 30 days of nominal operations. The experiment is planned to last a minimum of 3 days.

Today, we ask the same profound questions: How did the universe begin and evolve? How did we get here? Where are we going? Are we alone? Today, after only the blink of an eye in cosmic time, we are beginning to answer these questions. Space probes and space observatories have played a central role in this process of discovery. Our missions and research generate most of the coolest news coming out of NASA. We are responsible for all of NASA's programs relating to astronomy, the solar system, and the sun and its interaction with Earth. Our science stretches from the middle levels of Earth's atmosphere to the beginning of the universe, billions of light years away.

Contact Us Search Advanced Search Inventor, developer and customer together speed up far-reaching technology innovation Fast lane for space technology innovation 18 March 2004 A new ESA initiative got underway this week to speed up the turnaround time from idea to product. The aim is to support the fast introduction of breakthrough innovations in the European space industry by combining the creativity and expertise of the research community, space customers and industry. The Innovation Triangle Initiative (ITI) is based on the concept that close collaboration between the three parties involved - the inventor, the developer and the customer - is a must for the rapid and successful introduction of breakthrough technology innovations in industry. The ability to rapidly introduce novel products, technologies and services is a recognised key element in maintaining industrial competitiveness. ITI will provide early financial, networking and technical support, thus contributing to a more competitive European space industry. "We want to provide a new tool to identify, demonstrate and validate novel ideas, technologies and concepts for space application in a fast and efficient manner," says Marco Guglielmi, head of Technology Strategy Section in ESA's Technology Programmes Department, one of the founders of the initiative.
