Free Download Stochastic Geometry Analysis of Space-Air-Ground Networks
English | 2024 | ISBN: 9819762650 | 150 Pages | PDF EPUB (True) | 24 MB
This book presents a comprehensive framework for the theoretical analysis of space-air-ground networks using stochastic geometry. This analytical approach is indispensable for evaluating the performance of large-scale space-air-ground networks, which serve as critical facilitators for the advancement of the sixth-generation wireless communication aimed at providing high-speed broadband coverage for remote areas. By incorporating the features of topology and channel model in different tiers, this book investigates the key performance metrics in terms of load balancing, coverage assessment, and mobility management. The developed mechanisms provide effective design insights for space-air-ground networks while obviating the need for complex system-level simulations.

Free Download Kelli Lawrence, "Skating on Air: The Broadcast History of an Olympic Marquee Sport"
English | ISBN: 0786446080 | 2011 | 244 pages | EPUB | 16 MB
Of all winter sports, none is so widely watched and commented upon by the media as figure skating, which is often considered the Winter Olympics’ centerpiece. This critical text examines the ways in which media attention has gradually altered and affected the sport, from the early appearances of Sonja Henie, to skating’s gradual audience growth via television, and to the ramifications of the scandals in the 1994 and 2002 Olympics. The topic is illuminated by more than 30 interviews with commentators, skaters, producers, directors and others. In addition to numerous photos, illustrations show the compulsory figures for which "figure skating" got its name, as well as a sample of the charted-out "camera blocking" for TV directors. Appendices include collected anecdotes from early broadcasting experiences; a profile of broadcaster Jim McKay; and commentary from Carol Heiss on her 1961 musical

Free Download Tobias Arnoldussen, "The Social Construction of the Dutch Air Quality Clash: How Road Expansions Bit the Dust Against Particulate Matter"
English | ISBN: 946236639X | 2016 | 458 pages | PDF | 16 MB
From a small policy issue in the 1990s, air quality became a hotly debated public problem in Dutch law and politics in 2004. During the political and legal clash over air quality in the years 2004 – 2010, Dutch infrastructure development and road expansion grinded to all but a halt on account of exceedance of the legal standards for air pollution. Tobias Arnoldussen analyses this sudden emergence of air pollution on the Dutch political agenda by reviewing court cases, policy documents, European Environmental Law and the alarming research data on a new type of air pollution, Particulate Matter. By using social constructivism and discourse analysis as methods of socio-legal inquiry, Arnoldussen relates the emergence of the clash to innovative legal strategies of the environmental movement, the concerns of epidemiologists, ambitious European policy makers and an activist judiciary wielding its substantial political influence. On the level of law and policy the clash is considered to be the result of the increasing Europeanisation of Environmental Law, the failed ecological modernisation of mobility and the increasing role of a precautionary approach in European and Dutch law and policy.

Free Download Michael Milde, "International Air Law and ICAO: Third Edition (18) Ed 3"
English | ISBN: 9462366195 | 2016 | 466 pages | PDF | 21 MB
This is the third edition of the acclaimed International Air Law and ICAO, first published in 2008. The book has been fully updated to take the latest developments into account. Specialized legal literature dealing with different aspects of international air law is rare, the developments often overtake the existing writings and there is a continuous need not only for updating but also for future-oriented thinking. There is a practical need for a compact but exhaustive and easily comprehensible textbook or reference book that deals with the most general aspects of international air law, as well as with the constitutional issues and law-making functions of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). This book fills this gap as it is a general treatise of the law of international civil aviation aimed at the needs of university students and educators, government authorities, airlines, practicing lawyers, journalists, international organizations and the general public. This book is motivated by the author’s 25 years of experience (1966-1991) in the Secretariat of ICAO in Montreal – his last eight years as Director of the Legal Bureau. In equal measure the inspiration for the content of this book came from the author’s academic work as Director of the Institute of Air and Space Law of McGill University (1989-1998) and his role as Professor of Law at that Institute until 2006 teaching this subject to graduate students from different parts of the world and different legal cultures.

Free Download Air Pollution Prevention and Control: Bioreactors and Bioenergy By
2013 | 551 Pages | ISBN: 1119943310 | PDF | 9 MB
In recent years, air pollution has become a major worldwide concern. Air pollutants can affect metabolic activity, impede healthy development, and exhibit carcinogenic and toxic properties in humans. Over the past two decades, the use of microbes to remove pollutants from contaminated air streams has become a widely accepted and efficient alternative to the classical physical and chemical treatment technologies. Air Pollution Prevention and Control: Bioreactors and Bioenergy focusses on these biotechnological alternatives looking at both the optimization of bioreactors and the development of cleaner biofuels.Structured in five parts, the book covers:Fundamentals and microbiological aspectsBiofilters, bioscrubbers and other end-of-pipe treatment technologiesSpecific applications of bioreactorsBiofuels production from pollutants and renewable resources (including biogas, biohydrogen, biodiesel and bioethanol) and its environmental impactsCase studies of applications including biotrickling filtration of waste gases, industrial bioscrubbers applied in different industries and biogas upgrading Air Pollution Prevention and Control: Bioreactors and Bioenergy is the first reference work to give a broad overview of bioprocesses for the mitigation of air pollution.
