ABSTRACT
Operation in multiple frequency bands simultaneously is an important enabler for future wireless communication systems. This article presents a new concept for scheduling transmissions in a wireless radio system operating in multiple frequency bands: the Multiband Scheduler (MBS). The MBS ensures that the operation in multiple bands is transparent to higher network layers. Special attention is paid to achieving low delay and latency when operating the system in the multiband mode. In particular, we propose additions to the ARQ procedures in order to achieve this. Deployment details and assessment results are presented for two multiband deployment scenarios. The first scenario is operation in a spectrum sharing context where multiple bands are used: one dedicated band for basic service and one shared extension band for extended services. In the second scenario we consider multiband operation in a relay environment, where the two bands have different propagation properties and relays provide extra coverage and capacity in the whole cell.

Does Immigration Promote the Investment of the Monopolistic Firm?

In the present paper, we examine the effect of increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth on the optimal timing of investment of a firm that has a monopolistic power over the labor market. It is revealed that when the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is more than a threshold level, increasing uncertainty of immigrants’ growth accelerates the optimal timing of firms’ investment and enhances the economic growth, even if the uncertainty of immigrants’ growth is formulated by the geometric Brownian motion, which is in sharp contrast to the standard result that an increase in the uncertainty postpones the optimal timing. With an increase in the immigrants over the past ten years, workforces in the host countries have been growing significantly to the extent that the immigrants represent 70% of the increase in the workforce in Europe, and 47% in the United States as OECD indicates. In the present paper, we attempted to investigate the effect of increased uncertainty caused by the growi...

Education Policy Implementation: A Mechanism for Enhancing Primary Education Development in Zanzibar

Education is one of the fundamental rights of individuals; therefore, the government of a country needs to develop and strengthen educational policy and quality as well as to ensure that everyone has equal access to basic education. The improvement of access and quality of education in the world is becoming as an essential factor in development, whereas the basic education (primary school), is acknowledged as a foundation of the higher educational development for every country. To fulfill this goal, governments introduce several policies and procedures; however, it requires some reforms and participation from the politician, policymakers, and other stakeholders to re-examine educational policy so that it can lead to multiplication and betterment of the reforms. Educational reforms actually focus on accountability. A positive educational development and reform is very challenging and needs more effort and strategy on how to use and utilize the resources effectively as such it can achie...
