RF impairments in high-rate wireless systems - understanding the impact of TX/RX-asymmetry

Dealing with radio frequency (RF) front-end impairments will be one of the major design challenges for next-generation wireless communication systems due to conflicting requirements, such as high data rate, low cost and low power consumption. The use of digital compensation of the imperfections appears a very promising method to meet...

The V-Cycle for system innovation translating a broad societal need into concrete product service solutions: The multifunctional centre Apeldoorn case

In this paper a system innovation project is presented in which a sustainable future vision with a long-term perspective was developed and translated into short-term commercial innovation opportunities, which in turn can benefit the longer-term vision of society. The case described is a three-year innovation project, in which TNO worked together...
