Large-Size AlGaN/GaN HEMT Large-Signal Electrothermal Characterization and Modeling for Wireless Digital Communications
(2012-03-29)
The rapid growth in high data rate communication systems has introduced new high spectral efficient modulation techniques and standards such as LTE-A (long term evolution-advanced) for 4G (4th generation) systems. These techniques have provided a broader bandwidth but introduced high peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) problem at the high power amplifier (HPA) level of the communication system base transceiver station (BTS). To avoid spectral spreading due to high PAR, stringent requirement on linearity is needed which ...

Substrate Conformal Imprint Lithography als innovatives Verfahren zur Herstellung von Nanospektrometern im sichtbaren Spektralbereich
(2012-07-16)
Selbstbestimmung und -gestaltung des eigenen Alltages gewinnen immer mehr an Bedeutung, insbesondere für ältere Mitmenschen in ländlichen Regionen, die auf ärztliche Versorgung angewiesen sind. Die Schaffung sogenannter smart personal environments mittels einer Vielzahl von, nahezu unsichtbar installierten Sensoren im gewohnten Lebensraum liefert dem Anwender (lebens-) notwendige Informationen über seine Umgebung oder seinen eigenen Körper. Dabei gilt es nicht den Anwender mit technischen Daten, wie Spektren, zu ...

Alternative plant protein sources for pigs and chickens in the tropics – nutritional value and constraints: a review
(Kassel University Press, 2012)
In the tropics, a large number of smallholder farms contribute significantly to food security by raising pigs and poultry for domestic consumption and for sale on local markets. The high cost and, sometimes, the lack of availability of commercial protein supplements is one of the main limitations to efficient animal production by smallholders. Locally-grown forages and grain legumes offer ecological benefits such as nitrogen fixation, soil improvement, and erosion control which contribute to improve cropping efficiency. ...

Is export orientation a major motivator for the adoption of food safety systems in the Turkish dried fig firms?
(Kassel University Press, 2012)
Food safety management systems (FSMSs) and the scrutinisation of the food safety practices that are intended for adoption on the firm level both offer strategic value to the dried fig sector. This study aims to prove the hypothesis that export orientation is a major motivating force for the adoption of food safety systems in the Turkish dried fig firms. Data were obtained from 91 dried fig firms located in Aydin, Turkey. Interviews were carried out with firms’ managers/owners using a face-to-face questionnaire designed ...

Effects of dietary lipid source on growth, digestibility and tissue fatty acid composition of Heterobranchus longifilis fingerlings
(Kassel University Press, 2012)
One of the major problems facing aquaculture is the inadequate supply of fish oil mostly used for fish feed manufacturing. The continued growth in aquaculture production cannot depend on this finite feed resources, therefore, it is imperative that cheap and readily available substitutes that do not compromise fish growth and fillet quality be found. To achieve this, a 12-week feeding trial with Heterobranchus longifilis fed diets differing in lipid source was conducted. Diets were supplemented with 6% lipid as fish ...

Effects of red brick production on land use, household income, and greenhouse gas emissions in Khartoum, Sudan
(Kassel University Press, 2012)
In Khartoum (Sudan) a particular factor shaping urban land use is the rapid expansion of red brick making (BM) for the construction of houses which occurs on the most fertile agricultural Gerif soils along the Nile banks. The objectives of this study were to assess the profitability of BM, to explore the income distribution among farmers and kiln owners, to measure the dry matter (DM), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K) and organic carbon (C_org) in cow dung used for BM, and to estimate the greenhouse gas ...

Influence of education levels on dissemination of soil fertility management information in the central highlands of Kenya
(Kassel University Press, 2012)
Inadequate links between researchers and farmers has resulted in low uptake of research advances recommended to improve food security in the central highlands of Kenya. Access to timely and accurate information by extension agents and farmers is paramount in dissemination of soil fertility management practices. Hence, the study sought to investigate the effect of education levels on communication channels used to disseminate soil fertility technologies in the Central highlands of Kenya. Questionnaires were used to ...

Economic evaluation of proposed pure and mixed stands in Central Vietnam highlands
(Kassel University Press, 2012)
In comparison with mixed forest stands, the cultivation of pure plantations in Vietnam entails serious ecological consequences such as loss of biodiversity and higher rate of soil erosion. The economic evaluation is elaborated between pure plantations and mixed forests where the fast-growing tree species are mixed with slow growing tree species which are planted in stripes separating the segments with fast-growing tree species (Acacia sp.). For the evaluation, the input values were used from local costs of goods, ...
