In a pulsed UWB system, either coherent receivers or transmit-reference (TR) receivers can be used to demodulate the signals. For coherent receivers, which are typically based on a Rake Structure, the large number of resolvable multipaths is a major challenge for channel estimation and receiver complexity. TR receivers can effectively collect energy from all the received multipath components with
We propose an integrated framework for the design of SOC test solutions, which includes a set of algorithms for early design space exploration as well as extensive optimization for the final solution. The framework deals with test scheduling, test access mechanism design, test sets selection, and test resource placement. Our approach minimizes the test application time and the cost of the test acc
A system arising in the modeling of oil-recovery processes is analyzed. It consists of a hyperbolic conservation law governing the saturation and an elliptic equation for the pressure. By an operator splitting approach, an approximate solution is constructed. For this approximation appropriate a-priori bounds are derived. Applying the Arzela-Ascoli theorem, local existence and uniqueness of a clas
The Transplantation Society, in collaboration with the Canadian Society of Transplantation, organized a forum on education on ODT for schools. The forum included participants from around the world, school boards, and representatives from different religions. Participants presented on their countries' experience in the area of education on ODT. Working groups discussed about technologies for educat
The introduction of Rituximab has greatly improved therapeutic options for patients with B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL). However, a substantial fraction of patients with aggressive B-NHL fails first-line therapy, and most patients with relapsing indolent B-NHL eventually acquire Rituximab resistance. Molecular understanding of the underlying mechanisms facilitates the development of pharmacol
To remain competitive in the field of manufacturing today, companies must constantly improve the automation loops within their production plants. This can be done by augmenting the automation applications with "smart services" such as supervisory-control applications or machine-learning inference algorithms. The downside is that these smart services are often hosted in a cloud infrastructure and t
The thesis assesses the role of grassroots organisations in climate action through sustainable food practices, focusing on social innovation, collective learning, community-building and local resilience inside the city of Lund, in the Skåne region of southern Sweden. It intends to understand how local groups, combining practical knowledge with community-based innovations, collaborate to build a cu
Reliable six-degree-of-freedom pose estimation is a key requirement for autonomous on-orbit servicing (OOS), in which a robotic spacecraft performs tasks such as inspection, maintenance, and life extension of other satellites in orbit. However, generating trustworthy ground truth for algorithm development remains challenging. This thesis investigates calibration, sensor evaluation, and sensor fusi
The aim of this project is to discuss how designers can contribute to gender equality and female empowerment in craft-production industry. The study was done as a collaboration with the Indian organization Industree to study methods designers can use to assure that the economic/social balance in the value chain is fair. The organization works with craft-production as a means of generating income a
Spider silk is a highly attractive biomaterial with exceptional strength and versatility, offering potential applications across numerous industries. However, large-scale production remains a significant challenge. Harvesting silk directly from spiders has proven impractical, making recombinant protein production a promising alternative. Spider silk has been studied at Lund University for several
Architecture is often seen as the art of permanence, of creating structures meant to endure. But what happens when permanence is disrupted – when buildings fall into ruin or are dismantled? This thesis explores decay, reuse, and reassembly, challenging conventional preservation by embracing impermanence and unconventional outcomes. Set in the hills of Oltrepò Pavese in southern Lombardy, it focuse
Industrial society is the reason for the rising global ecological crisis, and companies are a primary contributor to this trend. To change this course, companies must transform along with society’s green transition. In the academic debate of economics and sustainability, various competing economic paradigms suggest how to steer society towards a sustainable transformation. Based on theoretical his
Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC) is a crucial analytical tool employed by Novo Nordisk for the assessment of potential aggregation in active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) derived from peptides and protein biopharmaceuticals. This investigation focuses on SEC analyses conducted under denaturing conditions, utilizing Ultra High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HULK) adapted columns. Intrigui
This thesis describes the development process of a digital tool that can be used by locksmiths to quickly and easily find the right components for repairing and replacing electronic locking mechanisms. The tool took the form of a mobile application and was developed in collaboration with Robust Ellåsning AB in Malmö, Sweden. The report describes an iterative, human-centered design process, from da
With the development of the global economy and human society, population growth and urbanization, water resources are becoming more and more important, and the monitoring of water resources is also crucial. Therefore, this article designed a system for monitoring PH level in water, and designed a wireless transmission system based on LoRa technology. According to the actual application requir
This section gives an overview of Lake Victoria, that is currently underutilized for cargo transportation by the 3 East African states of Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania, despite the great potential of this shared water body for multimodal transport and trade opportunities. In order to sustainably develop infrastructure on Lake Victoria, the three member states must adopt sustainable business models t
Spatial transcriptomics, a powerful technique that merges sequencing and spatial data, offers unprecedented resolution for studying gene expression within tissues. This study focuses on developing a pipeline to design probes for Multiplexed Error-Robust Fluorescence In Situ Hybridisation (MERFISH) experiments to investigate the spatial distribution of the lung microbiome.
