Instructions

Reading digital theses in the closed network of the Aalto University Harald Herlin Learning Centre

In the closed network of Learning Centre you can read digital and digitized theses not available in the open network.

The Learning Centre contact details and opening hours: https://learningcentre.aalto.fi/en/harald-herlin-learning-centre/

You can read theses on the Learning Centre customer computers, which are available on all floors.

Logging on to the customer computers

  • Aalto University staff members log on to the customer computer using the Aalto username and password.
  • Other customers log on using a shared username and password.

Opening a thesis

  • On the desktop of the customer computers, you will find an icon titled:

    Aalto Thesis Database

  • Click on the icon to search for and open the thesis you are looking for from Aaltodoc database. You can find the thesis file by clicking the link on the OEV or OEVS field.

Reading the thesis

  • You can either print the thesis or read it on the customer computer screen.
  • You cannot save the thesis file on a flash drive or email it.
  • You cannot copy text or images from the file.
  • You cannot edit the file.

Printing the thesis

  • You can print the thesis for your personal study or research use.
  • Aalto University students and staff members may print black-and-white prints on the PrintingPoint devices when using the computer with personal Aalto username and password. Color printing is possible using the printer u90203-psc3, which is located near the customer service. Color printing is subject to a charge to Aalto University students and staff members.
  • Other customers can use the printer u90203-psc3. All printing is subject to a charge to non-University members.

Abstract (eng):The need for broadband residential access is growing.
Among the different access systems, radio systems can provide an economical means of realising a broadband last mile solution.

The frequencies available for a broadband radio system are very high, 27 GHz and 42 GHz.
A system operating at these frequencies has a strict LOS restriction.
This means that every residence in a certain area cannot be guaranteed availability of the service.
The rain attenuation is also significant at these frequencies.

Beyond the well known multiple access methods FDMA, TDMA and CDMA, new multiple access methods have been suggested for broadband systems.
Especially TDMA with adaptive modulation schemes and MC-CDMA systems are proposed.

When discussing broadband wireless communication, ATM has gained much popularity as the platform on which the broadband services can be transported.
Wireless ATM is standardised by the ATM Forum.
QoS is another important aspect of ATM.
Real time broadband services have strict QoS requirements and ATM can guarantee QoS.

To date the only available specification on fixed broadband radio access is the specification made by DAVIC.
Other standardisation bodies such as ETSI project BRAN is working on a standard for fixed broadband radio access, this project is scheduled to finish in 2005.
The DAVIC standard specifies the lower layer protocols and physical interfaces.
Downstream communication is based on ATM or MPEG-2 transport streams and upstream communication is based on ATM transport stream.

The competing technologies that offer a solution to the broadband last mile problem are LMDS, xDSL, cable modems, and satellite.
The advantages of LMDS are the possibility of rapid deployment, small initial cost, two way capability, and flexibility.
LMDS is flexible to build out and to reconfigure.
