Performance Optimization By Dual Bt Signal Directivity Enhancement, Hp Inc

Defensive Publications Series

Multiple antenna WiFi can achieve beamforming because the WiFi standard supports MU-MIMO technology, allowing WiFi devices to simultaneously send different data streams to multiple users. By adjusting the phase and amplitude of multiple antennas based on the CSI mechanism and matrix calculation, WiFi devices can form a main beam, concentrating the signal in a specific direction, thereby improving communication efficiency and stability.

The Bluetooth standard currently does not support the mechanisms necessary for beamforming, such as MU-MIMO. Even the Bluetooth device has multiple antennas, Bluetooth device still cannot utilize them for beamforming.

Agricultural Producers' Perceptions Of Stressors: A Study On Controllability And Persistency, Mary Nelson Robertson, Devon Mills, Brice A. Fortinberry, Mary Marshall Waller, Hunter H. Thompson, Marina Denny, David Buys

Journal of Public Health in the Deep South

Farm stress negatively impacts agricultural producers’ (APs) physical and mental health. The average age of agricultural producers has increased in every USDA agricultural census since 1945, and the stressors may be either or both caused or exacerbated by increasing age. The Cooperative Extension Service is well-known for working with APs and is well-equipped to address these concerns for this aging population. To better understand farm-related stressors, this study examines APs’ and Extension agents’ perceptions of major stressors faced by APs. Focus groups were held to identify stressors and determine the controllability and persistency of those stressors. The mean age of …

The Geopolitical Configuration Of Okinawa In Post-War Japan: Focusing On Tatsuhiro Ōshiro’S The Cocktail Party, Yeonhee Woo

Kritika Kultura

Okinawa, located at the southernmost tip of Japan, has greater proximity to Taiwan than its home country, Japan, as well as a unique historical character. After being forcibly incorporated into Japan in 1879, the island was devastated by the Battle of Okinawa which was waged against Japan by the United States in 1945. After Japan was defeated in the Pacific War, Okinawa was separated from the mainland and held under the occupation of the US military. In particular, the 1960s was a time when the “return to the mainland” movement, which advocated a return to Japan after escaping from the …

A Phenomenological Study Of Islandness As A Global Sense Of Place: Focusing On The Animated Film Moana, Taehee Kim

Kritika Kultura

This article explores the question of whether islandness exists, and if so, how it can be defined. Using phenomenological methods, it examines a cultural text relevant to this question: the animated film Moana, which tells a story set on a small island. Following phenomenological procedures, any unexamined preconceptions about islandness are methodologically excluded through the suspension of judgment (epoché); islandness is defined as the “sense of place of the island” through a return to intersubjective intentionality (phenomenological reduction); the “essence” of this sense of place of the island is identified through imaginative variation (eidetic reduction). This discourse will shed light …

Youtube Digital Storytelling Of Korean Uninhabited Islands, Jooyoung Kim

Kritika Kultura

South Korea, with its extensive coastline and numerous islands, such as Jejudo, Ulleungdo, and Dokdo, is home to several uninhabited islands. These uninhabited islands embody dual roles as nostalgic symbols and territorial entities while also enduring marginalization and distortion stemming from their inhospitable conditions. Nonetheless, the emergence of recent trends in YouTube digital storytelling within South Korea has propelled uninhabited islands into the spotlight, as a result of which these islands have received considerable attention. By examining the creation and reception of YouTube narratives, we can gain valuable insights into the ever-evolving landscape of digital culture and its broader implications …

From an examination of canonical works from Tatsuhiro Oshiro’s The Cocktail Party to an investigation of more contemporary materials found on media such as YouTube and a Disney film, this article aims to examine how the featured essays closely study the concept of “islands” and how its interconnection with and influence on mobility.

Rituals And Magic On The Transition Of Sacredness In Folk Religion In Central Vietnam, Dang Huu Nguyen

Kritika Kultura

This article examines the dynamics of sacredness in Central Vietnamese folk religion. It utilizes a qualitative approach, specifically ethnographic fieldwork and in-depth interviews in the community of Danang estuary in Central Vietnam, to study rituals and magic, specifically those involved in purifying, de-sanctifying, and re-sanctifying religious artifacts. The findings of this study demonstrate that the concept of sacredness is not fixed; rather, it continuously fluctuates between states of sanctification and de-sanctification. Additionally, the dynamics of the sacred is subject to change and is attributed with different values when transferred across cultural contexts. Based on these observations, this article emphasizes the …

The Importance Of Bearing Witness In Edwin Cameron’S Witness To Aids (2005), Oscar Ortega Montero

Kritika Kultura

Edwin Cameron’s memoir Witness to AIDS (2005) was the first HIV/AIDS memoir published in South Africa in the midst of the worst years of the epidemic. The narrative discloses essential facts about his experience living with the virus. In this paper, I argue that Edwin Cameron’s intellectually savvy and powerful testimony opened up a widespread national debate on citizen participation in policy-decision making and public accountability in South Africa. My analysis revolves on the interplay between whiteness, privilege, and access to life-saving drugs in the on-going construction of democratic and transparent post-Apartheid South Africa. Edwin Cameron’s position of privilege as …

Photographic Power: Scenes From The United States And The Philippines, Vicente L. Rafael

Kritika Kultura

This essay takes its inspiration from a series of addresses given by the former slave and radical abolitionist Frederick Douglass. Douglass hailed the promise of photography to bring forth democratic modes of representation. He saw in photography the power to bring distances up close and level social hierarchies by revealing the common humanity of those below with those above. Douglass, however, hedged his optimistic view. He saw that the “vast power” of photography also came with great danger. It can reveal truth but it can also foster error depending on “the master we obey.” It is this double-edged power of …

Give My Heart Ease: Filiality And Responsibility In Clarissa In Light Of Levinasian And Confucian Ethics, Ying Xiong

Kritika Kultura

Much has been said about the elements of plot, allegorical allusions, and the Christian design underlying character tendencies in Samuel Richardson’s Clarissa. That said, few scholars notice the intricate mechanism of filiality and responsibility that constantly functions in Clarissa’s ethical quest. Arguably, there are two categories of filiality in Clarissa, one being Levinasian, which always responds to the absolute singularity of the Other, and the other being Confucian, which demands responsibility to a totality. Judging from her struggle, one surmises that two ethical principles colliding within Clarissa’s mind as she responds to her relations mainly arise from her Levinasian sense …

Green Buddhism And W. S. Merwin’S Eco-Poetry, Jiyong Geng, Jie Zhang

Kritika Kultura

This article explores the profound influence of Buddhist environmental thought on the poetry of W.S. Merwin. It discusses how Merwin integrates Buddhist philosophies such as interdependent arising (pratītya-samutpāda), emptiness (śūnyatā), non-self (anātman), compassion (karunā), and the concept of Buddha nature into his poetic work, highlighting themes such as ecological interconnectedness, the rejection of anthropocentrism, and the intrinsic value of nature. The article examines how Merwin’s use of these themes not only enriches his poetic expression but also contributes to the broader discourse on green Buddhism, bridging the gap between human experience and ecological consciousness.
