    Abstract: The traditional courts often do not provide chance for effectively communicating the grievance of a person. Meanwhile Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) systems such as arbitration, mediation, negotiation etc. primarily offer an ear to hear the problems. This has contributed to the growth of ADR worldwide. With the penetration of internet and int... Show More

    Abstract: In order to provide a higher peak data rate, carrier aggregation (CA) is implemented into Long Term Evolution Advanced (LTE-A) systems. However, more and more downlink hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) feedback information need to be transmitted. Especially, in time division duplexing (TDD) systems must comply with the updownconfig, the comple... Show More

    Abstract: Site diversity (SD) is an effective technique for mitigating rain attenuation in satellite communications, especially in regions where rainfall rates are high. Nigeria is characterised by the tropical climate, this implies that rainfall rates are generally high. This paper presents a study of the seasonal variation of site diversity technique in Ni...
