Framework for Digital Public Goods in Least Developed Countries
Digital public goods (DPGs) are quickly being recognized as indispensable to countries’ digital transformation process, helping countries shorten their learning and adoption curve. Enabling the development and adoption of DPG has become a priority. This paper outlines a framework for digital public goods (DPGs) and explains the role of the…
Discussion on Measurement Test Distance for Determining EIRP or TRP for Active Antenna Systems
This paper discusses general guidance and methodologies for the determination of far-field (FF) peak gain, equivalent isotropic radiated power (EIRP), and total radiated power (TRP) of active antenna systems (AAS) at ranges shorter than the classical Fraunhofer distance (FHD).
Position, Posture, and Pose Definitions for 3D Body Processing
The interchangeable use of the terms position, posture, and pose causes confusion for 3D body processing (3DBP) applications. This paper reviews current definitions and contextual use of these terms to suggest standardized nomenclature for posture and pose. This paper also reviews and discusses possible standard definitions for location, body regions,…
IEEE 802® Networks for Vertical Applications
This white paper aims to collect and spell out commonalities of IEEE 802 technologies and set the scene in relation to other well-known communication standards of similar behavior.
Asset Identification for Electronic Design IP
The Accellera Security Annotation for Electronic Design Integration (SA-EDI) standard provides a framework for producing security assurance collateral for an IP. The root of the standard and its workflow is the identification of assets for a given IP. Once the assets are identified, the corresponding threats and attack surfaces can…
