Theoretical debates and literature on E-E efforts in Africa have largely focussed on understanding how and why interventions on HIV and AIDS are effective in influencing behaviour change among target communities. Very few studies have sought to investigate and understand why a substantial number of targeted audiences resist the preferred readings that are encoded into E-E interventions on HIV a...

Nowadays, the main standard around the world for digital terrestrial TV broadcasting is Digital Video Broadcast Terrestrial (DVB-T). Most of DVB-T networks deployments have been designed for fixed rooftop antennas and high transmission capacity, without providing good coverage level for vehicular mobile reception. These networks also make use of either a Single Frequency Network (SFN) or a Mult...

The emergence of Interactive Digital Television (iDTV) opened a set of technological possibilities that go beyond those offered by conventional TV. Among these opportunities we can highlight interactive contents that run together with linear TV program (television service where the viewer has to watch a scheduled TV program at the particular time it is offered and on the particular channel it i...

This paper originates from our desire to identify a limit case of appropriate educational applications of information and communications technology (ICT). Numerous claims have been made about the potential of technology to change the traditionally accepted developmental limits on children’s learning. Claims had also been made in the UK regarding the successful application of video conferencing ...

Broadcasting digital TV is currently an area of intensive development and standardisation activities. Actually, different groups are working on the standardisation problem. In Europe, the digital video broadcasting (DVB) consortium has adopted different standards for terrestrial (DVB-T) fixed reception, handheld (DVB-H) reception, satellite (DVB-S) reception as well as an hybrid reception like ...

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is becoming the chosen modulation technique for wireless communications. OFDM can provide large data rates with sufficient robustness to radio channel impairments. Many research centers in the world have specialized teams working in the optimization of OFDM for countless applications. Here, at the Georgia Institute of Technology, one of such tea...
