A majority of states now restrict teenagers from using a mobile communication device while driving. The effect of these restrictions is largely unknown. In a previous study, we found North Carolina's teenage driver cell phone restriction had little influence on young driver behavior four months after the law took effect (Foss et al., 2009). The goal of the present study was to examine the longe...

Alternative approaches to improve participation in a cohort study of mobile phone users were also compared. METHODS A total of 5,400 subjects were identified from netw...

I am designing and building a microphone array to model techniques used to reduce interference and noise in wireless communication systems. To understand how such problems arise, what an array is, and how it can be used to address current issues in wireless communication, consider the case of cell phone service providers. The number of cell phone users has increased dramatically over the last f...
