IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits 53, #5 (2018): pp. These arrays are fed through the back side of the board using through-hole vias, which if properly constructed, can pass mmWave signals to a load. In other words, the chips each cover a single 4x4 array (4 Rx and 4 Tx). This array is feed with a group of transceivers on the back side of the board, where the chips form a pair of 2x2 transceiver arrays. The image below shows an example MIMO antenna concept with a 4x8 antenna arrays. IEEE, 2018.Įxample MIMO Array With Flip Chip Transceivers "An eight-port dual-band antenna array for 5G smartphone applications." In 2018 Cross Strait Quad-Regional Radio Science and Wireless Technology Conference (CSQRWC), pp. "A low-profile and high-isolated MIMO antenna for 5G mobile terminal." Micromachines 11, #4 (2020): 360. Take a look at the articles below for some example MIMO antenna designs: Later research focused on the use of MIMO in handsets with 8 antennas, which may have multiple resonant frequencies to enable wideband operation. ![]() In this example, 4 channels are being used to transmit and receive data. For example, the 4x4 cellular MIMO array shown below (4 Tx and Rx antennas) was used in the iPhone back in late 2018. Most MIMO-based systems (including smartphones) include an antenna array that provides highly directional emission over multiple channels. This effectively increases throughput without taking up additional frequency bands. When two MIMO-capable devices are connected, multiple data streams can be transferred between them in parallel within the same channel. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) supports the use of multiple data streams being sent between a transmitting device and a receiving device. The other part of this is a layout task in order to support multiple antennas required in MIMO. Part of this is a component selection task as you need to select a set of baseband transceiver/conversion ICs to support MIMO. If you’re designing RF products to support telecom or networking infrastructure, then there’s a chance you’ll need to design your product to support MIMO. Recently, the drastic increase in wireless services direct to consumers and in offices has been enabled by MIMO. MIMO can be traced all the way back to research papers from the 1970s, and significant development was required before the technology could be commercialized. Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) has become a more popular term now that 5G is becoming more publicized, but this term and the technology have been around for awhile. ![]() ![]() ![]()

Check out our blog posts highlighting each week of the program. In the past two summers of the program, 90 learners joined us for connection and community. In the past, learners have proposed things like utilizing compost bins and reusable utensils in schools, fundraisers for tuition assistance, and creating student clubs to explore gender inequality. They’ll spend time exploring several global issues, including climate justice, quality education, poverty, and more, and will work together in groups to find local solutions. Learners in the program will also get a deeper look at some real-world issues through a community design project. They will also travel to local cultural, career, and community sites like SLB Radio Productions, Carnegie Science Center, Moonshot Museum, Astrobotic Technology, and Penn State Commonwealth campuses.

It’s also the game’s most thought-out component, one that ramps up excitement and difficulty throughout. If you're only here for the combat, you'll have a good time.Įvil West’s redeeming quality – and the one thing that will make or break it for a lot of players – is combat. But those games allow you to “fail” they let you chase dead ends and end up somewhere you can’t access yet because you don’t have a certain upgrade.Įvil West railroads you too much for it to feel anything but a video game one hiding an archaic core underneath its modern visuals. Doom 2016 and its sequel share a similar approach to their level design you know when you’re going to be in a fight and when you’ll be left to your own devices. I don’t necessarily find it off-putting that Evil West’s levels are linear, it’s the way you’re allowed/not allowed to move through them that’s puzzling. It’s like the game doesn’t want you to spend too long poking around. Whether that’s due to a bug, or whether it’s the game’s intended behaviour makes going through missions frustrating. The same spot that let you mantle one way can decide you can’t mantle the other. I typically like to exhaust all possible routes in a level before heading to the main objective, but you rarely know which is which in Evil West. Worse still, the game doesn’t make clear which areas lock you in and which let you backtrack. With the exception of one mission, you’re never given freedom in how you want to explore the world. If they decide that you can airily hop between rocks to reach a dangling chain, your character will play the canned animation that does that. Like a game from the Xbox 360 generation, designers expect you to move around those levels in a specific way: if they say you can’t step over this log, you won’t be able to. ![]() Though level layouts aren’t always predictable, how you navigate through them is. When you finish watching a cutscene, you’re thrown into restrictive levels made up of clear encounter areas, quiet zones where you’re left to look for collectibles, and the occasional puzzle standing between you and getting to either of those two areas. This is where Evil West at its best, and worst. If you’re okay with vampires existing, you’re probably going to be fine with electrical-infused gauntlets and railgun upgrades for your lever-action rifle.Įvil West plays really well in short sessions, but bigger problems arise the longer you play it. It also allows for a lot of liberty with the technology, in-world. That setup only really exists as a justification for introducing a range of monsters that you get to fight using era-appropriate weapons – it could have just easily been zombies or aliens. It’s a silly game, and it knows it, often revelling in its love for man-on-monster violence. Set in an alternate version of America’s wild west frontier lands, the story follows a secretive vampire-hunting order that has been dealing with an evolving threat for generations, while the government covers up their discoveries as viral outbreaks. Evil West is an old-school action game that blends melee combat with firearms a hybrid you don’t often see in the modern era. I thought about that interview as I played Evil West, the new game from the shooter masters at Polish studio, Flying Wild Hog. Their impassionate pleadings question the need for violence, but they’re met with a ridiculing, frustrated: “Because it’s so much fun, Jan. There’s an early 2000s interview with director Quentin Tarantino in which a conservative pundit berates him about the level of gruesome violence in his movies. ![]() ![]() This "notes reminder with alarm" setup a reminder to alert you when it is time to do something.

While the main loop lasts only 10 minutes in real time, the game is expected to take a player between 6 and 8 hours to complete. This gameplay loop has been compared to The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask. The husband is the only character that retains knowledge of the previous cycles – such as knowing about the impending arrest – and this information can be used to perform other actions in future cycles. However, the player is not given any exact information of what this goal is, leaving it up to them to explore how to resolve the situation. If the husband dies or leaves the apartment, time is reset. Time resets at the point where the husband enters the apartment, with the player now free to attempt to work out why the cop suspects the wife of murder, how to prevent her arrest, or several other possible actions in order to find a way to end the loop. A self-identified police officer (voiced by Willem Dafoe) arrives at the apartment and accuses the wife of murdering her father several years ago, and in trying to arrest her knocks out the husband and kills the wife and her unborn child. Without taking certain actions, over the course of 12 minutes, the husband learns his wife is pregnant. The player controls the husband during these events in the style of a point-and-click adventure game, where he is free to do various actions. Twelve Minutes is played from a top-down perspective and is set in an apartment suite shared by a husband and wife (voiced by James McAvoy and Daisy Ridley, respectively) which includes the main living and kitchen area, their bedroom, a bathroom, and a closet.
