The LHCb experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is performing high precision measurements in the flavour sector. An excellent performance of the particle identification (PID) detectors as well as the development of new data taking…
The Pixel Detector of the ATLAS experiment has shown excellent performance during the whole Run-1 of LHC. Taking advantage of the long shutdown, the detector was extracted from the experiment and brought to surface, to equip it with new…
Increasing luminosity at the Fermilab Tevatron collider has led the D0 collaboration to make improvements to its detector beyond those already in place for Run IIa, which began in March 2001. One of the cornerstones of this Run IIb upgrade…
Synchronized Random Access Channel (RACH) attempts by Internet of Things (IoT) devices could result in Radio Access Network (RAN) overload in LTE-A. 3GPP adopted Barring Bitmap Enabled-Extended Access Barring (EAB-BB) mechanism that…
The LHC is expected to increase its center-of-mass energy from 13 TeV to 14 TeV for Run 3 scheduled from 2022 to 2024. After Run 3, upgrades for the High-Luminosity-LHC (HL-LHC) programme are planned and the operation will start in 2027,…
