在全球各国家和地区电信监管部门、运营商与设备制造企业的共同推动下，LTE的产业化和商用化发展迅猛。截至2013年12月，全球已部署LTE商用网络251个，143个国家的499个运营商参与投资LTE产业。到2013年底，全球预计有260张LTE网络实现商用。同时，伴随着无线频谱资源的日益紧缺，TDD技术的优势与价值逐步凸显。目前，全球共有25张商用TD-LTE网络投入建设，中国也已发放TD-LTE运营牌照。而作为至关重要的产业环节，TD-LTE芯片及终端的发展水平将直接决定产业链的商用成熟度。

工信部网站5月9日报道，为贯彻落实党的十八届三中全会关于全面深化改革、完善主要由市场决定价格的机制精神，决定放开各类电信业务资费。主要有以下五方面： 一、所有电信业务资费均实行市场调节价。电信企业可以根据市场情况和用户需求制定电信业务资费方案，自主确定具体资费结构、资费标准及计费方式。 二、电信企业自主制定电信业务资费方案时，应当遵循合法、公平、诚信原则，考虑用户的不同需求，提供业务打包等多种资费方案供用户选择。 三、电信企业应进一步提高资费透明度，建立资费方案公示制度，通过营业厅、代理代办点、网站等方式公布所有面向公众市场的在售资费方案。 四、电信企业与用户签订的协议中应包含资费标准、计费方式、对应服务和适用期限等内容。 五、电信企业要严格执行有关政策，履行社会责任，建立健全电信资费内部管理制度，自觉规范经营行为，努力降低经营成本，为用户提供更优质、更低廉、更透明的电信服务。

2014年1季度，世界经济温和复苏，发达国家经济复苏出现分化迹象，而新兴市场国家经济面临不同程度的下行压力。从国际经济形势来看，美国经济受天气影响，GDP增速低于预期；欧元区在经历了债务危机的打击之后正在慢慢恢复元气；而日本经济则受制于私人部门消费增长没能达到预期和出口不振的影响，增速明显低于预期。从国内形势来看，中国经济开局平稳，总体良好。1季度国内生产总值128213亿元，按可比价格计算，同比增长7.4%，比去年同期和全年均回落0.3个百分点。经济增速的回落，也使得电信业务收入受到了一定程度的影响，2014年1季度，电信业务收入实现2908.3亿元，同比增长6.5%，增速较上年回落2.6个百分点。

当前，全球通信设备制造业正处在重大变革 的关键节点。一方面，由于全球经济复苏困难，加之电信运营业增长乏力，主要通信设备企业均出现利润下滑与增长放缓局面，产业增长正陷入新一轮低潮，未来增长空间受限。另一方面，伴随产业融合发展，以虚拟化为代表IT技术理念正深刻融入网络设备各领域，从产品架构、制造模式、产业生态等各方面对通信设备产业带来重大影响

During Phases III and IV of this project it was determined that the physical attributes of the prototypes developed during the earlier work was inappropriate for bridge deck installations. Mn/DOT engineers required that they be planar and not require drainage through the deck. As RWIS platforms had been widely deployed on decks throughout the state, we decided to adhere to the RWIS geometric format. This necessitated a significant re-engineering of the sensor hardware before installation and testing at remote bridge sites could proceed. To that end extensive development of a robust sensor meeting these requirements was developed and tested without compromise to the earlier performance results. In large part the maintenance of performance was achieved through a significant modification of the software to include Wavelet analysis of the raw data in the determination of surface state of the sensor platform (ice vs air vs water vs electrolyte present on the sensing electrode structure). The combined regression results for raw TDR responses treated by three analysis procedures are shown to give rise to very reliable results. Unfortunately, remote field testing of sensors installed on bridge decks was not accomplished.

The Improved Sensor Integration (ISI) project is an effort to cross- cue various force protection and persistent surveillance systems from unattended ground sensor systems and other data sources. The ISI systems communicate primarily through cursor on target messages. The Terra Harvest controller architecture was adopted to integrate the Applied Research Associates Expendable Unattended Ground Sensor (EUGS) system into the ISI project and provides a potential entry point for other types of unattended sensors. This report describes the architecture used to integrate EUGS into the ISI system by way of Terra Harvest and Cursor on Target, and discusses some of the issues and solutions that were identified during the integration.

This report details the current progress in the design, implementation, and validation of the signal conditioning circuitry used in a measurement instrumentation system. The purpose of this text is to document the current progress of a particular design in signal conditioning circuitry in an instrumentation system. The input of the signal conditioning circuitry comes from a piezoresistive transducer and the output will be fed to a 250 ksps, 12-bit analog-to-digital converter (ADC) with an input range of 0-5 V. It is assumed that the maximum differential voltage amplitude input from the sensor is 20 mV with an unknown, but presumably high, sensor bandwidth. This text focuses on a specific design; however, the theory is presented in such a way that this text can be used as a basis for future designs.

Cyanide is a deadly poison which may be ingested or inhaled and can cause severe incapacitation or death. The diagnosis of cyanide exposure is critical to speed treatment and reduce harm. The development of a diagnostic sensor device and the identification and analysis of novel biomarkers of cyanide exposure are the major objectives of this research. Since the onset of toxic outcome from cyanide exposure is very fast, a rapid and portable sensor for the detection of cyanide exposure was developed and tested. The sensor utilized a cyanide-selective fluorescent reaction as the core chemical reaction with micro-diffusion sample preparation (previously reported). Second- and third-generation cyanide sensors were developed and the latest version is currently undergoing laboratory testing. Multiple novel markers of cyanide exposure were also identified as having potential advantages to cyanide and thiocyanate, and methods of analysis for these markers were developed or are in the process of being developed. Specifically, 2-amino-2-thiozoline-4-carboxylic acid (ATCA), alpha-ketoglutarate, and a cyanide-glutathione adduct were investigated. Toxicokinetic models were obtained through analysis of the plasma concentrations of ATCA, cyanide, and thiocyanate, analyzed from cyanide-exposed rats (previously reported), rabbits (reported in 2012), and swine, to assess the utility of ATCA as a bio-marker for cyanide exposure.
