UK's first jet to jet teaming between aircraft and drone

UK's first jet to jet teaming between aircraft and drone | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it

The Banshee was equipped with QinetiQ’s Airborne Command and Control for Swarm Interoperable Missions (ACCSIOM) technology, which allows the drone to communicate with the crewed aircraft using the same messaging format as the standard NATO Link 16 datalink. Instrumental to the deployment of autonomous air platforms, the technology provides an airborne gateway which can receive and translate both long range and short range communications between drones while in-built safety systems can override the autonomy to ensure the drone stays at all times within a safe operating area.

Throughput and Cost-Effectiveness of Vehicular Mesh Networks for Internet Access

Throughput and Cost-Effectiveness of Vehicular Mesh Networks for Internet Access | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it

We show that achievable throughput remains close
to its maximum even for high levels of offered load per vehicle or
high density of vehicles, so congestion control mechanisms in
mesh networks can effectively prevent throughput from
collapsing as these factors increase over time. This achievable
throughput can be increased with the deployment of additional
roadside infrastructure that serves as a gateway to the Internet,
although the throughput gain per gateway decreases as more are
added. Deploying these gateways is cost-effective, i.e. economic
benefits of the resulting throughput exceed costs of
infrastructure, when vehicle density is sufficiently high. We also
find that use of RTS/CTS decreases achievable throughput in this
scenario.

Dans quels pays a-t-on le plus de données mobiles ? | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it

Avec le développement des réseaux mobiles à très haut débit, le smartphone est devenu le premier support pour surfer sur le Web. En 2022, selon les chiffres de StatCounter, les appareils mobiles (à l'exclusion des tablettes) représentaient plus de 55 % du trafic Internet mondial - contre environ le tiers en 2015. Comme le rapporte l'OCDE, l'utilisation des données mobiles par abonnement dans les 35 pays membres de l'organisation a bondi de 79 % sur la période 2018-2021. Le volume données consommées mensuellement s'élève en moyenne à 8,4 Go par abonnement, mais varie fortement selon les pays. C'est la Finlande qui arrive en tête, avec une consommation d'environ 37 Go par mois et par abonnement.

10 milliards d'euros d'aides sociales gâchées par le non recours | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it

il existe aujourd’hui un phénomène nuisible à la bonne marche de la solidarité nationale : le non-recours aux droits. Bien qu’il soit difficile de le mesurer précisément, sachez qu’en France certaines prestations majeures frisent le taux de 40% de personnes qui ne la perçoivent pas alors qu’elles y sont éligibles. Plusieurs facteurs expliquent ce chiffre si élevé, mais à l’évidence, les personnes qui ne recourent pas à leurs droits manquent d’informations et sont découragées par les démarches administratives trop complexes.

The software-defined vehicle (SDV) and AI cars market is set to be worth over US$700 billion by 2034, representing around 20% of the global car market, according to IDTechEx’s report ‘Software-Defined Vehicles, Connected Cars and AI in Cars 2024-2034. That sum can be sourced from several areas, such as monthly connectivity subscriptions, commission from in-vehicle payments, and one-time software upgrades. Thanks to improvements in-car connectivity, onboard hardware capabilities, and a global shift in consumer preferences toward subscription models, the software-defined vehicle market is set to grow at compound annual rate of 34% between 2023 and 2034

Use of mobile mesh networks for inter-vehicular communication

Use of mobile mesh networks for inter-vehicular communication | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it

High-speed wireless computing networks are now economically feasible for home users, via 802.11b wireless protocols and their associated hardware. Such centralized "point-to-multipoint" installations typically allow a range of about 100 meters from the central access point. It is possible to use the same network protocols and hardware to construct a "wireless mesh" or "multipoint-to-multipoint" network in which any connected node can communicate directly or indirectly with any other connected node. The research project described in this article applies wireless mesh networking to inter-vehicular communication.

Adaptive HELLO Protocol For Vehicular Networks

Adaptive HELLO Protocol For Vehicular Networks | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it

The update of car Firmware Over The Air (FOTA) is a growing trend that transforms software‑related recalls into mere updates, thus considerably reducing the cost of recalls for car manufacturers, while increasing driver safety in quasi‑real‑time. However, the number and data volume of FOTA updates is expected to increase exponentially with the steep increase in the number of processors per vehicle, combined with the increase in the number of connected and electric vehicles that is projected to be 69 million new connected vehicles in Europe by 2025. Multiplied by the increasing cost of mobile data subscriptions, this leads to the paradox that by 2030 or even before that, it may be more costly to update vehicles than to move them if FOTA is only relying on mobile network communication (be it LTE/4G or 5G).

WiFi Mesh vs. WiFi repeater: Which works better in eliminating dead spots at home?

WiFi Mesh vs. WiFi repeater: Which works better in eliminating dead spots at home? | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it

A WiFi Mesh works like a second router, creating another access point within the original WiFi network. Thus, a set of multiple mesh devices or a WiFi Mesh System works like one single network connection – enabling the same speed and quality of connection in areas installed with the devices. And since a mesh node already widens the coverage of the already-existing WiFi network, you don’t need to manually connect your device to it. In general, the more WiFi Mesh devices installed inside your home, the more stable your connection would be, even in areas that used to be dead spots.

Homo Oeconomicus at the Café: A Field Experiment on 'Suspended Coffee'

Homo Oeconomicus at the Café: A Field Experiment on 'Suspended Coffee' | #dot:dot, the community internet | Scoop.it
Individuals engage in daily behaviours that are often at issue with self-interest and rationality. This paper supports the thesis of inadequacy of the homo oeconomicus model, providing results of a field experiment conducted in the city of Naples (Italy) on the practice of “suspended coffee” (caffè sospeso). The suspended coffee tradition was initially launched in Naples and consists in people purchasing two coffees, one to drink on the spot and one to be left “suspended” for someone else to drink for free. A convenience sample of café clients completed a self-administered questionnaire. Their answers were examined in relation to the declared choice and consequent purchase of a suspended coffee.
