In the era of wireless communication, WiFi becomes an indispensable accessory to most of us. People use WIFI to interact with the wireless Internet, perform commercial and financial transactions, or conducting recreational activities, etc.Though it offers a more convenient life to people, the strong Electromagnetic waves(EMW) resulted from it endangers human health, that has already turned out to be the primary study for medical science. Furthermore, EMW also attracts concern and panic of the inhabitants living in the surroundings which is filled with high-frequency and low-frequency EMwave. EMW today comes from broadcast towers, the system of the wireless communication, GPS, TVs and defense satellites mostly. Enjoying the convenience resulted from communication technology, people nowadays should also concern about whether EM wave would damage people’s health at the same time. Based on the perspective of cognitive neuroscience, this study mainly focuses on how EM wave produced from WiFi affects subject’s brainwaves under a specific physiological situation. The researcher observes different changing of brainwave when human beings expose in various strength of EM wave, and analyses the affection of EMW toward subject’s brainwaves.

Instructional/Communication Technology has come to mean, in a narrowsense, media hardware or a set of tools enabling human beings toovercome their physical limitations. Etymologically, it means one or moretechniques, both concrete and abstract, that help human beings solveproblems. By extension, instructional technology (IT) means all tools atour disposal for facilitating learning. Tickton (1971) defines the purporeof IT as making "education more productive and more individual, to giveinstruction a more scientific base, and to make instruction more powerful,learning more immediate, and access more equal." While the technologyitself might be neutral as a medium and as a means of instructional communication,it is the natw of its use, in terms of timely and appropriatemessages, that is the key to understanding its consequences. It is this finalfactor upon which society needs to focus.The tecent combination of computer, video, fiber optics, satellite television,and other state-of-the-art technologies has enabled a small groupto control the lives of billions. Instructional technology has also Meritedits own share of this instantaneous global power. As a result traditionalboundaries between IT and mass media communication have blurred somuch that IT sounds like a misnomer.It has now become a platitude to say that the nation that controlledthe sealanes in the nineteenth century, or that controlled the airways inthe twentieth century, controlled the whole world. In the twenty-first century,it appears that whoever controls the airwaves will control the worldand whatever is beyond it. Thus the most explosive confluence of ...

A smart helmet is a wearable device that has attracted attention in various fields, especially in applied sciences, where extensive studies have been conducted in the past decade. In this study, the current status and trends of smart helmet research were systematically reviewed. Five research questions were set to investigate the research status of smart helmets according to the year and application field, as well as the trend of smart helmet development in terms of types of sensors, microcontrollers, and wireless communication technology. A total of 103 academic research articles published in the past 11 years (2009–2020) were analyzed to address the research questions. The results showed that the number of smart helmet applications reported in literature has been increasing rapidly since 2018. The applications have focused mostly on ensuring the safety of motorcyclists. A single-board-based modular concept unit, such as the Arduino board, and sensor for monitoring human health have been used the most for developing smart helmets. Approximately 85% of smart helmets have been developed to date using wireless communication technology to transmit data obtained from smart helmets to other smart devices or cloud servers.

In this paper, we use the hydrodynamic approach to study the stimulated scattering of high-frequency electromagnetic waves by a low-frequency electrostatic perturbation that is either an upper- or lower-hybrid wave in a two-electron-temperature plasma. Considering the four-wave interaction between a strong high-frequency pump and the low-frequency electrostatic perturbation (LHW or UHW), we obtain the dispersion relation for the scattered wave, which is then solved to obtain an explicit expression for the growth rate of the coupled modes. For a typical Q-machine plasma, results show that in both cases the growth rate increases with noh/noc. This is in contrast with the results of Guha & Asthana (1989), who predicted that, for scattering by a UHW perturbation, the growth rate should decrease with increasing noh/noc.

Because of rapid development of wireless communication technology, there is an increasing adoption of mobile advertising, such as location based advertising (LBA). To what extent can LBA improve advertising effectiveness is an important topic in the field of wireless communication technology research. Most researches quantify long term impacts of advertisings by VAR (Vector Autoregressive) model. However, compared to VAR model, VECM (Vector Error Correction Model) is a better method in that it allows one to estimate both a long-term equilibrium relationship and a short-term dynamic error correction process. In this study, we employ VECM to explore LBA’s (Location Based Advertising) and PUA’s (Pop-up Advertising) sales impact in both short and long terms. The developed VECM reveals that LBA’s sales impact is about more than2 times as big as PUA’s in short dynamic term and nearly 6 times bigger than PUA’s in long equilibrium term. These findings add to advertising and VECM literatures. These results can give managers more confident to apply wireless communication technology to advertising.
