The millimeter-wave (mmWave) is expected to deliver a huge bandwidth to address the future demands for higher data rate transmissions. However, one of the major challenges in the mmWave band is the increase in signal loss as the operating frequency increases. This has attracted several research interests both from academia and the industry for indoor and outdoor mmWave operations. This paper focuses on the works that have been carried out in the study of the mmWave channel measurement in indoor environments. A survey of the measurement techniques, prominent path loss models, analysis of path loss and delay spread for mmWave in different indoor environments is presented. This covers the mmWave frequencies from 28 GHz to 100 GHz that have been considered in the last two decades. In addition, the possible future trends for the mmWave indoor propagation studies and measurements have been discussed. These include the critical indoor environment, the roles of artificial intelligence, channel characterization for indoor devices, reconfigurable intelligent surfaces, and mmWave for 6G systems. This survey can help engineers and researchers to plan, design, and optimize reliable 5G wireless indoor networks. It will also motivate the researchers and engineering communities towards finding a better outcome in the future trends of the mmWave indoor wireless network for 6G systems and beyond.

In this era of technology the number of gadgets such as mobilephones, smartwatches, digital glasses and health trackers are used extensively by people in a large scale. The data traffic is abundant as the available radio frequency is limited, so the demand for the wireless network is keep on increasing. In order to meet the future demands there was a development in the optical communication method known as Li-Fi(Light-Fidelity).This will offer more bandwidth than the RF spectrum. They make use of LEDs to transmit the data. The main advantages of the Li-Fi is that there is no need of licensing and has a huge amount of unregulated bandwidth and there is zero electromagnetic interference so that the health hazards are nullified.

Various nanowire or nanotube-based devices have been demonstrated to fulfill the future demands on semiconductor industries and bio/chemical sensors. To fabricate such devices, an electric field-based assembly method has demonstrated a great potential for parallel- and one dimensional assembly of nanowires. In this review paper, the future direction of electric field guided assembly of nanowires is discussed with our recent results. The challenges and opportunities of the assembly are also introduced with the current trends of the nanowire assembly.

Cognitive Femtocells have been standardized suitably to the technical framing of the Fourth cohort compact project to place them inside and outside the cell. Cognitive femtocells expand the coverage area and meet the future demands of higher data rates. However, as a result of the massive deployment of cognitive femtocells, users experience additional delay and unnecessary deliveries. The different hand off mechanisms are 1. Hard handover (break before make) 2. Smooth or soft handover (make-before-break). This can seriously affect the quality of service (QoS) of jam sensitive applications, such as Voice over long-term evolution (VoLTE). The 4GPP LTE-A / LTE-UE wireless networks aim to provide uninterrupted movement and rapid transfer pillar for (Real Time) RT and non-RT application services under the giant vigour. The prediction of mobility is an effective technique to identify a domestic NodeB (eNB / HeNB) evolved in the future and improve the overall service quality of the network and satisfy the end user experience. The different hand over mechanisms are, the first sense of a difficult delivery or transfer is one in which an breathe link should be penetrate ahead a unused one is created. The second new 3G technologies use CDMA where it is possible to have adjoining cells at the same frequency and this opens the odds of boast a transfer or transfer from where it is not required to repair the connection. This is called soft transfer, and is defined as a handover in which a not used tie-in is established before the used one is released. The third type of delivery is called smoother delivery or transfer. In this case, a pristine signal is added or deleted from the spry signal group. It can also happen when a signal is replaced by a burly signal from another sector under the base station. This type of transfer is available within UMTS and CDMA2000. “The cognitive femtocell will do in the delivery mechanism is that it will detect the new channel to transmit the data. With this we can avoid the delivery handover mechanism”. This study investigates the role of mobility prediction in reducing the end-to-end delay of VoLTE and the delay of handover under different user equipment (UE) speeds in mixed femtocell and macrocell environments. We propose a mobility based forecasting scheme based on the user path and measurements of the received signal reference signal and the quality reference signal (RSRP / RSRQ) with mixed RT traffic and not RT and then estimated using a network model new. The survey analysis shows that the proposed scheme will reduce the delivery delay by 35% to keep VoLTE at the end of the delay.

Engineering Education in Kenya remains the major determinant of country’s economic agenda. However, at the moment the education system offers the industry and society unsatisfactory knowledge and services due to mismatch between the supplied educational talents and the ever changing world of engineering. It is imperative that the Kenyan engineering education be designed to tackle challenges emerging in our societies and industries by providing real tangible practical skills. The government on its part should take its share by supporting and giving direction to institution offering such courses. In order to produce graduates with employable skills, institutions of engineering must aim at quality while ensuring massification of students into programs never happens. This paper is thus designed to show challenges facing quality of engineering education offered in Kenya in relation to the society and industrial needs. The paper also highlights the future demands needed on Kenyan engineering education. The write-up is expected to inspire education designers and curriculum developers in preparing programs that provide for the society and industry.
