The COVID-19 pandemic has created many challenges that need immediate attention. Various epidemiological and deep learning models have been developed to predict the outbreak, but all limitations affect accuracy robustness of predictions. Our method aims at addressing these making earlier more accurate outbreak predictions by (1) using patients' EHR data from different counties states encode local disease status medical resource utilization condition; (2) considering demographic similarity...

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) systems use directional beams to support high-rate data communications. Small misalignment between the transmit and receive (e.g., due mobility) can result in a significant drop of received signal quality, especially line-of-sight communication channels. In this paper, we propose evaluate high-resolution angle tracking strategies for wideband mmWave with mobility.

The 3GPP suggests to combine dual polarized (DP) antenna arrays with the double directional (DD) channel model for downlink estimation. This combination strikes a good balance between high-capacity communications and parsimonious modeling, also brings limited feedback schemes state information within reach---since such can be fully characterized by several key parameters. However, most existing estimation work under DD has not yet considered DP arrays, perhaps because of complex array...
