Despite the huge success of cellular networks and the Long Term Evolution (LTE), there are challenges ahead. The performance requirements of LTE yield massive signaling traffic, imposing further demands on already strained networks [36]. In an effort to manage the growing volume of data in cellular networks, there has been an increasing interest in deploying relays, distributed antennas, and smallcell access points (e.g., pico- and femtocells) in residential areas, subways and offices.
Swedish higher education offers bachelor’s and master’s programmes, designed to provide students with academic knowledge, critical thinking skills, and practical experience.
Bachelor’s ProgrammesA bachelor’s degree (180 ECTS, 3 years) provides foundational knowledge in a specific field. Some programmes lead to professional degrees, such as in engineering or teaching, which may have additional requirements.

Often when radical technological development happens, I gaze at it from a distance and try to understand it's impact on my life. This time I got to be a part of the revolution. I’m talking about the eye-tracking revolution, a journey that has been amazing to be a part of during the past 10 years. A journey that has just started.
