Wi-Fi is the most popular technology for the WLAN. However, interference caused by building materials is a common, yet often overlooked, contributor to poor Wi-Fi performance. This interference occurs due to the nature of radio wave propagation and the characteristics of the wireless communication system. Therefore, during the implementation of these networks, one must consider the quasi-static nature of the Wi-Fi signal and its dependence on the influence of various building materials on the propagation of these waves. This paper presents the effects of building materials and structures on indoor environments for Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz. To establish the interdependencies between factors influencing electric field levels, measurements were conducted in an experimental Wi-Fi network at different distances from the access point (AP). The results obtained show that the electric field strength of the Wi-Fi signal decreases depending on the distance, the building materials, and the transmitted frequency. Concrete material had the most significant impact on the strength of the electric field in Wi-Fi, while glass had a relatively minor effect on reducing it. Wi-Fi operates within the radio frequency spectrum, typically utilizing frequencies in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands. Additionally, measurements revealed that Wi-Fi signal penetration is more pronounced at lower frequencies (2.4 GHz) as opposed to the Wi-Fi signal 5 GHz. The findings can be used to address the impact of building materials and structures on indoor radio wave propagation, ultimately ensuring seamless Wi-Fi signal coverage within buildings.展开更多

The combined CO_(2) mineralizationprocess with steel enterprises is a promising route to simultaneously address CO_(2)emissions and SS treatment. Recently, a serial of the relevant work focus on a single type ofsteel slag (SS), and the understanding of CO_(2) absorption by mineralization of various SS isvery lacking.Meanwhile, it is urgent requirement for systematic summary and discussion onhow to make full use of the mineralized products produced after the mineralization of CO_(2)in SS. This review aims to investigate the progress of CO_(2) mineralization using SS, includingthe potential applications of mineralization products, as well as the environmental impactand risk assessment ofmineralization product applications. Currently, the application of SSmineralization products is primarily focused on their use as construction materials with loweconomic value. With usage of the mineralization products for ecological restoration (e.g.sandy soil remediation) was treated as an advanced route, but still remaining challenge infunctional materials preparation, and its technical economy and possible hazards need tobe further explored by long-term experimental tests.展开更多

Carbon foams with uniform pore size are prepared at the foaming pressure of normal pressure using coal tar pitch as raw materials. The physical and chemical performance of high softening point pitch(HSPP) can be regulated by vacuumizing owing to the cooperation of vacuumizing and polycondensation. Results indicate that the optimum softening point and weight ratio of quinoline insoluble are about 292℃ and 65.7%, respectively. And the optimum viscosity of HSPP during the foaming process is distributed in the range of 1000-10000 Pa·s. The resultant carbon foam exhibits excellent performance, such as uniform pore structure, high compressive strength(4.7 MPa), low thermal conductivity(0.07 W·m^(-1) ·K^(-1)), specially, it cannot be fired under the high temperature of 1200 ℃.Thus, this kind of carbon foam is a potential candidate for thermal insulation material applied in energy saving building.展开更多
