Guiding Customs Administrations Towards Successful E-Commerce Import Supervision: Using a Mixed-Method Approach to Identify and Evaluate Supervisory Actions in Preparation of the Reformed Union Customs Code

This study examines the challenges faced by the Customs Administration of the Netherlands in supervising cross-border e-commerce imports under the current European customs legislation, the Union Customs Code (UCC). Through a mixed-method approach, including qualitative interviews, document analysis, and simulation modelling, the study identifies...

Design of a Wideband Phased Patch Antenna Array

The increasing number of drones forms a more significant problem every year. Negative impact becomes more apparent during daily life as, for example, airport operations are shut down due to unauthorized users of drones. This report focuses on designing a new wideband antenna array as part of an integrated radar system to detect small objects,...

Implementation of sensorless field oriented motor control in a solar car

In this thesis the implementation of Field Oriented Control in the car of the NUON Solar Team will be discussed. The team decided to do research into the possibilities of a custom motor controller, and this thesis covers the beginning of that process. First a comparison between different control methods is made, and sensorless FOC is decided as...

A Mathematical Model for Dynamic Channel Selection in the Digital European Cordless Telecommunications standard

Dynamic Channel Selection is a mechanism for selecting communication channels based on the actual, measured, signal quality. It is used in wireless communication systems to improve the adaptability to traffic intensity fluctuations, resulting from small cell sizes. The Digital European Cordless Telecommunications (DECT) standard Dynamic Channel...

The Effect Of Error Correcting Coding On Indoor Wireless Communications Systems In The 20 - 60 GHz Region

As a follow-up of the literature study ’An Overview Of Indoor Wireless Communications Systems In Ilie 20 - 60 GHz Region’, published by B.J. Bout jand W.A. Schouten in December 1992, a further study has been performed to investigate the effect of Forward Error Correcting Coding on Indoor Wireless Communications Systems. This has been done by...
