This paper studies a promising use case of a private 5G network for the sports industry: wearable bodycams and sensors in a football match. This use case requires a reliable and dedicated massive MIMO network to provide uniform coverage with a high capacity in the whole pitch area. The coverage of co-located and distributed (cell-free) massive MIMO, differing in the configuration of base station antenna placement inside the stadium, are evaluated through ray tracing using a 3D stadium model and players' mobility dataset. The results give insight into how distributed antennas inside the stadium should be deployed to enhance the uniform coverage of moving wearable devices. Besides that, the uplink capacity performance and the impact of channel aging on the capacity are also evaluated. The results demonstrate the advantages and disadvantages of different base station antenna distribution strategies in terms of coverage, capacity and channel aging impact.@en

Silicon heterojunction (SHJ) solar cells have reached high power conversion efficiency owing to their effective passivating contact structures. Improvements in the optoelectronic properties of these contacts can enable higher device efficiency, thus further consolidating the commercial potential of SHJ technology. Here we increase the efficiency of back junction SHJ solar cells with improved back contacts consisting of p-type doped nanocrystalline silicon and a transparent conductive oxide with a low sheet resistance. The electrical properties of the hole-selective contact are analysed and compared with a p-type doped amorphous silicon contact. We demonstrate improvement in the charge carrier transport and a low contact resistivity (<5 mΩ cm2). Eventually, we report a series of certified power conversion efficiencies of up to 26.81% and fill factors up to 86.59% on industry-grade silicon wafers (274 cm2, M6 size).@en
