Author(s)
Anouk Hubrechsen, Vincent T. Neylon, Kate Remley, Rob Jones, Rob Horansky, Laurens A. Bronckers
New protocols related to internet-of-things applications may introduce previously unnoticed measurement effects due to the narrowband nature of these protocols. Such technologies also require less loading to meet the coherence bandwidth conditions, which

Encounter Metrics and Exposure Notification

March 28, 2021
Author(s)
Rene Peralta, Angela Robinson
We discuss the measurement of aggregate levels of encounters in a population, a concept we call encounter metrics. Encounter metrics are designed so that they can be deployed while preserving the privacy of individuals. To this end, encounters are labeled
