Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource Text Description An account of the resource Using a systems framework, this textbook provides a clear and comprehensive introduction to the performance, analysis, and design of radio systems for students and practicing engineers. Presented within a consistent framework, the first part of the book describes the fundamentals of the subject: propagation, noise, antennas, and modulation. The analysis and design of radios, including RF circuit design and signal processing, is covered in the second half of the book. Key features Numerous examples within the text involve realistic analysis and design activities and emphasize how practical experiences may differ from theory or taught procedures. RF circuit design and analysis is presented with minimal involvement of Smith charts, enabling students to more readily grasp the fundamentals. Both traditional and software-defined/direct sampling technologies are described with the pros and cons of each strategy explained.

Title A name given to the resource Re-branding and performance at Ghana oil company limited: an empirical study Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource George K Amoako, Bernard K Okpattah, Daniel Gameti, Mayqueen Attatsitsey Description An account of the resource Attempts by some state-owned enterprises (SOEs) to pursue rigorous branding and rebranding strategies have been met with disdain, particularly in Ghana where stakeholders and other commentators question the rationale for such strategies; labelling them as needless and wasteful due to the high associated financial implications. Yet, rebranding is necessary to offer differentiated products and services that outperform those of competitors. Using the 2010-2012 re-branding exercise undertaken by Ghana Oil Company (GOIL) – a state-owned oil marketing company in the petroleum downstream sector of Ghana as a case illustration, the paper evaluates the impacts of rebranding on firm performance through investment in employees and brand equity. The paper discusses and concludes with highlights of the specific contribution of rebranding in state-owned enterprises and make appropriate … Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Adonis & Abbey Publishers Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2017 Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived https://scholar.google.com/citations?view_op=view_citation&hl=en&user=hXmr_bYAAAAJ&cstart=20&pagesize=80&citation_for_view=hXmr_bYAAAAJ:AFXcoJnoRH0C Language A language of the resource English https://www.repository.gctu.edu.gh/files/original/387e0024a390e88329f612064c84d52c.pdf af1d029afcfb40ff3b9f46be73b45000 Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Title A name given to the resource Re-conceptualizing volunteer tourism organizations roles: A host perspective Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Esi Akyere Mensah, Elizabeth Agyeiwaah, Felix Elvis Otoo Description An account of the resource While volunteer tourism organizations (VTOs) remain important intermediaries in the practice of volunteer tourism, questions remain on the role they play in serving the interests of host communities. This paper explores the role(s) of VTOs in a rural volunteer tourism hub in Ghana from a host community perspective using a phenomenological inquiry. An integrated framework of Critical/Institutional Analysis and Development (C/IAD) was used to examine host community experience with VTOs' role. Data was collected through focus group discussion and in-depth interviews with 43 residents of Asebu - Ghana. The study revealed that while VTOs act as facilitators and interpreters of local culture, issues of over-regulation and protectionism isolate guests from the host as well as rob some host of any meaningful socio-economic benefits and interactions.

Title A name given to the resource Re-engineering Mutual Funds Performance in Sub-Saharan Africa: Evidence from the Ghana Stock Exchange Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Michael Owusu Akomeah, YuSheng Kong, Wilfred Kwaku Drah, Basil Kusi3 Stephen Owusu Afriyie Description An account of the resource The study presents an examination of mutual funds average returns relative to the benchmark in Ghana using Sharpe and Treynor’s index for a sample of ten Ghanaian Mutual Funds selected on the basis of consecutive data availability during the period of 1st January 2010 to 31st December, 2014. The results revealed that 80% of the Mutual Funds recorded high raw returns with a strong correlation coefficient of+ 0.6089 between the raw returns and total risk. It was also found that the average Sharpe index for all the Mutual Funds was 1.351 outperforming the benchmark index of 0.300 and more so the average Treynor index for all the Mutual Funds was 12.68 beating the benchmark index of 9.59. Moreover 80% of the Mutual Funds were highly diversified with an average adjusted R-square of 59.88%. The analysis concluded that, the money market funds had a superior performance than the balanced and equity funds under all the three performance evaluation techniques.

Title A name given to the resource Re-Imagining Community-Based Tourism in Rural Africa Through Networks and Management Innovation Description An account of the resource While community-based natural resource management appears common in Africa, management innovation (MI) in community-based tourism (CBT) on the continent has received limited attention. This chapter contributes to the innovative management of CBT promoted through recruiting actors that might seem remote ordinarily in tourism governance. We noted complexities in managing CBTs with multi-actors and diverse interests. Using actor network theory (ANT) and MI, we argue that CBT can be managed innovatively by recruiting diverse transnational, national and local actors, institutions, and discourses. It entails a complex and interactive engagement with actors that help in marketing, promoting, and tourism infrastructure development. MI in CBT is analysed within a network perspective of enrolling actors into a tourism system to pursue communal and corporate agenda. And lessons from CBTs in Ghana and South Africa highlight that (un)successful CBT is contingent on effective recruiting and enrolling of actors to promote resilient and inclusive tourism.
