Regulatory regimes for lawyers ethics in Japan and China: a comparative study

China and Japan are the two largest economies in Asia, and both countries are similar in their adoption of a civil law system. This article undertakes a comparative study of the regulatory frameworks for lawyers’ ethics in the two countries. This article first considers the development of legal profession, particularly their rapid growth in the past decade. It then analyses and compares the regulatory regimes on lawyers’ ethics in both countries, with reference to six ‘professional virtues’ of competence, independence, loyalty, confidentiality, responsibility and honourable conduct. It reveals that Japan adopts a model of self-regulation, while China implements a ‘hybrid’ mode, namely, both state and self-regulation. It also argues that China is improving in its growing recognition of such virtues as ‘competence’, and that it has room for improvement in such virtues as ‘independence’, ‘confidentiality’ and ‘honourable conduct.’published_or_final_versio

Impacts of multipath fading on the timing synchronization of IEEE 802.11a wireless LANs

The timing-synchronization performance of IEEE 802.11a wireless LANs on multipath Rician fading channels is investigated. Simulation results yield the following observations. A higher Rician factor gives a better performance. At low signal-to-noise conditions, the multipath-diversity gain enables an improvement in the synchronization performance but at high signal-to-noise conditions, irreducible probabilities of synchronization failure, which cannot be reduced even if the signal power is increased, occur. A more dispersive channel gives a poorer synchronization performance, and the performance is poor for Rayleigh fading environments.published_or_final_versio
