Examination Rules:

Plagiarism of any kind will result in loss of marks and disciplinary action. Plagiarism includes:

· Copying work form another assessment you already submitted

· Paying someone to do the work

· Asking someone else to help write your work

· Submitting any work that is not entirely, or in part, not your effort.

Please be aware that all assessments are scanned by the Institute’s system for plagiarised work, “Urkund” and these are very accurate in detecting material copied from other sources.

A with all supplemental exams, no further attempts are allowed, and no extensions are permitted.

Submission via Brightspace before the Deadline

Deadlines are strictly adhered to, no exceptions

Question 1 of 1 [100 Marks]

1. Read the accompanying article in the Brightspace folder entitled “GSA Report - The Road to 5G.pdf”

2. Answer all parts of the questions below

3. Answer only with reference to the article you have read “GSA Report - The Road to 5G.pdf” and your class notes only (see “Research Requirements” section below)

ANSWERING: YOU MUST REFERENCE THE ARTICLE (GSA Report - The Road to 5G.pdf)

· You must use reference (cite the research) in your answer that comprises only of the following two sources:

o The Article you have read (the page)

o The class notes (the slide pack and the slide number)

· Failure to reference where in the article you are citing will mean a substantial loss of marks.

· You do not need or should you include any other references in your answer outside the article and the class notes.

· You must never copy and paste any material from the article or any other source (see below for advice on paraphrasing)

An example of how your might reference both the class notes and the article (“GSA Report - The Road to 5G.pdf”) in your answer is as follows:

To reduce latency of communications for devices, the speed of digital processing needs to increase in 5G, while at the same time network designers need to reduce the distance that information must travel through the network (GSA Report Article Page 22). Latency is the delay or time it takes for data to reach its end destination, and a smaller latency is important for real-time critical data (Class Notes “Eng Sem I #12 Telecommunications Introduction”, Slide #96).

Submission Format:

· Word count is 1,600, with a plus/minus 10% allowance – not including title page, contents page, diagrams, tables, or references. Marks are deducted for wordcounts outside this range.

· Your submission should be submitted in a Report Style (not an essay style) with a contents section and proper use of headings.

· Submission without out references will result in loss of marks.

· Your assessment should contain a title page, and contents (not included as part of the word count) i.e. submitted using the standard TU Dublin assessment template and TU Dublin style guide. Failure to do so will result in a loss of marks.

Avoiding Plagiarism:

· You should never copy and paste from any source:

o Your work is analysed by a plagiarism detector, they are very accurate pieces of software with literally millions of website and articles in their databases to check against your work.

o If you cut and paste from the article or another source you will have plagiarised and this may result in a zero grade, as plagiarism of any kind will is never allowed in submissions.

o However, you have to write what other people are saying on the subject, so how you do this if you paraphrase what you have sourced for your research,

o This means you effectively rewrite what they are saying in your own words.

o Everything you paraphrase should have at least one reference, and in some cases at least two reference (as in the example above)

· All work must be original. Any plagiarism which is confirmed will result in loss of marks and disciplinary actions. Please remember, all assignments are tested by the University’s system for plagiarism. Plagiarism includes:

· Copying work from another assessment you already submitted

· Paying someone to do the work

· Asking someone else to help write your work

· Submitting any work that is not entirely, or in part not your effort

Your submission should include a signed declaration that states you understand plagiarism is not acceptable and that you declare your work is free of plagiarism.
