Opportunistic spectrum access (OSA) allows unlicensed users to share licensed spectrum in space and time with no or little interference to primary users, with bring new research challenges in MAC design. We propose a cognitive MAC protocol using statistical channel information and selecting appropriate idle channel for transmission. The protocol based on the CSMA/CA, exploits statistics of spectrum usage for decision making on channel access. Idle channel availability, spectrum hole sufficiency and available channel condition will be included in algorithm statistical information. The model include the control channel and data channel, the transmitter negotiates with receiver on transmission parameters through control channel, statistical decision results (successful rate of transmission) from exchanged transmission parameters of control channel should pass the threshold and decide the data transmission with spectrum hole on data channel. The proposed protocol's simulation will show that proposed protocol does improve the throughput performance via traditional opportunistic spectrum access MAC protocol.

This paper is concerned with the use of a selforganizing map (SOM) to estimate the desired channel states of an unknown digital communication channel for blind equalization. The modification of SOM is accomplished by using the Bayesian likelihood fitness function and the relation between the desired channel states and channel output states. At the end of each clustering epoch, a set of estimated clusters for an unknown channel is chosen as a set of pre-defined desired channel states, and used to extract the channel output states. Next, all of the possible desired channel states are constructed by considering the combinations of extracted channel output states, and a set of the desired states characterized by the maximal value of the Bayesian fitness is subsequently selected for the next SOM clustering epoch. This modification of SOM makes it possible to search the optimal desired channel states of an unknown channel. In simulations, binary signals are generated at random with Gaussian noise, and both linear and nonlinear channels are evaluated. The performance of the proposed method is compared with those of the "conventional" SOM and an existing hybrid genetic algorithm. Relatively high accuracy and fast search speed have been achieved by using the proposed method.

A microchannel PCHE is manufactured by the two technologies of micro photo-etching and diffusion bonding. In this paper, heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics by applying various configuration for the flow channel in the microchannel PCHE is experimentally investigated. The flow channel configurations are designed three types such as straight, wavy and offset strip channels. The performance experiment of each configuration is performed for Reynolds numbers in ranges of $100{\sim}700$ under various flow conditions for the hot side and the Reynolds number of cold side is fixed at 350. The inlet temperatures of the hot side and cold side are conducted as $40^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$, respectively. The heat transfer performance of wavy channel, which was similar to that of offset strip channel, was much higher than that of straight channel. The effectiveness of wavy channel and offset strip channel was evaluated as about $0.5{\sim}0.9$. The pressure drop of wavy channel was highest among configurations and that of offset strip channel was lower than that of straight channel because the round curved surface of each strip edge was reduced the pressure loss.

In order to maintain high level of control over and close coordination of foreign marketing activities, export manufacturers often consider vertical integration strategy into global distribution. However, full integration is not always a feasible option. The purpose of this study is to investigate the alternative ways to achieve optimal level of control over export channel system for desirable channel performance. This study investigates different options for integration of the vertical channel structure, and examines their effect on the performance. The findings of this study suggest different combination of ownership and coordination level has varying impact upon channel performance: efficiency, effectiveness, and adaptiveness. This implies exporters may achieve desirable performance control over export channel without fully integrating the channel via ownership.

In this paper, we focus on the potential of dual polarized antennas in mobile system. thus, this paper designs exact dual polarized channel with Spatial Channel Model (SCM) and investigates the performance for certain environment. Using proposed the channel model; we know estimates of the channel capacity as a function of cross polarization discrimination (XPD) and spatial fading correlation. It is important that the MIMO channel matrix consists of Kronecker product dividable spatial and polarized channel. Through the channel characteristics, we propose an algorithm for the adaptation of transmit antenna configuration to time varying propagation environments. The optimal active transmit antenna subset is determined with equal power allocated to the active transmit antennas, assuming no feedback information on types of the selected antennas. We first consider a heuristic decision strategy in which the optimal active transmit antenna subset and its system capacity are determined such that the transmission data rate is maximized among all possible types. This paper then proposes singular values decision procedure consisting of Kronecker product with spatial and polarize channel. This method of singular value decision, which the first channel environments is determined using singular values of spatial channel part which is made of environment parameters and distance between antennas. level of correlation. Then we will select antenna which have various polarization type. After spatial channel structure is decided, we contact polarization types which have considerable cases It is note that the proposed algorithms and analysis of dual polarized channel using SCM (Spatial Channel Model) optimize channel capacity and reduce the number of transmit antenna selection compare to heuristic method which has considerable 100 cases.

This paper is channel assignment and scheduling techniques for efficient wireless AMI network. In AMI system, the multi-channel cluster network to be proposed defines the communication channel between NC (Network Coordinator) and CDA (Clustered Data Aggregator) as the network channel. CDA and OMD(Out Meter display) and communication channel between SMD(Smart Meter Device) are defined as the group channel. AMI network of the multi-channel cluster based in which the network channel and group channel is mixed increases the administration efficiency through the physical/logical consumer channel clustering. The reliability of inspection data through the channel use distinguished between the adjacent cluster is enhanced. In addition, the fast aggregation of data is possible and the size of a metering network is increased through the channel allocation of the multichannel cluster based.

In this paper, we consider an independent type cognitive radio system where secondary users can utilize empty channels that are not currently used by primary users having the license to these channels. In the previous works, secondary users search channels sequently or randomly to detect activities of primary user on channels. These channel searching methods however are not suitable to the characteristics of the wireless environment. Therefore, we propose a channel searching method based on the channel list for the purpose of reducing the channel searching time and improving the throughput of secondary users. In the proposed method, we firstly determine weighting value of each channel based on the history of channel activities of primary users and add the weighing value to current channel state buffer. And then, we search an empty channel from channel with smallest value to one with the biggest value. Finally, we compare the performances of the proposed method with those of the sequential channel searching and the random channel searching methods in terms of average channel searching time and average number of transmissions of secondary user.

We proposed the infinity control principle to evaluate the Biological function. The H infinity control was applied to the Sodium (Na) ion selective gating channel on the excitable cellular membrane of the neural system. The channel opening, closing and inactivation processes were expressed by movements of three gates and one inactivation blocking particle in the channel pore. The rate constants of the channel state transition were set to be voltage dependent. The temporal changes in amounts per unit membrane area of the channel states were expressed by means of eight differential equations. The biochemical mimetic used to complete the Na ion selective channel was regarded as noise. The control inputs for ejecting the blocking particle with plugging in the channel pore were set for the active transition from inactivated states to a closed or open state. By applying the H infinity control, we computed temporal changes in the channel states, observers, control inputs and the worst case noises. The present paper will be available for evaluating the noise filtering function of the biological signal transmission system.

The detailed heat transfer coefficients on a rotating dimpled channel were measured by the hue detection based the transient liquid crystal technique. The dimples were fabricated on the one side of the channel and the tested channel aspect ratio was 4, 6, and 12 with fixed channel width. Tested Reynolds number based on the channel hydraulic diameter was varied from 21,000 to 47,000. A stationary case and two different rotating conditions were tested so that the dimple fabricated surface became leading or trailing surface. For all rotating conditions, the minimum averaged heat transfer coefficient was measured for the channel aspect ratio of 6. Generally, the highest averaged heat transfer coefficient was observed for the highest aspect ratio cases due to increased dimple induced vortex strength.
