  • A hybrid free-space-optical/radio-frequency (FSO/RF) communication system is considered, with the help of amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying. We consider various weather conditions to investigate their effects on the system's performance. We begin by obtaining the cumulative distribution function and probability density function of the end-to-end signal-to-noise ratio for the AF dual-hop FSO communication system with RF backup link. Then, these results are used to derive closed-form expressions for the outage probability, average bit-error rate, and average ergodic capacity. The results show that the considered system efficiently employs the complementary nature of FSO and RF links, resulting in impressive performance improvements compared to non-hybrid systems.

  • The six core competencies have been emphasized in the mathematics curriculum revised in 2015. In particular, the communication is very important for students' representing their own thinking and enhancing much higher mathematical thinking. Based on this competency, this study selected the four elements of the communication such as the understanding of mathematical representation, development and transition of mathematical representation, the representation of his own thinking, the understanding of the others' thinking. And also this study selected the domain of function which is comprised of the content of the coordinate plane, the graph, proportionality in the seventh grade mathematics textbook. By the subject of the ten kinds of textbook, this study examined how the four elements of the communication competency were shown in each textbook.

  • Images obtained from underwater are usually degraded due to the environmental conditions. Some of the typical degradation factors include turbidity and color degradation. These degradations can be attributed to the absorptive and scattering properties of underwater degradation in terms of optical parameters, such as modulation transfer function (MTF), optical transfer function (OTF),point spread function (PSF), and color constancy. In this paper, we use the CODE V optical simulation software to mimic underwater conditions and model the imaging platform, thereby studying various parameters, such as PSF and MTF, and we use the PSF to remove the underwater turbidity. Experimental results show increased performance with the algorithm, compared to other existing methods.

  • Available transfer capability(ATC) quantifies the viable increase in real power transfer from one point to another in a power system. ATC calculation has predominantly focussed on steady-state viability. In many power systems, point-to-point transfer is not restricted by steady-state limits, but by undesirable dynamic behavior following large disturbance. In this paper, an energy function method for transient stability ATC computation is proposed, which utilizes a between the potential energy and energy function.

  • In this paper, we propose an efficient algorithm for reducing the complexity of LDPC code decoding by using node monitoring (NM) and Piecewise Linear Function Approximation (NP). This NM algorithm is based on a new node-threshold method, and the message passing algorithm. Piecewise linear function approximation is used to reduce the complexity for more. This algorithm was simulated in order to verify its efficiency. Simulation results show that the complexity of our NM algorithm is reduced to about 20%, compared with thoes of well-known method.

  • Deep reinforcement learning (RL) significantly influences autonomous vehicle development by optimizing decision-making and adaptation to complex driving environments through simulation-based training. In deep RL, an activation function is used, and various activation functions have been proposed, but their performance varies greatly depending on the application environment. Therefore, finding the optimal activation function according to the environment is important for effective learning. In this paper, we analyzed nine commonly used activation functions for RL to compare and evaluate which activation function is most effective when using deep RL for autonomous vehicles to learn highway merging. To do this, we built a performance evaluation environment and compared the average reward of each activation function. The results showed that the highest reward was achieved using Mish, and the lowest using SELU. The difference in reward between the two activation functions was 10.3%.

  • This Study is Transfer function optimization plan of volume rendering of multi user environment. Each volume data, for appropriate transfer function, they should be adjusted parameter many times. To prevent this, we propose transfer function optimization plan using crowd sourcing. In multi user environment, we use weight value for reliability level for each user. Because transfer function parameter used previous users is provided next users, they can be used effectively optimized transfer function and can reduce attempts.

  • This paper proposes a simple linear function approximation method to solve an economic load dispatch problem with complex non-smooth generating cost function. This algorithm approximates a non-smooth power cost function to a linear approximate function and subsequently shuts down a generator with the highest operating cost and reduces the power of generator with more generating cost in order to balance the generating power and demands. When applied to the most prevalent benchmark economic load dispatch cases, the proposed algorithm is found to dramatically reduce the power cost than does heuristic algorithm. Moreover, it has successfully obtained results similar to those obtained through a quadratic approximate function method.

  • In this paper, A useful nonlinear function for the RBF(Radial Basis Function) equalization is proposed. This proposed function need not calculate an exponential function that is generally used for conventional RBF equalizer and uses the only four rules of arithmetic. Therefore the computational requirement for the RBF equalizer with the proposed function is decreased. As a computer simulation result, the equalizer with the proposed function effectively reduce nonlinear intersymbol interference, caused by nonlinear communication channel.
