In the satellite communications, the frequency sharing with other services is important because the service coverage is generally very wide and overlaps with those of other wireless services. This paper introduces a new technique to mitigate interference into the terrestrial stations from the Earth station in the same frequency band by means of band segmentations which are portions of the overall operation frequency band divided by frequency reuse factor. We consider a multi-beam satellite system, where frequency bands are reused in each satellite cell. The terrestrial stations use band segmentations of adjacent satellite cells, and this may decrease the interferences. By this way, the terrestrial and satellite systems can share the same frequency bands efficiently. The simulation is performed at frequency reuse factors, seven and three. The simulation results show that the proposed method can highly reduce the interference level to -168 dBW or -163 dBW depending on the considered frequency reuse factor from -117 dBW at the 90% link availability.

It is widely accepted that the coverage with high user densities can only be achieved with small cell such as micro- and pico-cell. The smaller cell size causes frequent handovers between cells and a decrease in the permissible handover Processing delay. This may result in the handover failure. in addition to the loss of some Packets during the handover. In these cases. re-transmission is needed in order to compensate errors, which triggers a rapid degradation of throughput. In this paper, we propose a new handover scheme in the next generation mobile communication systems, in which the handover setup process is done in advance before a handover request by predicting the handover cell based on mobile terminal's current position and moving direction. Simulation is focused on the handover failure rate and Packet loss rate. The simulation results show that our proposed method provides a better performance than the conventional method.

In order to cope with shadow areas and to extend cell coverage, relay-assisted wireless communication systems have been widely studied. In this paper, we propose a space-frequency(SF) block coded orthogonal frequency division multiple access(OFDMA) transmission system in a relaying multi-path shadow area. The receiving performance of mobile station in a shadow area can be improved by applying SF block code to the recovered signals of multiple relays before re-transmitting them. The simulation result shows that the proposed SF block coded OFDMA transmission system considerably outperforms the conventional single-path OFDMA transmission system.

In this paper, we propose the novel test method effectively to detect short and open faults in CMOS op-amp. The proposed method uses a sinusoidal signal with higher frequency than unit gain bandwidth. Since the proposed test method doesn't need complex algorithm to generate test pattern, the time of test pattern generation is short, and test cost is reduced because a single test pattern is able to detect all target faults. To verify the proposed method, CMOS two-stage operational amplifier with short and open faults is designed and the simulation results of HSPICE for the circuit have shown that the proposed test method can detect short and open faults in CMOS op-amp.

This paper introduces an asynchronous multiple radar fusion algorithm for space object tracking. To estimate orbital motion of space object, a multiple radar scenario which jointly measures single object with different sampling time indices is described. STK/ODTK is utilized to determine realization of orbital motion and joint coverage of multiple radars. Then, asynchronous fusion algorithm is adapted to enhance the estimation performance of orbital motion during which multiple radars measure the same time instances. Monte-Carlo simulation results demonstrate that the proposed asynchronous multi-sensor fusion scheme better than single linearized Kalman filter in an aspect of root mean square error.

This paper investigates the power allocation and outage performance of MIMO full-duplex relaying (MFDR), based on orthogonal space-time block codes (OSTBC), in cognitive radio systems. OSTBC transmission is used as a simple means to achieve multi-antenna diversity gain. Cognitive MFDR systems not only have the advantage of increasing spectral efficiency through spectrum sharing, but they can also extend coverage through the use of relays. In cognitive MFDR systems, the primary user experiences interference from the secondary source and relay simultaneously, owing to full duplexing. It is therefore necessary to optimize the transmission powers at the secondary source and relay. In this paper, we propose an optimal power allocation (OPA) scheme based on minimizing the outage probability in cognitive MFDR systems. We also analyse the outage probability of the secondary user in noise-limited and interference-limited environments in Nakagami-m fading channels. Simulation results show that the proposed schemes achieve performance improvements in terms of reducing outage probability.

Smoke detection is helpful for early fire detection. With its large coverage area and low cost, vision-based smoke detection technology is the main research direction of outdoor smoke detection. We propose a two-stage smoke detection method combined with block Deep Normalization and Convolutional Neural Network (DNCNN) and visual change image. In the first stage, each suspected smoke region is detected from each frame of the images by using block DNCNN. According to the physical characteristics of smoke diffusion, a concept of visual change image is put forward in this paper, which is constructed by the video motion change state of the suspected smoke regions, and can describe the physical diffusion characteristics of smoke in the time and space domains. In the second stage, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) classifier is used to classify the Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) features of visual change images of the suspected smoke regions, in this way to reduce the false alarm caused by the smoke-like objects such as cloud and fog. Simulation experiments are carried out on two public datasets of smoke. Results show that the accuracy and recall rate of smoke detection are high, and the false alarm rate is much lower than that of other comparison methods.

Femtocell (FC) technology envisaged as a cost-effective approach to attain better indoor coverage of mobile voice and data service. Deployment of FCs over macrocell forms a heterogeneous network. In urban areas, the key factor limits the successful deployment of FCs is inter-cell interference (ICI), which severely affects the performance of victim users. Autonomous FC transmission power setting is one straightforward way for coordinating ICI in the downlink. Application of intelligent control using soft computing techniques has not yet explored well for wireless networks. In this work, autonomous FC transmission power setting strategy using Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System is proposed. The main advantage of the proposed method is zero signaling overhead, reduced computational complexity and bare minimum delay in performing power setting of FC base station because only the periodic channel measurement reports fed back by the user equipment are needed. System level simulation results validate the effectiveness of the proposed method by providing much better throughput, even under high interference activation scenario and cell edge users can be prevented from going outage.

The main purpose of this article is a complex hyperthermia applicator system design for treatment of head and neck region. The applicator system is composed of four waveguides with a stripline horn aperture and circular water bolus. The specific absorption rate (SAR) and temperature distribution from this applicator in various numerical phantom models was investigated. For used targets, the treatment planning based on the optimization process made through the SEMCAD X software is added to show the steering possibilities of SAR and thereby temperature distribution. Using treatment planning software, we proved that the SAR and temperature distribution can be effectively controlled (by amplitude and phase changing) improving the SAR and temperature target coverage approximately by 20 %. For the proposed applicator system analysis and quantitative evaluation of two parameters 25 % iso-SAR and $41^{\circ}C$ iso-temperature contours in the treatment area with the respect to sensitive structures in treatment area were defined. To verify our simulation results, the real measurement of reflectivity coefficient as well as the temperature distribution in a homogenous phantom were performed.

In this paper, we propose weighted detection probability with distance between primary user and secondary users by using cooperative spectrum sensing based on energy detection. And we analysis and simulate the result. We suggest different distance between primary user and secondary users and the wireless channel between primary user and secondary users is modeled as Gaussian channel. From the simulation results of the cooperative spectrum sensing with weighted method make coverage bigger compared with non-weight, and We show higher sensing efficiency when we put weight detection probability than before method.
