In this paper, we propose a sub-cell coverage control algorithm for enhancement of the cell throughput in OFDMA based relay systems. Relay station (RS) is exploited for improved quality of the received signal in cellular communication systems, especially in shadow areas. However, since a RS requires additional radio resource consumption for the link between the base station (BS) and the RS, we have to carefully control the coverage areas if a mobile station (MS) is serviced via the BS or the RS considering the cell throughput. We consider radio resource reuse as well for the sub-cell coverage configuration by applying various reuse patterns between RSs. We also consider a time varying system by adaptively changing the threshold for coverage depending on the MSs' traffic in the cell. We initially determine the sub-cell coverage of the system depending on the ratio of received signal-interference-noise-ratio (SINR) of the MS from the BS and RSs, respectively. Then, the "sub-cell coverage threshold" varies based on the "effective transmitted bits per sub-channel" with time. Simulation result shows that the proposed "time varying coverage control algorithm" leads to throughput improvement compared to the fixed sub-cell coverage configuration.

CAC is a very important issue in CDMA system in order to protect the required QoS(quality of service) and increase the system's capacity. In this paper, we proposed and analyzed a call admission control scheme using multiple thresholds, which can provide quick processing time and better performance. There are two effective thresholds used to decide call admission. One is the number of active users, and the other is the signal to interference ratio(SIR). If the threshold of active users are lower than the low number of users threshold, we accept the new call without any other conditions. Otherwise, we check the current SIR to guarantee the quality of our service. System then accepts the new call when the SIR satisfies system requirement. Otherwise, the call will be rejected. Multiple threshold schemes are investigated and their performance is compared with the number of user and power based CAC's. simulation results are provided to evaluate the performance.

A divided matched filter-reference filter(MF-RF) technique for LEO satellite packet transmission is proposed to increase the packet throughput in the presence of severe Doppler shift and fading. To overcome the severe Doppler shift, the divided matched filter is adopted where the integration region of matched filter is divided and ouputs of divided matched filer are added to decide the correct pseudo-noise (PN) phase. To maintain the constant false alarm rate in time varying interference and fading channel, the adaptive threshold for acquisition is obtained from the reference filter. As a performance measure, average acquisition time and packet throughput are used, and the effets of the parameters, i.e., Doppler shift, chip energy to noise ratio, user velocity, standard deviation of shadowing, and preamble length are shown.

In this paper, we proposed a handoff decision method based on signal-to-interference ratio(SIR) of the pilot channel in order to perform a handoff more effectively and to complement disadvantages - deterioration quality of a call, decreasing capacity of the system, and wasting power of the mobile station - which is caused when handoff is performed by the classical method that execute a handoff based on received signal strength. Moreover, when we change that the minimum threshold, the cell loading which is defined active traffic channels to total traffic channels ratio, and the fraction of the transmit power from base station allocated to the pilot channel on the forward link of a DS-CDMA system, we analyzed mean numbers of handoff depending on hysteresis level during the mobile station moving from one base station to another base station.

In this letter, a parity check based iterative IC scheme is proposed for LDPC coded MIMO systems. After the decoding procedures in each iteration of the proposed scheme, each decoded codeword is utilized for the IC procedures only when the ratio of the check nodes satisfying the parity check equations to the total number of check nodes is not smaller than the pre-defined threshold value. Simulation results verify that the proposed scheme can achieve an improved BLER at the high SNR region compared to the conventional iterative IC scheme.

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. A dynamical sensing range as a important parameter introduced to maintain the our protocol performance. The proposed protocol's simulation will show that proposed protocol does improve the throughput performance via traditional opportunistic spectrum access MAC protocol.

Magneto-cardiogram(MCG) signals may be highly distorted by the environmental noise, such as power-line interference, broadband white noise, surrounding magnetic noise, and baseline wondering. Several kinds of digital filters and noise cancellation methods have been designed and realized by many researchers, but these methods gave some problems that the original signal may be distorted by digital filter due to the wideband characteristics of background noise. To eliminate noise effectively without distortion of MCG signals, we performed multi-level frequency decomposition using wavelet packets and local adaptive noise cancellation in each local frequency range. In addition to the proposed wavelet filter to eliminate these various non-stationary noise elements, the local adaptive filter using the least mean square(LMS) algorithm and the soft threshold do-noising method are introduced in this paper. The signal to noise ratio(SNR) and the reconstruction square error(RSE) are calculated to evaluate the performance of the proposed method and compared with the results of the conventional wavelet filter and adaptive filter. The experimental results show that the proposed local adaptive filtering method is better than the conventional methods.

This paper reports optical properties and hole formation of a 488nm-optimumed trilayer structure utiluzed Te-based thin films as a recording layer, and the application of trilayer to 830nm. The optical recording characteristics of metallic recording media are enhanced significantly by incoporating the metal (Al) layer into an antireflection trilayer structure. Due to the interference condition inherent in the design of the trilayer structure, reflectance from holes is ranked a low fraction. the hole formation is carried out by laser by $Ar^+$ laser(488nm). For 20nsec laser pulse duration, the hole opening threshold power of $(Te_{86}Se_{14})_{50}Bi_{50}$ trilayer is lower than that of monolayor that used in this experiments. Hole shapes of the whole sample were clean. For the application of the diode laser, the thickness of dielectric is varied by$\lambda$/4n. In order to compare the monolayer with the trilayer reflectance was measured.

We investigate the connectivity of fading wireless ad-hoc networks with a pair of novel connectivity metrics. Our first metric looks at the problem of connectivity relying on the outage capacity of MIMO channels. Our second metric relies on a probabilistic treatment of the symbol error rates for such channels. We relate both capacity and symbol error rates to the characteristics of the underlying communication system such as antenna configuration, modulation, coding, and signal strength measured in terms of signal-to-interference-noise-ratio. For each metric of connectivity, we also provide a simplified treatment in the case of ergodic fading channels. In each case, we assume a pair of nodes are connected if their bi-directional measure of connectivity is better than a given threshold. Our analysis relies on the central limit theorem to approximate the distribution of the combined undesired signal affecting each link of an ad-hoc network as Gaussian. Supported by our simulation results, our analysis shows that (1) a measure of connectivity purely based on signal strength is not capable of accurately capturing the connectivity phenomenon, and (2) employing multiple antenna mobile nodes improves the connectivity of fading ad-hoc networks.
