  • Understanding farmer household and community management of crop diversity is necessary in order to effectively strengthen the local plant genetic resources management system in Vietnam, Assessment and management for distribution of farmer's cultivars of rice, taro and tropical tree species were conducted in four different agro-ecological zones in Vietnam using participatory approaches, focus surveys, diversity fairs, agro-morphological field trials, isozyme analysis to understand why Vietnamese farmers grow diverse types of these crop cultivars, when and where these crops cultivars are grown and how farmers maintain and use them. Results showed significant differences in the extent, distribution and use pattern crop cultivars diversity in contrasting environments and between community farmer households. Seed system is an important role in the access and use of diversity in eco-geographical regions.

  • In this paper, we propose how to improve the lack of diversity in collaborative filtering, using tag scores contained in items rather than ratings of items. Collaborative filtering has excellent performance among recommendation system, but it is evaluated as lacking diversity. In order to solve this problem, this paper proposes a method for supplementing diversity lacking in collaborative filtering by using tags. By using tags that can be used universally without using the characteristics of specific articles in a recommendation system, The proposed method can be used.

  • In this paper, we introduce a packet diversity scheme to increase uplink channel utilization in a wireless network where forward error correction is used. The packet diversity allows neighbor base stations to receive uplink packets from a mobile terminal in order to increase the utilization of the uplink channel. By allowing multiple base stations to receive the same packets, we can improve the error correction capability in an uplink channel. By incorporating the packet diversity we can reduce the parity overhead of each packet for a given tolerable loss probability, which improves the link efficiency.

  • In this study, the performance of a 32-quadrature amplitude position modulation (QAPM) system is analyzed under a Rician fading channel condition when the maximal ratio combining (MRC) diversity technique is used in the receiver. The fading channel is modeled as a frequency non-selective slow Rician fading channel corrupted by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). QAPM is available to improve BER performance without amplifying transmit power, and MRC diversity makes the performance improvement of QAPM system even bigger by intentionally maximizing SNR. Error performances are shown for the 32-QAPM system and a 32-phase silence shift keying (PSSK) system in order to examine the effects of fading severity, for various values of the Rician parameter, K. The dependence of error rates on MRC diversity is also analyzed. The simulation results show that the BER performance of the 32-QAPM system is better than that of the 32-PSSK system under the above mentioned conditions.

  • Since the publication of Alamouti's famous space-time block code, various quasi-orthogonal space-time block codes (QSTBC) for multi-input multi-output (MIMO) fading channels for more than two transmit antennas have been proposed. It has been shown that these codes cannot achieve full diversity at full rate. In this paper, we present a simple feedback scheme for rich scattering (flat Rayleigh fading) MIMO channels that improves the coding gain and diversity of a QSTBC for 2$^n$ (n=3, 4, ${\cdots}$) transmit antennas. The relevant channel state information is sent back from the receiver to the transmitter quantized to one or two bits per code block. In this way, signal transmission with an improved coding gain and diversity near to the maximum diversity order is achieved. Such high diversity can be exploited with either a maximum-likelihood receiver or low-complexity zero-forcing receiver.

  • A study on the dominance-diversity of forest vegetation in Mt. Seolag was conducted from May 1981 to Aug. 1983. Based on the field data, the dominance-diversity curves were for 16 sites including slopes and vallies. The curves are grouped in two types, lognormal distribution at the sites of mature vegetation and geometric series at the disturbed or rocky sites. It seems that the curves express the nature of their ecocline, by the hypotheses of some investigators, i.e. Random Niche hypothesis, Niche Pre-emption hypothesis, Lognormal distribution and Logarithmic series. The dominance concentration among the southern, northern and western slope, H'=1.282 at southern slope and H'=1.385 at western slope. Dominance-diversity curves of 16 sites showed Preston's lognormal distribution with small variations among them. It seems that the dominance diversity reflects the differences in the coenocline of their sites. The top 10 dominant species in species sequence of 113 tree species in whole the mountain, were noticed: Quercus mongolica, Pinus densiflora, Acer pseudo-siebold anum, Quercus serrata, Carpinus laxiflora, Styrax obassia, Fraxinus rhynchophylla, Tilia amurensis, Lindera obtusiloba and Abies holophylla in order.

  • This paper introduces the coded cooperation protocol in wireless relay network. We propose a two relay based coded cooperation protocol with RCPC codes for wireless networks. The proposed two-relay based system can achieve a diversity of order 4 under slow fading environment. Under fast fading, the diversity order is 2 times of the free distance of the convolutional code. We develop upper bounds on BER and FER for the system under both slow and fast fading with Rayleigh distribution. The effect of various channel conditions on the cooperation is also examined in this work.

  • In this paper, we propose a path loss model with the multiple antennas using diversity effect. Currently wireless communication systems use the multiple antennas in order to improve the channel capacity or diversity gain. However, until recently, many researches on path loss model only consider geographical environment between the transmitter and the receiver. There is no study about path loss model considering diversity effect. Nowaday wireless communication use the multiple antennas and we in common find examples using diversity scheme that is method in order to enhance a channel capacity. Moreover we anticipate that it work harder in future researches. But in this communication system, path loss model isn't established that predict strength of received signal. So, in order to predict strength of received signal, we take changing SNR by diversity gain. When exceeding the number of antennas of receiver are 7 in proposed model, diversity effect is saturated. Therefore we consider the number of antenna of receiver until 10. We find RMSE between proposed model and value of calculation is 1. We calculate the diversity gain by conventional BER curve. Proposed model can predict loss of received signal in system using multiple antennas.

  • In this paper, we analyzed a two-branch polarization diversity at a mobile station in NLOS environment when a base station transmits a circularly polarized wave. In order to calculate the correlation coefficient considering the XPD(cross polarization discrimination) between the received signals for the two diversity branches, a simple theoretical model of circular polarization diversity is adopted. From the analysis results, it can be seen that the XPD of circularly polarized wave is less than vertically polarized wave about 6~7 dB in measurement results. And also, it is clearly seen that the correlation coefficient of circular polarization diversity evaluated by the XPD is less than that of vertical polarization diversity.

  • In order to understand the spatial distribution of picocyanobacterial diversity during the summer in the northern East China Sea (ECS), their abundance and genetic diversity were investigated using flow cytometry and barcoded amplicon pyrosequencing of 16S-23S internal transcribed spacer sequences. Synechococcus abundance was high, with a range of $0.2{\times}10^5$ to $1.8{\times}10^5$ cells $ml^{-1}$. However, Prochlorococcus were found only in the eastern part of the studied area, showing a marked variation among stations [range of n.d. (not detected) to $3.3{\times}10^4$ cells $ml^{-1}$]. Eleven Synechococcus clades and five Prochlorococcus ecotypes were found to have a proportion higher than 1% among picocyanobacterial sequences, indicating high picocyanobacterial diversity in the ECS. The picocyanobacterial compositions were markedly different among stations, as well as among depths. Inflow of the Tsushima Warm Current and Changjiang diluted water was of primary importance in determining picocyanobacterial lineage diversity in the studied area. In addition, light intensity and nutrient conditions also appeared to be important in the vertical and horizontal distribution of picocyanobacterial diversity.
