This work investigates the progressive linear precoder design for packet retransmissions in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems with multiple codewords and automatic repeat request (ARQ) bundling feedback. Assuming perfect channel state information, a novel progressive linear ARQ precoder is proposed in the perspective of minimizing the packet error rate. We devise the ARQ precoder by combining power loading and sub channel pairing between current retransmission and previous transmissions. Furthermore, we extend the design to the case that the channel estimation error exists. Numerical results show that the proposed scheme can improve the performance of MIMO ARQ systems significantly regardless of the channel estimation error.

Skeleton-based action recognition has attracted considerable attention in human action recognition. Recent methods for skeleton-based action recognition employ spatiotemporal graph convolutional networks (GCNs) and have remarkable performance. However, most of them have heavy computational complexity for robust action recognition. To solve this problem, we propose a shuffle graph convolutional network (SGCN) which is a lightweight graph convolutional network using pointwise group convolution rather than pointwise convolution to reduce computational cost. Our SGCN is composed of spatial and temporal GCN. The spatial shuffle GCN contains pointwise group convolution and part shuffle module which enhances local and global information between correlated joints. In addition, the temporal shuffle GCN contains depthwise convolution to maintain a large receptive field. Our model achieves comparable performance with lowest computational cost and exceeds the performance of baseline at 0.3% and 1.2% on NTU RGB+D and NTU RGB+D 120 datasets, respectively.

Energy efficiency in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is a critical issue because batteries are used for operation and communication. In terms of scalability, energy efficiency, data integration, and resilience, WSN-cluster-based routing algorithms often outperform routing algorithms without clustering. Low-energy adaptive clustering hierarchy (LEACH) is a cluster-based routing protocol with a high transmission efficiency to the base station. In this paper, we propose an energy consumption model for LEACH and compare it with the existing LEACH, advanced LEACH (ALEACH), and power-efficient gathering in sensor information systems (PEGASIS) algorithms in terms of network lifetime. The energy consumption model comprises energy-sensitive cluster formation and a cluster head selection technique. The setup and steady-state phases of the proposed model are discussed based on the cluster head selection. The simulation results demonstrated that a low-energy-consumption network was introduced, modeled, and validated for LEACH.

본 논문에서는 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 기반으로 하는 퍼지뉴럴네트워크를 제안한다. 일반적으로, 퍼지규칙을 생성할 때 차원이 증가하면 퍼지 규칙의 수가 기하급수적으로 증가하는 문제를 가지고 있다. 이를 해결하기 위해, 제안된 네트워크의 퍼지 규칙은 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘을 이용하여 입력 공간을 분산 형태로 분할함으로써 생성한다. 퍼지 규칙의 전반부 파라미터는 FCM 클러스터링 알고리즘에 의한 소속행렬로 결정된다. 퍼지 규칙의 후반부는 다항식 함수의 형태로 표현되며, 퍼지뉴럴네트워크의 학습은 뉴런의 연결을 조절함으로써 실현되고, 오류 역전파 알고리즘에 의해 행해진다. 마지막으로, 제안된 네트워크는 비선형 공정으로의 적용을 통해 성능을 평가한다.

전자상거래의 경제적 효과는 인터넷의 활용으로 전제적인 거래비용을 줄임으로써 기업의 구조와 사업영역을 변화시키고, 중소기업의 시장진입을 쉽게 함으로써 다양한 거래형태와 많은 이익을 안겨주고 있다. 또한 전자상거래는 검색비용, 배달시간 등을 절감시키고 소매업을 변형시켜 제품의 설계와 소비자에게 최종판매되는 공급사슬의 매개와 교환에 영향을 끼치고 있다. 따라서 전자상거래에서 얻을 수 있는 전체적인 효과는 낮은 거래비용으로 국내외적인 경쟁촉진, 품질향상과 가격하락, 기업간 상거래와 소매업의 변형을 들 수 있다.

Although designing a virtual topology for all-optical WDM wide-area networks has been extensively studied and several algorithms have been proposed, these algorithms assumed error-free communication between two nodes. However, noises from optical amplifiers and optical cross-connects can degraded the signal, resulting in a nonzero bit-error rate. In this paper, we investigate the effect of physical limitations on the virtual topology design. We show that for side-area all-optical networks where transmission distance is fairly long, virtual topology design algorithm that can determine the locations of opto-electronic(OE) and electro-optic(EO) conversions to set up a connection request with a high BER in a multihop manner.

We consider the sensor selection problem in large sensor networks where the goal is to find the best set of sensors that maximizes application objectives. Since sensor selection typically involves a large number of sensors, a low complexity should be maintained for practical applications. We propose a geometry-based sensor selection algorithm that utilizes only the information of sensor locations. In particular, by observing that sensors clustered together tend to have redundant information, we theorize that the redundancy is inversely proportional to the distance between sensors and seek to minimize this redundancy by searching for a set of sensors with the maximum average distance. To further reduce the computational complexity, we perform an iterative sequential search without losing optimality. We apply the proposed algorithm to an acoustic sensor network for source localization, and demonstrate using simulations that the proposed algorithm yields significant improvements in the localization performance with respect to the randomly generated sets of sensors.

In this paper, we propose a framework to study how to route packets efficiently in multipath communication networks. Two traffic congestion control techniques, namely, flow assignment and packet scheduling, have been investigated. The flow assignment mechanism defines an optimal splitting of data traffic on multiple disjoint paths. The resequencing delay and the usage of the resequencing buffer can be reduced significantly by properly scheduling the sending order of all packets, say, according to their expected arrival times at the destination. To illustrate our model, and without loss of generality, Gaussian distributed end-to-end path delays are used. Our analytical results show that the techniques are very effective in reducing the average end-to-end path delay, the average packet resequencing delay, and the average resequencing buffer occupancy for various path configurations. These promising results can form a basis for designing future adaptive multipath protocols.

This paper proposes a new group mobility model for wireless communication. The mobility model considers the psychological and sociological behavior of each node and the perception of other nodes for describing interactions among a set of nodes. The model assumes no permanent membership of a group, capable of capturing natural behaviors as fork and join. It emulates a cooperative movement pattern observed in mobile ad hoc networks of military operation and campus, in which a set of mobile stations accomplish a cooperative motion affected by the individual behavior as well as a group behavior. The model also employs a physic model to avoid a sudden stopping and a sharping turning.

In this paper, an analytical framework is proposed for the optimization of network performance through joint congestion control, channel allocation, rate allocation, power control, scheduling, and routing with the consideration of fairness in multi-channel wireless multihop networks. More specifically, the framework models the network by a generalized network utility maximization (NUM) problem under an elastic link data rate and power constraints. Using the dual decomposition technique, the NUM problem is decomposed into four subproblems - flow control; next-hop routing; rate allocation and scheduling; power control; and channel allocation - and finally solved by a low-complexity distributed method. Simulation results show that the proposed distributed algorithm significantly improves the network throughput and energy efficiency compared with previous algorithms.
