In this paper, blind equalization using a modified Fuzzy C-Means algorithm with Gaussian Weights (MFCM_GW) is attempted to the heavy noise-corrupted channels. The proposed algorithm can deal with both of linear and nonlinear channels, because it searches for the optimal channel output states of a channel instead of estimating the channel parameters in a direct manner. In contrast to the common Euclidean distance in Fuzzy C-Means (FCM), the use of the Bayesian likelihood fitness function and the Gaussian weighted partition matrix is exploited in its search procedure. The selected channel states by MFCM_GW are always close to the optimal set of a channel even the additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) is heavily corrupted in it. Simulation studies demonstrate that the performance of the proposed method is relatively superior to existing genetic algorithm (GA) and conventional FCM based methods in terms of accuracy and speed.

In this paper, we hve compare the performance of DAR(Dynamic Adaptive Routing) with that of FSR(Flooding Search Routing) to select an adequate routing protocol in circuit-switched networs. As a performance factor, we have considered call setup time, which is the key factor of performance evaluation in circuit switched networks. We have evaluated the performance of two methods in grid topology circuit-switched networks using a commn channel signaling scheme, as application examples. As results, FSR method shows better performance than DAR method under light traffic load, when the number of links by which call has passed increases, but DAR method represents better performance than FSR method under heavy traffic load or large networks because of redundant packets.

In this paper, we consider a code acquisition of W-CDMA signals over multipath Rayleigh fading channel when double-dwell serial search code acquisition is used for initial synchronization. We derive the detection and false alarm probability, and mean acquisition time mathematically by taking into account of multiple H$\_$l/ cells and double-dwell serial search. It is noteworthy that the more the number of the post-detection integration, the shorter the mean acquisition time in low SNR.

In this paper the Individual tap - Least Mean Square(IT-LMS) algorithm is applied to the adaptive multipath channel equalization using hybrid-type Genetic Algorithm(GA) for achieving lower minimum Mean Squared Error(MSE). Owing to the global search performance of GA, LMS-type equalizers combined with it have shown preferable performance in both global and local search but those still have unsatisfying minimum MSE performance. In order to lower the minimum MSE we investigated excess MSE of IT-LMS algorithm and applied it to the hybrid GA equalizer. The high convergence rate and lower minimum MSE of the proposed system give us reason to expect that it will perform well in practical multi-path channel equalization systems.

In this paper, we propose a low-complexity robust maximum likelihood (ML) receiver for generalized spatial modulation. The proposed receiver performs the transmit antenna partition to lower the computational loads. After we divide the transmit antenna combinations into two parts, one of which is "the likely TAC part," and the other of which is "the unlikely TAC part", based on the minimum mean square error (MMSE) filtering output. We first perform the maximum likelihood detection only in the likely TAC part. Then we evaluate the reliability of the solution found in the first search, and based its reliability we decide whether we continue the search in the unlikely TAC part. This partitioned search strategy maintains the performance of the conventional robust maximum likelihood receiver and simultaneously lowers computational loads. Through simulation, we found that our newly-proposed receiver achieves considerable gains over the conventional robust ML detector in terms of the computational loads while providing almost the same performance.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the consumers' characteristics in terms of information source usage and purchase channel choice focusing on apparel purchasers in the multichannel retailing environment. The specific research objects are as follows: analyzing consumer's information source usage and purchase channel choice when buying their own clothing, examining the differences of consumers' characteristics according to the groups who are classified by their information source usages, and examining the differences of consumers' characteristics according to the purchase channel choice. The data was collected from adults over 20 years of age who had bought their own clothing within the last year. The questionnaire was carried out during September 2019, using a professional internet research panel, and 490 useful data sets were analyzed by utilizing descriptive statistics, factor analysis, reliability analysis, chi-squared test, ANOVA and a Duncan-test using SPSS 21.0. The findings showed that there were also significant differences of consumers' characteristics which included age, gender, monthly clothing expenditure, purchase price, shopping value and perceived risk according to the consumer's information source usage and their purchase channel choice.

In this paper, we propose a fast cell search algorithm keeping compatible with the standard cell search algorithm of the WCDMA system. The proposed algorithm can acquire the synchronization of slot and frame times, and the code group identification using only one synchronization channel while the standard algorithm employs two synchronization channels called P-SCH and S-SCH. The proposed synchronization channel structure is the same as the P-SCH structure of the WCDMA system. However, the P-SCH is modulated with a specific polarization code, which is one element of new code group codes. The proposed algorithm can reduce both the BS' transmission power and the complexity of receiver as compared with the conventional one since only on synchronization channel is used. It is shown through the computer simulation that the proposed algorithm yields a significant improvement in terms of cell search time compared with the standard especially in low SNR environments.

Multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) systems are considered to improve the capacity and reliability of next generation mobile communication. However, the multiple RF chains associated with multiple antennas are costly in terms of size, power and hardware. Antenna selection is a low-cost low-complexity alternative to capture many of the advantages of MIMO systems. We proposed new joint Tx/Rx antenna selection algorithm with low complexity. The proposed algorithm is a method selects $L_R{\times}L_T$ channel matrix out of $L_R{\times}L_T$ entire channel gain matrix where $L_R{\times}L_T$ matrix selects alternate Tx antenna with Rx antenna which have the largest channel gain to maximize Frobenius norm. The feature of this algorithm is very low complexity compare with Exhaustive search which have optimum capacity. In case of $4{\times}4$ antennas selection out of $8{\times}8$ antennas, the capacity decreases $0.5{\sim}2dB$ but the complexity also decreases about 1/10,000 than optimum exhaustive search.

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiplexing is an attractive technology that increases the channel capacity without requiring additional spectral resources. The design of low complexity and high performance detection algorithms capable of accurately demultiplexing the transmitted signals is challenging. In this technical survey, we introduce the state-of-the-art MIMO detection techniques. These techniques are divided into three categories, viz. linear detection (LD), decision-feedback detection (DFD), and tree-search detection (TSD). Also, we introduce the lattice basis reduction techniques that obtain a more orthogonal channel matrix over which the detection is done. Detailed discussions on the advantages and drawbacks of each detection algorithm are also introduced. Furthermore, several recent author contributions related to MIMO detection are revisited throughout this survey.

As merging online and offline channels into one single platform, individuals could easily and frequently switch between online and offline channels. In order for understanding such unique behaviors, this study attempts to explore why and how consumers choose their channels to search and purchase a product. We have drawn on multiple theories that have been used to explain individuals' judgment and decision making (i.e., construal level theory and regula-tory focus theory) in order to develop and tested two-way ANOVA based models of how both regulatory focus (e.g., promotion vs. prevention) and product types (e.g., experience goods vs. searching goods) including the psychological distance cue separately and jointly affect individuals' channel selection behavior (e.g., intention to use single channel vs. intention to use cross-channels). Our results have indicated that consumers with promotion-focus are more likely to use a single channel in experience goods rather than in searching goods when there exists the psychological cue. Based on our findings, the implication for both research and practice are discussed.
