Joint optimization of throughput and delay over PPP interfered relay networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Future wireless networks are expected to achieve higher data rates and ubiquitous coverage by seamless cooperation among diverse network technologies. However, it also increases the risk of co-channel interference and ...
Heat powered water pump for reverse osmosis desalination
(
TechConnect
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Current desalination techniques are typically very energy intensive: energy consumption can account for up to 70% of the desalination costs. To improve economics of water desalination plants innovative energy efficient, ...
Dynamic Testing of a Laboratory Stadium Structure
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Studies with large physical models are a vital link between the theoretical work and field applications provided that these models are designed to represent real structures where various types and levels of uncertainties ...
Investigating the potential of delivering employer information requirements in BIM enabled construction projects in Qatar
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Employer's Information Requirements (EIR) is a key document for the successful delivery of construction projects using Building Information Modeling (BIM). EIR sets out the information to be delivered and the standards and ...
Power control and RB allocation for LTE uplink
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
According to 3GPP standards, the Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) was adopted for Uplink transmission in LTE networks. As multiple mobiles may have access to neighboring base stations simultaneously, ...
OCR based feature extraction and template matching algorithms for Qatari number plate
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
There are several algorithms and methods that could be applied to perform the character recognition stage of an automatic number plate recognition system; however, the constraints of having a high recognition rate and ...
Mobile manipulator performance measurement towards manufacturing assembly tasks
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Mobile manipulator performance measurement research is relatively minimal as compared to that of robot arms. Measurement methods, such as optical tracking systems, are useful for measuring the performance of mobile ...
Condition assessment of sewer pipelines using multi attribute utility theory (MAUT)
(
International Society for Trenchless Technology
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Many municipalities rely on the interpretation of Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) inspection reports to arrive to a condition assessment grade for the inspected sewer pipelines. The grades stand as a key for decision ...
Theoretical investigation on the effect of individual stage-gain selection on the 3-dB bandwidth of three-op-Amp difference amplifiers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The differential gain of a three-op-Amp difference amplifier is determined by the product of the gain values of its two stages. Usually, the total desired differential gain is assigned to the first stage while the gain of ...
Development of LPV models and switching LPV-H ? controller for a hydraulic system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper describes the development of linear parameter varying (LPV) models and an LPV-H ? controller for one degree of freedom (DoF) electro-hydraulic systems. A virtual set-up consists of a hydraulic actuator driven ...
