Energy efficient path planning techniques for UAV-based systems with space discretization
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles are miniature air-crafts that have proliferated in many military and civil applications. Their affordability allows for tasks to be held with not just one but a fleet of UAVs. One of the problems ...
Discrete event simulation for sustainable batch production in food processing
(
Dime University of Genoa
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In a world faced with depleting resources and hazardous biodegradable food wastes, an efficient planning for the food processing operation is crucial to avoid the adverse potential impact of excess food production. This ...
RB allocation based on genetic algorithm in cloud radio access networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This work proposes a method to optimize the resource block allocation in the cloud radio access network for a long term evolution system. This approach consists in three steps. First, the baseband unit collects the required ...
Performance of eigenvalue based spectrum sensing in full-duplex cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Spectrum sensing is a key component in any cognitive radio network. Recently full-duplex communication, i.e., the ability to transmit and receive at the same time at the same frequency, has become feasible. Residual self ...
Network function virtualization scheduling with transmission delay optimization
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
To accelerate the implementation of network functions/middle boxes and reduce the deployment cost, recently the concept of Network Function Virtualization (NFV) has emerged and became a topic of much interest attracting ...
Monitoring DVT cuffs for long-term operation: A fuzzy approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Stroke patients, as well as all those patients who are bed-bound for a long period of time are highly susceptible to deep vein thrombosis (DVT) as secondary complexity. DVT poses more dangers of a loose blood clot obstructing ...
Wireless multihoming for smart grid high data rate applications
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems are used extensively to monitor/control utility power distribution networks. However, the current SCADA systems cannot accommodate the demand of smart grid high data ...
Event-triggered fault detection for discrete-time linear multi-agent systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper studies the design and development of event-triggered fault detection (FD) filters for discrete-time linear multi-agent systems. For each agent, an FD filter is designed that receives the output measurements ...
Self-organizing binary encoding for approximate nearest neighbor search
(
European Signal Processing Conference, EUSIPCO
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Approximate Nearest Neighbor (ANN) search for indexing and retrieval has become very popular with the recent growth of the databases in both size and dimension. In this paper, we propose a novel method for fast approximate ...
A Novel method for online correction of amplitude and phase imbalances in sinusoidal encoders signals
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Resolvers and other sinusoidal transducers are angular position and speed sensors that produce supposedly perfect sine and cosine signals in which the angular position is encoded. Suitable converters are normally used to ...
