On the performance of spectrum sensing based on GLR for full-duplex cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In cognitive radio networks, secondary users (SUs) utilize the unused spectrum slots in the assigned band for the primary users (PUs). Conventional cognitive radio networks operate in half-duplex (HD) mode. Recently, ...
Review on organic solar cells
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The serious threat of global warming on earth made it necessary to look for alternative sources of energy. In fact, the seek for clean and cheap energy is subject of several research investigations nowadays, and the invention ...
Asymptotic behaviour of contraction non-autonomous semi-flows in a Banach space: Application to first-order hyperbolic PDEs
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The asymptotic behaviour is studied for a class of non-autonomous infinite-dimensional non-linear dissipative systems. This is achieved by using the concept of contraction semi-flow, which is a generalization of contraction ...
Why is the Indian Sari an all-weather gear? Clothing insulation of Sari, Salwar-Kurti, Pancha, Lungi, and Dhoti
(
NCEUB 2016
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Barring a few reports on the clothing insulation of sari and salwar-Kurti, little is known about the other traditional ensembles men use in South Asia and beyond. To accurately account for the thermal insulation on the ...
Demonstrating the Worth of Recycled Aggregates - A Case Study from Qatar
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Recycled aggregates are widely used in unbound applications in many countries. However, in some areas the materials available may not meet all the requirements of the local specifications. This is the case in Qatar, where ...
QoE-oriented resource efficiency for 5G two-tier cellular networks: A femtocaching framework
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Video streaming applications and services (VASs) consume an enormous amount of scarce resources in mobile devices and cellular wireless networks due to the demand for high data rates of video streaming. The limited resource ...
Operation of three-phase modular multilevel converter (MMC) with reduced number of arms
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Conventional three-phase MMC consists of six-arms, each arm is controlled to generate unipolar voltage ranging from zero to Vdc where Vdc is the input DC voltage. Each arm voltage has two components (DC and AC components). ...
An efficient hybrid prediction approach for predicting cloud consumer resource needs
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
The prediction of cloud consumer resource needs is a vital step for several cloud deployment applications such as capacity planning, workload management, and dynamic allocation of cloud resources. In this paper, we develop ...
Robust distributed consensus of autonomous underwater vehicles in 3D space
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, robust distributed consensus of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUV) in the presence of ocean disturbances is investigated where the considered model describes both the kinematics and dynamics of the AUV ...
Authenticity detection as a binary text categorization problem: Application to Hadith authentication
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Authentication of Hadiths (sayings of Prophet Muhammad) is very important field for religious scholars as well as historians. Authenticity verification is traditionally conducted by studying how trustworthy is each person ...
