It is known that when perfect CSI is available at each terminal, the interference alignment technique can be applied, to align the interference signals at each receivers in a subspace independent of the desired signal subspace. The impact of interference can hence be eliminated. In practice, however, terminals in general can acquire only noisy CSI. Interference alignment cannot be perfectly performed to avoid interference leakage in the signal subspace. Thus, the quality of each communication link depends on the transmission power of the unintended transmitters. To solve this problem, we propose an iterative algorithm to perform stochastic power control and transceiver design based on only noisy local CSI. The transceiver design is conducted based on the interference alignment concept, and the power control seeks solutions of efficiently assigning transmit powers to provide successful communications for all transmitter-receiver pairs.","PeriodicalId":104424,"journal":{"name":"International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134503397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, millimeter waves also come with a number of disadvantages that should not be overlooked, such as increased power consumption and decreased coverage distance. In addition to the advantages and disadvantages of millimeter waves, this paper also analyzes the differences between them and microwaves in terms of losses and also how millimeter waves could affect our health.","PeriodicalId":104424,"journal":{"name":"International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking","volume":"205 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121027114","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper a new computational algorithm is proposed for synthesizing the radiation pattern of linear antenna arrays. The proposed computational algorithm is based on parallel processing of streams of binary digits, and hence it can perform well in parallel processing digital systems. The optimization technique used in this algorithm is based on “Characteristics Evolution Optimization” method. In this paper, a 16 - element linear antenna array has been taken into consideration, and the performance of the proposed algorithm for synthesizing the radiation pattern of the array is investigated and compared with other existing techniques, such as Differential Evolution (DE), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), and Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO). Other forms of Invasive Weed Optimization are investigated as well. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms the other optimization techniques in different aspects.","PeriodicalId":104424,"journal":{"name":"International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115688131","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on their application, antennas have various designs, shapes, and specifications including gains radiation/ sensitivity patterns, operating frequencies, and gains. The Institution of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) has established IEEE802.11 protocol for coordinating the implementation of computer communications in wireless local area networks (WLAN). The antennas in this protocol should be designed to operate at certain operating frequencies including 60 GHz, 6 GHz, 5 GHz, and 2.4 GHz. Although the channels that could be used in WLANs are specified by IEEE 802.11, the availability of the allowed radio frequency spectra is determined by the regulatory domain. In this paper, a proposed design and implementation of a dual band microstrip fractal antenna for wireless LAN's is presented. The proposed antenna has dual bands with center frequencies of 2.45 GHz and 5.8 GHz according to IEEE802.11 standards. The antenna design is based on Minkowski pattern, and it is implemented using photoetching. Simulation and measurement results of radiation pattern, impedance, VSWR, return loss, bandwidth, gain, and polarization are obtained, analyzed, and compared to standard specifications.","PeriodicalId":104424,"journal":{"name":"International Black Sea Conference on Communications and Networking","volume":"21 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121991623","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
