When unaffected by the weather, the measurements are in good agreement with the simulated results. Based on the measurements for a distance of 60 meter, the impact of different weather conditions on the FSO link was assessed. The result shows that the link loss differs greatly under these three weather conditions, i.e., snow, rain and cloud. Combined with empirical formulas for the specific attenuation of snow and rain, the physical mechanism was inferred. The results indicate that the high attenuation in times of rain and cloud should be ascribed to the water vapor absorption in the near-infrared region, which needs further investigating.","PeriodicalId":131597,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Broadband Communications for Next Generation Networks and Multimedia Applications (CoBCom)","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127354732","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}

Optimal allocation and use of resources can be achieved through the use of call admission control (CAC) mechanisms in networks. One of the most popular mechanisms is the resource reservation mechanism and the threshold mechanism. In the reservation mechanism, some resources are available only to selected (predefined) services. However, when the threshold mechanism is used, the amount of resources allocated to individual classes depends on the network load. This article discusses simulation studies of the traffic characteristics of elastic optical network (EON) nodes with a Clos structure and implemented CAC mechanisms. In the article, the results obtained with the use of the simulator developed by the author were presented.","PeriodicalId":131597,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Broadband Communications for Next Generation Networks and Multimedia Applications (CoBCom)","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121790694","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}

IoT is becoming a core technology to bring smart homes, smart cities, and smart industries into reality. However, with potential benefits comes a challenge of sustainability, and one major concern is to minimize energy consumption. In a citywide area, managing the operation of such large-scale IoT networking is one of the complex tasks. One of the ways is to utilize dynamic sensing scheduling where the IoT device goes to the sleep mode and prevents unnecessary data transmission. In this paper, we propose a dynamic sensing (DynaSens) algorithm for an IoT-based waste management system. This algorithm helps to reduce the waste bin overflowing, thus, provides better sanitation, and it is also helpful in reducing the fuel cost of waste collection vehicles. Our work utilizes measured values such as current consumption, LiDAR measurement time, and LoRa transmission time as the input data for the simulation experiment to evaluate energy consumption. We also assessed DynaSens using a real dataset obtained from a recycling house. We use Pycom LoPy4 micro-controller as a development board. For a number of garbage-thrown scenarios, DynaSens enables longer battery longevity by reducing the repeated execution of the same tasks.","PeriodicalId":131597,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Broadband Communications for Next Generation Networks and Multimedia Applications (CoBCom)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125514634","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 the context of a bandlimited optical intensity link, achieved by a PAM scheme and squared raised cosine or squared double jump functions used for pulse shaping, feedforward algorithms for symbol timing estimation have been developed in recent papers published by the first author. This work is extended by the current contribution, where a feedback solution is discussed with no knowledge about data symbols. Such non-data-aided (blind) concepts are a perfect instrument to track smaller vari-ations of the timing error affecting the payload data. It is pro-posed that a Gardner detector is used for the recovery loop, which is investigated with respect to open-loop characteristic, jitter performance, and acquisition behavior.","PeriodicalId":131597,"journal":{"name":"2022 International Conference on Broadband Communications for Next Generation Networks and Multimedia Applications (CoBCom)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130978671","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}
