COPE has been the first network coding scheme designed for unicast traffic in wireless networks. COPE-based network coding-aware routing optimization has been proposed to improve network performances. However, it is interesting to study network coding-aware routing optimization using other network coding schemes to analyze the impact of coding conditions. In this paper, we study the problem of network coding-aware routing optimization using BEND, an extension of COPE. We model the coding structures of BEND and integrate them into the routing optimization problem. The simulation results show that BEND-aware routing can improve network throughput by creating more coding structures than COPE.","PeriodicalId":142783,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC)","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127267017","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}

Moreover, incremental relaying technique is also used to enhance spectrum efficiency. For performance evaluation and comparison, we drive exact and asymptotic closed-form expressions of outage probability over Rayleigh fading channel. Finally, Monte Carlo simulations are presented to verify the analytical derivations.","PeriodicalId":142783,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC)","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125077281","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}

The receiver is based on differential switched 4-path passive mixer architecture. The sampling frequency fixes the carrier frequency of the received signal and a simple RC time constant determines the receiver bandwidth. The mixer structure permits to implement flexible high-Q band-pass filters at the RF side. This receiver has improved linearity and is robust to strong out-of-band blockers and adjacent channel interferences. A wide-band 15 dB gain LNA permits to achieve a noise figure less than 4 dB between 400 MHz and 1.5 GHz. The measured sensitivity is -83 dBm with an overall gain of 55 dB over the chain. The IIP3 of the receiver is -22.7 dBm and the power consumption is 45.7 mW under a 1.2V power supply voltage. The IC receiver has been designed in a 130nm CMOS process.

Especially, solving the regression and classification, Gaussian process coupling with Bayesian learning is one of the most appropriate supervised learning approaches in terms of accuracy and tractability. Unfortunately, this combination tolerates high complexity from computation and data storage. Obviously, this limitation makes Gaussian process ill-equipped to deal with the systems requiring fast response time. In this paper, the research focuses on analyzing the performance issue of Gaussian process, developing a method to reduce the complexity and implementing to predict CPU utilization, which is used as a factor to predict the status of computing node. Subsequently, a migration mechanism is applied so as to migrate the system-level processes between CPU cores and turn off the idle ones in order to save the energy while still maintaining the performance.","PeriodicalId":142783,"journal":{"name":"2015 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC)","volume":"436 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128374674","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}

Besides, a modified dynamic latch with driving simultaneously gate and bulk terminals are also presented in this work. The whole of SAR ADC is designed and simulated in 180nm CMOS process with the structure based on the conventional architecture but reduced the capacitor array mismatch by using separated clock frequencies to control simultaneously comparator and SAR combination logic. Thus, this design works with the clock frequency of 0.5 GHz achieving a maximum sampling rate at 25 MS/s and 1.8V supply voltage.
