The antenna consists of three radiator patches whose optimal parameters are iteratively selected on different configurations using Genetic Algorithm (GA). PIN-diodes are used in appropriate locations to accurately control the operating frequency bands. Simulation results show that depending on ON/OFF states of the PIN-diodes, the antenna can operate in six applicable frequency bands i.e., 1.8 GHz, 2.1 GHz, 2.4 GHz, 3.5 GHz, 3.7 GHz and 5.8 GHz with corresponding peak gains of 3.34 dBi, 2.8 dBi, 5.16 dBi, 3.95 dBi, 5.05 dBi and 6.98 dBi, respectively. The efficiency of the six frequency bands is spread from 64% to 96%. The overall size of the radiated parts is 42.5×20 mm2 which makes it easy and possible to be integrated into small wireless handsets. Measurements have also been carried out on a fabricated prototype in order to validate the correctness our design.","PeriodicalId":225413,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC)","volume":"4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133190518","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}

This uses multiple frequencies for producing images, leading to large computational complexity and storage space (i.e. for each frequency, NtNrN2 calculations are required). It is a main barrier that the FH-DBIM approach is not fully exploited in commercialized devices. Therefore, in this paper, we propose an alternative algorithm for significant reducing the computational complexity of the FH-DBIM by integrating compressed sensing and frequency hopping techniques for the DBIM. That is, the needed number of measurements for imaging is tremendously reduced in comparison with the conventional one. The proposed algorithm - CS-FH-DBIM-offers a new prospect for being able to image high-resolution images at the level of biological tissues in practice.","PeriodicalId":225413,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126420291","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}

This increases the flexibility of the HIL test setup and opens up new possibilities for testing automotive ECUs or autonomous driving systems. The proposed wireless communication gateway system adopts the robust physical layer IEEE 802.11p and is designed for operation in the 2.4 GHz industrial, scientific, and medical frequency (ISM) frequency band. To achieve compliance with the European regulations on spectrum access in this unlicensed band and to enable the bidirectional deterministic transfer of CoDiCa data, a new adaptive spectrum access procedure and time-slotted communication scheme is introduced. Based on extensive link-level simulations it is demonstrated that the introduced approach is able to meet the required real-time performance and hence is suitable to be applied for novel HIL test applications.","PeriodicalId":225413,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127355112","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}

An adaptive scheme for the RBF neural network is developed to approximate unknown system functions and to estimate disturbances consisting of both approximation errors and external disturbances. An adaptive law is then applied to update the parameters of controller instead of choosing fixed controller's parameters which are coefficients of Hurwitz polynomial. Thanks to Lyapunov's theory, asymptotic stability is established with the tracking errors converging to a neighborhood of the origin.

Closed-form expressions for end-to-end outage probability and bit error rate are analytically formulated, taking into account the physical layer impairments from both FSO and RF links as well as the receiver noise. The numerical results show the feasibility of using network-coded two-way relaying in dual-hop mixed FSO/RF systems.

Although this can surely extend its potentials, it also suffers from unstable and unreliable communication environments. As concerns this, a broadcast-based routing protocol called opportunistic routing (OR) has been proposed. ORs do not establish any specific route from a source terminal to a destination terminal unlike conventional unicast routing protocols. This characteristic contributes to obtain path diversity and improves end-to-end reliability with multiple forwarding paths. However, the metrics to select appropriate forwarders to a destination terminal greatly affect its performance and grasp of comprehensive terminal status still remains as an issue to be discussed. In this paper, we propose a hierarchical opportunistic routing with stability information of terminals to enable more efficient and reliable forwarding in ad hoc networks to address the issue. The performance evaluation shows that the proposed method has better performance than the conventional protocols.","PeriodicalId":225413,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Advanced Technologies for Communications (ATC)","volume":"69 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127910124","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 particular, for the PRS-1 scheme, the best relay that assists the source-to-destination communication is selected based on the first-hop channel-state-information (CSI) whereas for the PRS-2 scheme, the best relay is selected based on the second-hop CSI.
