Such interference makes it difficult to support QoS. It is desirable that BSSs can share a single frequency channel without interference and at the same time, QoS is supported. Additional functionalities particularly in MAC layer are required to achieve interference-free for a business- sound wireless deployment. In this paper, we present a detailed analysis on OBSS interference, caused by overlapping, in relation to MAC functions and propose a resources coordination scheme to support OBSS co-existence and QoS, based on the context of 802.11 WiFi as an example. The uplink and downlink transmission are separated into two periods. The grouping assignments using coloring theory are carried out based on the topology to divide BSSs into groups and time span to avoid downlink collision.","PeriodicalId":243397,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE-RIVF International Conference on Computing and Communication Technologies","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123149712","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}

Whereas, a data obtain from an ultrasonic tomography in transmission mode is not able to be used for reconstruction a characteristic image of soft tissue which naturally shadowed by a bone or hard tissue. An ultrasonic tomography in reflection mode is realized to be a solution for this problem. However the implementation to identify the projection by using an integrated attenuation coefficient of tissue from the pulsed wave ray path in reflection mode is still more complicated. In this paper, we propose a simulation in 2D of a reflection-mode ultrasonic tomographic system by using the linear array transducer and also a frequency centroid shift method to calculate the projection data. The imaging setup system was enhanced by wave reflecting plate in order to increase an echo wave path. The ultrasound wave paths of our simulation system were intend to focus on the fan beam trajectory which is rather close to a real propagation of the ultrasound wave travelling through soft tissue and ART was used finally as an image reconstruction algorithm. The obtained output shows that our system is more practical and possible toward for using in a clinical trial.","PeriodicalId":243397,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE-RIVF International Conference on Computing and Communication Technologies","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130100400","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, we present an assessment of current mobile IPv6 performance by the means of the network simulator ns-2 and its extension MOBIWAN. Three different tests have been carried out with different traffic types on different network topologies. We investigate several parameters regarding to QoS such as: packet loss, delay, jitter, handover latency and signaling load to see how they are impacted by the routing strategies, by the medium properties, by the complexity of the topology, and by the behavior of mobile user. Our simulation results show that: i) the use of route optimization prevents the congestion at the home agent and home link of mobile node but higher bandwidth may be required. Furthermore, the improvement of network performance could be significant for only some specific circumstances; ii) when the wired link delay is increased, the binding update latency is also higher which leads to more packet losses during the handover process; iii) in the route optimization mode, the maximum jitter measured from all tests is about 12 ms on average, which is acceptable; iv) with our tested configurations, the binding update latency for the VoIP traffic is about 300 ms which is quite high but still lower than the allowed bound.","PeriodicalId":243397,"journal":{"name":"2009 IEEE-RIVF International Conference on Computing and Communication Technologies","volume":"49 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-07-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134218378","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}

These two channels of EMG signals were performed a blind signal separation by using an independent component analysis (ICA) technique. The well known ICA algorithm called FASTICA is a useful method to separate two or more linear combination of source signals into statistically independent components. We purposed a novel features for the EMG contraction classification. Our feature is derived from the application of time-frequency analysis of the EMG signal followed by the computation of Eigen vector of the time-frequency magnitude spectrum. Our feature is the ratio between the two Eigen values. We have shown the robustness of our features for a variety of muscular contraction.
