Conventionally, it is assumed that each AP serves all users. In this work, however, to lessen the computational and hardware costs, instead of serving all users, each AP serves limited number of them. We propose an algorithm for assigning users to each AP. Besides, we assume each AP is connected to a central processing unit (CPU) via limited capacity fronthaul link. To efficiently address the fronthaul capacity constraints, three strategies for sending signals from APs to the CPU are employed; namely: compress-forward-estimate (CFE), estimate-compress-forward (ECF), and estimate-multiply compress-forward (EMCF). We drive the capacity of the aforementioned systems with user management constraint. It is shown that the proposed user management improves the performance of the ECF and EMCF from both sum spectral efficiency (SE) and per user SE aspects.","PeriodicalId":254932,"journal":{"name":"2021 29th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEE)","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121259343","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 proposed method is not limited to the distributed-order ordinary differential equations and can be applied to the distributed-order partial differential equations, too. In fact, the proposed stability analysis method links stability of distributed-order systems to the stability of their integer-order counterparts.

Because the renewable energy systems' output voltage is low, dc-dc converters are generally utilized to produce high output voltage for industrial applications. There are many structures for boosting voltage, such as switched-capacitor (SC) or switched-inductor converters and using transformers. However, each of these converters has some drawbacks, such as high current or voltage spikes on power switches or diodes, transformer leakage inductances, and low efficiency. Combining the coupled-inductors and clamp circuits is a suitable solution to overcome high current and voltage spikes caused by stray inductances. This paper proposes a new soft-switching step-up converter based on an active network and coupled-inductor technique. Zero voltage switching (ZVS) of the main power MOSFETs reduce switching losses and EMI noises and increases the converter efficiency. Consequently, high switching frequency operation is possible to achieve high level of power density. The converter is simulated for wide output power (100 W-1 kW) and wide input voltage (40 V -100 V) to regulate the 400 V output voltage.","PeriodicalId":254932,"journal":{"name":"2021 29th Iranian Conference on Electrical Engineering (ICEE)","volume":"185 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115035222","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}

Fog architecture by extending computing to the edge of network, provides the ability to accurate and fast detection of abnormal patterns. The hierarchical fog computing architecture and the efficient hyperellipsoidal clustering algorithm presented in the previous studies have been applied in this paper to identify anomalous behaviors in water distribution grids. We created an urban water distribution grid dataset using Epanet2w simulator software by recording grid measured features as (pressure and head) for several scenarios. To evaluate the effect of applying the hierarchical anomaly detection model, we implemented the data and computing nodes at different layers by docker containers.

In this paper to overcome flickering issue, we used one of undersampled modulation named UPSOOK which enable us to modulate data with a frequency many times higher than the frame rate. Due to the presence of color filters in these sensors, the data transmission rate in OCC systems can be increased by using RGB LED and WDM.
