Compartmental model is the sum of two exponentials which describe the variation of received signal strength with transmitter-receiver distance.

The source coding technique exploits high temporal correlation between sensor data by first appropriately interleaving the bits of two consecutive sensor data values and then representing every two consecutive bits of this interleaved dual message by one of four symbol values so that the overall message length is reduced by a factor of two. After that, any occurrence of the same symbol value in consecutive positions of this string is replaced by a null symbol. The transmitter is kept silent during the periods of these null symbols following the strategy of silent communication to save transmitter energy. We propose a hybrid modulation / demodulation technique using non-coherent frequency-shift keying (FSK) and amplitude-shift keying (ASK) to implement this communication scheme, termed as Compression with Multiple Null Symbols (CMNS). From simulation results with various real-life sensor data, we find that CMNS provides transmitter energy savings ranging from 73.16% to 46.6% and receiver energy saving of 50% over conventional BFSK. When compared with other existing schemes, we see from simulation with all these sensor data sets that CMNS provides an improvement over Quint Fibonacci Number System (QFNS), the best known similar scheme, in transmitter energy savings ranging from 9.96% to 113.46% and an improvement in receiver energy savings ranging from 4.85% to 27.94%. These results establish that our proposed scheme is very suitable for multihop communication in low cost wireless sensor network applications.","PeriodicalId":273443,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommunications Systems (ANTS)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114975073","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 exchange of information among devices is getting more massive day by day, putting a strain on current technologies and leading to the scarcity of radio-frequency (RF) spectrum. IoT foresees the extensive use of visible light communication (VLC) technology. The implementation of a VLC link on communication interfaces of existing computers and smartphones saves energy by using energy efficient LEDs and existing infrastructure. Transferring data between two laptops or two mobiles using visible light is in its infancy, and extensive research is going on to bring Light-Fidelity (Li-Fi) in every day IoT. Universal asynchronous receiver/transmitter (UART) is a global standard used for computer communication. Integrating visible light communication between two laptops via UART is a useful application for IoT devices while in case of mobile the existence of flashlight in the back and light detector in the front is made use for the communication. The work aims to perform point-to-point communication using visible light between off-the-shelf devices such as two laptops and two mobiles. A reliable working prototype of the system having transmitter and receiver is designed and built for both the cases. Real-time transfer of data such as alphabets, words, text and image are done via a graphical user interface (GUI) in laptop and app in mobile. Letter error rate analysis is also performed with respect to various parameters.","PeriodicalId":273443,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommunications Systems (ANTS)","volume":"76 10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129920496","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, generalized kernel maximum correntropy (GKMC) algorithm has been proposed in the literature which adopts generalized Gaussian probability density function (GPDF) as the cost function in order to train the filter weights. Recently, a more flexible and computationally efficient algorithm called maximum Versoria criterion (MVC) which adopts the generalized Versoria function as the adaptation cost has been proposed in the literature which delivers better performance as compared to the maximum correntropy criterion. In this paper, we propose a novel generalized kernel maximum Versoria criterion (GKMVC) algorithm which combines the advantages of RKHS based approaches and MVC algorithm. Further, a novelty criterion based dictionary sparsification technique as suggested for kernel least mean square (KLMS) algorithm is proposed for GKMVC algorithm for reducing its computational complexity. Furthermore, an analytical upper bound on step-size is also derived in order to ensure the convergence of the proposed algorithm. Simulations are performed over various non-Gaussian noise distributions which indicate that the proposed GKMVC algorithm exhibits superior performance in terms of lower steady-state error floor as compared to the existing algorithms, namely the KLMS and the GKMC algorithms.","PeriodicalId":273443,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommunications Systems (ANTS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116321398","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}

Flexible solutions employ new technologies such as bandwidth-variable optical cross connects (BV-OXC) with liquid crystal (LCoS) wavelength-selective switches (WSS), sliceable bandwidth-variable transponders (SBVT), etc. in a flex-grid network. Flex-grid network operates on variable spectral granularities (e.g., 12.5 GHz), and higher modulation formats (quadrature amplitude modulation). However, a greenfield deployment of flex-grid technologies may not be practical, due to cost of technology and usability. This leads to a brown-field network where both fixed-grid and flex-grid technologies co-exist with seamless interoperability. Thus traditional traffic routing and resource allocation techniques need to evolve in a mixed-grid infrastructure. Our study considers the dynamic routing and spectrum assignment (RSA) problem in a fixed/flex-grid co-existing optical network. It provisions routes for dynamic, heterogeneous traffic, ensuring maximum spectrum utilization and minimum blocking.","PeriodicalId":273443,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommunications Systems (ANTS)","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128275031","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}

It may require more energy to transmit the data in single hop communication because sometimes distance between sensor and coordinator is large. Instead of direct transmission far away sensor node uses relay sensor to forward the data for more reliable communication with less energy consumption. The position of relay sensor node depends on the situation of body i.e. moving or stationary. Transmission path of the faraway sensor node is varying because of relay choice. In this paper, we have proposed the algorithm for path selection based on the utilization factor. However, the CSMA/CA (carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance) techniques for IEEE 802.15.6 is used to access the channel. We have compared the moving and stationary body scenario in terms of QoS parameters such as total energy consumption, total delay, packet delivery ratio and throughput. Total energy consumption is more and total delay is less in moving body. Packet delivery ratio and throughput are more in stationary body.","PeriodicalId":273443,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommunications Systems (ANTS)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132742939","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}

We begin by charting out the vision of the smart campus, focusing on how IoT technologies can benefit various stakeholders including students, staff, and estate managers. Our second contribution outlines a systematic approach to the architecture of a smart-campus, that horizontally separates the sensing, data storage, and analytics layers. We show that our approach prevents vertical lock-in to any IoT vendor, scales to arbitrary number and type of sensors, and permits analytics across data silos. Lastly, we describe our pilot IoT deployments pertaining to four use-cases on our campus, specifically classroom attendance, student study space usage, parking lot occupancy, and bus-stop wait-times. The data and preliminary insights obtained from these deployments provide quantifiable benefits to stakeholders, such as improved space usage and enhanced user experience.","PeriodicalId":273443,"journal":{"name":"2018 IEEE International Conference on Advanced Networks and Telecommunications Systems (ANTS)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132821293","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}
