In this paper, we analyze and investigate the molecular communication network consisting of single transmitter and receiver nanomachines with the same type of carrier molecule. This communication takes place over an intelligent agent that aggregates the sensed data and simplify the complexity of the relaying algorithms to assist our communication channel, in which intermediate agent do not attempt to decode the information. This paper will describe a novel architecture to support the cooperative decision process by utilizing an intelligent agent in combination with pulse energy ratio and the sense-and-release technique. Furthermore, the inter-symbol interference (ISI) problem and reception noise are considered. The results illustrate that IADSS scheme is the powerful technique in improving the BER performance up to 10dB SNR gain compared to the State-of-the-Art relaying schemes. As a result, this scheme can be substantially reduced the complexity of the receiver's threshold-based detection strategy. Finally, experimental results show that the MC throughput of the entire network is greatly increased by exploiting the benefit of the cooperative intelligent agent with the sense-and-release technique.","PeriodicalId":329966,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Communication Networks (CICN)","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121102979","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 practice, when there is an access collision, the access point (AP) can still decode the corresponding data successfully if the received signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) is larger than a threshold. This phenomenon is called capture effect. To improve the system throughput, this work proposes a power control algorithm to take the advantage of capture effect. However, the proposed power control scheme cannot provide a fair transmission environment even though the system throughput increases. Therefore, this work also presents a method to adaptively adjust the transmission probability of each station in the contention window (CW) for fair transmission. In addition, this work adopts the non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) technique to further improve system throughput. The simulation results show that the proposed schemes can not only improve system throughput significantly, but also provide a fairer transmission environment.","PeriodicalId":329966,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Communication Networks (CICN)","volume":"17 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124810499","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}

Prior research has shown that by forming \"human swarms,\" networked groups can substantially amplify their combined intelligence and produce significantly more accurate forecasts than traditional methods. The present study explores whether the rich behavioral data collected during \"swarming\" can be used to further increase the accuracy of swarm-based forecasts. To do this, a dense neural network was used to process the data collected during a set of swarm-based forecasts and generate a Conviction Index (CI) for each forecast that estimates its expected accuracy. This method was then tested in an authentic forecasting task – wagering on sporting events against the Vegas odds. Specifically, groups of sports fans, working as real-time swarms, were tasked with predicting the outcome of 238 NBA games over 25 consecutive weeks. As a baseline, the swarms achieved an impressive 25% net return on investment (ROI) against the Vegas Odds. This was compared to an enhanced method that used Conviction Index to (a) estimate the strength of each forecast and then (b) wager only on forecasts of sufficient strength. The CI-selected wagers yielded a 57% net ROI against Vegas Odds. This is a significant gain, equivalent to more than doubling the ROI of the naïve swarm betting strategy.","PeriodicalId":329966,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Communication Networks (CICN)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126130113","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 is partly due to the changing dynamics of employees as the need for ubiquity and mobility continues to rise. In their attempt to reduce cost of doing business, organizations are gradually shifting to the use of their underlying Local Area Networks (LANs) for telephony services using Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP). In this paper, we study the Quality of Service (QoS) of VoIP in 802.11ac networks under varying networking conditions. We measured various QoS metrics Throughput, Jitter, Latency, Loss Ratio and Mean Observed Score (MOS) using an Extended Service Set (ESS) testbed with IPv4 and IPv6 as network layer protocols. Our result shows a degradation in VoIP quality when background traffic increases. IPv6 VoIP calls had a better Quality compared to IPv4 calls. Security enhancements negatively affected call quality regardless of network layer protocol used. Performance improvements for IPv6 relative to IPv4 calls range between 3% and 30% depending on the QoS metric.","PeriodicalId":329966,"journal":{"name":"2019 11th International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Communication Networks (CICN)","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133335870","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 independent DL and UL frame structure in each cell will be useful for the varying traffic condition, especially when the number of active users is highly limited, e.g., in a small cell. However, the dynamic TDD scheme suffers from cross-link interference (CLI) incurred by DL and UL transmission at the same time in the adjacent cells, respectively. In this paper, we consider a user-slot mapping scheme that combines both static and dynamic features of TDD slot allocation into a beam angle-ordered, or joint SINR and beam angle-ordered arrangement, so that CLI be naturally handled without resorting to any sophisticated system-wide optimization process in full dimension MIMO system.

This problem can be, however, avoided by detecting electrically neutral particles, such as neutrinos, which are created by the UHECR particles in interactions during propagation. Due to the very low cross section of the neutrinos, the detection technique requires a very sophisticated algorithm.Our trigger algorithm is based on an analysis of signal shapes by an artificial neural network (ANN). This approach can efficiently separate air showers which started at the top of the atmosphere (\"old\" showers) from air showers initiated very close to detection level, which can be potentially initiated by neutrinos (\"young\" showers).
