Energy harvesting technology is used to obtain energy from RF signals to achieve the simultaneous transmission of information and energy. At the same time, the interference signal is converted into energy to supply energy for energy-limited node devices. Further, through the power splitting protocol (PSR), the relay divides the received RF signal into two parts according to a certain power split factor, one for energy harvesting and the other for information processing. Besides, this paper presents an optimal power allocation algorithm based on maximum sum rate. Finally, the performance advantages of the proposed scheme are verified by MATLAB simulation.","PeriodicalId":345344,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 5th International Symposium on Telecommunication Technologies (ISTT)","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117280923","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 communication subsystem link the CubeSat to the Ground Sensor Terminal (GST) through VHF frequency. Thus, an effective Link Budget analysis study is important to guarantee the communication can be established appropriately to minimize the signal losses and achieve the minimum connection requirement between the CubeSat and GST. The proposed link budget calculates the attenuation parameters such as satellite slant distance, Free-space Path Loss (FSPL), antenna polarization loss and others to make sure the communication link can be established properly.

One of the new features, mentioned as the Restricted AccessWindow (RAW), focuses on enhancing scalability in extremely dense deployments. RAW divides stations into groups and reduces contention and collisions by permitting channel access to one group at a time. However, the standard does not mandate any optimum RAW grouping strategy. Existing station grouping schemes for enhanced throughput and Quality of Service (QoS) considered a fixed number of groups, though it is one of the important factors in determining the overall throughput. In this paper, we have proposed a real-time grouping scheme non-constrained on the number of groups for homogeneous periodic traffic with the same QoS. The proposed scheme uses Agglomerative Hierarchical Clustering for station grouping where fairness and throughput are used as metrics for distance measure and level selection. Level throughput is estimated from its clusters(groups), using a Neural Network regressor with a 3-dimensional input vector. Evaluation of the network is done after every beacon interval and optimum station grouping and group parameters are broadcasted before the start of a next beacon interval. The proposed model was tested against uniform grouping and random grouping, an improvement of 20%, and 50% in the normalized throughput was observed. Fairness ratio of 0.945 was achieved with the proposed model.","PeriodicalId":345344,"journal":{"name":"2020 IEEE 5th International Symposium on Telecommunication Technologies (ISTT)","volume":"2 8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114569677","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}

D2D communication, one the key enabling technology of 5G, makes use of devices in the vicinity for resources utilization, reducing latency, improving data rates and increasing system capacity. The integration of multi-hop and cellular networks not only delivers reliability and Quality of Service (QoS) but also make the network adaptable and flexible. In next-generation multi-hop cellular D2D networks, clustering and routing are presents significant challenges. Therefore, if the clustering and routing decisions are not appropriately implemented, multi-hop network performance can be worse as compared to the traditional network. This is because clustering and routing play a significant role to manage network fragmentation and dynamic network topology, which are not present in a traditional cellular network. In this paper, we propose a clustering scheme based on game theory (i.e., mixed strategy) to select optimal cluster heads (CHs) and transmit data from a cluster head (CH) to base station (BS). The simulation results show that our proposed scheme is better than LEACH protocol in terms of a network lifetime and energy consumption.

Using the Fractional Frequency Reuse (FFR) concept can be one of the good solutions to manage this interference. This paper proposes an FFR scheme for LTE-A femtocell networks to handle the downlink cross-tier interference, generated between macro-cells and femtocells, in order to increase the Signal-to-Interference and Noise Ratio (SINR) and improve the overall network performance. The simulation results obtained by MATLAB reveal the superiority of the proposed-FFR scheme over the non-FFR one; as both SINR and user throughput have been enhanced.
