The system consists of a perception subsystem, data transmission layer, IoT cloud platform, and application terminal. The differential pressure static level sensor transmits the sensor serial port raw data to the 4G DTU through the RS-485 bus interface. Then, the 4G DTU converts it into a 4G network and transmits the data to the IoT cloud platform via the MQTT protocol. The IoT cloud platform analyzes and processes the collected data to generate reports, visualize data to generate curves, and perform real-time anomaly identification on the data. Finally, it implements viewing of settlement monitoring data and curve changes, as well as monitoring status warnings at the application terminal. The practical engineering application results show that this system can provide effective safety monitoring and an early warning scheme for slope, tunnel, bridge, and building safety monitoring.","PeriodicalId":518077,"journal":{"name":"2024 26th International Conference on Advanced Communications Technology (ICACT)","volume":"73 ","pages":"01-05"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140528294","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 on-chip mmW antenna designed for the Ka-band utilizes standard Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology. In this design, the mmW antenna structure is formed by connecting the top layer (Metal6) and the bottom metal layer (Metal1) to reduce losses. Many architectures have been proposed for chip antennas to overcome the metal thickness during fabrication and improve the gain of chip antennas. Therefore, this paper proposes an on-chip antenna for the fifth-generation mobile communication millimeter-wave frequency band. Using high-frequency electromagnetic simulation software, the chip antenna exhibits a minimum return loss of -18dB at 31GHz and a peak gain of -7 dB. The measured reflection coefficient is below -10dB from 18.8 GHz to 32.5 GHz.","PeriodicalId":518077,"journal":{"name":"2024 26th International Conference on Advanced Communications Technology (ICACT)","volume":"15 2","pages":"01-04"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140528282","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 paper delves into the downlink power allocation of a NOMA-OTFS system with a frequency domain linear equalizer (FD-LE), where a high-speed user in delay-Doppler domain and multiple low-speed time-frequency domain NOMA users coexist. Considering the fairness of NOMA users, we optimize the minimum rate of the low-speed users, constrained by the quality of service (QoS) of the high-speed user. To address this problem, we propose an iterative power allocation optimization (IP-AO) strategy and obtain an accurate optimal solution based on the auxiliary variables by transforming the original non-convex problem into a convex one. Moreover, we derive a closed-form solution for the optimal power allocation (OPA). Simulation results validate the superiority of our schemes over traditional power allocation methods in maximizing the minimum user rate in the NOMA-OTFS vehicular system.","PeriodicalId":518077,"journal":{"name":"2024 26th International Conference on Advanced Communications Technology (ICACT)","volume":"32 2","pages":"01-06"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140528123","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}

Computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) methods have demonstrated the potential to handle accurate diagnostics using artificial intelligence techniques such as machine learning and deep learning. The nature of the data used in training the AI-based model determined the paradigm, often classified as supervised and unsupervised learning for scenarios with labeled and unlabeled data, respectively. Due to the cost of time and resources, most datasets are nowadays partially labeled and used for training. The weakly supervised learning approach enables the AI models to be trained with incompletely labeled, noisy, or imbalanced data. In recent years, multiple instance learning (MIL) has emerged as a promising weakly supervised learning approach in many fields, including cancer diagnosis. Unlike traditional supervised learning methods, MIL allows the classification of groups of instances, known as bags, where only the bag's label is available. This comprehensive review aims to provide an in-depth analysis of the applications of MIL in cancer diagnostic tasks, highlighting its advantages, challenges, and future directions. By examining these advantages, challenges, and future trends, the review aims to contribute to advancing MIL as a powerful tool in improving cancer diagnostic accuracy and patient outcomes.","PeriodicalId":518077,"journal":{"name":"2024 26th International Conference on Advanced Communications Technology (ICACT)","volume":"64 ","pages":"419-425"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140528314","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 research aims to showcase an evaluation method to test an integrated mobile and web application for gathering valuable feedback from Filipinos nationwide. This application, named “BOSESKO: Building on Opinions and Sentiments for Sustainability and Knowledge Opportunities” - a multilingual, inclusive, deliberative, synoptic, digital participatory toolkit, is intended to act as a central hub to solicit insights on both existing and upcoming policies in the Philippines. AppTest pertains to a comprehensive evaluation of the BosesKo software system. This research hopes to identify the strengths and weaknesses of BOSESKO and improve it, which would serve as a tool to potentially enhance civic engagement in the country by actively involving the general public in policy-making. This study employed a mixed-method approach that seamlessly integrates manual and automated testing techniques. The assessment of BOSESKO is aligned with the ISO 25010 standard, focusing on evaluating usability and performance efficiency. To delve into the usability of BOSESKO, a usability survey was administered to gauge user perspectives on (a) learnability, (b) appropriateness, (c) recognizability, (d) operability, (e) error protection, (f) user interface aesthetics, and (g) accessibility. Additionally, in-depth performance evaluations were conducted using various automated tools, including WebPageTest, PageSpeed Insight, Google Lighthouse, Yellow Lab, and Pingdom. This combination of manual and computerized methodologies provided a robust and thorough analysis of BOSESKO and, in turn, offered valuable insights into the functionality and efficiency of the developed system. As of the time of this writing, about 10,500 users across the Philippines have already engaged with BOSESKO. Initial assessment results of BOSESKO revealed an acceptable user rating with an average weighted mean of 4.36 in terms of usability. Meanwhile, the applied automated tests yielded positive performance scores of 89% and 76% for the web and mobile platforms. However, the evaluation results suggest image and search engine optimization. Overall, these results underscore the robust foundation established by BOSESKO, indicating its considerable potential and strong starting point.","PeriodicalId":518077,"journal":{"name":"2024 26th International Conference on Advanced Communications Technology (ICACT)","volume":"18 9","pages":"241-247"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140528273","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}
