This paper investigates decentralized control structures for absorption cycle heat pumps and a dynamic nonlinear model of a single-effect LiBr-water absorption system is used as case study. The model has four controllable inputs, which can be used to stabilize the operation of the heat pump under different load conditions. Different feasible input-output pairings are analyzed by computation of relative...
A canonical scenario in Machine-Type Communications (MTC) is the one featuring a large number of devices, each of them with sporadic traffic. Hence, the number of served devices in a single LTE cell is not determined by the available aggregate rate, but rather by the limitations of the LTE access reservation protocol. Specifically, the limited number of contention preambles and the limited amount...
Due to the availability of sattelite- and radio-based location systems in most new devices, it is possible to use geographical location of a node for network management and communication protocol optimization. It is a common belief that usage of location information can bring performance benefits. However, inaccuracy and delay in obtaining such information, together with an associated overhead, can...
In this paper, we investigate the performance of centralized cooperative positioning algorithms. Compared to traditional positioning algorithms which solely exploit ranging information from anchor nodes, cooperative positioning additionally uses measurements from peer-to-peer links between the users. Since we are proposing a centralized architecture, all information has to be collected at a central...
QT interval prolongation is one of the most common causes of delays and non-approvals in drug development due to the qualitative relationship between this interval and Torsade de Pointes (TdP) arrhythmia. However, not all drugs that prolong the QT interval to the same extent carry the same risk for TdP. Other indications, such as abnormal T-wave morphology, may play a role in differentiating between...
This paper describes a hybrid AOA/TODA mobile station (MS) location estimation method based on the CDMA wireless communications signals. The method utilized estimates the angle of arrival (AOA) and time difference of arrival (TDOA) of downlink pilot channel. In this paper, signal parameter estimations including AOA and TDOA, and position estimation challenges in real wireless communications systems...
