In countries such as India with low grid prices, energy firms are offering competitive PPA tariffs by setting up large solar farms. Given lower margins in operating these farms, there is great sensitivity to panels underperforming. To detect under-performance, existing condition monitoring methods compare generated power with an ideal yield calculated based on local weather conditions. Applying such...
In this paper we consider a heterogeneous DTN formed by different classes of nodes. A core problem in DTNs literature is to optimize forwarding control such in a way to deliver messages from source to destination under a given energy budget. In this context, we model the presence of different classes and describe the structure of the optimal solution. The closed form of an optimal policy is found...
We consider the effects of altruistic behavior on random medium access control (slotted ALOHA) for local area communication networks. For an idealized, synchronously iterative, two-player game with asymmetric player demands, we find a Lyapunov function governing the “better-response” Jacobi dynamics under purely altruistic behavior. Though the positions of the interior Nash equilibrium points do not...
In this paper, we are concerned with energy efficient area monitoring using information coverage in wireless sensor networks, where collaboration among multiple sensors can enable accurate sensing of a point in a given area-to-monitor even if that point falls outside the physical coverage of all the sensors. We refer to any set of sensors that can collectively sense all points in the entire area-to-monitor...
