This document discusses the effect of soft handover parameters on the performance of CDMA cellular networks. It analyzes how two soft handover parameters, HYST_ADD and HYST_DROP, impact the mean active set size and soft handover region. The study finds that increasing these parameters causes the mean active set size and soft handover region to increase as well. Larger values mean more base stations are kept in the active set and communication is maintained over a wider region, but it also increases interference and network load. The soft handover parameters therefore need to be tuned appropriately to balance communication quality and network performance.
An ann based call handoff management scheme for mobile cellular networkijwmn
Handoff decisions are usually signal strength based because of simplicity and effectiveness. Apart from the
conventional techniques, such as threshold and hysteresis based schemes, recently many artificial
intelligent techniques such as Fuzzy Logic, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) etc. are also used for taking
handoff decision. In this paper, an Artificial Neural Network based handoff algorithm is proposed and it’s
performance is studied. We have used ANNhere for taking fast and accurate handoff decision. In our
proposed handoff algorithm, Backpropagation Neural Network model is used.The advantages of
Backpropagation method are its simplicity and reasonable speed. The algorithm is designed, tested and
found to give optimum results.
This paper investigates about the possibility to reduce power consumption in Neural Network using approximated computing techniques. Authors compare a traditional fixed-point neuron with an approximated neuron composed of approximated multipliers and adder. Experiments show that in the proposed case of study (a wine classifier) the approximated neuron allows to save up to the 43% of the area, a power consumption saving of 35% and an improvement in the maximum clock frequency of 20%.

This paper considers ergodic capacity of energy harvesting (EH) based cellular networks. Such a network employs non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) together with relaying scheme to serve two far users. In this system model, relay is facilitated power splitting (PS) protocol to implement energy harvesting (EH). To examine capacity, expressions of signal to noise ratio (SNR) need be computed to achieve capacity. Power allocation factors are different for two users in such system and hence performance gap happens to distinguish requirements for separated users. It can be confirmed that the proposed paradigm exhibits maximal achievable capacity in some scenarios of setting parameters. To confirm exactness of the analytical expressions and show advantages of the proposed EH-NOMA, simulation results are performed in terms of ergodic capacity.

Rabid Euclidean direction search algorithm for various adaptive array geometriesjournalBEEI
One of the exciting technologies used to meet the increasing demand for wireless communication services is a smart antenna. A smart antenna is basically confirmed by an array of antennas and a digital beamformer unit through which cellular base station can direct the beam toward the desired user and set nulls toward interfering users. In this paper, different array configurations (linear, circular, and planer) with the REDS algorithm are implemented in the digital beam-forming unit. The wireless system performance is investigated to check the smart antenna potentials assuming Rayleigh fading channel environment beside the AWGN channel. Results show how the REDS algorithm offers a significant improvement through antenna radiation pattern optimization, sidelobe level, and interference reduction, and also the RDES algorithm proves fast convergence with minimum MSE and better sidelobe level reduction comparing with other algorithms.
Localization of Objects using Stochastic TunnelingRana Basheer
A novel wireless localization scheme in the three dimensional domain that employs stochastic optimization with tunneling transformation to recursively estimate the location of wireless tags in a network from pair wise signal strength measurements. Spatially co-located wireless tags, receiving signals from a common transmitter, exhibit correlation in their Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) values. Hence in a network of wireless tags, with pair wise correlation coefficients available, posterior distribution of the unknown tag separation is used to relatively localize them using maximum a posteriori (MAP) Estimator. However, due to the non-convex/non-tractable nature of this posterior distribution, deterministic optimization methods will end in one of the many local maxima unless the initial guess is close to the region of attraction of the global maximum. In this paper, a novel stochastic localization method called LOCalization Using Stochastic Tunneling (LOCUST) is proposed which utilizes constrained simulated annealing with tunneling transformation to solve this non-tractable posterior distribution. The tunneling transformation allows the optimization search operation to circumvent or “tunnel” through ill-shaped regions in the posterior distribution resulting in faster convergence to global maximum. Finally, simulation results of our localization method are presented
An Energy Efficient and High Speed Image Compression System Using Stationary ...rahulmonikasharma
Image compression is one of the interesting domains nowadays in all areas of research. Everybody working with huge of amount of data in their daily life. In-order to deal with such huge amount of data, there is a need to store and compress the data. So there is a need to develop a system to compress and store the data. JPEG 2000 is a system to achieve this object. In this paper an area efficient and high speed JPEG2000 architecture has been developed to compress the image data. To implement JPEG2000 system, here a transform called stationary wavelet transform has been used. Stationary wavelet transform reduces the bottlenecks existing in the wavelet transform. Stationary wavelet transform avoids the problem of invariance-translation of the already existing discrete wavelet transform. The proposed stationary wavelet transform based JPEG2000 improves the speed and efficiency of power compared to the discrete wavelet transform based JPEG2000. Many image compression applications such as tele-medicine, satellite imaging, medical imaging require high-speed, low power compression techniques with small chip area. This paper has an analysis on the speed of JPEG2000 using stationary wavelet transform and it will be compared theoretically and practically with the JPEG2000 using discrete wavelet transform. The amount of information missing in the test image usually been very small when compared to the DWT based JPEG2000.The MSE and PSNR values proved to be better when compared to the DWT based JPEG2000. The proposed SWT based JPEG2000 compresses and decompresses the image at a faster rate than the DWT based JPEG2000.Finally the design will be implemented in XILINX Virtex-4 FPGA Kit. .The power consumption of the proposed method proved to be 290mW compared to other types of compression techniques.

The placement of base stations in wireless sensor networks affect the energy consumption for
communication between sensor node and base station. In this paper we analyzed the performance of the
zone based clustering protocol [2] under varying position of base stations, different zone sizes and the
effect on network life time with multiple base stations. While evaluating the communication overhead of
various cluster sizes, we observed that the optimal cluster size for a given network is complex, depending
on a range of parameters. Simulation results show that communication overhead decreases as we increase
the number of zone in the network. We show that placing multiple base stations in place of single base
station in zone based routing protocol enhance the network life time.

Cross-layer Design of an Asymmetric Loadpower Control Protocol in Ad hoc Netw...IDES Editor
Cross-layer design is important in wireless ad hoc
network and the power control methods. Power control is the
intelligent selection of transmit power in a communication to
achieve the better performance within the system. Cross-layer
is used to sharing the information between the layers. CLD
using LOADPOWER (LOADPOW) control protocol is reduce
the overall end-end delay in transmission power. So many
power control schemes are dealt in network layer but this
work Power control protocol was done in MAC layer and it
plays a vital role. A MAC approach to power control only does
a local optimization whereas network layer is capable of a
global optimization. Simulation was done in NS-2 simulator
with the performance metrics as throughput, and energy
consumption and end-end delay. The key concept is to improve
the throughput, saves energy by sending all the packets with
optimal transmit power according to the network load,
transmission power was given, when the network load is low,
higher transmission power gives lower end-end delay and viceversa.
Power consumption is an important metric tool in the context of the wireless sensor networks
(WSNs). In this paper, we described a new Energy-Degree (EDD) Clustering Algorithm for the
WSNs. A node with higher residual energy and higher degree is more likely elected as a
clusterhead (CH). The intercluster and intracluster communications are realized on one hop.
The principal goal of our algorithm is to optimize the energy power and energy load among all
nodes. By comparing EDD clustering algorithm with LEACH algorithm, simulation results
have showen its effectiveness in saving energy.
Performance of symmetric and asymmetric links in wireless networks IJECEIAES
Wireless networks are designed to provide the enabling infrastructure for emerging technological advancements. The main characteristics of wireless networks are: Mobility, power constraints, high packet loss, and lower bandwidth. Nodes’ mobility is a crucial consideration for wireless networks, as nodes are moving all the time, and this may result in loss of connectivity in the network. The goal of this work is to explore the effect of replacing the generally held assumption of symmetric radii for wireless networks with asymmetric radii. This replacement may have a direct impact on the connectivity, throughput, and collision avoidance mechanism of mobile networks. The proposed replacement may also impact other mobile protocol’s functionality. In this work, we are mainly concerned with building and maintaining fully connected wireless network with the asymmetric assumption. For this extent, we propose to study the effect of the asymmetric links assumption on the network performance using extensive simulation experiments. Extensive simulation experiments were performed to measure the impact of these parameters. Finally, a resource allocation scheme for wireless networks is proposed for the dual rate scenario. The performance of the proposed framework is evaluated using simulation.
Directional couplers are widely used as passive and active optical devices in fibre and integrated optics, and form the basis of components such as switches, modulators and wavelength filters. They consist of two closely-spaced parallel waveguides, whose separation is sufficiently small that power may be transferred between the modes propagating in the two guides through an interaction involving their evanescent fields. In this paper results are presented for a range of near infrared single mode silica directional couplers fabricated by electron beam irradiation. The effects of over cladding layers will be highlighted. Changes on coupling coefficient due to different cladding refractive indexes will also be examined. The coupled mode theory will be employed to fit the experimental results with prediction by theory. It is found that over cladding layer alters the transmission characteristics of silica directional couplers.

Transistor mismatch effect on common-mode gain of cross-coupled amplifierTELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In this paper, the analytical approach of MOS transistor mismatch effect on common-mode gain
of cross-coupled amplifier is presented. Transconductance (MOS transistor parameter) mismatch effect on
common-mode gain of cross-coupled amplifier was analyzed. This study was started with mathematical
derivation for representing the mismatch effect of transconductance between 2 differential pairs of crosscoupled
amplifier due to common-mode voltage. The derivation result was simulated based on Monte
Carlo simulation with random transconductance mismatch rate from 0.05% until 1%. The common-mode
gain increases 36.9 dB and average common-mode gain is -81.1 dB. The transconductance mismatch rate
increases followed by increase in common-mode gain. The results can be used by circuit designers to
design analog circuits, especially operational amplifier used for biosignals processing to minimize the
common-mode gain of their circuits. This research presents aid to circuit designers to improve their circuits
performance.

Improved nonlocal means based on pre classification and invariant block matchingIAEME Publication
One of the most popular image denoising methods based on self-similarity is called nonlocal
means (NLM). Though it can achieve remarkable performance, this method has a few shortcomings,
e.g., the computationally expensive calculation of the similarity measure, and the lack of reliable
candidates for some non repetitive patches. In this paper, we propose to improve NLM by integrating
Gaussian blur, clustering, and row image weighted averaging into the NLM framework.
Experimental results show that the proposed technique can perform denoising better than the original
NLM both quantitatively and visually, especially when the noise level is high.

Macro-programming is the new generation advanced method of using Wireless Sensor Network (WSNs), where application developers can extract data from sensor nodes through a high level abstraction of the system. Instead of developing the entire application, task graph representation of the WSN model presents simplified approach of data collection. However, mapping of tasks onto sensor nodes highlights several problems in energy consumption and routing delay. In this paper, we present an efficient hybrid approach of task mapping for WSN – Hybrid Genetic Algorithm, considering multiple objectives of optimization – energy consumption, routing delay and soft real time requirement. We also present a method to configure the algorithm as per user's need by changing the heuristics used for optimization. The trade-off analysis between energy consumption and delivery delay was performed and simulation results are presented. The algorithm is applicable during macro-programming enabling developers to choose a better mapping according to their application requirements.

linear beamforming schemes, that is, maximum ratio transmission (MRT) beamforming and zero-forcing (ZF)
beamforming. What’s more, we use minimum mean square error (MMSE) channel estimation to get imperfect

results show that the system performance is different when the imperfect CSI is taken into account.
Broad-Spectrum Model for Sharing Analysis between IMTAdvanced Systems and FSS...IOSRJECE
An appraisal of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) accredited for IMT-Advanced has been well thought-out in this letter. Derivation of the power spectral density (PSD) produce new model which easily assess the interfering signal power that appears in the band of a victim system without a spectrum emission mask. Furthermore, the broad-spectrum investigative model (BIM) can assess the interference from the 4G systems into FSS systems, when transmit power is unallocated to some sub-carriers overlapping the band of the victim system. Closed form is derived to create the model.
Enhanced Mobile Node Tracking With Received Signal Strength in Wireless Senso...IOSR Journals
Abstract : Node localization is important parameter in WSN. Node localization is required to report origin of
events which makes it one of the important challenges in WSN. Received signal strength (RSS) is used to
calculate distance between mobile node and reference node. The position of the mobile node is calculated using
multilateration algorithm (MA). Extended Kalman filter (EKF) is utilized to estimate the actual position. In this
paper, the implementation and enhancement of a tracking system based on RSS indicator with the aid of an
Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is described and an adaptive filter is derived.

A Threshold Enhancement Technique for Chaotic On-Off Keying SchemeCSCJournals
In this paper, an improvement for Chaotic ON-OFF (COOK) Keying scheme is proposed. The scheme enhances Bit Error Rate (BER) performance of standard COOK by keeping the signal elements at fixed distance from the threshold irrespective of noise power. Each transmitted chaotic segment is added to its flipped version before transmission. This reduces the effect of noise contribution at correlator of the receiver. The proposed system is tested in Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) channel and compared with the standard COOK under different Eb/No levels. A theoretical estimate of BER is derived and compared with the simulation results. Effect of spreading factor increment in the proposed system is studied. Results show that the proposed scheme has a considerable advantage over the standard COOK at similar average bit energy and with higher values of spreading factors.

CHANNEL ESTIMATION AND MULTIUSER DETECTION IN ASYNCHRONOUS SATELLITE COMMUNIC...ijwmn
In this paper, we propose a new method of channel estimation for asynchronous additive white Gaussian noise channels in satellite communications. This method is based on signals correlation and multiuser interference cancellation which adopts a successive structure. Propagation delays and signals amplitudes are jointly estimated in order to be used for data detection at the receiver. As, a multiuser detector, a single stage successive interference cancellation (SIC) architecture is analyzed and integrated to the channel estimation technique and the whole system is evaluated. The satellite access method adopted is the direct sequence code division multiple access (DS CDMA) one. To evaluate the channel estimation and the detection technique, we have simulated a satellite uplink with an asynchronous multiuser access.
SαS noise suppression for OFDM wireless communication in rayleight channel IJECEIAES
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a form of multicarrier transmission technique widely used in the modern wireless network to achieve high-speed data transmission with good spectral efficiency. However, in impulsive noise environement BER performances of these systems, originally designed for a Gaussian noise model, are much degraded. In this paper, a new symmetric-alpha-stable (SαS) noise suppression technique based conjointly on adaptive modulation, convolutional coding (AMC) and Recursive Least Square (RLS) filtering is presented. The proposed scheme is applied on OFDM system in Rayleigh fading channel. The transmissions are analyzed under different combinations of digital modulation schemes (BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM) and convolutional code rates (1/2, 2/3, 3/4). Simulation results show that our proposed hybrid technique provides effective impulsive noise cancelation in OFDM system and exhibits better BER performance.
Erca energy efficient routing and reclusteringaciijournal
The pervasive application of wireless sensor networks (WNSs) is challenged by the scarce energy constraints of sensor nodes. En-route filtering schemes, especially commutative cipher based en-route filtering (CCEF) can saves energy with better filtering capacity. However, this approach suffer from fixed paths and inefficient underlying routing designed for ad-hoc networks. Moreover, with decrease in remaining sensor nodes, the probability of network partition increases. In this paper, we propose energy-efficient routing and re-clustering algorithm (ERCA) to address these limitations. In proposed scheme with reduction in the number of sensor nodes to certain thresh-hold the cluster size and transmission range dynamically maintain cluster node-density. Performance results show that our approach demonstrate filtering-power, better energy-efficiency, and an average gain over 285% in network lifetime.
Tractable computation in outage performance analysis of relay selection NOMATELKOMNIKA JOURNAL
In recent years, using full-duplex (FD) transmission model provides enhanced bandwidth efficiency and improved performance for non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system. However, lack of papers have investigated FD relay together with relay selection issue to improve performance of NOMA system. The problems in power allocation for two NOMA users satisfying fairness as well as relay selection strategy are studied in this paper. By considering the outage performance of proposed scheme with its vital result, general NOMA wireless networks can be developed for future networks due to its improved performance. Simulation results show that the relaying selection scheme can achieve a significant performance improvement by increasing required quantity of relay.

The GSM System comprises of Base Transceiver Station (BTS), Base Station Controllers (BSC), Mobile Switching Centers (MSC), and set of registers (databases) to assist in mobility management and security functions.
All signaling between the MSC and the various registers (databases) as well as between the MSCs takes place using the Signaling System 7(SS7) network, with the application level messages using the Mobile Application Protocol (MAP) designed specifically for GSM.
The MAP protocol utilizes the lower layer functions from the SS7 protocol stack.

FREQUENCY
F Did you know?
Due to frequency, a BTS transmitting information at 1800 MHz with an output power of 10 Watts (W) will cover only half the area of a similar BTS transmitting at 900 MHz. To counteract this, BTSs using 1800 MHz may use a higher output power.
An MS communicates with a BTS by transmitting or receiving radio waves, which consist of electromagnetic energy. The frequency of a radio wave is the number of times that the wave oscillates per second. Frequency is measured in Hertz (Hz), where 1 Hz indicates one oscillation per second. Radio frequencies are used for many applications in the world today. Some common uses include:
• Television: 300 MHz approx. • FM Radio: 100 MHz approx. • Police radios: Country dependent • Mobile networks: 300 - 2000 MHz approx.
The frequencies used by mobile networks varies according to the standard being used

CGI (Cell Global identity), LAI (Location Area Identity),
BCCH carriers of the neighboring cells,
maximum output power allowed in the cell and other
broadcast messages like barred cell. (Downlink only)

ell Allocation (CA) is the subset of the total frequency band that is available for one BTS. It can be viewed as the total transport resource available for traffic between the BTS and its attached MSs. One Radio Frequency CHannel (RFCH) of the CA is used to carry synchronization information and the Broadcast Control CHannel (BCCH). This can be any of the carriers in the cell and it is known as the BCCH carrier or the c
carrier. Strong efficiency and quality requirements have resulted in a
0
rather complex way of utilizing the frequency resource. This chapter describes the basic principles of how to use this resource from the physical resource itself to the information transport service offered by the BTS.
Carrier separation is 200 kHz, which provides: • 124 pairs of carriers in the GSM 900 band • 374 pairs of carriers in the GSM 1800 band • 299 pairs of carriers in the GSM 1900 band
Using Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) each of these carriers is divided into eight Time Slots (TS). One TS on a TDMA frame is called a physical channel, i.e. on each duplex pair of carriers there are eight physical channels.
A variety of information is transmitted between the BTS and thMS. The information is grouped into different logical channelsEach logical channel is used for a specific purpose such as paging, call set-up and speech. For example, speech is sent on the logical channel Traffic CHannel (TCH). The logical channels are mapped onto the physical channels.
The information in this chapter does not include channels specific for GPRS (General Packet Radio Service). For basic information on GPRS see chapter 14 of this documentation.

Transmission management in BSS is a feature used in managing the Base Station Subsystem transmission system functions such as supervision, alarms, statistics
and settings. The network element mainly responsible for transmission management in BSS is the Base Station Controller (BSC).
Transmission management functionalities make it possible for the operators to manage the transmission equipment remotely from the BSC or from Nokia
NetAct integrated network management system, which simplifies network maintenance and operation. Supervision functions help minimise the time spent in maintenance, and statistics collection helps the operators analyse and optimise
the use of their transmission equipment. Moreover, new software can be downloaded in a way that does not interfere with the traffic.

2.Hardware and software requirements
There are no specific hardware or software requirements for the transmission management functionalities. However, the type of the BTS poses certain
limitations.
The BTS type specific functionalities are listed in the table below.
More details about the functionalities can be found in BSS transmission management functionalities .
Polling list sending with priority is a functionality used in positioning. To ensure accurate positioning calculations, the LMU unit must supply Radio Interface Timing System (RIT) information to the network faster than the normal Q1 polling is able to do. Faster LMU polling is achieved by defining a Q1 polling
priority for each Q1 device, with the LMU having the highest priority. For more information see Location Services .
3.BSS transmission network elements
The base Station Subsystem (BSS) consists of at least one Base Station Controller (BSC) and its Base Transceiver Stations (BTS). The Transcoder Submultiplexer
(TCSM) is also part of the BSS although it is actually located in the MSC site. The three basic configurations (topologies) for transmission between the BSC and
the BTSs are: point-to-point connection
multidrop chain multidrop loop
In point-to-point configuration each BTS is connected directly to the BSC. In the multidrop chain, BTSs form a chain and the first BTS in the network is connected directly to the BSC. In the loop connection, the BTSs form a loop where the first and the last BTS in the loop are connected directly to the BSC via a crossconnecting node. The topology used depends on a number of factors such as the distance between the BSC and the BTS, the number of transceivers (TRXs) used at a particular BTS site and the signalling channel rate between the BSC and the\ BTS. Usually the topology used is a mixture of the three basic topologies. Formore information on the topologies, refer to Nokia BSS Transmission\Configuration .

When the conducting cable carries the alternating current, the electromagnetic wave radiation can be formed.
If two conducting cables are close, the directions of their current are opposite, and the electromotive force is counteracted. Thus the radiation becomes week.
If two conducting cables are open, the directions of their current are the same. Thus the radiation becomes strong.
When the length of the conducting cable is like the wavelength, the current on the cable will be enhanced. Thus the radiation becomes strong.
The straight conducting cable which can generate the strong radiation is called the dipole.
The pole whose two arms are of the same length (1/4 Wavelength) is called as dipole or half-wave-length dipole.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
