Analysis of Reinforcement Based Adaptive Routing in MANET

10.11591/ijeecs.v2.i3.pp648-694
Rahul Desai , B P Patil
This paper describes and evaluates the performance of various reinforcement learning algorithms with shortest path algorithms that are widely used for routing packets through the network. Shortest path routing is the simplest policy used for routing the packets along the path having minimum number of hops. In high traffic or high mobility conditions, the shortest path get flooded with huge number of packets and congestions occurs, So such shortest path does not provides the shortest path and increases delay for reaching the packets to the destination. Reinforcement learning algorithms are adaptive algorithms where the path is selected based on the traffic present on the network at real time. Thus they guarantee the least delivery time to reach the packets to the destination. Analysis done on a 6 by 6 irregular grid and sample ad hoc network shows that performance parameters used for judging the network - packet delivery ratio and delay provides optimum results using reinforcement learning algorithms.

The impact of LTE-FDD at the LTE-TDD for the co-existence under 2.6 GHz band for Malaysia

10.11591/ijeecs.v2.i3.pp657-667
L.M. Ahmed , M.F.L. Abdullah
For the co-existence scenario between LTE-FDD and LTE-TDD systems, if the two systems are using an adjacent frequency carrier, there will be a need for spatial separation between the eNodeBs of the two systems, otherwise the two systems will interfere each other. The study is implemented based on realistic parameters in order to help the network designer to make a decision about the best frequency allocation and network deployments in order to achieve higher performance under the lowest possible cost. Throughout this paper, the effect of the FDD system at the TDD is evaluated under wide range of ACIR and separation distances between the two systems eNodeBs as well. The results showed that, the recommended ACIR offset by the 3GPP is not enough for the LTE-TDD uplink throughput loss ratio to be acceptable, whereas 115 dB, 45 dB, and 35 dB of the ACIR is required for the throughput loss ratio in order to drop less than 5% for the co-located, Mid-point, and Edge-point eNodeBs deployment scenario respectively. Meanwhile, comparing to the uplink case, the downlink of the TDD system is much coherent; the recommended ACIR offset is only unacceptable for the co-located deployment case, whereas 50 dB of the ACIR is required for the system to drop less than 5%.

Aiming at the current problems of community detection algorithm in which user’s property is not used; the community structure is not stable and the efficiency of the algorithm is low, this paper proposes a community detection algorithm based on the user influence and its parallelization method. In terms of the concept of user influence in the subject communication and the PageRank algorithm, this paper uses the properties of nodes of users in social networks to form the user influence factors. Then, the user with the biggest influence is set as the initial node of new community and and the local modularity is introduced into detecting the community structure.  in order to make the result of community detection quick and efficient. Many experiments show that the improved algorithm can efficiently detect the community structure with large scale users and the results are stable. Therefore, this algorithm will have a wide applied prospect.

In Small Medium Enterprise’s (SME) financing risk analysis, the implementation of qualitative model by giving opinion regarding business risk is to overcome the subjectivity in quantitative model. However, there is another problem that the decision makers have difficulity to quantify the risk’s weight that delivered through those opinions. Thus, we focused on three objectives to overcome the problems that oftenly occur in qualitative model implementation. First, we modelled risk clusters using K-Means clustering, optimized by Pillar Algorithm to get the optimum number of clusters. Secondly, we performed risk measurement by calculating term-importance scores using TF-IDF combined with term-sentiment scores based on SentiWordNet 3.0 for Bahasa Indonesia. Eventually, we summarized the result by correlating the featured terms in each cluster with the 5Cs Credit Criteria. The result shows that the model is effective to group and measure the level of the risk and can be used as a basis for the decision makers in approving the loan proposal.

Space vector modulation (SVM) has received wide acceptance due to many benefits over other techniques such as higher output voltages, lower total harmonic distortion (THD), high-efficiency and flexible to be implemented in vector control systems. In digital implementation, the SVM equations can be optimally computed by eliminate the use of complex forms. In this paper, the simple SVM based on two-level inverter is employed for higher levels of inverters. This is to retain the simplicity of SVM computation for three-level and five-level cascaded H-bridge multilevel inverter (CHMI). Moreover, the proposed method utilizes two controller boards to perform high computational workloads and to eliminate glitch and error problems. Experiment results show that the THD of output voltage in five-level CHMI gives the smallest value among the results obtained from other levels.

In this paper, development on a coastal surveillance Radar network, which is called ISRA (Indonesian Sea Radar), is presented. This Radar network was developed for surveillance at the Sunda Strait. The radar network monitors the sea traffics and activities at the Sunda Strait, which an international shipping route. There were three Radars installed for this network. All these Radars in this research use FM-CW (Frequency Modulated Continuous Wave) technology. This FM-CW has an advantage of low power consumption, low cost of operational, longer life time and high reliability. Another important feature of this Radar is the LPI (Low Probability of Intercept) capability, where the signal transmission of this Radar cannot be easily detected by a Radar detector (electronic support measure) so that this Radar can be used for a covert operation. Detected targets by Radars are shown on the display and on the web based display for the Radar network. These three Radars on the remote sites can be monitored and controlled via an internet connection from the control room in our Bandung office, which is 300 KMs away. The results of this research and development show the Indonesian capability to build a complex system such as a chain of coastal surveillance Radar network. The knowledge obtained from this research will be used to develop more advanced Radars for different applications.

Requirement engineering is the earliest phases of the development process of information systems in which there is a process to understand the needs of system users and formulate it into a format that facilitates the process of analysis. Requirement engineering approach through intentional perspective is one of the arguments that appear in the field. In intentional modeling, the focus will lie on the motive of every actor, how each actor can achieve their motives, and what dependencies present in order to achieve that motive. Some existing intentional modeling still has some limitations. Modeling is still having complexity problem when it will be used to model real-world situations that are quite large. Another disadvantage is how to describe the hierarchical conditions in intentional modeling. This research is to develop existing intentional modeling, in order to overcome limitations in describing the hierarchical conditions.

For the single spectrum image could not fully express the target feature information, this paper proposed a multispectral image fusion method based on non-subsample contourlet transform (NSCT). For the low frequency coefficients decomposed, fourth-order correlation coefficient is used to calculate the correlation between each low frequency coefficients, averaging fusion for the higher correlation coefficient, weight phase congruency fusion for the low correlation coefficient. For high frequency coefficients, Gaussian weight sum modified Laplace method is used for fusing, to retain more local structure details. Simulation results show that the method effectively retain the image structure information and more local details, and increase the image contrast.

Samiullah Khan , Muhammad Arshad Javed , Nusrat Jahan , Fazilah Abd Manan
Rice is staple food for half of the world. With a population of almost 9.6 billion by the year 2050, there is a dire need of developing techniques to improve the crop plants, not only in terms of better yield but also to withstand harsh environmental conditions and stresses like drought, temperature, flood and salinity. Salinity is second to drought stress and hence it is very important to develop crops tolerant to salinity stress. This review discusses the mechanisms of salt tolerance and the recent developments in understanding the complex tolerance phenomena. One way to address the salinity issue is to develop tolerant rice varieties using conventional and modern breeding techniques for which screening the rice germplasm for the varieties with desired traits is critical. Conventional methods to develop tolerant rice varieties are discussed along with modern biotechnology techniques are also discussed. Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) and Marker Assisted Selection (MAS) are promising techniques. In addition to these modern techniques, some recent developments in the fields of transgenic plants, haploid breeding and Somaclonal variations have also been discussed. The limited knowledge about molecular and genetic mechanisms to tolerate abiotic stresses, however is a barrier to efficiently develop tolerant cultivars. A combination of conventional and modern biotechnology techniques could possibly open up the new ways.
