Abstract:
This paper is concerned with a wireless receiving link evaluation method using statistical means of received signal strength indicator (RSSI) and link quality indicator (LQI) based on the IEEE 802.15.4 protocol for wireless sensor networks. Traditional methods using single RSSI and single LQI based on the IEEE 802.11 protocol have the disadvantage of the inaccurate evaluation. In this paper, we carry out a quantitative emulation experiment via computing statistical means of RSSI and LQI based on wireless sensor networks protocol of IEEE 802.15.4. Tested numerical values are analyzed using MATL

Abstract:
Hardware-based link quality estimators (LQEs) in wireless sensor networks generally use physical layer parameters to estimate packet reception ratio, which has advantages of high agility and low overhead. However, many existing studies didn’t consider the impacts of environmental changes on the applicability of these estimators. This paper compares the performance of typical hardware-based LQEs in different environments. Meanwhile, aiming at the problematic Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) calculation used in existing studies, a more reasonable calculation method is proposed. The results show that

In Industrial Wireless Networks (IWNs), the communication through Machine-to-Machine (M2M) is often affected by the noise in the industrial environment, which leads to the decline of communication reliability.

Abstract:
Link capacity reductions, which occur often, degrade the service quality and performance of urban rail transit (URT) networks. To measure the reliability of a URT network when link capacity reductions occur in a given time period, the passengers’ generalized travel cost (GTC) is computed and passengers are divided into three categories. The GTC considers here the crowding in trains, seat availability, and perceived travel time. Passengers whose relative increase in GTC on a URT is below or above a preset threshold belong to category I or II, respectively, while passengers who cannot travel on

Abstract:
Modern military radio systems operate in the complex conditions of the electronic environment, due to the limited frequency range, the influence of deliberate interference and signal fading. One of the ways to improve the effectiveness of military radio communication systems is to develop indicators (methods, techniques) for evaluating the effectiveness of military radio communication systems. The analysis found that known approaches to evaluating the performance of military radio communications systems are based on the use of bit error probability in a channel, which is a rather rough indicat

This study aims to examine the link between foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows and economic growth, also considering several institutional quality variables, as well as sustainable development goals (SDGs) set in the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. By estimating panel data regression models for a sample of 11 Central and Eastern European countries, from 2003 to 2016, the empirical outcomes provide support for a non-linear relationship between FDI and gross domestic product per capita. Regarding institutional quality, it is found that control of corruption, government effectivenes

This article discusses how one NHS trust reduced the incidence of heel pressure ulcers within adult inpatient settings. In 2016/17, the trust identified 14 avoidable category 3 and above pressure ulcers/injuries in inpatient settings, of which 10 had developed on the heels. Through root cause analysis, the organisation identified themes, which prompted action, and a quality improvement project ‘Deal with heels’ was planned and implemented. Chan

Abstract:
Research on aviation accidents and incidents has indicated humans are potentially the “weak link” in the chain of accident causation. The problem faced by researchers here is there is often no clear standard of determining what decision is “correct” or “incorrect“. In addition, the loose coupling of an event outcome and the decision process makes it hard researchers to use accident reports as a reliable indicator of the quality of the decision. The goal of this research is to explore cognitive processes of pilots when dealing with the types of decisions required under time pressure and with co

In mobile communications systems, fast link adaptation (FLA) aims to achieve high system throughput of each user by accurately determining a channel quality indicator (CQI) for feedback, which predicts the next channel based on the current channel state information. In this paper, we propose an improved calibration method of mutual information effective signal-to noise-ratio mapping (MIESM) to determine an accurate CQI feedback value in FLA.

Railway wheelsets are the key to ensuring the safe operation of trains. To achieve zero-defect production, railway equipment manufacturers must strictly control every link in the wheelset production process. The press-fit curve output by the wheelset assembly machine is an essential indicator of the wheelset’s assembly quality. The operators will still need to manually and individually recheck press-fit curves in our practical case. However, there are many uncertainties in the manual inspection. For example, subjective judgment can easily cause inconsistent judgment results between different i

Health-related quality of life has become an increasingly important indicator of health status in clinical trials and epidemiological research. Moreover, the study of the relationship of health-related quality of life with patients and disease characteristics has become one of the primary aims of many health-related quality of life studies. Health-related quality of life scores are usually assumed to be distributed as binomial random variables and often highly skewed.
