In this work, we propose an analytic framework for dimensioning the link capacity of broadband access networks which provide universal broadband access services to a diverse kind of customers such as patient and impatient customers. The proposed framework takes into account the flow-level quality of service (QoS) of a connection as well as the packet-level QoS, via which a simple and systematic provisioning and operation of the network are provided. To that purpose, we first discuss the necessity of flow-aware network dimensioning by reviewing the networking technologies of the current and future access network. Next, we propose an analytic model for dimensioning the link capacity for an access node of broadband convergence networks which takes into account both the flow and packet level QoS requirements. By carrying out extensive numerical experiment for the proposed model assuming typical parameters that represent real network environment, the validity of the proposed method is assessed.

To propose effective signaling scheme for inductive coupling link, inductive coupling channel and signaling schemes are analyzed. For fair comparison of various signaling schemes, a signal quality factor ($Q_{signal}$) is introduced and the NRZ signal scheme shows better signal quality factor than BPM signaling schemes. For simulation, the transmitter for inductive coupling link is designed with 0.13 ${\mu}m$ CMOS process and the inductor is modeled as spiral inductor in chip.

In the global Internet, a constraint-based routing algorithm performs the function of selecting a routing path while satisfying some given constraints rather than selecting the shortest path based on physical topology. It is necessary for constraint-based routing to disseminate and update link state information. The triggering policy of link state updates significantly affects the volume of update traffic and the quality of services (QoS). In this letter, we propose an adaptive triggering policy based on link-usage statistics in order to reduce the volume of link state update traffic without deterioration of QoS. Also, we evaluate the performance of the proposed policy via simulations.

One of the major challenges in the design of wireless sensor network (WSN) is to reduce the energy consumption of sensor nodes for prolonging the network lifetime. In the sensor network, communication is the most energy consuming event. Therefore, most of the energy saving techniques conserve energy by adjusting different parameters of the trans-receiver. Among them, one of the promising methods is the transmission power control (TPC). In this paper, we investigated the effects of the link quality based TPC scheme employed to the IEEE 802.15.4 standard for energy saving. The simulation results demonstrated that the link quality based TPC scheme works effectively in conserving energy as compared to the conventional IEEE 802.15.4.

An effective Carrier-Based PWM scheme that enables the instantaneous quality of each branch point voltage of a diode clamped 4-level inverter to be reduced at a low modulation index is described. This scheme presents a computed zero sequence voltage of PWM by the feedback of both DC-link voltages and load currents. The proposed PWM scheme enables to increase the controllable region of DC-link voltage and makes it possible to operate with small DC-link capacitors. The validity of the proposed PWM scheme is verified by simulation results.

This paper proposes an opportunistic subchannel allocation (OSA) scheme for relay-based marine communication networks to improve a sum-rate capacity. In most previous works for relay-based networks, each RS delivers the data received from the BS immediately to the corresponding ships in each frame. The achievable data-rate of the two-hop transmission (BS-RS and RS-ship links) is thus limited by the channel quality between BS-RS and RS-ship links. Hence, the radio resources can be wasted according to the difference in the channel quality between the BS-RS link and the RS-ship link. The proposed OSA scheme reduces the waste of radio resources by efficiently and independently allocating the radio resources at the BS-RS link and at the RS-ship link according to the channel quality of each link. The proposed OSA scheme, however, increases the computational complexity, because the BS finds the optimal OFDMA resource by checking the channel quality of all BS-RS links and RS-ship links. The simulation results show that the sum-rate capacity of the proposed OSA scheme improves maximum 14.0% compared with the conventional scheme.

In dual-hop relaying systems, the conventional partial relay selection is based on the channel information only for the first hop. On the other hand, the efficient partial relay selection is based on the channel information for the hop with the minimum of the average channel powers for the first and second hops at each end-to-end link since the correlation coefficient between the end-to-end link quality and the link quality of the hop with the minimum of the average channel powers for the first and second hops is larger than that between the end-to-end link quality and the link quality of the other hop. In this paper, the outage probability of the conventional partial relay selection and the efficient partial relay selection in dual-hop decode-and-forward relaying systems is analyzed for non-identically distributed Rayleigh fading channels. Through numerical investigation, the outage performance of the efficient partial relay selection is compared with the outage performances of the conventional partial relay selection and the best relay selection based on all the channel information for the first and second hops.

In this paper, a novel Active Voltage Quality Regulator (AVQR) topology with a thyristor rectifier and an adaptive dclink voltage control strategy are proposed. The proposed AVQR can efficiently mitigate the long duration variations (e.g. undervoltages/overvoltages), voltage imbalances and voltage harmonics. Compared with conventional AVQRs, it can regulate the load voltage very well with a much lower dc-link voltage. This is accomplished by replacing the diode rectifier with a thyristor rectifier. Moreover, its dc-link voltage can vary with the deviations of the supply voltage through the proposed adaptive dc-link voltage control strategy. All of these contribute to its significantly higher efficiency for online operating, which is very important and attractive for many applications. The proposed topology and control strategy are theoretically analyzed in detail. Simulation results are also provided in the paper. Finally, the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method are verified by means of experimental results from a 2kVA prototype. Both of the simulation and experimental results show that the proposed AVQR can achieve a much higher efficiency and similar regulation performance when compared with the conventional ones.

This paper propose a new form of UPQC (Unified Power Quality Compensator) to compensate the current and voltage quality problems of nonlinear loads. The conventional UPQC system consists of a series inverter, a parallel inverter, and a common DC link. A new type of UPQC proposed is a parallel compensator with SVC (Static Var Compensator) added to compensate for the wide compensation range and low DC link voltage. The parallel inverter compensates the reactive power generated by the nonlinear load, and the series inverter compensates the sag and swell generated at the power supply side.
