Geminate electron-hole recombination in organic solids in the presence of a donor-acceptor heterojunction is studied by computer simulations. We analyze how the charge-pair separation probability in such systems is affected by energetic disorder of the media, anisotropy of charge-carrier mobilities, and other factors. We show that in energetically disordered systems the effect of heterojunction on the charge-pair separation probability is stronger than that in idealized systems without disorder. We also show that a mismatch between electron and hole mobilities reduces the separation probability, although in energetically disordered systems this effect is weaker compared to the case of no energetic disorder. We demonstrate that the most important factor that determines the charge-pair separation probability is the ratio of the sum of electron and hole mobilities to the rate constant of recombination reaction. We also consider systems with mobility anisotropy and calculate the electric field dependence of the charge-pair separation probability for all possible orientations of high-mobility axes in the donor and acceptor phases. We theoretically show that it is possible to increase the charge-pair separation probability by controlling the mobility anisotropy in heterojunction systems and in consequence to achieve higher efficiencies of organic photovoltaic devices.

Capacity has always been a major concern in wireless networks. This letter studies the impact of mobility on the overall system capacity in wireless cellular networks. In this letter, we present a simple system model which we developed to capture the inherent relationships among system capacity, new call blocking probability, handoff dropping probability, call terminating probability, and bandwidth utilization rate. We investigate the complex relationship between mobility and capacity-related parameters. Through simulation, we demonstrate that mobility has a significant impact on capacity and is reversely proportional to the bandwidth reserved for handoff traffic.

This paper suggests the effective channel assignment scheme for mobility prediction handover. For maintaining required quality of service (QoS) during handover, there are handover algorithms these reserve the channel where the movement is predicted. But channel assignment schemes these have been studied are not considered mobility prediction handover. This paper suggests the channel assignment scheme that considers mobility predicted handover. The suggested algorithm maintains dropping probability of handover calls, decreases blocking probability of new calls and increases channel utilization.

The handoff failure probability has to be enhanced efficiently to enhance the performance of PCS system. In this paper a new scheme called velocity adaptive handoff algorithm for reducing handoff failure probability and maintaining the carried traffic constantly in PCS systems, by assigning low handoff threshold value for high mobility calls, and assigning high handoff threshold value for low mobility calls, is presented. The performance of evaluation of this new scheme is carried out in terms of tranffic characteristics. Also velocity estimation algorithm for this new scheme is presented. According to the result, the handoff failure probability of velocity adaptive handoff algorithm is enhanced about 60%.

본 논문에서는 이동 컴퓨팅 환경에서 셀 내부 영역에 기반을 둔 이동성 예측 모델과 모바일 호스트들의 이동성을 토대로 하는 이동성 등급을 동적으로 조정할 수 있는 자원 예약 기법을 제안한다. 본 논문에서 제안하는 이동성 예측 모델은 셀 내부의 각각 다른 영역을 기반으로 가약 마코프 체인을 이용하여 모델링 하였으며, 새로운 방법으로 핸드오프 확률을 추정한다. 그리고 모바일 호스트들이 셀 내부에 머물 가능성이 있는 셀 내부 존재 시간을 제공하며, 그 셀 내부 존재 시간은 동적인 자원 예약 기법의 새로운 인자로 활용된다. 동적인 자원 예약 기법은 모바일 호스트들의 내부 존재 시간의 마감에 따라서 변화하는 이동성 등급을 이용하여 이웃 셀의 자원을 동적으로 예약한다. 이 기법들은 신규 호 블록킹율과 핸드 오프 호 종료율을 개선시켰다.

The central challenge in the design of ad-hoc networks is the development of dynamic routing protocol that efficiently finds route between mobile nodes. Several routing protocols such as DSR, AODV and DSDV have been proposed in the literature to facilitate communication in such dynamically changing network topology. In this paper, a Node Transition Probability (NTP) based routing algorithm, which determines stable routes using the received power from all other neighboring nodes is proposed. NTP based routing algorithm is designed and implemented using Global Mobile Simulator (GloMoSim), a scalable network simulator. The performance of this routing algorithm is studied for various mobility models and throughput, control overhead, average end-to-end delay, and percentage of packet dropped are compared with the existing routing protocols. This algorithm shows acceptable performance under all mobility conditions. The results show that this algorithm maximizes the bandwidth utilization during heavy traffic with lesser overhead.

Traffic performance in a microcellular system is much more affected by cell dwell time and channel holding time in each cell. Cell dwell time of a call is characterized by its mobility pattern, i.e., stochastic changes of moving speed and direction. Cell dwell time provides important information for other analyses on traffic performance such as channel holding time, handover rate, and the average number of handovers per call. In the next generation mobile communication system, the cell size is expected to be much smaller than that of current one to accommodate the increase of user demand and to achieve high bandwidth utilization. As the cell size gets small, traffic performance is much more affected by variable mobility of users, especially by that of pedestrians. In previous work, analytical models are based on simple probability models. They provide sufficient accuracy in a simple second-generation cellular system. However, the role of them is becoming invalid in a picocellular environment where there are rapid change of network traffic conditions and highly random mobility of pedestrians. Unlike in previous work, we propose an improved probability model evolved from so-called Random walk model in order to mathematically formulate variable mobility of pedestrians and analyze the traffic performance. With our model, we can figure out variable characteristics of pedestrian mobility with stochastic correlation. The above-mentioned traffic performance measures are analyzed using our model.

이동 통신망의 수요가 증가함에 따라 보다 많은 가입자를 수용하기 위해 셀의 크기가 소형화되고 이는 잦은 위치 갱신을 유발시켜 위치 관리 비용의 증가를 가져왔다. 이와 같은 위치 관리 비용을 줄이기 위해 본 논문에서는 호 수신 확률에 근거한 위치 관리 기법을 제안한다. 제안된 기법은 단말이 새로운 LA로 진입 할 때 그 LA에서 호 수신 확률과 현재까지의 위치 갱신 생략 횟수를 고려하여 위치 갱신 여부를 결정한다. 이 때 호 수신 확률은 단말의 이동 성향에 관한 예측 정보에 의해서 계산된다. 성능을 검증하기 위해 시뮬레이션을 수행하였고 그 결과, 예측 정보가 맞을 경우 위치 갱신 비용을 상당히 줄일 수 있으며 예측 정보가 어긋나더라도 최소한 기존 표준안(IS-41)의 위치 관리 비용을 초과하지 않음을 시뮬레이션을 통해 알 수 있었다. 또한 예측 정보 유지와 같은 유사한 형태의 오버헤드를 요구하는 AS(Alternative Strategy)와도 시뮬레이션을 통해 성능을 비교하고 제안한 기법의 성능이 우수함을 보였다.

Shipyards are potential environments for using IoT services, sensor networks, and delay tolerant networks. Simulations of those services and networks strongly rely on human mobility models. Results obtained with an unrealistic model may not reflect the true performance of applications, protocols, and algorithms in a shipyard. A lot of synthetic models for human movements have been studied but most of them are generic and focus on the daily movements of humans on city scales. Nevertheless, workers in shipyards have unique movement characteristics such as movement speed, pause time, and attractions places. For instance, workers usually move to some places, where they work, and rarely move to other places in the factory. Movement characteristics of workers not only depend on workers but also on tasks, which they do. For instance, workers, who paint ships, have similar movement speed and pause time. Hence, in this paper, human movements in shipyards are studied. We propose a new human mobility model called the human mobility mode in shipyards (MIS). In MIS, workers are classified into multiple types. Movement characteristics of a worker are similar to other workers in the same type. Based on the visiting probability, workers have some places, where they frequently visits, and some places, where they rarely visit. We analyze real mobility traces and studie to achieve human movement characteristics from real traces. The results show that MIS provides a well-match to the movement characteristic from real traces.
