In this paper, we studied the speaker adaptation methods that improve the speaker independent recognition system. For the independent speakers, we compared the results between bigram and back-off bigram, MAP and MLLR. Cause back-off bigram applys unigram and back-off weighted value as bigram probability value, it has the effect adding little weighted value to bigram probability value. We did an experiment using total 39-feature vectors as featuring voice parameter with 12-MFCC, log energy and their delta and delta-delta parameter. For this recognition experiment, We constructed a system made by CHMM and tri-phones recognition unit and bigram and back-off bigrams language model.

IEEE 802.11 MAC uses a distributed coordination function (DCF) known as carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance (CSMA/CA) for medium access. Random back-off algorithm helps to avoid the collision. This paper proposes virtual back-off and modified back-off algorithm for reduce a waiting time by back-off and reduce the collision. The modified DCF is consisted of these two algorithms. We expect to reduce the average waiting time of each transmission by using the modified DCF algorithm.

The exponential back-off algorithm doubles the back-off size after each collision without considering network traffic status, which causes degradation of system performance. In this paper, we propose a linear random back-off mechanism which dynamically selects the back-off window size based on the channel status which includes the number of active stations and collisions to significantly increase the protocol capacity. We present an analytical model for the saturated throughput of our linear random back-off algorithm. Simulation results show that performance can be substantially enhanced if binary exponential back-off algorithm is replaced by a linear back- off algorithm.

We studied the performance of a two-user time reversal multiple input single output scheme combined with the shifted transmission technique in a variable rate back-off scenario, called shifted time reversal (TR), that minimizes both intersymbol interference and multiuser interference. We compare the bit error rate performance of the shifted TR scheme to both full-rate TR and full back-off TR schemes and demonstrate its superiority to shifted zero forcing scheme when the guard interval is larger than one.

In this paper, we propose Geographical Back-off Routing (Geo-Back Routing) protocol for wireless sensor networks. Geo-Back uses the positions of nodes, a packet's destination and a optimal back-off time to make the packet forwarding decisions using only source and destination's location information without information about neighbor nodes' location or the number of one hop neighbor nodes. Under the frequent topology changes in WSNs, the proposed protocol can find optimal next hop location quickly without broadcast algorithm for update. In our analysis, Geo-Back's scalability and better performance is demonstrated on densely deployed wireless sensor networks.

Binary Exponential Back-off (BEB) scheme is widely adopted in both wire and wireless networks for collision resolution. The BEB suffers from several performance drawbacks including long packet delay and low utilization since it doubles the back-off size after each collision. In addition, operation of the BEB algorithm may lead to the last-come-first-serve result among competing users and the BEB is further unstable for every arrival rate greater than 0 due to its random access property[1,2]. In this paper, we propose a deterministic back-off algorithm to reduce contention interval as much as possible for accessing the channel without collision in the back-off process. Simulation results show that our scheme offers a higher throughput as well as a lower packet transfer delay than the BEB by taking advantage of its lower collision ratio in saturation state.

In network-centric warfare, the communication network has played a significant role in defeating an enemy. Especially, the urgent and important data should be preferentially delivered in time. Thus, we proposed a priority MAC protocol based on CSMA/CA with Binary Exponential Back-off for tactical wireless networks. This MAC protocol suggested a PCW(Prioritized Contention Window) with differentiated back-off time by priority and a RBR(Repetitive Back-off Reset) to reset the remaining back-off time. The results showed that this proposed MAC has higher performance than those of DCF(Distributed Coordination Function) in the transmission success rate and the number of control packet transmission by reducing the packet collision. Thus, it produced more effective power consumption. In comparison with DCF, this proposed protocol is more suitable in high-traffic network.

In this paper, I propose an modified back-off algorithm to improve the fairness for slotted ALOHA sensor networks. In hierarchical networks, the performance degradation of a specific node can cause degradation of the overall network performance in case the data transmitted by lower nodes is needed to be synthesized and processed by an upper node. Therefore it is important to ensure the fairness of transmission performance to all nodes. The proposed scheme choose a back-off time of a node considering the previous transmission results as well as the current transmission result. Moreover a node that failed to transmit consecutively is given gradually shorter back-off time but a node that is success to transmit consecutively is given gradually longer back-off time. Through simulations, I compare and analyze the performance of the proposed scheme with the binary exponential back-off algorithm(BEB). The results show that the proposed scheme reduces the throughput slightly compared to BEB but improves the fairness significantly.

The Low-Rate WPAN is a short range wireless networking technology characterized by low-rate, low-power, low complexity and low-cost. The LR-WPAN controls wireless channel access among network devices based on the contention-based CSMA/CA algorithm. Therefore, frame collisions may take place at any time, leading to the severe degradation of network performance. This paper proposes a new algorithm that changes back-off periods adaptively in the CSMA/CA process depending on network conditions, resulting in the reduction of frame collisions. Throughout extensive simulations, it turns out that varying the back-off periods dynamically shows better performance than maintaining the fixed back-off periods.

A method of full wave rectification is proposed which is accomplished by an inverter circuit including R-feed back. Both halves of the input cycle can be presented in the out put by composing a conductive half cycle and an inactive half cycle substituted by feed back in the cut off state.
