In this paper, we investigate the D2D Transmitter(Tx) and Receiver(Rx) pair assignment problem in the cellular system where D2D users share the uplink resource of the cellular system. Sharing the uplink resource of the cellular system may cause interference to the cellular system, though it is beneficial to improve the D2D user Capacity. Therefore, to protect the cellular users, D2D transmit power should be carefully controlled. In this work, we focus on optimal Tx-Rx assignment in such a way that the total transmit power of users is minimized. First, we consider the optimum Tx-Rx assignment in general and the corresponding complexity. Then, we propose an iterative D2D Tx-Rx assignment algorithm with low complexity that can minimize total transmit power of users. Finally, we present the numerical examples that show the complexity and the convergence to the unique transmit power level.

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are self-organized networks that typically consist of thousands of low-cost, low-powered sensor nodes. The reliability and availability of WSNs can be affected by faults, including those from radio interference, battery exhaustion, hardware and software failures, communication link errors, malicious attacks, and so on. Thus, we propose a novel multi-agent fault tolerant system for wireless sensor networks. Since a major requirement of WSNs is to reduce energy consumption, we use multi-agent and mobile agent configurations to manage WSNs that provide energy-efficient services. Mobile agent architecture have inherent advantages in that they provide energy awareness, scalability, reliability, and extensibility. Our multi-agent system consists of a resource manager, a fault tolerance manager and a load balancing manager, and we also propose fault-tolerant protocols that use multi-agent and mobile agent setups.

This paper investigates what are the types and legal grounds for interim measures in the U.S. arbitration practices. The statutory ground for the interim measures is the Revised Uniform Arbitration Act. Another ground, probably the most important, is the parties' own intentions to adopt the interim measures in their arbitration proceeding. Most typical interim measures in arbitration include preliminary injuction, attachment and antisuit injunction. In the U.S ex parte motion for interim measure is rarely allowed while the Revised UNCITRAL Model Law specified an ex parte interim measure. In launching the interim measures, the US courts have demanded several requirements including imparability, probability of success and passing of the balance test. In general, the U.S. courts have properly interfered with the procedural issues in arbitration unreined but leaving the substantive issues untouched. It is believed that such interference has helped to enhance the credibility in arbitration with respect to fairness and justice.

The error rate performance of phase shift Keyed(PSK) signal has been evaluated in terms of carrier-to-noise ratio(CNR), carrier-to-interferer ratio(CIR), impulsive index, and the phase difference between signal and interferer in the environment of cochannel PSK inter-ference and impulsive noise. We hays derived a general equation of the probability density function (p.d.f.) of output of coherent phase detector. And the error rate of the received binary PSK(BPSK) signal has been numerically evaluated. The graphic results show us that the best case is the situation of the signal and the inter- ferer meet with orthogonal phase.

We examine spectrum sensing in a situation of uncertain channel model. In particular, we assume that, besides additive noise, the observed signal contains an interference term whose probability distribution is unknown, and only its range and maximum power are known. We discuss the evaluation of the detector performance and its design in this situation. Although this paper specifically deals with the design of spectrum sensors, its scope is wider, as the applicability of its results extends to a general class of problems that may arise in the design of receivers whenever there is uncertainty about how to model the environment in which one is expected to operate. The theory expounded here allows one to determine the performance of a receiver, by combining the available (objective) probabilistic information with (subjective) information describing the designer's attitude.

The wireless mesh network (WMN) has attracted significant interests as a broadband wireless network to provide ubiquitous wireless access for broadband services. Especially with incorporating multiple orthogonal channels and multiple directional antennas into the WMN, each node can communicate with its neighbor nodes simultaneously without interference between them. However, as we allow more freedom, we need a more sophisticated algorithm to fully utilize it and developing such an algorithm is not easy in general. In this paper, we study a joint channel assignment, link scheduling, routing, and rate control problem for the WMN with multiple orthogonal channels and multiple directional antennas. This problem is inherently hard to solve, since the problem is formulated as a mixed integer nonlinear problem (MINLP). However, despite of its inherent difficulty, we develop an algorithm to solve the problem by using the generalized Benders decomposition approach [2]. The simulation results show the proposed algorithm provides the optimal solution to maximize the network utility, which is defined as the sum of utilities of all sessions.

In this paper, we propose a new method of the communication system for cooperative behavior and control in a collective autonomous mobile robots. A communication function among the collective robots is essential to intelligent cooperation. In general, global communication is effective for small number of robots. However when the number of robot goes on increasing, this becomes difficult to be realized because of limited communication capacity and increasing amount of information to handle. And also the problems such as communication interference and improper message transmission occur. So we propose local communication system based on infrared sensor to realize the cooperative behavior and control as the solution of above problem. It is possible to prevent overflow of information and exchange of complex information by combining communicate a specific robot. At last we verify the effectiveness of the proposed communication system from example of cooperative behavior.

This paper covers nulling algorithm. In this algorithm, we assume that nulling points are already known. In general, nulling algorithm using matrix equation was utilized. But, this algorithm is pointed out that computational complexity is disadvantage. So, we choose gradient method to reduce the computational complexity. In order to further reduce the computational complexity, we propose approximate gradient method using characteristic of trigonometric functions. The proposed method has same performance compared with conventional method while having half the amount of computation when the number of antenna and nulling point are 20 and 1, respectively. In addition, we could virtually eliminate the trigonometric functions arithmetic. Trigonometric functions arithmetic cause a big problem in actual implementation like FPGA processor(Field Programmable gate array). By utilizing the above algorithm in a multi-cell environment, beamforming gain can be obtained and interference can be reduced at same time. By the above results, the algorithm can show excellent performance in the cell boundary.

In general, the communication channel can be modeled as inter-symbol interference(ISI) and additive white gaussian noise channel. Viterbi algorithm is optimum detector for transmitted data at transmitter, but it needs large computational complexity. For the sake of this problem, adaptive equalizers are employed for channel equalization which is not attractive for mixed phase channel. In this paper, we propose the effective new channel equalizer for mixed phase channel and show the better performance than previous equalizers.

In earlier works on transmitter power control in cellular radio systems, the problem of whether a signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) threshold is achievable is determined by apparently different rules for homogeneous and heterogeneous SIR systems. In this paper, we present a unified and more universal framework for both cases. We also highlight the conditions under which a given SIR threshold vector for the heterogeneous SIR system is achievable, although so far there is no general solution to this problem.
