In this paper we analyze the performance of a statistical ATM multiplexer with bursty input traffic and two thresholds in the buffer by using queueing model. Two priority levels are considered for source traffic which is modeled by Markov Modulated Poisson Process to represent the bursty characteristics. Service time distributions of two priority sources are assumed to be same and deterministic for ATM environment. The partial buffer sharing scheme with one threshold may experience a sensitive state change around the threshold. But the proposed multiplexer with two thresholds avoids this hysterical phenominon to improve the system operation.

Recently, researches on the performance warranty contracting has been going on to improve construction quality in road pavement area. The performance warranty contracting gives construction companies opportunity to select materials and methods freely while asks them to maintain a certain level of performance during a given period. To introduce the performance warranty contracting in Korea, lots of research results on performance indicator and threshold value of asphalt pavement have been made to be included in the warranty specification. However, research effort on the performance indicator and threshold value of concrete pavement which is commonly constructed in expressway and national highway has not been enough. In this study, the warranty duration, performance indicator, and threshold value of the concrete pavement were investigated by reviewing literatures on cases of the performance warranty contracting in European countries and states of the US. Major distresses influencing the performance of jointed concrete pavement were investigated and analyzed to be compared to the warranty duration, performance indicator, and threshold value of foreign countries.

In this paper, an efficient threshold-based filtering (TF) buffer management scheme is proposed. The TF is capable of minimizing the overall loss performance and improving the fairness of buffer usage in a shared buffer packet switch. The TF consists of two mechanisms. One mechanism is to classify the output ports as sctive or inactive by comparing their queue lengths with a dedicated buffer allocation factor. The other mechanism is to filter the arrival packets of inactive output ports when the total queue length exceeds a threshold value. A theoretical queuing model of TF is formulated and resolved for the overall packet loss probability. Computer simulations are used to compare the overall loss performance of TF, dynamic threshold (DT), static threshold (ST) and pushout (PO). We find that TF scheme is more robust against dynamic traffic variations than DT and ST. Also, although the over-all loss performance between TF and PO are close to each other, the implementation of TF is much simpler than the PO.

In this paper, double laxity threshold MLT(Minimum Laxity Threshold) algorithm and double queue threshold QLT(Queue Length Threshold) algorithm are proposed as DPS(Dynamic Priority Scheduling) techniques for advanced processing of multiple class traffics. Also, the performance of the proposed algorithms is analyzed by a computer simulation. According to the simulation results, it can be shown that the proposed double laxity threshold ML T algorithm advances the processing performance versus ML T algorithm for 2 or more classes delay sensitive traffics, and that double queue length threshold QL T algorithm provides more efficient performance than QL T for 2 or more classes of non real time traffics.

We consider fault detection and isolation (FDI) problem for inertial navigation systems (INS) which use redundant inertial sensors and propose an FDI method using average of multiple parity vectors which reduce false alarm and wrong isolation, and improve correct isolation. We suggest optimal isolation threshold based on navigation performance, and suggest optimal sample number to obtain short detection time and to enhance detectability of faults little larger than threshold.

Inference for discrete event simulations usually relies on either independent replications or, if each simulation run is expensive, the method of batch means applied to a single replications. We present a new method, threshold bootstrap, which equals or exceeds the performance of independent replications or batch means. The method works by resampling runs of data created when a stationary time series crosses a threshold level, such as the sample mean of series. Computational results show that the threshold bootstrap matches or exceeds the performance of these alternative methods in estimating the standard deviation of the sample mean and producing valid confidence intervals.

This paper describes an automatic threshold decision using a maximum mismatched correlation value in the direct sequence spread spectrum (DS-SS) system. For received PN codes with different single-to-noise ratio (SNR), this scheme is able to detect a desired threshold value in the search mode, i.e. a maximum mismstched correlation value, so that value is utilized as a threshold for the verification mode. Performance of the proposed scheme in both the additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) and frequency-selective Rayleigh fading channels is analyzed through the Monte Carlo simulation. And hardware implementation of this scheme using a DSP processor is demonstrated. The proposed acquisition shceme is compared to the conventional constant threshold (CT) scheme, and significant improvement of performance is shown. Analysis of system performance in the verification mode is presented, and key quantities such as the false alarm probability and the detection probability are derived in a AWGN channel.

In this paper, we analyzed the error rate Performance of Convolution coded 16 QAM signal with Optimum Threshold Detection in Rician Fading Enviroments. The performance of 16-QAM signal with CTD (conventional threshold detection) which employs convolution coding technique was analyzed and the performance improvement of convolution coded 16-QAM signal with OTD (optimum threshold detection) which is varied according to fading parameter 'K' and AWGN in Rician Fading channel was simulated. As a result of analysis, it was shown the effect of performance improvement to overcome the environment of mobile radio data communication channel.

3GPP RLC protocol specification adopted a window-controlled selective-repeat ARQ scheme for provisioning reliable data transmission. Inevitably, the re-ordering issue arises in the 3GPP's ARQ since it belongs to the selective-repeat ARQ clan. A long re-ordering time results in the degradation of throughput and delay performance, and may invoke the overflow of the re-ordering buffer. Also, the re-ordering time must be regulated to meet the requirements of some services which are both loss-sensitive and delay-sensitive. In the 3GPP's ARQ, we may deflate the occupancy of the re-ordering buffer by reducing the window size and/or length of the status report period. Such a decrease, however, deteriorates the throughput and delay performance and encroaches the resource of the reverse channel. Aiming at reducing the occupancy at the re-ordering buffer while suppressing the degradation of throughput and delay performance, we propose threshold-dependent occupancy control schemes, identified as post-threshold and pre-threshold schemes, as supplements to the 3GPP's ARQ. For judging the effectiveness of the proposed schemes, we investigate peak occupancy, maximum throughput and average delay in the practical environment involving fading channels. From the simulation results, we observe that the proposed schemes invoke the performance trade-off between occupancy and throughput in general. Also, we reveal that the post-threshold scheme is able to improve the throughput and delay performance of the ordinary 3GPP's ARQ without inflating the occupancy of the re-ordering buffer.

In this paper, we formulate an optimal control problem to obtain the optimal signal strength and detection threshold for tracking with NN filter, First, we predict the tracking performance of NN filter by using the HYCA method. Based on this method, the predicted tracking performance is represented with respect to signal strength and detection threshold. Using this relation, we find the optimal parameters for following three examples： 1) the sequence of optimal detection threshold which minimizes sum of position estimation error； 2) the sequence of optimal detection threshold which minimizes sum of validation gate volume； and 3) the sequence of optimal signal strength and detection threshold which minimizes sum of signal strength.
