Availability of survivable Valiant load balancing (VLB) networks over optical networks

Valiant load balancing (VLB) network has been proposed as a capacity-efficient solution to handle highly dynamic traffic in future backbone networks. In this paper, we study the availability of VLB networks that are overlaid over an optical infrastructure. The main challenges in such a context arise from the unique routing and protection scheme that goes beyond the definition of conventional co...

Null Steering GPS Array in the Presence of Mutual Coupling

A null steering GPS antenna array is designed in this paper. In the proposed method, the exact full wave antenna radiation properties with the effect of mutual couplings and nearby scatterers are considered to calculate the array steering vector, precisely. Although the proposed method is not constrained by the array geometry and the antenna element specifications, a five patch antenna elements...

$n$-Array Jacobson graphs

We generalize the notion of Jacobson graphs into $n$-array columns called $n$-array Jacobson graphs and determine their connectivities and diameters. Also, we will study forbidden structures of these graphs and determine when an $n$-array Jacobson graph is planar, outer planar, projective, perfect or domination perfect.

Improvement of the bulk sensitivity and FoM of the plasmonic nanodipole antenna array

In this paper, the sensitivity of a plasmonic nanodipole antenna array for different materials of the metal nanodipole and substrate is calculated by changing the refractive index of the surrounding medium. The performance of our proposed array is studied at two wavelengths of 1310 and 1550 nm, the wavelengths of the second and third telecommunications windows. It is shown that by using the sil...
