چکیده

Over the last few years, many positioning systems using wireless LAN have been developed. Some systems use signal strength for positioning. But the distribution of received signal strength depends on orientation of mobile terminal. In this paper, we examine the differences of received signal strength distribution to each orientation and propose an orientation estimation method using the divergence of received signal strength distribution. With our method, users can determine orientation only using a wireless LAN adapter. Evaluation results show that the accuracy of 2-way estimation is 92% and 4-way estimation is 83% under six seconds observation of four access points.

Estimation of penetration rate of tunnel boring machines using Monte-Carlo simulation method

One of the most important parameters used for determining the performance of tunnel boring machines (TBMs) is their penetration rate. The parameters affecting the penetration rate can be divided in two categories. The first category is the controllable parameters such as the TBM technical characteristics, and type and geometry of the tunnel, and the second one is the uncontrollable parameters s...

Estimation of harmonic interference parameters of surface-NMR signal using an adaptive method and residual signal power

Surface nuclear magnetic resonance (surface-NMR) method is a well-known tool for determining the water-bearing layers and subsurface resistivity structure. Harmonic interference is an inevitable interference in surface-NMR measurements. Accurate estimation of harmonic interference parameters (i.e., fundamental frequency, phase and amplitude) leads to better retrieval of power-line harmonics and...

Some statistical inferences on the upper record of Lomax distribution

In this paper, we investigate some inferential properties of the upper record Lomax distribution. Also, we will estimate the upper record of the Lomax distribution parameters using methods, Moment (MME), Maximum Likelihood (MLE), Kullback-Leibler Divergence of the Survival function (DLS) and Baysian. Finally, we will compare these methods using the Monte Carlo simulation.
