In this project report, we design a MAC protocol for direction-t0-directional (DtDMAC) transmission. We study the issues that face this type of transmission and then design an efficient protocol that is derived from the IEEE 802.11 DCF MAC protocol to address these issues. We present some preliminary simulation results that prove the feasibility of the proposed protocol.

First, an integer programming model is proposed to find an α-labeling for quadratic graphs. Then, a Tabu search algorithm is developed to solve large scale problems. The proposed approach can generate α-labeling for special classes of quadratic graphs, not previously reported in the literature. Then, the main theorem of the paper is presented. We show how a problem in graph theory c...

Issue of the iterated filters in the directional filter bank is examined. The result is called pyramidal directional filter bank PDFB. Recently.NDFB with a new multiscale pyramid, we propose the surfacelet transform, which. A Frequency partitioning of the directional filter bank with 3 levels.In this paper, multiscale directional filter bank MDFB is investigated for texture characterization. Te...

The information divergence of a probability measure P from an exponential family E over a nite set is de ned as in mum of the divergences of P from Q subject to Q ∈ E . All directional derivatives of the divergence from E are explicitly found. To this end, behaviour of the conjugate of a log-Laplace transform on the boundary of its domain is analysed. The rst order conditions for P to be a maxi...

where [g]j,l=1 defines a C ∞-smooth Riemannian metric and b = (b1, ..., bm) and q are, correspondingly, C∞-smooth complex-valued 1-form and function on M . σ is a C∞-smooth complex-valued function on ∂M and ∂ν stands for the normal derivative. Let Rλ be the resolvent of (1), (2) which is meromorphic for λ ∈ C (see Sect. 3 and [1]) and let Rλ(x, y) be its Schwartz kernel. A natural analog of the...

In this paper we determine the number of the meaningful compositions of higher order of the differential operations and Gateaux directional derivative.

The characteristics of goal-directed actions tend to resemble those of previously executed actions, but it is unclear whether such effects depend strictly on action history, or also reflect context-dependent processes related to predictive motor planning. Here we manipulated the time available to initiate movements after a target was specified, and studied the effects of predictable movement se...

We consider spherical data Xi noised by a random rotation εi ∈ SO(3) so that only the sample Zi = εiXi, i = 1, . . . , N is observed. We define a nonparametric test procedure to distinguish H0 : ”the density f of Xi is the uniform density f0 on the sphere” and H1 : ”‖f − f0‖2 ≥ CψN and f is in a Sobolev space with smoothness s”. For a noise density fε with smoothness index ν, we show that an ad...
