In this study, we allocate Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions of electricity transmission to the consumers. As an allocation basis, we introduce energy distance. Energy distance takes the transmission load on the electricity energy system into account in addition to the amount of electricity consumption. As a case study, we estimate regional GHG emissions of electricity transmission loss in Chile. ...

Reliable data transmission is desirable in wireless sensor networks due to the high packet loss rate during multi-hop transmissions. To reliably transmit data for event-driven applications, packet loss recovery mechanism is needed. For loss recovery, sensor nodes need to keep packets in their buffers until transmissions successfully complete. However, since sensor nodes have limited memory, pac...

In this article, we propose a novel loss recovery algorithm of transmission control protocol (TCP) using packet transmission order, which shows a steady loss recovery ability even though packet loss rate increases. This leads to a significant throughput increase of TCP with heavy packet loss. We have verified the performance increase of the new TCP under various environments such as a wireless ...

— Most previous models about wireless channel are proposed to capture long-time channel characteristics. However, when we combine group transmission with error correcting mechanisms, the steady-state probabilities are no longer accurate enough to depict the short-time loss states. In this paper, we propose a new analytical model for group transmission which can capture influences of initial cha...

abstract   introduction: conductive hearing loss attenuates and delays sound transmission in the middle ear. it can make variety of central auditory processing disorders; that persists even after resolve of peripheral auditory system problems. one of the aspects of central auditory processing is the temporal processing, which is important for understanding speech, including temporal resolution,...

A real−time adaptive rate control algorithm for video transmission is presented. The proposed algorithm aims to determine the optimal rate at which the video should be sent through the network in order to minimize the expected distortion while meeting the delay requirements. The packet loss rate is assumed to be a function of the transmission rate. The nodes of the network over which video pack...

A study has been conducted on the transmission loss of perforated plates at normal incidence. The investigation includes a theoretical analysis of the problem with validation through experimentation. The experiments comprised microphone measurements of transmission loss for 11 perforated plates with variable thickness, hole size, and porosity. The theoretical model is based on planar wave propa...

Low-loss hollow flexible metal/dielectric coated polycarbonate waveguides have been designed and fabricated for the maximal transmission of Terahertz radiation (THz). Attenuation characteristics of Terahertz radiation in Ag/Au coated waveguides with bore diameters 4.1 mm, 3.2 mm, 2 mm were studied at 215 μm wavelength and the maximal transmission was obtained by coupling the lowest loss TE11 mo...
