Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are expected to be an integral part of wireless networks, and determining collision-free trajectories for multiple UAVs while satisfying requirements connectivity with ground base stations (GBSs) is a challenging task. In this paper, we consider non-cooperative multi-UAV scenarios, in which need fly from initial locations destinations, collision avoidance, connec...

BACKGROUND Malaria, an Anopheles-borne parasitic disease, remains a major global health problem causing illness and death that disproportionately affects developing countries. Despite the incidence of malaria, which remains one of the most severe infections of human populations, there is no licensed vaccine against this life-threatening disease. In this context, we decided to explore the expres...

The generalized spectral subtraction algorithm (GBSS), which has extraordinary ability in background noise reduction, is historically one of the first approaches used for speech enhancement and dereverberation. However, not been applied to de-noise room impulse response (RIR) extend reverberation decay range. application GBSS this study stated as an optimization problem, that is, subtracting le...

Starch accumulation and the seven metabolic enzyme activities in sorghum grains with different starch contents were investigated under field conditions Shenyang Agricultural University. The results indicated that Tieza17 (high content variety) Liaoza11 (low could be fitted logistic equation. of sucrose synthase (SS), soluble (SSS) uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGPase) similar t...

Massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) is a promising technology for enabling cellu-lar-connected unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communications in the future. Equipped with full-dimensional large arrays, ground base stations (GBSs) can apply adaptive fine-grained 3D beamforming to mitigate strong interference between high-altitude UAVs and low-altitude terrestrial users, thus significantl...

This letter studies a cellular-connected unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) scenario, in which UAV user communicates with ground base stations (GBSs) cellular uplink by sharing the spectrum users (GUs). To deal severe air-to-ground (A2G) co-channel interference, we consider an adaptive interference cancellation (IC) approach, each GBS can decode GU’s messages adaptively switching between modes of IC...

Plants contain at least five subfamilies of starch synthases, granule bound starch synthase (GBSS) and starch synthases I, II, III, and IV (SSI, SSII, SSIII, SSIV). In this work, two members of SSIII and SSIV, respectively, were cloned and designated OsSSIII-1/-2 and OsSSIV-1/-2 in rice. Together with six other previously reported genes, the SS gene family in rice therefore is known to be dupli...

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) enabled communications is a novel and attractive area of research in cellular communications. It provides several degrees of freedom in time, space and it can be used for multiple purposes (self-healing, offloading, relaying or coverage extension). This is why wide deployment of UAVs has the potential to be integrated in the upcoming 5G standard. In this paper, w...

OBJECTIVE Recently, the importance of non-pharmacological therapies for dementia has come to the fore. In the present study, we examined the curative effects of aromatherapy in dementia in 28 elderly people, 17 of whom had Alzheimer's disease (AD). METHODS After a control period of 28 days, aromatherapy was performed over the following 28 days, with a wash out period of another 28 days. Aroma...
