Abstract This paper proposes a multi-criteria decision-making method for new energy power station site selection based on fuzzy comprehensive analysis method. It is applied to make decisions the target location when selecting address building station, ensure reasonableness of corresponding weights each index, and give reasonable scientific suggestions decision-makers obtain expected results. We...

This issue contains six papers that were presented in preliminary form at the 5th Workshop on Algorithmic Methods and Models for Optimization of Railways (ATMOS 2005), held at Palma de Mallorca, Spain, October 7, 2005 in conjunction with ALGO 2005. These papers are representative of several areas of research within the scope of ATMOS: rolling stock circulation and engine assignment, station loc...

This paper analyses an alternative traffic queuing model for mobile communications systems. According to the proposed model, the queue of handover calls is separated to each of the used transceivers of a base transceiver station that covers a particular area. Fixed Channel Assignment and TDMA are considered, while the proposed technique is compared to the classic queuing model. The comparison r...

This project deals with the development of equations from simulation data to assign momentum to muons moving through the endcap region of the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the Large Hadron Collider at The European Center for Nuclear Research. The layout of the CMS experiment, the endcap detector operation, and the details of developing momentum-assignment equations are described. A ...

A simple method of substantial reduction (up to 1-2 orders) of power of base station and mobile unit transmitters used in mobile communication systems by the use of a self-phased array antenna which employs a pilot signal has been proposed. The increase in talk time and the reduction of battery weight by this method is also possible. Estimations of transmitted power reduction and examples of fr...

Due to its fixed assignment nature, the well-known time division multiple access (TDMA) protocol suffers from poor performance when the offered traffic is bursty. In this paper, an adaptive TDMA protocol, which is capable of operating efficiently under bursty traffic conditions, is introduced. According to the proposed protocol, the station which is granted permission to transmit at each time s...

We consider the problem of finding the optimal assignment of tasks to a team of robots when the costs associated with the tasks may vary. This arises often because robots typically update their cost estimates and re-compute task assignments to deal with dynamic situations (e.g., the addition of new robots to the team, arrival of new tasks, or the revelation of new information). This paper descr...

In this paper we consider distributed power control in a multicell wireless data system and study the effect of pricing transmit power. Drawing on our earlier work in [1], we formulate the QoS of a data user via a utility function measured in bits per Joule. We consider distributed power control, modeled as a non-cooperative game, where users maximize their utilities in a multicell system. Base...

A Femtocell is a small cellular base station; the concept of deploying femtocells over macrocell has recently attracted growing interests in academia, industry, and standardization forums. Various technical challenges towards mass deployment of femtocells have been addressed in recent literature. Interference mitigation between neighboring femtocells and between the femtocell and macrocell is c...
