Efficient power and subchannel allocation methods are required for orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) based femtocell networks to improve the capacity of the system. This paper considers a joint subchannel and power allocation algorithm with capacity maximization for downlink of an OFDMA based femtocell networks. In the proposed algorithm subchannel allocation is first perfor...

This paper proposes a tabu search based method for optimal allocation of FACTS in distribution systems. Distributed generation is wildly spread to smooth operation and planning in power systems so that wind power generation units are connected to distribution systems. Although they contribute to the improvement of operation and planning in distribution systems, they often bring about difficulti...

Vectored Multiple Access Channels (MAC) have attracted a lot of interest during the past few years. The optimal structure of vectored MAC in the uplink is based on the Successive Interference Canceller-Minimum Mean Square Error (SIC-MMSE). For equal weights and zero Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) gap, the optimal transmit covariance matrices are found by iterative waterfilling. However, practical ...

Increasing the short circuit current due to the penetration of distributed generations (DGs) in various voltage levels and meshed topology is a basic problem in power systems. Using fault current limiter (FCL) is an efficient approach to mitigate the exceeded short circuit levels. In this paper, a new approach is presented for multiple FCLs locating to decrease short circuit levels in meshed ne...

This paper focuses on the optimal relay selection and power allocation issue, which studies the communication between SS (Secondary Source) and two SDs (Secondary Destinations) through single relay in CR (cooperative cognitive communication) system. Sufficiently takes the multi-antenna relay, primary-secondary users coexisting, and AF (Amplify and Forward) relay mode as the researching backgrou...

To meet the ever-increasing demands of mobile traffic, femtocells are considered as one of the promising solutions. In this paper, we study a sensing-based resource allocation scenario in cognitive femtocell networks and present an efficient distributed imperfect-spectrum-sensing-based resource allocation (DIRA) algorithm while considering the channel uncertainty to maximize the total data rate...

simultaneous routing and resource allocation has been considered in wireless networks for its performance improvement. in this paper we propose a cross-layer optimization framework for worst-case queue length minimization in some type of fdma based wireless networks, in which the the data routing and the power allocation problem are jointly optimized with fuzzy distributed h∞ control strategy ....

In this paper, we propose an optimal relay power allocation of an Amplify-and-Forward relay networks with nonlinear power amplifiers. Based on Bussgang Linearization Theory, we depict the non-linear amplifying process into a linear system, which lets analyzing system performance easier. To obtain spatial diversity, we design a complete practical framework of a non-linear distortion aware receiv...

We consider a joint rate and power control problem in a wireless data traffic relay network with fading channels. The optimization problem is formulated in terms of power and rate selection, and link transmission scheduling. The objective is to seek high aggregate utility of the relay node when taking into account buffer load management and power constraints. The optimal solution for a single t...
