in recent years, wavelet packet modulation ofdm (wpm-ofdm) signals have been introduced for radar applications. these signals have important properties such as inherent high range resolution and high resistance of radar system against jamming reception. this paper investigates the problem of designing these family of signals according to the following criteria: constrained maximization of the d...

in this paper, we study the problem of minimizing the ratio of two quadratic functions subject to a quadratic constraint. first we introduce a parametric equivalent of the problem. then a bisection and a generalized newton-based method algorithms are presented to solve it. in order to solve the quadratically constrained quadratic minimization problem within both algorithms, a semidefinite optim...

Hastening the power industry toward smart operation juxtaposed with the unrivaled restructuring and privatization agendas, some of the ubiquitous smart grid advantages are glanced more and more. Recently, the vehicle to grid (V2G) technology, as one of these beneficial aspects, has found a worldwide attention due to its important advantages. The V2G technology can raise the system operation eff...

Production cost and performance depend on the existing resource configuration and optimization, which play a fundamental role in occupying the dominant position in the aggressive market competition for the manufacturing enterprises. The existing resource configuration and optimization is implemented at workshop level of operation activity, and thus, it is of significance in strengthening the ma...

This paper develops an optimization framework for self-organizing networks (SON). The objective is to ensure efficient network operation by a joint optimization of different SON functionalities, which includes capacity, coverage and load balancing. Based on the axiomatic framework of monotone and strictly subhomogeneous function, we formulate an optimization problem for the uplink and propose a...

A new particle filter algorithm based on new Clone particle swarm optimization(NCPSO-PF) is presented in this paper in order to solve the problem of low precision and complicated calculation of particle filter based on particle swarm optimization algorithm(PSO-PF). The algorithm enables the particles to fit the environment better and then reach the goal of global optimization through orthogonal...

in this paper, a robust model presented is developed for hub covering flow problem in which hubs have capacity. this problem has two objective functions converting to a single-objective problem by using weighting method. firstly, the problem will be formulated in a certain case. then, by considering the demand as a non-random variable, it will be modeled by robust optimization. finally, by usin...

The traveling salesman problem (TSP) is the problem of finding the shortest tour through all the nodes that a salesman has to visit. The TSP is probably the most famous and extensively studied problem in the field of combinatorial optimization. Because this problem is an NP-hard problem, practical large-scale instances cannot be solved by exact algorithms within acceptable computational times. ...

This paper presents a systematic approach to address the dynamic optimization of integrated operation strategies for the building VAV system and night ventilation. The objective is to minimize the energy consumption of the cooling coil and fans in a typical summer day. In the optimization scheme, the physical model is developed per differential algebraic equations (DAEs). The simultaneous collo...
