a filtering power divider/power combiner based on half mode substrate integrated waveguide technology for high power applications is proposed. this design includes one half mode substrate integrated waveguide cavity, one matched load, and four sections of quarter-wavelength transmission lines. the high isolation between output ports is obtained by combining the half mode substrate integrated wa...

a wireless sensor network consists of many inexpensive sensor nodes that can be used toconfidently extract data from the environment .nodes are organized into clusters and in each cluster all non-cluster nodes transmit their data only to the cluster-head .the cluster-head transmits all received data to the base station .because of energy limitation in sensor nodes and energy reduction in each d...

this study mainly focuses on enhancing the overall efficiency of gas transmission networks. the authors developed a model with detailed characteristics of compressor and pressure reduction stations. following this, they suggested three different systems with gas turbine including: organic rankine cycle (orc), air bottoming cycle (abc), and abc along with steam injection (si-abc). in addition, u...

Due to the increase of users the efficient usage of spectrum plays an important role in digital terrestrial television networks. In digital video broadcasting, local and global content are transmitted by single frequency network and multifrequency network respectively. Multifrequency network support transmission of global content and it consumes large spectrum. Similarly local content are well ...

Although network analysis has drawn considerable attention as a promising tool for disease ecology, empirical research has been hindered by limitations in detecting the occurrence of pathogen transmission (who transmitted to whom) within social networks. Using a novel approach, we utilize the genetics of a diverse microbe, Escherichia coli, to infer where direct or indirect transmission has occ...

providing a high-quality service for transmission and playing real-time voice conversations (voice streaming) over wireless ad-hoc networks is no mean feat. buffering together with adjusting the playout time of the packets is a receiver-side solution to overcome this challenge. in this paper, a new adaptive playout adjustment algorithm is proposed to stream the voice conversations over wireless...
