As an important coexistence technology, channel hopping can reduce the interference among Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs). However, it simultaneously brings some issues, such as energy waste, long latency and communication interruptions, etc. In this paper, we propose an enhanced channel hopping mechanism that allows multiple WBANs coexisted in the same channel. In order to evaluate the coe...

Frequency-hopping communication has the capability to resist narrowband interference, which is in direct proportion to the hopping rate. In frequency-hopping system, interference signals exist in partial de-hopping frequency-hopping signals, equivalent to time-varying interference signals existed in the frequency-hopping signals. Through integrating the diversity combining techniques of fast fr...

The properties of the water network in concentrated HCl acid pools nanometer-sized reverse nonionic micelles were probed with TeraHertz absorption, dielectric relaxation spectroscopy, and reactive force field simulations capable describing proton hopping mechanisms. We identify that only at a critical micelle size W0=9 do solvated complexes form pool, accompanied by change mechanism from Grotth...

Recently, it was argued that a ferromagnetic (FM) insulating phase can be induced by novel {\it interorbital} hopping mechanism. Here, we study the stability range of this FM under modifications in crystal fields and electronic correlation strength, constructing theoretical diagram. A plethora states is unveiled, including Mott insulator (MI), orbital-selective (OSMP), several anferromagnetic (...

Proton transport across lipid membranes is a fundamental aspect of biological energy transduction (metabolism). This function is mediated by a Grotthuss mechanism involving proton hopping along hydrogen-bonded networks embedded in membrane-spanning proteins. Using molecular simulations, we have explored the structural, dynamic, and thermodynamic properties giving rise to long-range proton trans...

All existing anti-censorship systems for the Web rely on proxies to grant clients access to censored information. Therefore, they face the proxy discovery problem: how can clients discover the proxies without having the censor discover and block these proxies? To avoid widespread discovery and blocking, proxies must not be widely published and should be discovered in-band. In this paper, we pre...

The low-temperature Hall resistivity rxy of La2/3A1/3MnO3 single crystals ~where A stands for Ca, Pb, and Ca, or Sr! can be separated into ordinary and anomalous contributions, giving rise to ordinary and anomalous Hall effects, respectively. However, no such decomposition is possible near the Curie temperature which, in these systems, is close to metal-to-insulator transition. Rather, for all ...

Understanding Li diffusion in solid conductors is essential for the next generation Li batteries. Here we show that density-based clustering of the trajectories computed using molecular dynamics simulations helps elucidate the Li diffusion mechanism within the Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) crystal lattice. This unsupervised learning method recognizes lattice sites, is able to give the site type, and can ...
