Beamforming is an essential requirement to combat high pathloss and to improve signal-to-noise ratio during initial cell discovery in future millimeter wave cellular networks. The choice of an appropriate beamforming is directly coupled with its energy consumption. The energy consumption is even of more concern at a battery limited mobile station (MS). In this work, we provide an energy consump...

To assess whether China’s emissions will peak around 2030, we forecast energy consumption and carbon emissions in China. We use an agent-based model driven by enterprises’ innovation. Results show some differences in both energy consumption peaks and carbon emission peaks when we compare trends at different levels. We find that carbon emissions and energy consumption will peak in 2027 and 2028,...

in this study, 10 normal volunteers and 5 sports-trained paraplegics with lesions between t6 and l2 were studied whilst walking with axillary crutches and knee-anlde-foot orthoses. all subjects walked at their preferred speed on a figureof- eight track. normal subjects also walked at slower and faster speeds. oxygen consumption, heart rate and rating of perceived exertion were measured. in norm...

this paper investigates the possibility of both linear and nonlinear effects of energy consumption on economic growth in iran, using data for the period of 1959–2007 based on threshold regression. some previous studies support the view that energy consumption may promote economic growth. however, the conclusion drawn from this study suggests that such relationship exists only where there is a l...

in the recent years, renewable energy sources are an important component of world energy consumption. gdp is one of the main measures of a country’s economic activity. most of the studies examine the impact of renewable energy consumption on gdp with single equation model and the others use dynamic panel data. since the granger causality analysis’s findings of this paper establish bidirectional...

today, one of the biggest problems that gripped the banking sphere, the high cost of implementing advanced technologies and the efficient use of the hardware. cloud computing is the use of shared services on the internet provides a large role in developing the banking system, without the need for operating expenses including staffing, equipment, hardware and software reducing the cost of implem...

these days, limited energy resources, and also the cost of investment in new and renewable energy is very costly and uneconomical. in the industrial sector, especially energy-intensive industries such as steel, finding appropriate solutions to update the technology, production and reduce energy consumption in this sector is very important. the main aim of this study is the identification and ra...

sustainability in 19 different arab countries has been studied through investigating the relationship between economic development and energy consumption. data collected has been studied as a whole (total countries data) and as segregated data (oil exporting and oil importing countries data) i.e. three categories. the regression model used measures the effect of independent and control variable...

energy consumption has been essential to societies; because societies depend on the rising provisions of energy to meet their requirements for goods and services and endorse sustainable development. the major source of energy nowadays is oil; oil consumption is dependent on oil availability, production and price. several arab countries are considered as major suppliers of oil in the world; cons...

Cooperative spectrum sensing is a key function in cognitive radio networks in order to provide unused spectrum access opportunities and mitigate the impact of interference to the primary networks. Cooperative sensing can incur additional cooperation overhead, increased energy consumption, extra sensing time and delay in heterogeneous networks. In this paper, the sensing time period is optimized...
