Scheduling Algorithms for Packet-Oriented MAC Protocols in Wireless Multimedia Systems

Future generation wireless multimediacommunications will require efficient Medium AccessControl (MAC) protocols able to guarantee suitable Qualityof Service (QoS) levels for different traffic classes whileachieving a high utilization of radio resources. This paperproposes a new scheduling technique to be adopted at the MAClevel in wireless access systems, named Dynamic Scheduling-Time DivisionDuplexing (DS-TDD), that efficiently managesvideo, voice, Web and background traffics. A theoretical approachis proposed in this paper to evaluate the DS-TDD performance withvoice and Web traffics. Simulation results have permitted tohighlight the following promising characteristics of the DS-TDDscheme: (i) a high capacity of real-time traffics isattained with a QoS insensitive to Web and background trafficloads; (ii) a high throughput can be guaranteed whilepreserving the QoS levels of the different traffic classes;(iii) heavier downlink traffic loads do not modify the QoSof uplink traffics. Finally, extensive comparisons with differentscheduling schemes proposed in the literature have permitted tohighlight the better performanceof DS-TDD.

研究了高温固溶后降温处理工艺对中强可使预析出LC52和7039铝合金的组织、时效硬化和应力腐蚀的影响。金相观察发现,高温预析出可优先在晶界处产生,并提高随后时效状态下晶界析出相的不连续分布程度,温度降低到一定程度晶内和晶界产生大量析出。合金拉伸性能和应力腐蚀结果表明,预析出在保持强度和塑性的同时,可提高抗应力腐蚀性能。而预析出温度降低,合金强度呈下降趋势。     

Analysis of Multiphase Flow and Heat Transfer: Pressure Buildup in an Unsaturated Porous Slab Exposed to Hot Gas

This study develops a mathematical model for coupled heat and mass transfer in an unsaturated porous slab exposed to a flowing hot gas. Effects of the initial saturation conditions on associated variables, i.e., total pressure, temperature, moisture content, and multiphase flow, are studied. The Newton-Raphson method based on a finite volume technique is applied. This study emphasizes the influence of initial saturation level and gravitational effect in heat and multiphase flow phenomena associated with this system. Gravity enhances the downward flow of liquid within the porous slab. Pressure buildup occurs near the interface between the wet and the dry zone. However, it appears that the order of magnitude to the total pressure is small. This study explains the fundamental mechanism of multiphase flow that involves heat and mass transfer in a heated unsaturated porous slab.

FLOW OF NEWTONIAN FLUIDS THROUGH SINUSOID ALLY CONSTRICTED TUBES. NUMERICAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS

Numerical and experimental predictions of pressure drops in the flow of Newtonian fluids through sinusoidally constricted tubes (SCT) are carried out. The numerical evaluations analyzed in this work are obtained from the following methods: Geometric Iteration (GJM), Geometric Iteration with First and Second Upwinds (GIM1, GIM2), Successive Over Relaxation by Line (SORBLM), Global Galerkin Spectral Method (GGSM), Collocation (CM) and Dufort-Frankel (DFM). The GIM1, GIM2 and SORBLM are applied to SCT and explained in this work. The other methods have been previously reported in the literature with the same purpose. Experiments are accomplished for constrictions of approximately 40,60 and 80% of the average tube diameter and results compare well with numerical predictions of the steady flow. It is concluded that special attention should be given to evaluations of the friction factor ƒ for Reynolds numbers Re between the onsets of flow separation and turbulence due to flow instability. Finally, the SCT as a model for porous media (PM) is discussed.     

Finite Element Analysis of a Moving Boundary Value Problem

A finite element formulation and the solution of a set of nonlinear coupled heat and mass transfer equations for a two-phase system with a moving evaporation interface is presented. The interface condition takes into account the moisture transfer balance at the moving boundary. The finite element results were compared with existing results for a single phase system for model validation. In the two-phase system, the movement of evaporation front has an appreciable effect on the temperature and moisture distribution inside the porous medium during drying. The effect of the nondimensional heat of vapourization parameter γ on the evaporation front, temperature and moisture distribution in porous medium was studied. The higher the value of γ, the slower is the movement of the evaporation front. The temperature decreased and the moisture content increased as the nondimensional vapourization parameter γ increased. This model has potential applications in studying the heat and mass transfer characteristics in food and biomaterials.

波在PTL介质中传播的旅行时反演

本文对Byun(1990)的横向各向同性介质的旅行时反演方法作了两点改进:其一是根据优化后的V_r值计算一个初始的F值,然后再根据这个初始值进行最小均方误差分析;其二是对初始值进行优化分析时,提出用测量值(或由式(4)和式(10)计算的理论值)作为实际值进行拟合,而Byun的方法是用式(11)的计算来得到一个实际值。理论模型证明:本文所述方法有一个比较宽的适应性,而Byun方法只在弱各向异性时才可以得到较精确的结果。
