In Wireless Sensor Network, sensed data reflects two types of correlations of physical attributes: spatial and temporal. In this paper, a scheme named, Adaptive Prediction Strategy with ClusTering (APSCT) is proposed. In APSCT, a data-driven clustering and grey prediction model is used to exploit both the correlations. APSCT minimizes the transmission of messages in the network. However, the use of prediction includes additional computation overhead. There is a trade-off between prediction accuracy and energy consumption in computation and communication in wireless networks. This paper also gives an approach to calculate the upper and lower bound of the prediction interval which is used to evaluate different confidence levels and provides an energy-efficient sensor environment. Simulation is carried out on real-world data collected by Intel Berkeley Lab and results are compared with existing approaches.
The recent developments in collaborative search, acquisition, and tracking have hoisted the geographical barrier. The network between unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) is one such collaboration, which comprises battery‐powered static sensor nodes that act as sources and sinks and UAVs that act as relays. This collaborative network presents with opportunities and advantages, but at the same time, configuration of such networks is an arduous task. The WSN nodes are characterized by constant depleting power. Their network itself requires constant management and reconfiguration. These requisites can be slaked through the formation of an efficient data dissemination algorithm, which acclimates according to the network state. Considering this, a data dissemination approach is presented in this paper, which constructs a virtual topology predicated on the charge of WSN nodes utilizing software‐defined networks (SDNs) through UAVs. The topology is constantly monitored and reconfigured when required. The aerial nodes are equipped with multiple‐input multiple‐output (MIMO) antennas in order to facilitate simultaneous communication with the ground nodes, the base station, and the SDN controller. An efficient sleep timer and backoff counter strategies are also utilized by the proposed approach. The SDN controller facilitates the topology formation and maintenance of a sleep timer and a backoff counter. The proposed model is compared with clustered hierarchical layouts and hexagonal cell layouts through the network simulations. The results suggest significant improvements in the proposed model for various metrics, such as lifetime, delay, latency, delivery ratio, and throughput in comparison with the existing solutions. 相似文献
Numerous research articles exist for backbone formation in wireless networks; however, they cannot be applied straightforward in cognitive radio network (CRN) due to its peculiar characteristics. Since virtual backbone has many advantages such as reduced routing overhead, dynamic maintenance, and fast convergence speed, we intend to propose a backbone formation protocol in CRN. In this paper, we propose a tree‐based backbone formation protocol along with its maintenance. Our protocol is based on non‐iterative approach, thus leading towards limited message overhead and faster convergence speed. The proposed algorithm first forms the tree by maintaining the parent‐child relationship, and second, the parent nodes are connected together to form the virtual backbone. In the end, we evaluate the performance our protocol through extensive simulations. 相似文献
Multiferroic materials have driven significant research interest due to their promising technological potential. Developing new room‐temperature multiferroics and understanding their fundamental properties are important to reveal unanticipated physical phenomena and potential applications. Here, a new room temperature multiferroic nanocomposite comprised of an ordered ferrimagnetic spinel α‐LiFe5O8 (LFO) and a ferroelectric perovskite BiFeO3 (BFO) is presented. It is observed that lithium (Li)‐doping in BFO favors the formation of LFO spinel as a secondary phase during the synthesis of LixBi1?xFeO3 ceramics. Multimodal functional and chemical imaging methods are used to map the relationship between doping‐induced phase separation and local ferroic properties in both the BFO‐LFO composite ceramics and self‐assembled nanocomposite thin films. The energetics of phase separation in Li doped BFO and the formation of BFO‐LFO composites are supported by first principles calculations. These findings shed light on Li's role in the formation of a functionally important room temperature multiferroic and open a new approach in the synthesis of light element doped nanocomposites for future energy, sensing, and memory applications. 相似文献

In this article, a small‐printed Bluetooth/LTE/UWB/X‐band/Ku‐band monopole antenna with high rejection triple band‐notch is presented. Notched bands include WiMAX (IEEE802.16 3.30‐3.80 GHz), WLAN IEEE802.11a/h/j/n (5.15‐5.35 GHz, 5.25‐5.35 GHz, 5.47‐5.725 GHz, and 5.725‐5.825 GHz), and downlink satellite system (7.1‐7.9 GHz). By including inverted T‐shaped stub and etching two C‐shaped slots on the radiating patch, triple band‐notch function is obtained with measured high band rejection (VSWR = 14.59 at 3.69 GHz, VSWR = 39.40 at 5.42 GHz, and VSWR = 6.43 at 7.57 GHz) and covers a UWB useable fractional bandwidth of 157.75% (2.285‐19.35 GHz = 17.065 GHz). Reconfigurable characteristics are obtained using PIN diodes, which control the individual notched bands. Proposed antenna is printed on Rogers RT/duroid5880 substrate with compact dimensions of 20 × 22 mm2. Proposed antenna finds its applications for Bluetooth, LTE, UWB, other multiple wireless applications for close range radar (8‐12 GHz) in X‐band, and satellite communication in Ku‐Band with omnidirectional pattern in H‐plane. 相似文献

Resurgence of nuisance benthic algae in the Great Lakes, despite substantial efforts to reduce phosphorus loading, has stimulated renewed interest in exploring the diverse drivers of near-shore water quality. Interestingly, broad similarity in the underlying causes of shore fouling by benthic algae in Lakes Ontario, Erie, and Michigan appear to contrast with Lake Huron where system productivity and dreissenid abundance are lower. While total phosphorus was the primary predictor of chlorophyll concentrations (70–90% of variation) in the water column, we identified a series of spatial patterns that underpin this relationship (up to 28% of variation) and which integrate catchment processes, tributary influences, shoreline complexity, and distance from shore. Dreissenid mussels were the most important predictors of benthic algae cover and biomass in our models, explaining between 20 and 52% of variation. Spatial patterns explained an additional 21–48% of the variation in benthic algae cover and biomass and highlight the importance of site-specific spatial heterogeneity in benthic algae growth. Our results are consistent with the nearshore shunt hypothesis, wherein higher algal cover and biomass coincided with higher mussel density and biomass, although correlative effects with lake depth and loss of algal and mussel biomass due to physical disturbance must also be considered. These results underscore the difficulty associated with identifying the potential drivers of nearshore water quality as the diverse processes of nutrient loading, changes in catchment land use, and ecosystem change associated with invasion by dreissenids all vary in relative influence over a range of spatial scales. 相似文献
In the present study, skill of an extended range forecast system has been evaluated for identifying droughts over central India 20-days in advance. Rainfall forecasts from 44 ensemble members of the forecast system developed Indian Institute of Tropical Meteorology (IITM), Pune have been used to prepare probabilistic rainfall forecasts. It is seen that the uncertainties in the forecasts (in terms of ensemble spread) increases from day-5 to day 20. As the focus of the study is for drought predictions, forecasts in the bins 0-5 mm/5 day and 5-25 mm/5 day (no rain or less rain) were studied in detail. It is found that the modeling system has a tendency to over-forecast rainfall probabilities. With bias correction, the forecasts become more reliable. Various drought indices were computed using the mean of the forecast distribution up to 20-days in advance. Standardized precipitation index (SPI) computed using Gamma and Pearson type-III distributions are similar in the study region. It was found that these are in reasonable agreement with those from observations. Probabilistic forecasts of standardized precipitation index (SPI) were made and the relative operating characteristics (ROC) scores indicate that the forecasted SPI values are suitable for application. 相似文献
