Optimal Achievable Transmission Capacity Scheme for Full-Duplex Multihop Wireless Networks.

Full-duplex (FD) communication has been attractive as the breakthrough technology for improving attainable spectral efficiency since the 5G mobile communication system. Previous research focused on self-interference cancellation and medium access control (MAC) protocol to realize the FD system in wireless networks. This paper proposes an optimal achievable transmission capacity (OATC) scheme for capacity optimization in the FD multihop wireless networks.

GridAttackAnalyzer: A Cyber Attack Analysis Framework for Smart Grids.

The smart grid is one of the core technologies that enable sustainable economic and social developments. In recent years, various cyber attacks have targeted smart grid systems, which have led to severe, harmful consequences. It would be challenging to build a real smart grid system for cybersecurity experimentation and validation purposes.

Study of Human Thermal Comfort for Cyber-Physical Human Centric System in Smart Homes.

An environmental thermal comfort model has previously been quantified based on the predicted mean vote (PMV) and the physical sensors parameters, such as temperature, relative humidity, and air speed in the indoor environment. However, first, the relationship between environmental factors and physiology parameters of the model is not well investigated in the smart home domain. Second, the model that is not mainly for an individual human model leads to the failure of the thermal comfort system to fulfill the human's comfort preference.

A Novel Human Activity Recognition and Prediction in Smart Home Based on Interaction.

Smart Homes are generally considered the final solution for living problem, especially for the health care of the elderly and disabled, power saving, etc. Human activity recognition in smart homes is the key to achieving home automation, which enables the smart services to automatically run according to the human mind. Recent research has made a lot of progress in this field; however, most of them can only recognize default activities, which is probably not needed by smart homes services.

Collaborative Resource Management for Negotiable Multi-Operator Small Cell Networks.

The ubiquitous coverage/connectivity requirement of wireless cellular networks has shifted mobile network operators' (MNOs) interest toward dense deployment of small cells with coverage areas that are much smaller as compared to macrocell base stations (MBSs). Multi-operator small cells could provide virtualization of network resources (infrastructure and spectrum) and enable its efficient utilization, i.e.

A Design of Overlapped Chunked Code over Compute-and-Forward for Multi-Source Multi-Relay Networks.

This paper investigates the design of overlapped chunked codes (OCC) for multi-source multi-relay networks where a physical-layer network coding approach, compute-and-forward (CF) based on nested lattice codes (NLC), is applied for the simultaneous transmissions from the sources to the relays. This code is called OCC/CF. In this paper, OCC is applied before NLC before transmitting for each source.

Marginal Contribution-Based Distributed Subchannel Allocation in Small Cell Networks.

The paper presents a game theoretic solution for distributed subchannel allocation problem in small cell networks (SCNs) analyzed under the physical interference model. The objective is to find a distributed solution that maximizes the welfare of the SCNs, defined as the total system capacity. Although the problem can be addressed through best-response (BR) dynamics, the existence of a steady-state solution, i.
