The results show that it outperforms the standard LoRaWAN ADR algorithm in both the single ED and the multi ED scenarios, in terms of the packets reception rate (PRR) and the network throughput. Compared to the LoRaWAN ADR in 32 multi-ED scenarios, the proposed algorithm improves the ...
1. Introduction Eye-safe lasers in the 1.7 µm band have shown promising applications, such as a pump source for mid-infrared lasers [1] and a multiphoton fluorescence microscope [2]. However, lasing emissions in this band are generally hard to achieve due to the lack of optimal rare-...
One counter sets the sleep mode time interval set, while another wakes the device after another time interval. The maximum time delay for the Wi-Fi to enter/recover from sleep mode is estimated to be several hundred hours. The device can enter the sleep state either being in UDP or TCP ...

However, the incorporation of recycled fine aggregates in concrete was proven to enhance the environmental and economic performance. In this study, an extensive literature review based multi criteria decision making analysis framework was made to evaluate the effect of RFA on functional, environmental,...
Introduction Combined heat and power (CHP) units are regarded as one of the most promising low carbon technologies in solving energy-related problems, because they have many advantages when compared with other energy generation technologies [1]. First, compared to conventional energy generation systems...
