Recently, communication between vehicles has been a popular research topic. IEEE defines the IEEE 802.11p/1609.x protocol stack, also known as the Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment (WAVE) as vehicle-to-infrastructure and vehicle-to-vehicle radio communication standard. Lots of researchers from academia and industry have…

In the near future vehicular networks (VANETs) based on wireless technology will be part of our daily lives. VANETs enable vehicles that are not necessarily within the same transmission range to communicate with each other. They also allow vehicles to connect to Roadside…

Ultraviolet (UV) communication enables non-line-of-sight (NLOS) outdoor wireless connectivity and is particularly desirable to relax or eliminate pointing and tracking requirements of infrared links. The main two degrading factors in UV links are high path loss and intersymbol interference resulting…

A stretchy classification methodology adopting multivariate polynomials is proposed in this paper. Through minimization of an approximated p-norm of the parameter vector subject to classification error constraints, an approximated minimum norm solution in dual form is derived for under-determined systems.…

An optimal wideband gain flattened hybrid erbium-doped fiber amplifier/fiber Raman amplifier (EDFA/RFA) with the transmission of sixteen channels in C band ranging from 1528.77 nm to 1554.37 nm in wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) has been modeled to obtain maximum gain…
