Radio Communications

In the last decades the restless evolution of information and communication technologies (ICT) brought to a deep transformation of our habits. The growth of the Internet and the advances in hardware and software implementations modified our way to communicate and to share information. In this book, an overview of the major issues faced today by researchers in the field of radio communications is given through 35 high quality chapters written by specialists working in universities and research centers all over the world. Various aspects will be deeply discussed: channel modeling, beamforming, multiple antennas, cooperative networks, opportunistic scheduling, advanced admission control, handover management, systems performance assessment, routing issues in mobility conditions, localization, web security. Advanced techniques for the radio resource management will be discussed both in single and multiple radio technologies; either in infrastructure, mesh or ad hoc networks

Evolutionary FCMAC-BYY applied to stream data analysis

A data stream is an ordered sequence of instances that can be read only once or a small number of times using limited computing and storage capabilities. Stream data analysis is a critical issue in many application areas such as network fraud detection, stock market prediction, and web searches. In this research, our previously proposed FCMAC-BYY, that uses Bayesian Ying-Yang (BYY) learning in the fuzzy cerebellar model articulation controller(FCMAC), will be advanced by evolutionary computation and dynamic rule construction. The developed FCMAC-EBYY has been applied to a real-time stream data analysis problem of traffic flow prediction. The experimental results illustrate that FCMAC-EBYY is indeed capable of producing better performance than other representative neuro-fuzzy systems
