Seamless Infrastructure independent Multi Homed NEMO Handoff Using Effective and Timely IEEE 802.21 MIH triggers

Handoff performance of NEMO BS protocol with existent improvement proposals is still not sufficient for real time and QoS-sensitive applications and further optimizations are needed. When dealing with single homed NEMO, handoff latency and packet loss become irreducible all optimizations included, so that it is impossible to meet requirements of the above applications. Then, How to combine the different Fast handoff approaches remains an open research issue and needs more investigation. In this paper, we propose a new Infrastructure independent handoff approach combining multihoming and intelligent Make-Before-Break Handoff. Based on required Handoff time estimation, L2 and L3 handoffs are initiated using effective and timely MIH triggers, reducing so the anticipation time and increasing the probability of prediction. We extend MIH services to provide tunnel establishment and switching before link break. Thus, the handoff is performed in background with no latency and no packet loss while pingpong scenario is almost avoided. In addition, our proposal saves cost and power consumption by optimizing the time of simultaneous use of multiple interfaces. We provide also NS2 simulation experiments identifying suitable parameter values used for estimation and validating the proposed mode

SαS noise suppression for OFDM wireless communication in rayleight channel

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a form of multi-carrier transmission technique widely used in the modern wireless network to achieve high-speed data transmission with good spectral efficiency. However, in impulsive noise environement BER performances of these systems, originally designed for a Gaussian noise model, are much degraded. In this paper, a new symmetric-alpha-stable (SαS) noise suppression technique based conjointly on adaptive modulation, convolutional coding (AMC) and Recursive Least Square (RLS) filtering is presented. The proposed scheme is applied on OFDM system in Rayleigh fading channel. The transmissions are analyzed under different combinations of digital modulation schemes (BPSK, QPSK, 16-QAM, 64-QAM) and convolutional code rates (1/2, 2/3, 3/4). Simulation results show that our proposed hybrid technique provides effective impulsive noise cancelation in OFDM system and exhibits better BER performance

Double sliding window variance detection-based time-of-arrival estimation in ultra-wideband ranging systems

Ultra-wideband (UWB) ranging via time-of-arrival (TOA) estimation method has gained a lot of research interests because it can take full advantage of UWB capabilities. Energy detection (ED) based TOA estimation technique is widely used in the area due to its low cost, low complexity and ease of implementation. However, many factors affect the ranging performance of the ED-based methods, especially, non-line-of-sight (NLOS) condition and the integration interval. In this context, a new TOA estimation method is developed in this paper. Firstly, the received signal is denoised using a five-level wavelet decomposition, next, a double sliding window algorithm is applied to detect the change in the variance information of the received signal, the first path (FP) TOA is then calculated according to the first variance sharp increase. The simulation results using the CM1 and CM2 IEEE 802.15.4a channel models, prove that our proposed approach works effectively compared with the conventional ED-based methods

Regio- and stereoselective synthesis of novel isoxazolidine heterocycles by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition between C-phenyl-N-methylnitrone and substituted alkenes. Experimental and DFT investigation of selectivity and mechanism

International audienceA series of isoxazolidine heterocycles was synthesized through the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition (13DC) reaction of C-phenyl-N-methylnitrone with different substituted alkenes. The structures and stereochemistry of the cycloadducts were determined by spectroscopic methods. These 13DC reactions are characterized by complete regioselectivity and high stereoselectivity. The molecular mechanism, reactivity and selectivity of these 13DC reactions have been investigated by means of transition state theory and reactivity indices derived from conceptual DFT using DFT methods at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level of theory. The obtained results indicate that these cycloaddition reactions take place through a one-step synchronous mechanism with a non-polar mechanism and high activation energies. The theoretical results are in agreement with the experimental findings

A theoretical study of the regio- and stereoselectivities of non-polar 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction between <i>C</i>-diethoxyphosphoryl-<i>N</i>-methylnitrone and <i>N</i>-(2-fluorophenyl)acrylamide

<p>The 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions (13DC) of <i>C</i>-diethoxyphosphoryl-<i>N</i>-methylnitrone and N-(2-fluorophenyl) acrylamide have been studied using density functional theory (DFT) calculations at B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory. Our calculations show that this 13DC reaction takes place with complete <i>ortho</i> regioselectivity with <i>endo</i> stereoselectivity, which favours kinetically the formation of the <i>ortho</i>–<i>endo</i> cycloadduct, in agreement with the experimental observations. The inclusion of solvent effects does not modify the gas-phase selectivities but slightly decreases the reactivity of the reagents. Analysis of the bond order and charge transfer at the transition states indicates that this 13DC reaction takes place <i>via</i> a one-step asynchronous mechanism. Analysis of the DFT global reactivity indices and the Parr functions of the reagents allow us to provide an explanation of the regioselectivity of this 13DC reaction.</p> <p></p
