    Topological Interference Management With Transmitter Cooperation

    Interference networks with no channel state information at the transmitter except for the knowledge of the connectivity graph have been recently studied under the topological interference management framework. In this paper, we consider a similar problem with topological knowledge but in a distributed broadcast channel setting, i.e., a network where transmitter cooperation is enabled. We show that the topological information can also be exploited in this case to strictly improve the degrees of freedom (DoF) as long as the network is not fully connected, which is a reasonable assumption in practice. Achievability schemes from graph theoretic and interference alignment perspectives are proposed. Together with outer bounds built upon generator sequence, the concept of compound channel settings, and the relation to index coding, we characterize the symmetric DoF for the so-called regular networks with constant number of interfering links, and identify the sufficient and/or necessary conditions for the arbitrary network topologies to achieve a certain amount of symmetric DoF

    Mitigating adverse impacts of increased electric vehicle charging on distribution transformers

    There is a growing interest in electric transportation, and the number of electric vehicles (EVs) is increasing. The resulting increase in EV charging power demand has an adverse impact on the existing power grids, especially the distribution transformers. The repeated and continued overloading caused by EV charging can significantly reduce their operational life. This dissertation aims to comprehensively study the adverse impacts of EV charging on distribution transformers and provide robust and practical solutions to mitigate it. A typical North American secondary distribution system with different EV penetration levels and four realistic residential EV charging scenarios are used for the analyses. The IEEE Standard C57.91-2011 is used to quantify transformer life under different scenarios and to validate the efficacy of the proposed overloading mitigation strategies. It is observed that EV charging can have a significant impact on the life of distribution transformers. To mitigate the impact of EV charging on the distribution transformer, first, a practical solution based on reactive power compensation is proposed. The method is based on reducing the over- all transformer losses by providing a component of the residential reactive power demand through non-unity power factor operation of the EV charger. A centralized recursive control structure is proposed to compute and communicate the required reactive power values to the individual EVs. It is shown that the proposed technique increases the distribution transformer’s life by an average of nearly 47% in all four scenarios considered. Moreover, the proposed controller’s structure makes it effective even on low-bandwidth, high-latency communication networks. To verify this, the proposed controller’s stability under communication delays and its robustness against potential communication failures is also validated. This research also studies potential concerns about the charger’s reliability by non-unity power factor operation. Accordingly, an alternative overloading mitigation strategy is also proposed based on fixed charging current magnitude. This second method is shown to be more effective in reducing transformer overloading at the cost of a marginal decrease in the charging rate. Lastly, a high-level overview of the existing vehicle-to-grid communication standards is presented to provide a better context for practical implementation and identify potential challenges

    Exchange rate movements play substantial role in risk measurement and their effective management. Volatility in exchange rates has been quite large and it has affected sales as well as profit margins of multinationals in India. Based on statistic analysis, some suggestion have been drawn for improving functioning of forex exchange market in India.1. Most hedging instruments are required to cope up extreme volatility of INR against all major currencies of the world. 2. Steady liberalization of financial markets is need more attention on business who invest back in India. 3. Promotion of invoicing of trade in domestic currency will be extremely helpful and beneficial to cope up with extreme volatility. 4. There has been wide progress and enhancement of INR market across globe especially in Dubai, Singapore, London and New York, so it is need to try relocate of offshore activities on shore. 5. RBI has taken a number of steps in the recent past to liberalize currency futures market to obviate/reduce the need for the NDF market. 6. There is need for effective coalition between OTC and exchange traded markets for currency futures. 7. More focus should be to advocate the importance and practicability of risk management techniques in particular using options. 8. There is need to develop strict monitoring mechanism by liberalizing open position limits of banks

    Fluorescent Pseudomonas are known for their plant growth promoting and disease protection abilities. In past years, a number of studies have focused on how these bacteria suppress disease and induce resistance. They are known to produce antibiotics and siderophores, promote growth, and induce systemic resistance in the host plant. This bacterium has come out as a model organism for ecological studies going on in rhizosphere and for studying plant-beneficial microbe interaction. This review focuses on the current state of knowledge on biocontrol potential of fluorescent Pseudomonas strains and the mechanisms adopted by them

    Multinational firms have their revenue linked in number of currencies and their upside and downside movements can affect overall efficiency of firms. Purpose of the research are to ascertain the correlation between exchange rate movements, to ascertain relative change in value of currency over period of time, to suggest measures to cope up volatility of exchange rate movements and for effective management of forex exchange market. Methods. The analysis of each data set of exchange rate in detail to have insight of their mean, median, mode, skewness, kurtosis. An attempt has been made to drive out trend of movements and plot that in line diagram and correlation and other descriptive statistics have been calculated using SPSS software. Results. The Pearson’s correlation value is close to 1 in almost all cases, it indicates that there is a strong relationship between two variables. CAD with INR are positively skewed whereas USD, GBP, JPY are negatively skewed with INR. INR movements in CAD, JPY, USD and GBP have correlation indicating that all companies having transactions globally can predict that upward movement in one currency affects the movement of another currency. Discussion. Based on above analysis, some suggestion have been drawn for improving functioning of forex exchange market in India.Since there is great volatility in exchange rate movements, risk is associated with every upside and downside of exchange rate and there is need for incorporation of effective and sound hedging mechanism so as to cope up with this risk and safeguard multinationals and big business houses against forex risk .Rupee movements in Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, US dollar and British Pound have correlation indicating that all companies having transactions globally can predict that upward movement in one currency affects the movement of another currency. Based on above analysis, some suggestion have been drawn out so as to come out with some concrete parameters for improving functioning of forex exchange market in India. 1) More and more hedging instruments are required to cope up extreme volatility of Indian rupee against all major currencies of the world. 2) Steady liberalization of financial markets is need of the hour by fetching more attention on corporate and business houses who invest back in India. 3) Promotion of invoicing of trade in domestic currency will be extremely helpful and beneficial for all sectors of economy so as to cope up with extreme volatility. 4) There has been wide progress and enhancement of rupee market across globe especially in Dubai, Singapore, London and New York , so it is need of the hour to try and relocate offshore activities onshore. RBI has taken a number of steps in the recent past to liberalize currency futures market to obviate/reduce the need for the NDF market. 5) There is need for effective coalition between OTC and exchange traded markets for currency futures 6) More Use of Options should be advocated and more focus should be on conducting seminars and workshops to teach and advocate the importance and practicability of risk management techniques. 7) Open ended foreign exchange positions are more prone to risk and there is need to develop strict monitoring mechanism by liberalizing open position limits of banks

    Effective developed technique of hedging are providing the chance to mitigate risk, to concentrate on main business activities and to be in win-situation. Purpose of research is a study of the various internal and external techniques of risk management that can be use for multinationals. Many companies use forward contracts and options, short term borrowing, discounting to mitigate a risk of foreign exchange transactions. Internal hedging techniques less used by companies as part of their hedging strategy. Management can set acceptable level of risk, which monitored daily. Management can monitors the risk of exchange rate changes. Management can make judgments to decide a fixed or variable rate is more effective for a particular period. However, the monitoring of risk not gives any safeguards against losses if the market situation will go beyond of the predicted limits. According the statistic data we see that a derivatives trading, for whatever reasons, are not durable in practice in both countries: India and Ukraine. The prospect of further research – searching of causes of this phenomenon.Hedging techniques can classified into internal and external depending on their use - within or outside the enterprise group. Many companies use forward contract and options, short term borrowing, discounting to mitigate a risk of foreign exchange transactions. Internal hedging techniques less used by companies as part of their hedging strategy. The aims of shared risk management program are to minimize the potential negative impact on the financial performance for those risks that are amenable or risk management is not a core activity of TNCs. Management can set acceptable level of risk, which monitored daily. Management can monitor the risk of exchange rate changes. Management can make judgments to decide a fixed or variable rate is more effective for a particular period. Borrowings at variable interest rates expose the Group to interest rate risk. Borrowings issued at fixed interest rates expose the Group changes in the fair value of the interest rate. However, the monitoring of risk not gives any safeguards against losses if the market situation will go beyond of the predicted limits. According the statistic data we see that a derivatives trading, for whatever reasons, are not durable in practice in both countries: India and Ukraine.

    The purpose of the research is to improve the definition and classification of derivative financial instruments in order to improve of operations with them. There were clarified the definition of financial derivatives. There were found differences of financial derivatives with derivative securities, financial instruments and derivatives. There were identified errors in the classification of derivatives. There were shown how we can use of financial derivatives to avoid financial risks. As the derivative financial instrument is to be understood fixed-term contract or a secondary security, according to which the holder has the right or takesthe obligation after a certain period of time on a pre-agreed conditions to carry out certain operations on contract with the underlying financial instrument. Derivative financial instruments are secondary financial instruments and include exchange and OTC contracts and derivative securities. The concept of "derivatives" is really wider then a derivative financial instrument. A commodity derivative should be named price derivative, because with its help of the risks of changes of commodity prices are distributed. At the base of financial derivatives can be a financial assets and liability or equity securities.Π‘Ρ‚Π°Ρ‚ΡŒΡ посвящСна ΠΈΠ΄Π΅Π½Ρ‚ΠΈΡ„ΠΈΠΊΠ°Ρ†ΠΈΠΈ ΠΈ ΡΠΎΠ²Π΅Ρ€ΡˆΠ΅Π½ΡΡ‚Π²ΠΎΠ²Π°Π½ΠΈΡŽ классификации ΠΏΡ€ΠΎΠΈΠ·Π²ΠΎΠ΄Π½Ρ‹Ρ… финансовых инструмСнтов с Ρ†Π΅Π»ΡŒΡŽ обоснования порядка ΠΈΡ… практичСского использования.
