Implementasi Cross Layer Enchenched Packet Scheduling Paket Multimedia Untuk Jaringan Ofdm Uplink Di Bawah Redaman Hujan

In the previous network, optimization is often done on a separate layer and the result is less than optimal. Therefore, developed a new scheme to combine multiple layers of network protocol called Cross-Layer, for example in the physical layer and link layer. In this final project will be evaluated applying Cross-Layer Optimization methods with emphasis on the evaluation of scheduling schemes of OFDM uplink transmission of multimedia data packets using Enhanced Cross-Layer Packet Scheduling (CEPS) under rain attenuation. The results showed that the use of scheduling CEPS give effect to video and voice traffic is real-time priority in scheduling and packet loss and delay as small as possible while the data traffic (FTP) with a delay that can be tolerated can log buffer considering fairness and physical layer conditions

Conservative versus liberal oxygenation targets in critically ill children: the randomised multiple-centre pilot Oxy-PICU trial

BACKGROUND: Oxygen saturation monitoring for children receiving respiratory support is standard worldwide. No randomised clinical trials have compared peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO_{2}) targets for critically ill children. The harm of interventions to raise SpO_{2} to > 94% may exceed their benefits. METHODS: We undertook an open, parallel-group randomised trial of children > 38 weeks completed gestation and  94%) or a conservative oxygenation group (SpO_{2} = 88–92% inclusive). Outcomes were measures of feasibility: recruitment rate, protocol adherence and acceptability, between-group separation of SpO_{2} and safety. The Oxy-PICU trial was registered before recruitment: ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT03040570. RESULTS: A total of 159 children met the inclusion criteria, of whom 119 (75%) were randomised between April and July 2017, representing a rate of 10 patients per month per site. The mean time to randomisation from first contact with an intensive care team was 1.9 (SD 2.2) h. Consent to continue in the study was obtained in 107 cases (90%); the children’s parents/legal representatives were supportive of the consent process. The median (interquartile range, IQR) of time-weighted individual mean SpO_{2} was 94.9% (92.6–97.1) in the conservative oxygenation group and 97.5% (96.2–98.4) in the liberal group [difference 2.7%, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.3–4.0%, p < 0.001]. Median (IQR) time-weighted individual mean FiO_{2} was 0.28 (0.24–0.37) in the conservative group and 0.37 (0.30–0.42) in the liberal group (difference 0.08, 95% CI 0.03–0.13, p < 0.001). There were no significant between-group differences in length of stay, duration of organ support or mortality. Two prespecified serious adverse events (cardiac arrests) occurred, both in the liberal oxygenation group. CONCLUSION: A definitive clinical trial of peripheral oxygen saturation targets is feasible in critically ill children
