Impact of Transceiver Impairments on the Capacity of Dual-Hop Relay Massive MIMO Systems
Despite the deleterious effect of hardware impairments on communication
systems, most prior works have not investigated their impact on widely used
relay systems. Most importantly, the application of inexpensive transceivers,
being prone to hardware impairments, is the most cost-efficient way for the
implementation of massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems.
Consequently, the direction of this paper is towards the investigation of the
impact of hardware impairments on MIMO relay networks with large number of
antennas. Specifically, we obtain the general expression for the ergodic
capacity of dual-hop (DH) amplify-and-forward (AF) relay systems. Next, given
the advantages of the free probability (FP) theory with comparison to other
known techniques in the area of large random matrix theory, we pursue a large
limit analysis in terms of number of antennas and users by shedding light to
the behavior of relay systems inflicted by hardware impairments.Comment: 6 pages, 4 figures, accepted in IEEE Global Communications Conference

Sensing-Throughput Tradeoff for Interweave Cognitive Radio System: A Deployment-Centric Viewpoint
Secondary access to the licensed spectrum is viable only if interference is
avoided at the primary system. In this regard, different paradigms have been
conceptualized in the existing literature. Of these, Interweave Systems (ISs)
that employ spectrum sensing have been widely investigated. Baseline models
investigated in the literature characterize the performance of IS in terms of a
sensing-throughput tradeoff, however, this characterization assumes the
knowledge of the involved channels at the secondary transmitter, which is
unavailable in practice. Motivated by this fact, we establish a novel approach
that incorporates channel estimation in the system model, and consequently
investigate the impact of imperfect channel estimation on the performance of
the IS. More particularly, the variation induced in the detection probability
affects the detector's performance at the secondary transmitter, which may
result in severe interference at the primary users. In this view, we propose to
employ average and outage constraints on the detection probability, in order to
capture the performance of the IS. Our analysis reveals that with an
appropriate choice of the estimation time determined by the proposed model, the
degradation in performance of the IS can be effectively controlled, and
subsequently the achievable secondary throughput can be significantly enhanced.Comment: 13 pages, 10 figures, Accepted to be published in IEEE Transactions

In this direction, motivated by the increasing interest in MIMO relay systems due to their improved spectral efficiency and coverage, this paper investigates the impact of residual hardware impairments on the ergodic capacity of dual-hop (DH) amplify-and-forward (AF) MIMO relay systems. Specifically, a thorough characterization of the ergodic channel capacity of DH AF relay systems in the presence of hardware impairments is presented herein for both the finite and large antenna regimes by employing results from finite-dimensional and large random matrix theory, respectively. Regarding the former setting, we derive the exact ergodic capacity as well as closed-form expressions for tight upper and lower bounds. Furthermore, we provide an insightful study for the low signal-to-noise ratio regimes. Next, the application of the free probability theory allows us to study the effects of the hardware impairments in future 5G deployments including a large number of antennas. While these results are obtained for the large system limit, simulations show that the asymptotic results are quite precise even for conventional system dimensions.Peer reviewedFinal Accepted Versio
IMPACT LOADING ANALYSIS OF PARTICULATE POLYMER COMPOSITES WITH AN EFFICIENT HYBRID MACHINE LEARNING APPROACH
The fracture behaviour of particle composites made of polymers under impact loading is predicted in this research using a hybrid machine learning approach dubbed Hybrid Artificial Neural Networks and Random Forest (HANN-RF), with a focus on mode-I fracture. The goal of the study is to create a model for prediction that accurately links input variables to histories of crack initiation, fracture toughness, and the intensity of the stress factor (SIF). A full dataset is created, with inputs for the composites' compositional properties and impact loading scenarios. The HANN-RF model combines a Random Forest (RF) method and an ANN (Artificial Neural Network) in order to improve robustness and accuracy in forecasting. Metrics like MAE, MAPE for short, and accuracy are used in model evaluation. The outcomes show that the HANN-RF technique successfully predicts and forecasts mode-I fracture behaviour, offering insightful information for evaluating the effect on resilience and longevity of particle polymer composites in a variety of applications
Dark Matter and Experiments for its Identification
After Fritz Zwicky, through various theoretical models, several dark matter events have been proposed. but none of them is yet discovered. Recent experiment shows that only around 5% of the total matters present in the whole universe are visual. Rest matter is still unknown to us by any present experimental tools. this leads that detection of dark matter is one of the very challenging & curios goal for experimental physicists. For the search of suitable dark matter candidates and for rear physics events, high Purity germanium detectors, Spherical gaseous chamber detector and few more hybrid-detectors are suitable for these purposes. We proposed that any suitable detector hosted under deep sea water will be more effective than the under ground or mountain caverns
IoV-based Deployment and Scheduling of Charging Infrastructure in Intelligent Transportation Systems
Internet of vehicles (IoV) is an emerging paradigm
to exchange and analyze information collected from sensors
using wireless technologies between vehicles and people, vehicles
and infrastructure, and vehicles-to-vehicles. With the recent
increase in the number of electric vehicles (EVs), the seamless
integration of IoV in EVs and charging infrastructure can offer
environmentally sustainable and budget-friendly transportation.
In this paper, we propose an IoV-based framework that consists of
deployment and scheduling of a mobile charging infrastructure.
For the deployment, we formulate an optimization problem to
minimize the total cost of mobile charging infrastructure placement
while considering constraints on the number of EVs that
can be charged simultaneously. The formulated problem is mixedinteger
programming and solved by using the branch and bound
algorithm. We then propose an IoV-based scheduling scheme for
EVs charging to minimize travel distance and charging costs
while satisfying the constraints of charging time requirement of
EVs and resources of a charging station.We consider passive road
sensors and traffic sensors in the proposed IoV-based scheduling
scheme to enable EV users for finding a charging station that can
fulfill their requirements, as well as to enable service providers to
know about the demand in the area. Simulation results illustrate
the significant impact of the optimal deployment of charging
infrastructure and scheduling optimization on the efficiency of
EVs charging
A combinatorial approach of comprehensive QTL-based comparative genome mapping and transcript profiling identified a seed weight-regulating candidate gene in chickpea
High experimental validation/genotyping success rate (94–96%) and intra-specific polymorphic potential (82–96%) of 1536 SNP and 472 SSR markers showing in silico polymorphism between desi ICC 4958 and kabuli ICC 12968 chickpea was obtained in a 190 mapping population (ICC 4958 × ICC 12968) and 92 diverse desi and kabuli genotypes. A high-density 2001 marker-based intra-specific genetic linkage map comprising of eight LGs constructed is comparatively much saturated (mean map-density: 0.94 cM) in contrast to existing intra-specific genetic maps in chickpea. Fifteen robust QTLs (PVE: 8.8–25.8% with LOD: 7.0–13.8) associated with pod and seed number/plant (PN and SN) and 100 seed weight (SW) were identified and mapped on 10 major genomic regions of eight LGs. One of 126.8 kb major genomic region harbouring a strong SW-associated robust QTL (Caq'SW1.1: 169.1–171.3 cM) has been delineated by integrating high-resolution QTL mapping with comprehensive marker-based comparative genome mapping and differential expression profiling. This identified one potential regulatory SNP (G/A) in the cis-acting element of candidate ERF (ethylene responsive factor) TF (transcription factor) gene governing seed weight in chickpea. The functionally relevant molecular tags identified have potential to be utilized for marker-assisted genetic improvement of chickpea

Ultra-high density intra-specific genetic linkage maps accelerate identification of functionally relevant molecular tags governing important agronomic traits in chickpea
We discovered 26785 and 16573 high-quality SNPs differentiating two parental genotypes of a RIL mapping population using reference desi and kabuli genome-based GBS assay. Of these, 3625 and 2177 SNPs have been integrated into eight desi and kabuli chromosomes, respectively in order to construct ultra-high density (0.20–0.37 cM) intra-specific chickpea genetic linkage maps. One of these constructed high-resolution genetic map has potential to identify 33 major genomic regions harbouring 35 robust QTLs (PVE: 17.9–39.7%) associated with three agronomic traits, which were mapped within <1 cM mean marker intervals on desi chromosomes. The extended LD (linkage disequilibrium) decay (~15 cM) in chromosomes of genetic maps have encouraged us to use a rapid integrated approach (comparative QTL mapping, QTL-region specific haplotype/LD-based trait association analysis, expression profiling and gene haplotype-based association mapping) rather than a traditional QTL map-based cloning method to narrow-down one major seed weight (SW) robust QTL region. It delineated favourable natural allelic variants and superior haplotype-containing one seed-specific candidate embryo defective gene regulating SW in chickpea. The ultra-high-resolution genetic maps, QTLs/genes and alleles/haplotypes-related genomic information generated and integrated strategy for rapid QTL/gene identification developed have potential to expedite genomics-assisted breeding applications in crop plants, including chickpea for their genetic enhancement
A genome-wide SNP scan accelerates trait-regulatory genomic loci identification in chickpea
We identified 44844 high-quality SNPs by sequencing 92 diverse chickpea accessions belonging to a seed and pod trait-specific association panel using reference genome- and de novo-based GBS (genotyping-by-sequencing) assays. A GWAS (genome-wide association study) in an association panel of 211, including the 92 sequenced accessions, identified 22 major genomic loci showing significant association (explaining 23–47% phenotypic variation) with pod and seed number/plant and 100-seed weight. Eighteen trait-regulatory major genomic loci underlying 13 robust QTLs were validated and mapped on an intra-specific genetic linkage map by QTL mapping. A combinatorial approach of GWAS, QTL mapping and gene haplotype-specific LD mapping and transcript profiling uncovered one superior haplotype and favourable natural allelic variants in the upstream regulatory region of a CesA-type cellulose synthase (Ca_Kabuli_CesA3) gene regulating high pod and seed number/plant (explaining 47% phenotypic variation) in chickpea. The up-regulation of this superior gene haplotype correlated with increased transcript expression of Ca_Kabuli_CesA3 gene in the pollen and pod of high pod/seed number accession, resulting in higher cellulose accumulation for normal pollen and pollen tube growth. A rapid combinatorial genome-wide SNP genotyping-based approach has potential to dissect complex quantitative agronomic traits and delineate trait-regulatory genomic loci (candidate genes) for genetic enhancement in crop plants, including chickpea
