Power beacon-assisted energy harvesting in a half-duplex communication network under co-channel interference over a Rayleigh fading environment: Energy efficiency and outage probability analysis

In this time, energy efficiency (EE), measured in bits per Watt, has been considered as an important emerging metric in energy-constrained wireless communication networks because of their energy shortage. In this paper, we investigate power beacon assisted (PB) energy harvesting (EH) in half-duplex (HD) communication network under co-channel Interferer over Rayleigh fading environment. In this work, we investigate the model system with the time switching (TS) protocol. Firstly, the exact and asymptotic form expressions of the outage probability (OP) are analyzed and derived. Then the system EE is investigated and the influence of the primary system parameters on the system performance. Finally, we verify the correctness of the analytical expressions using Monte Carlo simulation. Finally, we can state that the simulation and analytical results are the same.Web of Science1213art. no. 257

Optimal solutions for fixed head short-term hydrothermal system scheduling problem

In this paper, optimal short-term hydrothermal operation (STHTO) problem is determined by a proposed high-performance particle swarm optimization (HPPSO). Control variables of the problem are regarded as an optimal solution including reservoir volumes of hydropower plants (HdPs) and power generation of thermal power plants (ThPs) with respect to scheduled time periods. This problem focuses on reduction of electric power generation cost (EPGC) of ThPs and exact satisfactory of all constraints of HdPs, ThPs and power system. The proposed method is compared to earlier methods and other implemented methods such as particle swarm optimization (PSO), constriction factor (CF) and inertia weight factor (IWF)-based PSO (FCIW-PSO), two time-varying acceleration coefficient (TTVACs)-based PSO (TVAC-PSO), salp swarm algorithm (SSA), and Harris hawk algorithm (HHA). By comparing EPGC from 100 trial runs, speed of search and simulation time, the suggested HPPSO method sees it is more robust than other ones. Thus, HPPSO is recommended for applying to the considered and other problems in power systems

Determining optimal location and size of capacitors in radial distribution networks using moth swarm algorithm

In this study, the problem of optimal capacitor location and size determination (OCLSD) in radial distribution networks for reducing losses is unraveled by moth swarm algorithm (MSA). MSA is one of the most powerful meta-heuristic algorithm that is taken from the inspiration of the food source finding behavior of moths. Four study cases of installing different numbers of capacitors in the 15-bus radial distribution test system including two, three, four and five capacitors areemployed to run the applied MSA for an investigation of behavior and assessment of performances. Power loss and the improvement of voltage profile obtained by MSA are compared with those fromother methods. As a result, it can be concluded that MSA can give a good truthful and effective solution method for OCLSD problem

Hybrid decode-amplify and forward protocol of FD EH relaying network: outage probability analysis

Nowadays, many research papers focus on the WPCN problem and how to improve its efficiency. In this research, we propose and investigate Hybrid Decode-Amplify and Forward Protocol (HDAF) of the Full-Duplex (FD) Energy Harvesting (EH) Relaying Network with the Time Switching (TS) protocol. In the beginning stage, we present the HDAF mode, which can be work like a Decode-and-Amplify (DF) or Amplify-and-Forward (AF) modes based on the best of its performance in the FD EH relaying network. Furthermore, the closed-form expression of the outage probability (OT) is analyzed and derived in connection with the primary system parameters. Besides, the comparison of the system performance in the AF, DF, and HDAF is proposed and investigated. Finally, all the results are convinced by the Monte Carlo simulation for all cases

Outage probability analysis of EH relay-assisted non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems over Block Rayleigh Fading Channel

Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) has been identified as a promising multiple access technique for the fifth generation (5G) mobile networks due to its superior spectral efficiency. In this paper, we propose and investigate a Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (NOMA) of energy harvesting (EH) relay assisted system over Block Rayleigh Fading Channel. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed system, the integral expression of the outage probability is analyzed and derived. Numerical results confirm that our derived analytical results match well with the Monte Carlo simulations in connection with all possible system parameter

ĐẶC TRƯNG KHAI THÁC NGUỒN LỢI ĐỘNG VẬT ĐÁY CÓ GIÁ TRỊ KINH TẾ CHỦ YẾU Ở THỦY VỰC NHA PHU, KHÁNH HÒA

The exploitation characteristics of zoobenthos resources with economic value at the Nha Phu waters were determined by five field trips carried out from 2011 - 2016. The results shows that Nha Phu waters have had great exploitation pressure, with high density of boats (11.9 motorboats/100 ha, 7.7 boats/100 ha and 16.2 people/100 ha), average days of fishery exploitation being high (185 days/fishery/year) and concentrating mainly in the dry season (70% of total average days of fishery/year), specially the destructive artisanal fisheries, (56% of total time of fishery). The average yeild of fishery was dominant in the dry season (73% of total commercial yield and 93% of total number of benthic animal seeds), in which the destructive artisanal fisheries possess 73% of the entire yield of benthic animal. Yields of zoobenthos have decreased seriously, specially for crustaceans (17%). It may be due to greater pressure of fishery exploitation, especially the destructive artisanal fisheries. The results of this study will contribute the scientific basis and data to planning for effective exploitation and management of fisheries resources.Đặc trưng khai thác nguồn lợi động vật đáy có giá trị kinh tế chủ yếu ở thủy vực Nha Phu, Việt Nam được xác định thông qua 5 chuyến điều tra khảo sát từ năm 2011 - 2016. Kết quả nghiên cứu cho thấy, thủy vực Nha Phu có áp lực khai thác lớn, với mật độ phương tiện (11,9 ghe/100 ha, 7,7 sỏng/100 ha và 16,2 người/100 ha), số nghề (13 nghề) và thời gian khai thác trung bình nghề khá cao (185 ngày/nghề/năm) và tập trung chủ yếu vào mùa khô (chiếm gần 70% tổng thời gian hoạt động trung bình nghề/năm), đặc biệt nghề khai thác hủy diệt tận thu như xiết điện, lưới lồng, cào máy, giã cào (chiếm trên 56% tổng thời gian năm). Sản lượng của các nghề khai thác chiếm ưu thế vào mùa khô (chiếm trên 73% tổng sản lượng khai thác thương phẩm (423,9 tấn/năm) và trên 93% tổng con giống (161.000 con giống/năm) động vật đáy cả năm), trong đó các nghề hủy diệt, tận thu chiếm chiếm trên 73% tổng sản lượng động vật đáy. Thành phần và sản lượng nguồn lợi động vật đáy có chiều hướng suy giảm nghiêm trọng, đặc biệt nguồn lợi giáp xác (giảm 17%). Nguyên nhân có thể do thời gian hoạt động trung bình/năm và doanh thu của các loại nghề khá cao, đặc biệt nghề khai thác mang tính hủy diệt, tận thu. Kết quả nghiên cứu này cung cấp cơ sở khoa học và dữ liệu cho quy hoạch khai thác và quản lý nguồn lợi thủy sản hợp lý
