    The work with feature of self-power supply by solar cell or by the battery or together at the same time. Therefore, the power dissipation is the big problem in wireless sensor network (WSN) especially when it is works for long time. The efficient method for reducing the power consumption within working is needed. The process of reducing waste power is one of the top priorities of scientists and designers of wireless sensor networks. The aim of this paper is to find the dominant method to reduce the power consumption in the wireless sensor network in order to stay works for long time and maintain the links with other nodes without loss of connection and transfer the information correctly. In this paper, a modified method was invented to minimize power utilization per data bit in a connection. This new method depends on the optimization process for reducing the power consumption as low as possible. All the tests of simulation process were done in additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel. Numerical results demonstrated that the new method reduce the power when different values of noise are present with different types of modulation. Also the distance that the WSN will reach the information to it will be increase with presence of various noise amounts with different types of modulation. As a result, the power was decreased and the signal was reach more distance

    The objectives of this article were to design a low-cost three-phase AC voltage measurement circuit and new Android smartphone application to monitor the measuring voltage from a safe distance. The smart distance power electronic measurement (SDPEM) system was designed based on an Arduino UNO R3 board used as a microcontroller to read and calculate the RMS values from a three-phase AC voltage measurement circuit (line-to-line or phase voltage of grid). Following this, the microcontroller sends the measuring data by Bluetooth to an Android smartphone application. The Bluetooth shield V2.0 was used as a wireless communication instrument between the SDPEM and the smartphone or tablet application. The smartphone monitoring application was a new application designed by the open-source developed program (MIT App Inventor 2) to monitor the three-phase AC voltage results from a safe distance. The safe distance depends on the type of Bluetooth device used. The main advantages of the SDPEM system are low cost and safety

    Abstract—in recent years, wireless communication has experienced a rapid growth and it promises to become a globally important infrastructure. One common design approach in fourth generation 4G systems is Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA). It is a single carrier communication technique on the air interface. It has become broadly accepted mainly because of its high resistance to frequency selective fading channels. The third Generation Partnership Project-Long Term Evolution (3GPP-LTE) uses this technique in uplink direction because of its lower peak to average power ratio PAPR as compared to Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiple Access (OFDMA) that is used for downlink direction. In this paper the LTE in general and SCFDMA will be discuss in details and its performance will be study under two types of subcarrier mapping which are localized and distributed mode also within different channel cases. The results show that the localized subcarrier mapping give lower bit error rate BER than the distributed mode and give different activity under miscellaneous channel cases. Keywords—LTE; SCFDMA; 4G; PAPR; BER; channel model I

    It is a well-known fact that the forthcoming names are distinctively different: interference range, career sense, and transmission. The given paper reveals the underlying study of disengagement of a request to send (RTS)/ clear to send (CTS) dialog. It was basically adopted under the influence of both; the presence of distributed coordination function of IEEE 802.11 and a sub-layer protocol which is called media access control (MAC) protocol. The demonstration was seen when applying a type of traffic flows such as Constant Bit Rate (CBR), Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), and besides User Datagram Protocol (UDP). When these are applied the output performance in term of throughput shows a very linear topology configuration of the network. To sum up, a new RTS /CTS mechanism was proposed based on the results obtained from the above suggestions. The detailing for the new mechanism showed that a terminal node will be responsible for deciding if it is authorized to use an RTS/CTS protocol dialog to send one of its packets or not. Needless to say, this process will be dynamic in nature
