The Exchange Value Embedded In A Transport System
This paper shows that a well designed transport system has an embedded
exchange value by serving as a market for potential exchange between consumers.
Under suitable conditions, one can improve the welfare of consumers in the
system simply by allowing some exchange of goods between consumers during
transportation without incurring additional transportation costs. We propose an
explicit valuation formula to measure this exchange value for a given
compatible transport system. This value is always nonnegative and bounded from
above. Criteria based on transport structures, preferences and prices are
provided to determine the existence of a positive exchange value. Finally, we
study a new optimal transport problem with an objective taking into account of
both transportation cost and exchange value.Comment: 20 pages, 6 figure
On Max-SINR Receiver for Hexagonal Multicarrier Transmission Over Doubly Dispersive Channel
In this paper, a novel receiver for Hexagonal Multicarrier Transmission (HMT)
system based on the maximizing Signal-to-Interference-plus-Noise Ratio
(Max-SINR) criterion is proposed. Theoretical analysis shows that the prototype
pulse of the proposed Max-SINR receiver should adapt to the root mean square
(RMS) delay spread of the doubly dispersive (DD) channel with exponential power
delay profile and U-shape Doppler spectrum. Simulation results show that the
proposed Max-SINR receiver outperforms traditional projection scheme and
obtains an approximation to the theoretical upper bound SINR performance within
the full range of channel spread factor. Meanwhile, the SINR performance of the
proposed prototype pulse is robust to the estimation error between the
estimated value and the real value of time delay spread.Comment: 6 pages. The paper has been published in Proc. IEEE GLOBECOM 2012.
