With this protocol, the resource reservation table of each node will record the bandwidth requirements of data flows, which access itself, its neighbor nodes and hidden nodes, and every node calculates the remaining available bandwidth by deducting the bandwidth reserved in the resource reservation table from the total available bandwidth of the node. Moreover, the BCMR searches in a distributed manner for the paths with the shortest delay conditioned by the bandwidth constraint. Simulation results demonstrate the good performance of BCMR in terms of packet delivery reliability and the delay. BCMR can meet the requirements of real time communication and can be used in the multicast applications with low mobility in wireless ad hoc networks.展开更多

With an adaptive bandwidth,the proposed PLL can scale its loop dynamics proportional to the output frequency and maintain optimal performance over its entire output range. In order to improve the jitter performance of the PLL,a matching tech- nique is employed in the charge pump,and a voltage-to-voltage converter is used to achieve a low gain VCO. The experimental chip was fabricated in a 0. 35μm CMOS process. The measured results show that the PLL has perfect jitter performance within its operating range from 200MHz to 1.1GHz.展开更多

The reflection characteristics of high-reflectivity mirror in zeroth and -lst transmitted diffraction orders are quantitatively evaluated. It is found that the reflection bandwidth of high-reflectivity mirror in -lst transmitted diffraction order, which determines the final diffraction bandwidth of multilayer dielectric grating, is evidently compressed. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the reducing of grating period is an effective approach to the elimination of guided mode resonance over a required broad band range both spectrally and angularly. In addition, the expressions for calculating the maximum period ensuring no guided mode resonance in the required bandwidth are derived. Finally, two high-efficiency pulse-compression gratings with broad-band are presented.展开更多

文摘A prediction based bandwidth allocation scheme for transporting MPEG VBR traffic is proposed by using the FARIMA (p,d,q) (fractional autoregressive integrated moving average) model.FARIMA (p,d,q) model is capable of capturing both the long range and short range dependence in the video traffic.A method is suggested to simplify the FARIMA model fitting procedure and hence to reduce the time of traffic modeling and prediction.The simulation experiments show that this scheme can significantly reduce the requirement of buffer size and the frame loss rate.
文摘This paper presents a novel adaptive-bandwidth charge pump PLL with low jitter and a wide tuning range. With an adaptive bandwidth,the proposed PLL can scale its loop dynamics proportional to the output frequency and maintain optimal performance over its entire output range. In order to improve the jitter performance of the PLL,a matching tech- nique is employed in the charge pump,and a voltage-to-voltage converter is used to achieve a low gain VCO. The experimental chip was fabricated in a 0. 35μm CMOS process. The measured results show that the PLL has perfect jitter performance within its operating range from 200MHz to 1.1GHz.

文摘In order to design a multilayer dielectric grating with wide-bandwidth diffraction spectrum, the restriction factors of both the reflection bandwidth of multilayer dielectric high-reflectivity mirror and the guided-mode resonance phe- nomenon are studied in detail. The reflection characteristics of high-reflectivity mirror in zeroth and -lst transmitted diffraction orders are quantitatively evaluated. It is found that the reflection bandwidth of high-reflectivity mirror in -lst transmitted diffraction order, which determines the final diffraction bandwidth of multilayer dielectric grating, is evidently compressed. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that the reducing of grating period is an effective approach to the elimination of guided mode resonance over a required broad band range both spectrally and angularly. In addition, the expressions for calculating the maximum period ensuring no guided mode resonance in the required bandwidth are derived. Finally, two high-efficiency pulse-compression gratings with broad-band are presented.
文摘In order to solve the problems of small sample over-fitting and local minima when neural networks learn online, a novel method of predicting network bandwidth based on support vector machines(SVM) is proposed. The prediction and learning online will be completed by the proposed moving window learning algorithm(MWLA). The simulation research is done to validate the proposed method, which is compared with the method based on neural networks.

文摘Next wireless network aims to integrate heterogeneous wireless access networks by sharing wireless resource.The spectral bandwidth mapping concept is proposed to uniformly describe the resource in heterogeneous wireless networks.The resources of codes and power levels in WCDMA system as well as statistical time slots in WLAN are mapped into equivalent bandwidth which can be allocated in different networks and layers.The equivalent bandwidth is jointly distributed in call admission and vertical handoff control process in an integrated WLAN/WCDMA system to optimize the network utility and guarantee the heterogeneous QoS required by calls.Numerical results show that,when the incoming traffic is moderate,the proposed scheme could receive 5%-10% increase of system revenue compared to the MDP based algorithms.

文摘Dynamic bandwidth allocation(DBA)is an open and hot topic in the Ethernet passive optical network(EPON),which is regarded as one of the best choices for next-generation access networks.However,most proposed DBA schemes ignore the quality of service(QoS)guarantee on maximum delay and delay jitter for the real-time traffic and the downstream bandwidth utilization under light upstream load in EPON.In this paper,a new DBA scheme,QoS guaranteed adaptive downstream bandwidth utilization(QoS-ADBU),is proposed.This scheme can provide better QoS assurance by determining the maximum transmission cycle time according to the maximum acceptable packet delay and delay jitter for real-time traffic.Besides,the downstream utilization can also be improved by adapting the polling frequency to downstream traffic load.

文摘A third-order correction was recently suggested to improve the accuracy of the half-power bandwidth method in estimating the damping of single DOF systems.This paper analyzes the accuracy of the half-power bandwidth method with the third-order correction in damping estimation for multi-DOF linear systems.Damping ratios in a two-DOF linear system are estimated using its displacement and acceleration frequency response curves,respectively.A wide range of important parameters that characterize the shape of these response curves are taken into account.Results show that the third-order correction may greatly improve the accuracy of the half-power bandwidth method in estimating damping in a two-DOF system.In spite of this,the half-power bandwidth method may significantly overestimate the damping ratios of two-DOF systems in some cases.
