Specifically, the logarithmic utility function is utilized to address the potential fairness issue that may arise from the maximum sum-rate based objective function and the optical power constraints are set considering the non-negativity of the transmit signal, the requirement of the human eyes safety and all users' quality of service(Qo S). Then, the SSA is utilized to solve this optimization problem. Moreover, to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed strategy, it is compared with the fixed power allocation(FPA) and the gain ratio power allocation(GRPA) schemes. Results show that regardless of the number of users considered, the sum-rate achieved by SSA consistently outperforms that of FPA and GRPA schemes. Specifically, compared to FPA and GRPA schemes, the sum-rate obtained by SSA is increased by 40.45% and 53.44% when the number of users is 7, respectively. The proposed SSA also has better performance in terms of user fairness. This work will benefit the design and development of the NOMA-visible light communication(VLC) systems.展开更多

Specifically, compared to FPA and GRPA schemes, the sum-rate obtained by SSA is increased by 40.45% and 53.44% when the number of users is 7, respectively. The proposed SSA also has better performance in terms of user fairness. This work will benefit the design and development of the NOMA-visible light communication(VLC) systems.
文摘This research presents the square root sum of squares response of displacements and tunnel moments under the Kobe and Loma Prieta seismic excitations with a peak ground acceleration of 0.05 g for various dry relative densities of local sand in Bangladesh.For this reason,a one-dimensional gravitational shake table test was performed after calibration to determine the seismic performance of the concrete tunnel-sand-pile interaction model.A vertical 40 kg load was applied on each pile cap along with the seismic excitations.The experimental results obtained were compared with the previous numerical study conducted by using field data so as to better interpret the variations of results.In the case of vertical sand displacement,the ratio between the previous field data obtained through numerical study and the present study is found to be 0.96.Moreover,the experimental results were compared with the 3D full-scale numerical analysis results of Plaxis considering the Mohr-Coulomb constitutive model of sand.Variations of experimental and numerical results show a satisfactory level of alignment with the previously published work.According to the shake table test results,the lateral displacement of the tunnel is greater than the vertical displacement because of the transverse directional seismic excitation on the tunnel body.The minimum difference between lateral and vertical displacements of the tunnel is found to be 31%for a relative density of 27%under the Loma Prieta earthquake.However,this research may be advanced in the future by considering various peak ground accelerations,tunnel-pile clearance,and geometric properties.

文摘With increasing the number of wind power generators,the consumption time of electromagnetic simulation of the wind farm explodes.To reduce the simulation time while meeting the accuracy requirement,a genetic clustering-based equivalent model is proposed for the wind farm with numerous doubly fed induction generators.In the proposed model,active power together with the reactive power and the wind speed are selected to form the set of clustering indicators.A normalization technique is utilized to cope with the multiple orders of magnitude in these factors.An exponential fitness value is formulated as a function of the sorting number of the primary fitness value,and the fitness-based selection probability is constructed to overcome the property of premature and slow convergence of the genetic clustering algorithm.The sum of squares due to error is used to determine the optimal clustering number.In addition,a decoupled parameter equivalence method is adopted to obtain the equivalent parameters of the collection network.Simulation results and comparisons with various methods under different voltage scenarios show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed model.
文摘This paper attempts to form a bridge between a sum of the divisors function and the gamma function, proposing a novel approach that could have significant implications for classical problems in number theory, specifically the Robin inequality and the Riemann hypothesis. The exploration of using invariant properties of these functions to derive insights into twin primes and sequential primes is a potentially innovative concept that deserves careful consideration by the mathematical community.
