Sensor-to-observer signal transmission is facilitated over networks that has communication constraints.These transmissions are carried out over an unreliable communication channel. In order to enhance the utilization rate of measurement data, a buffer-aided strategy is novelly employed to store historical measurements when communication networks are inaccessible. Using the neural network technique, a novel observer-based controller is introduced to address effects of signal transmission behaviors and unknown nonlinear dynamics.Through the application of stochastic analysis and Lyapunov stability, a joint framework is constructed for analyzing resultant system performance under the introduced controller. Subsequently, existence conditions for the desired output-feedback controller are delineated. The required parameters for the observerbased controller are then determined by resolving some specific matrix inequalities. Finally, a simulation example is showcased to confirm method efficacy.展开更多

The solution technique is offered to get the system sate probabilities. The method advances the traditional system aggregation techniques. Numerical results specify the extended aggregation method and also show that the unreliable limited buffers have a strong impact on the efficiency of the production lines.展开更多

We consider an unreliable sensor grid network with mn nodes placed in a certain planar area A, and we assume that each node has independent failure probability p and has the same transmission range R. This paper presents a new method for calculating the connectivity probability of the network, which uses thorough mathematical methods to derive the relationship among the network connectivity probability, the probability that a node is ＂failed＂ （not active）, the numbers of node, and the node＇s transmission range in unreliable sensor networks. Our approach is more useful and efficient for given problem and conditions. Such as the numerical calculating results indicate that, for a 100×100 size sensot network, if node failure probability is bounded 0.5%, even if the transmission range is small （such as R = 10）, we can still maintain very high connectivity probability （reach 95.8%）. On the other hand, the simulation results show that building high connectivity probability is entirely possible on unreliable sensor grid networks.展开更多

Random process of system change-over is a Markovian process with continuous time and discrete states. Relations binding basic parameters and output characteristics of the system indicated are obtained as probabilities of system staying in the given moment in one of the possible states. The proposed model is the most generalized compared to some models known in literature which could be considered as special cases of the considered model.展开更多

The story is first-person narrative of a narrator who murdered an old man with a clouded eye. This paper aims at identifying the speaker"I"as an unreliable narrator through analyzing the motivation, process and confession of the crime. It is found out that the narrator symbolizes man of evil, while, the old man's vulture eye symbolizes virtue. It's a story about the conflict between evil and virtue.展开更多
