In this paper is presented a new efficient Channel Assignment technique. The philosophy of this technique is that provides priority to Emergency Calls in Wireless Cellular Security Networks. The new technique is based on a two-layer cellular architecture The lower layer of the proposed architecture is based on a microcellular solution, for absorbing the traffic loads of both the handoff and new calls of Emergency Calls (EC). The higher layer is based on a macro-cell umbrella solution, for absorbing the traffic load of the handoff and new calls of the Non Emergency Calls (NEC). The simulation results show that using the optimum number of channels in each layer, the QoS of EC and the Handoff Blocking Probability of NEC in a congested area where an extreme event was happened is optimized, having the minimum negative effect on the New Call Blocking Probability of the NEC.

This paper provides a new analytical robust stability checking method of fractional-order linear time invariant interval uncertain system. This paper continues the authors’ previous work (Chen et al., 2005a) where matrix perturbation theory was used. For the new robust stability checking, Lyapunov inequality is utilized for finding the maximum eigenvalue of a Hermitian matrix. Through numerical examples, the usefulness and the effectiveness of the newly proposed method are verified.

Two novel threshold techniques are proposed for image segmentation which is a very critical task in any image processing. The two methods are based in scanning each image row by row and to find the proper threshold value. A modification of this method is developed to find the threshold value by average. The two methods are implemented on a mammogram and accordingly, a comparison between the two methods is carried out

The increasing demand for wireless broadband service offering in long distances is the major drive behind the emergence of the WiMAX technology. WiMAX is targeted to providing high bit data rates to the end users in a wireless manner, any time, in any location, even in harsh environmental conditions and at an acceptable quality. This paper presents the experimental results of a WiMAX system that follows the specifications of IEEE 802.16-2004 standard. Throughput and Bit Error Rate (BER) measurements, as well as voice and video service experiments are carried out, leading to useful conclusions for the performance evaluation of the WiMAX system under test and the WiMAX technology in general.

Crosstalk is an important factor that needs to be considered and study its effects in copper wires, especially when voice communication takes place. Its presence has proven to be an impaired factor in the performance of communication services. This paper measures the isolation losses and the crosstalk losses as a function of the frequency and the length of the copper wires. It also presents throughput results from modems designed in the context of an EU financed project that can provide a symmetric 100 Mbps over two pairs for reach up to 500m (5 times the existing reach of 100-BASE-T systems).

This paper presents the nonresonant ultrasonic motor (SPIDER)-driven precision stage control based on an adaptive identification method with a variable forgetting factor (VFF). SPIDER-driven stage has a strong non-linearity due to the frictional drive mechanism. Focusing on the VFF, dynamical change of frictional property is detected. Therefore, fast and precise friction compensation can be performed based on the VFF. The validity of both the identification and compensation methods is verified through experiments

The last years, the voice and the Internet access services have become a commodity, having as a result the offering from network providers, both fixed and mobile, a bunch of services. These developments are posing new requirements to existing networks, which are circuit based, and an evolution path is needed towards next generation networks, which allows the provision of multimedia services with guarantee quality of service. Mobile operators are facing the greatest challenges, since they have to reform their networks in order to provide data and multimedia services and the definition of the IP multimedia Subsystem (IMS) framework is one step towards that direction. The purpose of this paper is to shed light on significant issues, in terms of network architecture and protocols of multimedia next generation networks,,allowing the definition of an evolution scenario of existing networks towards next generation multimedia networks.

Ferroelectric materials have been gaining much interest over the last decades due to the unique operational characteristics they demonstrate, when a dc electric field is applied. This paper investigates the scattering analysis of electromagnetic waves from materials with high permittivity that follows a linear spatial variation along one axis. The surface integral equation (SIE) and volume integral equation (VIE) methods are invoked to compute the currents and the radar cross section (RCS). The number of unknowns for the VIE is, as expected, larger than for the SIE method. The RCS and the induced current are associated in such a way that one can approximate the linear variation with relatively few elements (unknowns).
