Das Hypnoseverbrechen. Eine Betrachtung zur Frage der Widerstandsf�higkeit im Sinne des � 179 StGB
1985
Nach der Erorterung verschiedener Hypnosetheorien wird unter Berucksichtigung der physiologischen, psychologischen und behavioristisch-soziologischen Theorie anhand von 5 Fallen die Frage der Willensunfahigkeit im Sinne des § 179 StGB diskutiert und die Widerstandsunfahigkeit verneint.
Nouvelles perspectives concernant la structure et la fonction du domaine carboxyl terminal de Hfq
2015
Accumulating evidence indicates that RNA metabolism components assemble into supramolecular cellular structures to mediate functional compartmentalization within the cytoplasmic membrane of the bacterial cell. This cellular compartmentalization could play important roles in the processes of RNA degradation and maturation. These components include Hfq, the RNA chaperone protein, which is involved in the post-transcriptional control of protein synthesis mainly by the virtue of its interactions with several small regulatory ncRNAs (sRNA). The Escherichia coli Hfq is structurally organized into two domains. An N-terminal domain that folds as strongly bent β-sheets within individual protomers to…
Optimal MAC PDU Size in IEEE 802.16
2008
In the IEEE 802.16 the number of errors and the MAC PDU size have an impact on the performance of the network. We present a way to estimate the optimal PDU size and we run a number of simulation scenarios to study these parameters and how they impact on the performance of application protocols. The simulation results reveal that the channel bit error rate has a major impact on the optimal PDU size in the IEEE 802.16 networks. Also, the ARQ block rearrangement influences the performance.
Performance Evaluation of the IEEE 802.16 ARQ Mechanism
2007
The IEEE 802.16 technology defines the ARQ mechanism that enables a connection to resend data at the MAC level if an error is detected. In this paper, we analyze the key features and parameters of the ARQ mechanism. In particular, we consider a choice for the ARQ feedback type, a scheduling of the ARQ feedbacks and retransmissions, the ARQ block rearrangement, ARQ transmission window and ARQ block size. We run a number of simulation scenarios to study these parameters and how they impact a performance of application protocols. The simulation results reveal that the ARQ mechanism plays an important role in transmitting data over wireless channels in the IEEE 802.16 networks.
Performance comparison of HARQ and ARQ mechanisms in IEEE 802.16 networks
2008
The IEEE 802.16 technology defines several link level mechanisms to retransmit erroneous data. In this paper we compare the performance of the ARQ and HARQ mechanisms in the IEEE 802.16 networks. Our simulations results show that in general HARQ provides a better performance. However, ARQ can compete successfully with it due to a smaller signaling overhead. Furthermore, since ARQ does not require a dedicated uplink signaling channel for the acknowledgments messages, it results in better resources utilization in the uplink direction.
Link Adaptation Thresholds for the IEEE 802.16 Base Station
2008
The IEEE 802.16 technology defines a number of modulation and coding schemes that the base station can use to achieve the best tradeoff between the spectrum efficiency and the resulting application level throughput. However, the 802.16 specification does not define any particular link level adaptation algorithm, neither does it specify the SNR thresholds to switch between modulation and coding schemes. In this paper we consider a link adaptation model and conduct a number of simulation runs to find transition thresholds for ARQ and HARQ retransmission mechanisms. All the simulations are done with the 802.16 extension for the NS-2 simulator.
A performance analysis of block ACK scheme for IEEE 802.11e networks
2010
The demand for the IEEE 802.11 wireless local-area networks (WLANs) has been drastically increasing along with many emerging applications and services over WLAN. However, the IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) is known to be limited in terms of its throughput performance due to the high MAC overhead, such as interframe spaces (IFS) or per-frame based acknowledgement (ACK) frame transmissions. The IEEE 802.11e MAC introduces the block ACK scheme for improving the system efficiency of the WLAN. Using the block ACK scheme can reduce the ACK transmission overhead by integrating multiple ACKs for a number of data frames into a bitmap that is contained in a block ACK frame, thus increasing t…
Increasing the VoIP Capacity through MAP Overhead Reduction in the IEEE 802.16 OFDMa Systems
2010
One of the main issues with supporting VoIP service over 802.16 networks is the signalling overhead caused by the downlink MAP messages due to frequent transmissions and small packets. To decrease the MAP overhead, the 802.16 standard proposes some mechanisms, such as the compressed MAP and sub-MAPs. In this paper, we show by means of extensive dynamic simulations that sub-MAPs can reduce dramatically the signalling overhead associated with VoIP traffic and significantly improve overall VoIP capacity. At the same time, since sub-MAPs are more sensitive to packet drops, they tend to increase the number of HARQ retransmissions in downlink and transmission delays in the uplink direction.
ARQ parameters for VoIP in IEEE 802.16 networks
2009
IEEE 802.16 standard defines two data retransmission mechanisms. HARQ provides fast retransmissions in cost of slightly increased overhead. On the contrary, ARQ has less overhead in cost of bit longer delays. It is therefore often used with BE connections. In addition to delay tolerant applications, BE can also be used for real-time services. Therefore, in this paper we analyze the ARQ mechanism and provide guidelines on how to set the ARQ parameters to achieve a good balance between the VoIP delay and packet loss.
Experimental Assessment of the Backoff Behavior of Commercial IEEE 802.11b Network Cards
2007
It has been observed that different IEEE 802.11 commercial cards produced by different vendors experience different performance, either when accessing alone the channel, as well as when competing against each other. These differences persist also when thorough measurement methodologies (such as RF shielding, laptop rotation, etc) are applied, and alignment of the environmental factors (same laptop models, traffic generators, etc) is carried out. This paper provides an extensive experimental characterization of the backoff operation of six commercial NIC cards. It suggests a relevant methodological approach, namely a repeatable, well defined, set of experiments, for such a characterization. …
