Throughput and energy efficiency comparison of one-hop, two-hop, virtual relay and cooperative retransmission schemes
2010
Two main types of approaches exist for implementing cooperative communications at the MAC layer: virtual-hop relay and cooperative retransmission. While the virtual-hop relay schemes employ relay nodes to forward packets when higher end-to-end throughput can be achieved compared with the direct transmission, the cooperative retransmission schemes use relays to retransmit data only after the direct transmission fails. However, the performance of the these different approaches has not been compared in the literature, especially when energy efficiency is considered. In order to find out the best transmission scheme, this paper evaluates and compares the performance of the one-hop direct transm…
Performance Analysis of M-DPSK Modulation over Fast-Hoyt Fading Channels under Non-Isotropic Scattering Conditions
2021
In this paper, we analyze the symbol error probability (SEP) performance of M-ary differential phase shift keying (M-DPSK) modulation schemes over frequency-flat fast-varying Hoyt multipath fading channels. Assuming general non-isotropic scattering conditions, we first derive a finite-range integral expression for the probability density function (PDF) of the phase difference between two non-isotropic Hoyt vectors perturbed by additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). Based upon the theory of M-DPSK modulation and the obtained PDF formula, the SEP of M-DPSK and its corresponding asymptotic behavior in non-isotropic fast-Hoyt fading channels are derived. Specifically, a double semi-finite range …
An ergodic wideband MIMO channel simulator based on the geometrical T-junction scattering model for vehicle-to-vehicle communications
2010
In this paper, a wideband multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) simulation model for vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) channels in T-junction propagation environments is proposed. This simulation model takes the exact relationship between the angle-of-arrival (AOA) and the angle-of-departure (AOD) into account. In order to determine the parameters of the simulation model, the Riemann sum method (RSM) is applied. Furthermore, the statistical and ergodic properties of the simulation model are studied. Closed-form solutions are derived for the space-time-frequency cross-correlation function (STF-CCF), the two-dimensional (2D) spatial cross-correlation function (CCF), the temporal autocorrelation functi…
Fading mitigation coding techniques for space to ground free space optical communications
2014
In this manuscript, a Geostationary satellite-toground Free Space Optics (FSO) downlink channel model has been implemented, which is able to predict temporal irradiance fluctuations caused by scintillation at a wide range of turbulence conditions and for different values of the zenith angle. In order to mitigate fading events that occur in FSO communications, we have also tested the performance of three different families of Rateless Codes (Luby Transform, Raptor and RaptorQ) into our model and found that RaptorQ is the best candidate to mitigate errors in FSO links.

Performance of LoRa technology: link-level and cell-level performance
2020
Abstract LoRa is a chirp spread spectrum technology that is becoming very popular for low-power wide-area networks, with high-density devices. In this chapter, we study the capacity of LoRa in rejecting different interfering signals. First, we analyze LoRa modulation numerically demonstrating that channel captures appear easily and that collisions between packets modulated with different spreading factors (SFs) are not uncommon. We validate such findings in experiments based on commercial devices and software-defined radios. Second, we model the network capacity obtainable in a typical LoRa cell: we show that high SFs can be seriously influenced by inter-SF collisions and that fading has a …
Dissolvenze. Il corpo immaginario della fotografia
2020
Composto da fotografie appartenenti a tre progetti diversi – Lost in the K-Hole, Doppelgänger e Maelström – Human Surfaces è un diario visivo interpretativo che mette in luce, in modo originale, un’iconografia di varie e potenziali diversità individuali (l’alter ego, l’attore, il visionario) protagoniste di scene immaginarie ma non per questo meno obiettive. Di Donato si muove in un territorio non solo di osservazione ma di costruzione dell’immagine, a sancire che la fotografia, come tutte le forme visuali autoriali, è un’emanazione che contiene il suo artefice. Tessendo le fila delle sue visioni l’autore crea intersezioni, riconoscimenti, trasformazioni, vere e proprie descrizioni dense di…
