Network Function of a Circuit01:25

Network Function of a Circuit

335
Frequency response analysis in electrical circuits provides vital insights into a circuit's behavior as the frequency of the input signal changes. The transfer function, a mathematical tool, is instrumental in understanding this behavior. It defines the relationship between phasor output and input and comes in four types: voltage gain, current gain, transfer impedance, and transfer admittance. The critical components of the transfer function are the poles and zeros.

IP3/DAG Signaling Pathway01:11

IP3/DAG Signaling Pathway

12.2K
Membrane lipids such as phosphatidylinositol (PI) are precursors for several membrane-bound and soluble second messengers. Specific kinases phosphorylate PI and produce phosphorylated inositol phospholipids. One such inositol phospholipids are the  phosphatidylinositol-4,5 bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2], present in the inner half of the lipid bilayer. Upon ligand binding, GPCR stimulates Gq proteins to turn on phospholipase Cꞵ. Activated phospholipase Cꞵ cleaves PI(4,5)P2 and...

Maximum Power Transfer01:16

Maximum Power Transfer

306
Numerous practical applications within engineering disciplines, such as telecommunications, necessitate optimizing power delivery to a connected load. This pursuit, however, entails inherent internal losses, which can either equal or exceed the power supplied to the load. The Thevenin equivalent circuit is helpful in finding the maximum power a linear circuit can deliver to a load. It is assumed in this context that the load resistance can be adjusted.
By substituting the entire circuit with...

Pilot and Numeric Relaying01:21

Pilot and Numeric Relaying

111
Pilot relaying is a type of differential protection used in power systems. It compares electrical quantities at the terminals of equipment via a communication channel instead of direct relay interconnection. This method is essential for transmission lines where the terminals are far apart, typically up to 80 km for lines with 69 to 115 kV ratings. Four types of communication channels are used for pilot relaying:

Signal and System01:26

Signal and System

740
A signal x(t) is a set of data or a time function representing a variable of interest. Signals typically convey information about a phenomenon, such as atmospheric temperature, humidity, human voice, television images, a dog's bark, or birdsongs. More generally, a signal can be a function of more than one independent variable. For instance, images depend on horizontal and vertical positions and can be regarded as two-dimensional signals. However, this text will focus on one-dimensional...

Short-distance Transport of Resources02:12

Short-distance Transport of Resources

16.3K
Short-distance transport refers to transport that occurs over a distance of just 2-3 cells, crossing the plasma membrane in the process. Small uncharged molecules, such as oxygen, carbon dioxide, and water, can diffuse across the plasma membrane on their own. In contrast, ions and larger molecules require the assistance of transport proteins due to their charge or size. Transport across membranes also occurs within individual cells, playing a variety of essential roles for the plant as a whole.

Area of Science:

  • Wireless Communication
  • Internet of Things (IoT)
  • Network Protocols

Background:

  • Long Range (LoRa) is crucial for low-power, wide-area IoT networks, but single-hop architectures face path loss and transmission time limitations.
  • Existing multi-hop LoRa schemes focus on coverage but neglect packet delivery success ratio (PDSR) and packet reduction ratio (PRR) improvements via overhearing.
  • Duty cycle regulations in LoRaWAN present challenges for relay operations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose an Implicit Overhearing Node-based Multi-hop Communication (IOMC) scheme for IoT LoRa networks.
  • To enhance the Packet Delivery Success Ratio (PDSR) and Packet Reduction Ratio (PRR) in LoRa networks.
  • To leverage implicit relay nodes for overhearing to improve communication efficiency while adhering to duty cycle regulations.

Main Methods:

  • Developed an IOMC scheme utilizing implicit relay nodes as overhearing nodes (OHs) among end devices (EDs) with low spreading factors (SF).
  • Designed a theoretical framework for selecting and determining OH nodes, considering the LoRaWAN Media Access Control (MAC) protocol.
  • Conducted simulations to evaluate the performance of the IOMC scheme.

Main Results:

  • The IOMC scheme significantly increases the probability of successful transmission for distant EDs.
  • IOMC demonstrates superior performance in scenarios with high node density.
  • The proposed scheme exhibits greater resilience to poor Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) compared to existing multi-hop LoRa networks.

Conclusions:

  • The IOMC scheme effectively improves PDSR and PRR in IoT LoRa networks by exploiting overhearing.
  • Implicit relay nodes can be strategically used to enhance multi-hop communication efficiency under duty cycle constraints.
  • IOMC offers a robust solution for challenging IoT environments characterized by high density and weak signal strength.
