is used. We introduce a low-power pseudo-random frequency-hopping MAC protocol which is specifically characterized as a duty cycled asynchronous sender-initiated LPL style protocol. We illustrate two flavors of the protocol; one that does not use any dedicated channel and another which allows dedicated

by acoustic feedback [2, 3] INTRODUCTION According to the improvement of automobile engine to provide high speed and high power, the amount of working gas increases. When a high flow rate of gas exists, a large flow induced noise radiates from the open end of the muffler. This flow induced noise sometimes

Abstract- We propose a disturbance observer(DOB) based feedback linearization control to improve position tracking performance in the presence of disturbance. The proposed method consists of a disturbance observer and a feedback linearization controller. The disturbance observer is designed

Optimal linear policies are constructed, global optimality and sub-optimality of such policies are investigated in a variety of settings. We also

Public reporting burden for the collection of information is estimated to average 1 hour per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.

Therefore, we desire to develop a robust adaptive beamformer to improve the performance against inaccuracies caused by limited sample size and the look direction mismatch by shaping the directional response of the array. The ability

is selected for implementation with Planet π4. Planet π4 is improved in several aspects for the purpose of analyzing various network implementations. First, its architecture is restructured and cleaned to allow for an easy replacement of the networking component. Second, its core is modified to work in a

the whole parameter space of the model. We confirm the capture threshold behavior observed in previous studies but also reveal new insights relevant to the design of optimal protocols: We identify capture zones depending not only on the signal power ratio but also on time and phase offsets. I.
