Indoor Wireless Network Coverage Area Optimization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cyber and IT Service Management, 2022
The presence of interference has a significant impact on wireless network connections indoors. Because of the effects of multipath propagation, such as reflection, refraction, and scattering of radio waves by the structure of the building, the sent signal can usually be received in free space or via more than one pathway, and the consequence might be a

Distributed Coverage Area Reporting for Wireless Sensor Networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In order to efficiently deal with subscriptions or other location dependent information, it is key that the wireless sensor network informs the gateways what geographical area is serviced by which gateway. The gateways are then able to e.g.

Active SLAM for Mobile Robots With Area Coverage and Obstacle Avoidance

open access: yesIEEE/ASME transactions on mechatronics, 2020
In this article, we present an active simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) framework for a mobile robot to obtain a collision-free trajectory with good performance in SLAM uncertainty reduction and in an area coverage task.

Personalizing the Pediatric Hematology/Oncology Fellowship: Adapting Training for the Next Generation

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The pediatric hematology‐oncology fellowship training curriculum has not substantially changed since its inception. The first year of training is clinically focused, and the second and third years are devoted to scholarship. However, this current structure leaves many fellows less competitive in the current job market, resulting in ...

Near-Optimal Area-Coverage Path Planning of Energy-Constrained Aerial Robots With Application in Autonomous Environmental Monitoring

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Automation Science and Engineering, 2020
This article describes a Voronoi-based path generation (VPG) algorithm for an energy-constrained mobile robot, such as an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The algorithm solves a variation of the coverage path-planning problem where complete coverage of an ...
