Directive Antenna Clutter Loss in Slant Paths

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper investigates the development of a clutter loss model specifically for slant paths involving directive antennas. Conventionally, clutter loss is characterized by using isotropic antennas to facilitate standard link budget calculations via single antenna gain values.

Integrating Image Segmentation and Deep Learning to Improve Radio Frequency Propagation Models

open access: yesInternational Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper proposes a multi‐sensor approach to improve radio frequency (RF) propagation models, which play a key role in the rapidly expanding field of connected vehicle technology. Focusing on the 1‐ to 20‐GHz frequency range, which is critical for both satellite‐to‐vehicle and base station‐to‐vehicle communications, our study introduces a ...

Platoon Dispersion Analysis Based on Diffusion Theory

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2017
Urbanization and gro wing demand for travel, causes the traffic system to work ineffectively in most urban areas leadin g to traffic congestion. Many approaches have been adopted to address this problem, one among them being the signal co-ordination ...

Something New, Something Old: Parametric Models for the Size of Distribution of Income

open access: yes, 1997
Two new probability density functions (generalized beta and quadratic elasticity) are considered as models for the size distribution of income. The generalized beta distribution nests the generalized beta of the first and second kind, generalized gamma ...

A Bayesian Spatial Disaggregation Approach for Fine‐Scale Mapping of Water Access Disparities

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Access to clean water remains a critical challenge for achieving Sustainable Development Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation. While national statistics agencies report water access at coarse municipal scales, this data obscure critical hotspots where vulnerable populations lack essential services.

Approximating the Sum of Correlated Lognormal or Lognormal-Rice Random Variables

open access: yes, 2006
A simple and novel method is presented to approximate by the lognormal distribution the probability density function of the sum of correlated lognormal random variables.

Inequality decomposition using the Gibbs output of a Mixture of lognormal distributions [PDF]

open access: yes
In this paper we model the income distribution using a Bayesian approach and a mixture of lognormal densities. The size of the mixture is determined by Chib (1995)'s method.

Rotation capacity of continuous reinforced concrete slab strips revisited

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Rotation capacity is a key characteristic of statically indeterminate reinforced concrete structures, as it (i) enables bending moment redistributions, whether intentionally introduced through optimized reinforcement layouts or arising from unforeseen self‐equilibrated stress states, and (ii) promotes large rotations at failure load, thereby ...

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

open access: yesStructural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.
