The Nature of Risk Preferences: Evidence from Insurance Choices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The authors use data on insurance deductible choices to estimate a structural model of risky choice that incorporates standard risk aversion (diminishing marginal utility for wealth) and probability distortions.

Throughput and Packet Loss Probability Analysis of Long Range Wide Area Network

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
Long Range Wide Area Network (LoRaWAN) is the one of the promising low power wide area network (LPWAN) technologies at present and is expected to grow in the foreseeable future as a tool to provide connectivity among small things.

Finite Length Analysis of Irregular Repetition Slotted ALOHA in the Waterfall Region [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A finite length analysis is introduced for irregular repetition slotted ALOHA (IRSA) that enables to accurately estimate its performance in the moderate-to-high packet loss probability regime, i.e., in the so-called waterfall region.

HANDOFF IN 5G ULTRA DENSE NETWORKS USING FIXED SPHERE PRECODING

open access: yesICTACT Journal on Communication Technology, 2022
It is anticipated that the millimetrewave, often known as mm-wave, technology that will be used in 5G networks will greatly enhance network capacity. The mm-wave signals, on the other hand, are prone to obstructions than the ones at lower bands; this ...

Insurance decisions for low-probability losses [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Risk and Uncertainty, 2009
It is widely accepted that individuals tend to underinsure against low-probability, high-loss events relative to high-probability, low-loss events. This conventional wisdom is based largely on field studies, as there is very little experimental evidence.

Probabilistic analysis of long-term loss incorporating maximum entropy method and analytical higher-order moments

open access: yesJournal of Infrastructure Preservation and Resilience, 2022
Quantifying economic losses of civil infrastructures subjected to various hazards under a life-cycle context is of vital importance for risk assessment and management. In previous studies, the expected long-term loss has been widely applied as a standard

Effect of Stop-Loss Reinsurance on Primary Insurer Solvency

open access: yesRisks, 2022
Stop-loss reinsurance is a risk management tool that allows an insurance company to transfer part of their risk to a reinsurance company. Ruin probabilities allow us to measure the effect of stop-loss reinsurance on the solvency of the primary insurer ...
