IET Networks, EarlyView., 2023 We utilise a metaheuristic optimisation method, inspired by nature, called the Lévy‐flight firefly algorithm (LFA), to tackle the power regulation and user grouping in the NOMA systems. Abstract The non‐orthogonal multiple access strategies have shown promise to boost fifth generation and sixth generation wireless networks' spectral efficiency and ...

IET Power Electronics, EarlyView., 2023 This article presents a Fifteen‐level inverter topology that has a lesser number of switches (12) and can accommodate isolated DC sources. The total harmonic elimination (THD) of the proposed topology using genetic algorithm is within the IEEE 519 standards. Further, the fifteen‐level inverter is implemented in Hardware and firing pulses were generated

An investigation of the effects of chaotic maps on the performance of metaheuristics
Engineering Reports, 2021 This article presents an empirical investigation of the effects of chaotic maps on the performance of metaheuristics. Particle Swarm Optimization and Simulated Annealing are modified to use chaotic maps instead of the traditional pseudorandom number ...

Distribution planning in a weather-dependent scenario with stochastic travel times: a simheuristics approach [PDF]
, 2018 In real-life logistics, distribution plans might be affected by weather conditions (rain, snow, and fog), since they might have a significant effect on traveling times and, therefore, on total distribution costs.
