Genetic Algorithm Aided Timeslot Scheduling for UTRA TDD CDMA Networks

open access: yes, 2005
It is demonstrated that genetic algorithms may be utilised for finding a suboptimum but highly beneficial uplink (UL) or downlink (DL) timeslot (TS) allocation for improving the achievable performance of the third generation UTRA system’s time division ...

Effects of Surface Characteristics on the Existence of Isolated Permafrost in Northeastern Mongolia

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isolated patches of permafrost, where ground thermal changes are affected by ecosystem factors such as vegetation cover rather than climate, may be vulnerable to environmental disturbances in semiarid regions. However, the impacts of ecosystem factors remain underevaluated in Mongolia.
