Optimizing Household Waste Recycling Centre Network Reorganization in Hampshire

Networks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Local councils across the UK are facing sustained financial pressures, and Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) are being increasingly considered for closure to reduce expenditure. In 2024, Hampshire County Council, which operates the largest HWRC network in the UK, proposed closing either five or twelve existing sites.

String‐Stable Platooning Control of Connected Automated Vehicles Under Non‐Uniform Stochastic Communication Delays

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper is concerned with the platooning control problem of connected automated vehicles (CAVs) under non‐uniform stochastic vehicle‐to‐vehicle (V2V) communication delays. Most existing relevant studies assume uniform or deterministic or slowly varying delays, or design platoon controllers based on worst‐case delay bounds, resulting in ...

Path‐Based Deep Reinforcement Learning for On‐Board Routing in Satellite Constellation Networks

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient usage of available network resources is a crucial factor for broadband services in interconnected satellite constellations. To meet required quality of service standards under heavy network loads, it is essential to optimize traffic distribution among the intersatellite links. To address this challenge, we propose an adaptive traffic

Integrated LEO Constellation and In‐Cabin Distribution System for Continuous Aircraft 5G Connectivity

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The integration of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellite constellations with commercial aircraft communication systems presents critical challenges in maintaining continuous connectivity during dynamic flight conditions. Current geostationary satellite systems suffer from high round‐trip latency (>$$ > $$ 500 ms) and inadequate coverage at high ...

Dynamic Cell Division for Interference Management in Satellite Direct‐to‐Cell Systems

International Journal of Satellite Communications and Networking, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Direct‐to‐cell (D2C) connectivity enables future non‐terrestrial networks to provide service directly to standard terrestrial user equipment (UE) when terrestrial networks (TN) are unavailable. In this work, the satellite system is considered as a secondary network that supplements existing TN coverage while minimizing interference to the ...

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.
