Abstract Acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene (ABS) is the main material used in fused deposition modeling (FDM), which has good toughness and strength, but the single ABS material has poor heat resistance, which tends to cause warping and deformation during the printing process. Polycarbonate (PC) exhibits good performance in heat resistance, allowing it to maintain stable performance at higher temperatures. In this work, PC was used as a blending modifier to prepare five kinds of ABS/PC composite filaments, and the mechanical and thermal properties of the ABS/PC (Acrylonitrile–butadiene–styrene/Polycarbonate) composite filaments were studied and analyzed. Results showed that the glass transition… More >

Abstract This study presents a numerical analysis of the steady-state solution for transient magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) dissipative and radiative fluid flow, incorporating an induced magnetic field (IMF) and considering a relatively high concentration of foreign mass (accounting for Soret and Dufour effects) over a vertically oriented semi-infinite plate. The governing equations were normalized using boundary layer (BL) approximations. The resulting nonlinear system of partial differential equations (PDEs) was discretized and solved using an efficient explicit finite difference method (FDM). Numerical simulations were conducted using MATLAB R2015a, and the developed numerical code was verified through comparison with another… More >

Abstract This study intends to evaluate the influence of temperature stratification on an unsteady fluid flow past an accelerated vertical plate in the existence of viscous dissipation. It is assumed that the medium under study is a grey, non-scattered fluid that both fascinates and transmits radiation. The leading equations are discretized using the finite difference method (FDM). Using MATLAB software, the impacts of flow factors on flow fields are revealed with particular examples in graphs and a table. In this regard, FDM results show that the velocity and temperature gradients increase with an increase of Eckert More >

Abstract To address the problems of network congestion and spectrum resources shortage in multi-user large-scale scenarios, this paper proposes a twice random access OFDMA-NOMA-RA protocol combining the advantages of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). The idea of this protocol is that OFMDA is used to divide the entire frequency field into multiple orthogonal resource units (RUs), and NOMA is used on each RU to enable more users to access the channel and improve spectrum efficiency. Based on the protocol designed in this paper, in the case of imperfect successive interference… More >

Abstract Natural fibre as a reinforcing agent has been widely used in many industrial applications. Nevertheless, several factors need to be considered, such as the size and weight percentage of the fibre used in binding. Using fused deposition modelling (FDM), this factor was investigated by varying the size of natural fibre as the responding variable with a fixed weight percentage of kenaf fibre. The process of modifying the natural fibre in terms of size might increase the dispersion of kenaf fibre in the polymer matrix and increase the adhesion bonding between the fibre and matrix of… More >

Abstract As the scale of power networks has expanded, the demand for multi-service transmission has gradually increased. The emergence of WiFi6 has improved the transmission efficiency and resource utilization of wireless networks. However, it still cannot cope with situations such as wireless access point (AP) failure. To solve this problem, this paper combines orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) technology and dynamic channel optimization technology to design a fault-tolerant WiFi6 dynamic resource optimization method for achieving high quality wireless services in a wirelessly covered network even when an AP fails. First, under the premise of AP… More >

Abstract The computational complexity of resource allocation processes, in cognitive radio networks (CRNs), is a major issue to be managed. Furthermore, the complicated solution of the optimal algorithm for handling resource allocation in CRNs makes it unsuitable to adopt in real-world applications where both cognitive users, CRs, and primary users, PUs, exist in the identical geographical area. Hence, this work offers a primarily price-based power algorithm to reduce computational complexity in uplink scenarios while limiting interference to PUs to allowable threshold. Hence, this paper, compared to other frameworks proposed in the literature, proposes a two-step approach… More >

Abstract There are numerous goals in next-generation cellular networks (5G), which is expected to be available soon. They want to increase data rates, reduce end-to-end latencies, and improve end-user service quality. Modern networks need to change because there has been a significant rise in the number of base stations required to meet these needs and put the operators’ low-cost constraints to the test. Because it can withstand interference from other wireless networks, and Adaptive Complex Multicarrier Modulation (ACMM) system is being looked at as a possible choice for the 5th Generation (5G) of wireless networks.

Abstract An effective communication application necessitates the cancellation of Impulsive Noise (IN) from Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM), which is widely used for wireless applications due to its higher data rate and greater spectral efficiency. The OFDM system is typically corrupted by Impulsive Noise, which is an unwanted short-duration pulse with random amplitude and duration. Impulsive noise is created by humans and has non-Gaussian characteristics, causing problems in communication systems such as high capacity loss and poor error rate performance. Several techniques have been introduced in the literature to solve this type of problem, but they… More >

Abstract Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX) trusts Multiple Input Multiple Output-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) combination for the deployment of physical layer functions and for connecting the medium access control to the wireless media. Even though Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) facilitates reliable digital broadband transmission in the fading wireless channels, the presence of synchronization errors in the form of Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) and Time Offset (TO) adversely affect the performance of OFDM based physical layers. The objective of this work is to improve the accuracy of the frequency and the time offset estimation More >
