Joint radio resource management in heterogeneous wireless networks by Suleiman, Kamil Hussien

“…Designing a good joint radio resource management (JRRM) scheme for a heterogeneous wireless network is part of the integration challenges. The design goal of a JRRM is optimising the trade-off between resource utilisation, quality of service provisioning, fairness, and simplicity of design, amongst others. …”

A new connectivity strategy for wireless mesh networks using dynamic spectrum access by Maliwatu, Richard

“…Drawing on the experimental results and insight gained, the study builds criteria towards a mechanism for auto selection of the optimal link option. Overall, this study is anticipated to serve as a springboard to stimulate the adoption and integration of DSA in WMNs, and further development in multi-link utilisation strategies to increase capacity. …”

Predictive Maintenance: Leveraging Hybrid LSTM-CNN Architectures for Enhanced Performance by El Sadeek, Kamal Mohamed

“…In conclusion, the thesis establishes that hybrid CNN-LSTM models, especially in parallel configuration, offer a robust and scalable solution for predictive maintenance. The integration of optimization techniques further refines performance on simpler datasets, while architecture remains the critical factor for success in complex environments. …”

Reliable Outdoor Ai-Based Autonomous Uav Localization and Trajectory Tracking Using Cellular Networks by Afifi, Ghada

“…We provide a comparative evaluation of the set of algorithms that we proposed and demonstrate the recommended use case scenario for each of these trajectory planning solutions. Our simulation results show that our proposed machine learning-based approaches provide near optimal solutions to the formulated UAV localization and trajectory planning problems, with comparable accuracy to the optimal bound while meeting the real-time calculation requirement.…”

Energy efficiency control of direct expansion air conditioning systems

“…In addition, in this chapter, the volumes of outside air allowed to enter the DX A/C system are regarded as varying with the changing circumstance over a day and are optimized by the AHC. Moreover, a supply fan to steer the pressure swing absorption with a built-in proportional-integral (PI) controller is proposed to lower the indoor CO2 concentration such that it would reduce the complexity of computation for the AHC and the cost of hardware. …”
