A Neural Network Approach to the Prediction of the Propagation Path-loss for Mobile Communications Systems in Urban Environments
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents an alternative procedure for the prediction of propagation path loss in urban environments. It is based on Neural Network (NN) algorithms and uses the detailed environment profile instead of the mean values of its structural parameters. The general performance of the NN shows its effectiveness to yield results with satisfactory accuracy in short time. The received results are compared to the respective ones yielded by the Ray-Tracing model and exhibit satisfactory accuracy either for uniform or for non-uniform distribution of the manmade structured environment.

Prediction of methanol loss by hydrocarbon gas phase in hydrate inhibition unit by back propagation neural networks
Gas hydrate often occurs in natural gas pipelines and process equipment at high pressure and low temperature. Methanol as a hydrate inhibitor injects to the potential hydrate systems and then recovers from the gas phase and re-injects to the system. Since methanol loss imposes an extra cost on the gas processing plants, designing a process for its reduction is necessary. In this study, an accur...
