Ascertaining the importance of the recently proposed spatial modulation, we study its performance in Weibull multipath fading channels. Closed form integral expressions for calculating the symbol error rate of spatial modulation (SM) in independent, not necessarily identical Weibull fading channels are derived. Simulation and the analytical results, considering different transmission scenarios,...

It is known that evolution may lead to a new species while adaptation may lead to a new variety. In this manuscript, we present an analysis of the number of evolutions (defined by improvement of the score associated with an objective function of a genetic algorithm) in an experiment supervised by a genetic algorithm, experiment conducted on octan-1-ol/H20 partition coefficient of polychlorinate...

Assessment of reliability analysis of paper plant with fuzzy logic technique has carried out in this paper. Fuzzy Weibull distribution and lifetime of a component is also determined. The paper plant is a complex system under consideration which consists of various subsystems such as chipping, feeding, pulp preparation, washing, screening, bleaching and paper production etc. The mathematical mod...

In this paper, we present novel closed-form expressions for the probability density function (PDF) and cumulative distribution function (CDF) of ratio of random variable and product of two random variables for the cases where random variables are Rayleigh, Weibull, Nakagami-m and α-μ distributed. An application of obtained results in performance analysis of multi-hop wireless communication syst...

In recent years finite-mixture models have been employed to approximate and model empirical diameter at breast height (DBH) distributions. We used two-component mixtures of either the Weibull distribution or the gamma distribution for describing the DBH distributions of mixed-species, two-cohort forest stands, to analyse the relationships between the DBH components, age cohorts and dominant spe...

Probability distributions perform a very significant role in the field of applied sciences, particularly reliability engineering. Engineering data sets are either negatively or positively skewed and/or symmetrical. Therefore, flexible distribution is required that can handle such sets. In this paper, we propose new family lifetime to model aforementioned This proposed known as “New Modified Exp...

This study compared the cyclic fatigue resistance of OneShape (OS) instrument which used continuous rotation with WaveOne (WO) instrument which used reciprocating motion. OS size 25, 0.06 taper and WO primary size 25, 0.08 taper were used in simulated canals with 45°, 60°, and 90° angles of curvature until fracture. The number of cycles to fracture (NCF) was recorded to evaluate cyclic fatigue ...

Nonhomogeneous Poisson process (NHPP) also known as Weibull process with power law, has been widely used in modeling hardware reliability growth and detecting software failures. Although statistical inferences on theWeibull process have been studied extensively by various authors, relevant discussions on predictive analysis are scattered in the literature. It is well known that the predictive a...

Most of the existing reliability analysis is based on exponential distribution which is convenient to calculation, whereas most intelligent electronic devices exhibit Weibull distribution. What kind of influence will life distribution have on the reliability and availability of a smart substation? This paper compares the reliability and availability of systems with different life distributions ...
