Power constitutes an essential controllable resource for the improvement of the radio link performance in WCDMA-based cellular networks. In addition, complementary to traditional services, location based services (LBS) have emerged as a growing area for mobile service providers bringing in the foreground the potential for a locationaware resource management. To this effect, this paper addresses...

Mobile location sensing applications (MLSAs) represent an emerging genre of applications that exploit Global Positioning System (GPS) technology and facilitate location-based services. The design of MLSAs must incorporate a tradeoff between information accuracy and energy efficiency because GPS technology is energy expensive and unaffordable for most MLSA platforms, which are battery-powered an...

Now-a-days, Determination of optimal location and size of Distributed Generation units is one of the major problems of distribution network. Optimum locations and sizes of DG sources have profoundly impacted on the system losses of a distribution system. In this paper, authors‟ presents a method to identify the optimal location and size of DGs based on the voltage stability index (VSI) and part...

The capacity analysis of CDMA forward link is required to allocate high data-rate users. To solve this problem, we analyze the capacity of the CDMA forward link based on optimum power control. In a multi-cell environment, the intracell interference and intercell interference are derived. To show the capacity impact of high data-rate users, we introduce a location dependent factor, which is the ...

Low-cost Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) location sensing algorithm is practical and crucial for urban infrastructure location. Current RFID location algorithms are based on fixed multiple RFID reader or reference points (reader or tag) with known position, which is cost and difficult to deployment in urban environment. The objective of this study is to develop a low-cost location sensing...

This study uses socioeconomic and demographic data to demonstrate the value of a novel multidimensional approach healthcare accessibility. The optimum location for facilities in relation demand areas was determined using location-allocation models local multiscale geographically weighted regression (MGWR) explore spatially non-stationary relationships. result shows that potential accessibility ...
