Multiple-degrees-of-freedom free-space communication combining polarization and high-order spatial modes promises high-capacity communication channel. While high-order spatial modes have been widely exploited for dense coding and high-dimensional quantum information processing, the properties of polarization preservation of high-order spatial beams propagating in turbulent atmosphere have not b...

Recommending a Point of Interest (PoI) or sequence PoIs to visit based on user’s preferences and geo-locations has been one the most popular applications Location-Based Services (LBS). Variants have also considered which take other factors into consideration, such as broader (implicit explicit) semantic constraints well limitations length trip. In this work, we present an efficient algorithmic ...

The shallow water channel is an environment that is of particular interest to many research fields. An underwater acoustic channel is characterized as a multipath channel. Time-varying multipath propagation is one of the major factors that limit the acoustic communication performance in shallow water. This study conducts two underwater acoustic experiments in Tanjung Balau, Johor, Malaysia. A t...

A set of vertices $S$ in a connected graph $G$ is a different-distance set if, for any vertex $w$ outside $S$, no two vertices in $S$ have the same distance to $w$.The lower and upper different-distance number of a graph are the order of a smallest, respectively largest, maximal different-distance set.We prove that a different-distance set induces either a special type of path or an independent...

We present and verify ROAM, an on-demand routing algorithm that maintains multiple loop-free paths to destinations. Each router maintains entries only for those destinations for which data flows through the router, which reduces storage space requirements and the amount of bandwidth needed to maintain correct routing tables. In ROAM, routes are established and maintained on demand using diffusi...
