Q-Learning-Based Inter-Networking Mobile Number Portability Congestion Control Mechanism

Inter-networking Mobile Number Portability(MNP) is an important way to promote the development of new telecom services.For the congestion that always occurs on the MNP query nodes,this paper proposes a Q-learning-based inter-networking mobile number portability congestion control mechanism,taking the node queue delay and query service stability as the control targets,based on the optimal decision which is made over mobile user number portability query through self-adaptive connection admission control.The simulation and analysis show that,compared with tail-drop,random early detection and other mechanisms,this mechanism realizes a smoother and more regular queue size when the load is relatively light;and maintains a relatively low and stable queue size with relatively small loss when the load is relatively heavy,thus improving QoS and increasing network throughput at lower cost.

Experimental Study of Sand Bed Configurations in Front of a Vertical Wall Under Wave Action

When a 2-D progressive wave train normally or obliquely approaches a vertical wall and then is normally or obliquely reflected from it, the combination of the approaching and reflected waves may result in a standing wave or a short-crested wave in front of the wall. This paper presents the experimental observations of sand bed configurations under the action of these water waves in front of the wall. The geometry of sand ripples under these water waves in front of the vertical wall is presented as a function of flow parameters, such as the water particle semi-excursion and the mobility number.

Carrier Transport Properties in the Doped Micro - crystalline Silicon Films

Doped micro-crystalline silicon films are deposited at temperatures as low as 400 ℃ by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition method using a silane and hydrogen gas mixture. Electrical properties such as the carrier concentration and the Hall mobility are investigated for various measuring temperatures. It is found that the grains of micro-crystalline silicon are preferentially oriented along the (220) direction , and that the Hall mobility is larger than 8 cm 2·V -1 ·s -1 , the carrier concentration is about 1×10 17 cm -1 ～1×10 19 cm -3 at room temperature.

Electronic Transport of Uranium Mononitride

We investigated the electronic heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and resistivity of UN using Quantum Espresso and EPW code. GGA, PBEsol functional was used. The calculated electronic heat coefficient was found to be significantly reduced (0.0176 J⋅mol-1⋅K-2 versus 0.0006 J⋅mol-1⋅K-2) when the non-local hybrid functional (B3LYP) was used. Furthermore, we calculated electrical resistivity using a very transparent Ziman’s formula for metals with the Eliashberg transport coupling function as implemented in EPW code for non-spin-polarized calculations. The number of mobile electrons in UN, as a function of temperature, was derived from the ratio of the calculated resistivity and available experimental data. The electronic thermal conductivity was evaluated from the calculated electronic resistivity via Wiedemann-Franz law with the number of mobility electrons (nav) incorporated (averaged over the temperature range 300 K - 1000 K). Both the electronic thermal conductivity and resistivity, as calculated using newly evaluated nav, compare well with experimental data at ~700 K, but to reproduce the observed trend as a function of temperature, the number of mobile electrons must decrease with the temperature as evaluated.

Wireless sensing system for environmental humidity and temperature monitoring

Aiming at the actual demand for monitoring environmental information,a wireless sensing system for temperature and relative humidity(RH)monitoring based on radio frequency(RF)technology and mobile network was designed.This paper introduces the architecture of the system.The system uses AVR micro controller unit(MCU),KYL-1020U RF module and SHT71 to complete real-time temperature and humidity monitoring,and uses SIM900A module to realize remote alarming and monitoring with short message system(SMS)through global system for mobile communication(GSM).Experimental results show that the designed system has good stability of measurement and real-time performance,and it can be used in some small temperature and humidity monitoring occasions.

Origin of high particle number concentrations reaching the St. Louis, Midwest Supersite

Ultrafine particles are associated with adverse health effects. Total Particle Number Concentration（TNC） of fine particles were measured during 2002 at the St. Louis — Midwest supersite. The time series showed overall low level with frequent large peaks. The time series was analyzed alongside criteria pollutant measurements and meteorological observations. Multiple regression analysis was used to identify further contributing factors and to determine the association of different pollutants with TNC levels. This showed the strong contribution of sulfur dioxide（SO2） and nitrogen oxides（NO x） to high TNC levels. The analysis also suggested that increased dispersion resulting from faster winds and higher mixing heights led to higher TNC levels. Overall, the results show that there were intense particle nucleation events in a SO2 rich plume reaching the site which contributed around 29% of TNC. A further 40% was associated with primary emissions from mobile sources. By separating the remaining TNC by time of day and clear sky conditions,we suggest that most likely 8% of TNC are due to regional nucleation events and 23% are associated with the general urban background.

Characterization of particle number size distribution and new particle formation in Southern China

Knowledge of particle number size distribution（PND） and new particle formation（NPF）events in Southern China is essential for mitigation strategies related to submicron particles and their effects on regional air quality,haze,and human health.In this study,seven field measurement campaigns were conducted from December 2013 to May 2015 using a scanning mobility particle sizer（SMPS） at four sites in Southern China,including three urban sites and one background site.Particles were measured in the size range of15-515 nm,and the median particle number concentrations（PNCs） were found to vary in the range of 0.3× 10~4-2.2 × 10~4 cn^（-3） at the urban sites and were approximately 0.2 × 10~4 cm^（-3） at the background site.The peak diameters at the different sites varied largely from 22 to 102 nm.The PNCs in the Aitken mode（25-100 nm） at the urban sites were up to 10 times higher than they were at the background site,indicating large primary emissions from traffic at the urban sites.The diurnal variations of PNCs were significantly influenced by both rush hour traffic at the urban sites and NPF events.The frequencies of NPF events at the different sites were0%-30%,with the highest frequency occurring at an urban site during autumn.With higher SO_2 concentrations and higher ambient temperatures being necessary,NPF at the urban site was found to be more influenced by atmospheric oxidizing capability,while NPF at the background site was limited by the condensation sink.This study provides a unique dataset of particle number and size information in various environments in Southern China,which can help understand the sources,formation,and the climate forcing of aerosols in this quickly developing region,as well as help constrain and validate NPF modeling.

Low-frequency noise characteristics in the MOSFETs processed in 65 nm technology

Low-frequency noise behavior in the MOSFETs processed in 65 run technology is investigated in this paper.Low-frequency noise for NMOS transistors agrees with McWhorter＇s theory（carrier number fluctuation）,low-frequency noise in the sub-threshold regime agrees with McWhorter＇s theory for PMOS transistors while it agree with Hooge＇s theory（carrier mobility fluctuation） in the channel strong inversion regime.According to carrier number fluctuation model,the extracted trap densities near the interface between channel and gate oxide for NMOS and PMOS transistor are 3.94×10^（17） and 3.56×10^（18） cm^（-3）/eV respectively.According to carrier mobility fluctuation model,the extracted average Hooge＇s parameters are 2.42×10^（-5） and 4×10^（-4）.By consideration of BSIM compact model,it is shown that two noise parameters（NOIA and NOIB） can model the intrinsic channel noise.The extracted NOIA and NOIB are constants for PMOS and their values are equal to 3.94×10^（17） cm^（-3）/eV and 9.31×10^（-4） V^（-1）.But for NMOS,NOIA is also a constant while NOIB is inversely proportional to the effective gate voltage.The extracted NOIA and NOIB for NMOS are equal to 3.56×10^（18） cm^（-3）/eV and 1.53×10^（-2） V^（-1）.Good agreement between simulation and experimental results is achieved.
