Fractal geometry is a methodology through which size reduction is achieved. A Self-similar fractal antenna using multicantor technique is proposed and experimentally studied. Space-filling cantors and self-similarity properties of fractal geometry have been adopted in the proposed antenna to miniaturize the size of antenna. The antenna is designed in such a way to operate at MICS band (Medical Implant communication Service) for wireless telemedicine application. The prototype antenna exhibits wideband characteristics and provides a good agreement of return loss (S11). Experimental return loss has been compared with that which is obtained using method of moments. The objective of using self-similar concept in antenna makes it flexible in terms of controlling the resonance and bandwidth. In this paper, the Self-similar property of fractal geometry is examined by maintaining return loss (S11) more than –30 dB approximately in all the iterations (n) and the prototype antenna has return loss greater than –10 dB and exhibits wideband characteristics.展开更多

Many efforts have been made to estimate the radio coverage of sensor nodes. The existing approaches (often RSSI measurement-based), however, suffer from heavy measurement cost and are not well suitable for the large-scale densely deployed WSNs. NRC-Map, a novel algorithm is put forward for sensor nodes radio coverage mapping. The algorithm is based on the RSSI values collected by the neighbor nodes. According to the spatial relationship, neighbor nodes are mapping to several overlapped sectors. By use of the least squares fitting method, a log-distance path loss model is established for each sector. Then, the max radius of each sector is computed according to the path loss model and the given signal attenuation threshold. Finally, all the sectors are overlapped to estimate the node radio coverage. Experimental results show that the method is simple and effectively improve the prediction accuracy of the sensor node radio coverage.展开更多

The failure of actuator nodes, in particular, may result in substantial consequences such as network partitioning, incorrect and incomplete decision execution for WSANs. This paper proposes an efficient localized scheme, called LANTR, to repair the damaged topology of inter-actuator network while single actuator node paralyzes. For the failure of an ordinary actuator node, LANTR can rapidly repair the topology through relocating only one-hop neighbors of the failure node, meanwhile, keep the original topology structure as much as possible. Given the magnitude of cut vertex actuators playing on the connectivity, LANTR designs a novel method for each cut vertex to select out a specific guardian node with the minimum degree or minimum cumulative degree from its neighbors, which can reduce the repair influence on the original topology and effectively reduce the coverage loss rate. The performance of the proposed scheme is evaluated and compared with several existing representative topology repair schemes, and the results indicate that LANTR can more effectively and efficiently repair the topology of inter-actuator networks.展开更多

文摘为了探索高频段室内无线体域网通信的可行性,对11 GHz室内无线体域网的传播特性进行了测量与研究。基于大量的测量数据,给出了11 GHz频段室内无线体域网的路径损耗、阴影效应与均方根时延扩展的统计特性。针对体对体通信时人体相对角度变化的场景,提出了一种具有相对角度影响的路径损耗模型,该模型利用了与身体角度相关的路径损耗指数、浮动截距以及身体角度因子修正相对角度变化引入的路径损耗。为了验证模型的适用性,对比分析了在小型空教室和大型会议室两种不同场景下相对角度变化对信道传播特性的影响。研究结果表明:在收发端距离固定的情况下,路径损耗指数、浮动截距和由相对角度引起的路径损耗(Path Loss caused by Relative Angle,PLRA)均与相对角度具有三角函数关系;在收发端相对角度固定时,PLRA与收发端距离无关,仅与相对角度有关。上述研究结果可以为11 GHz频段在未来室内无线体域网的使用提供理论基础与实践依据。
