Impact of Fading in On Demand Routing Protocol of MANET
Abstract: AbstractFading is a major impairment while transmitting a signal in wireless communication channel. It is caused by multipath propagation. That is signals from different paths can constructively or destructively interfere with each other. Thus, it becomes very necessary to reduce this effect, to transmit the signal effectively to the receiver. Many routing protocols are proposed based on which neglect the effect of fading and path loss. Main objective of this …

PAPR Reduction for OFDM System Using Adaptive PTS Combined with Interleaving Technique
Abstract: Partial transmits sequence (PTS) is one of the methods used for reduction of the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme. In this, as the number of sub-blocks and rotation factors increases PAPR is reduced. While increasing the number of subcarriers, the complexity exponentially increases and thus, there occurs the process delay. An adaptive PTS scheme collectively with localized and interleaving technique has been proposed in this …

Supported cobalt-promoted platinum bimetallic nanoparticles – a thermal study
Abstract: The Co-promoted Pt-based bimetallic catalysts were prepared using surface organometallic method (SOMC), to obtain catalysts with cobalt to platinum surface atomic ratio of 1:2 and 1:1. Temperature-programmed reduction (TPR) profiles showed two distinct temperature regions for hydrogen uptake both by the parent 5% Pt/Al2O3 and the Co-promoted catalysts. The shift in peak maxima in the case of promoted catalysts to higher temperatures has been interpreted as a result of formation …

Heteroscedasticity in Survey Data and Model Selection based on Weighted Schwarz-Bayesian Information Criterion
Abstract: AbstractThis paper proposed Weighted Schwarz Bayesian Information criterion for the purpose of selecting a best model from various competing models, when heteroscedasticity is present in the survey data. The authors found that the information loss between the true model and fitted models are equally weighted, instead of giving unequal weights. The computation of weights purely depends on the differential entropy of each sample observation and traditional Schwarz Bayesian information criterion …

Assessment of Clayey Soils and Bentonite to Use as Compacted Clay Liner for the Disposal of Municipal Solid Wastes at Lucknow City, India
Abstract: Dumping of municipal solid wastes in a pit without liner causes groundwater contamination. Use of locally available clayey soils will be a cost-effective landfill technique. Mixing of locally available soils with bentonite reduces the permeability. To develop the liner for the disposal of municipal solid wastes generated from Lucknow city, India, the soil samples were collected from three different locations as nearby the Sagar Institute, Barabanki district; near railway crossing, …
