Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA LOW-COST EFFECTIVE UWB LOCATION SYSTEM BASED ON FREQUENCY SYNTHESIS TECHNOLOGYQilong Zhang, Fei QinWireless location system based on UWB signals has been widely utilized by wireless network recently, especially for the indoor scenarios where GPS signal has been heavily attenuated. However, due to the requirement of ultra wideband signals, existing location system usually faces problems including complexity, robust and cost, which limit the potential applications. In this study, we propose a new approach … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 26 Dec 2014 · 7,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordPurification of Natural Gas with Impurities using Membrane Processes: Parameter EstimationN. W. Jusoh, K. K. Lau, A. M. ShariffProblem statement: Membrane processes have received a significantly high attention on natural gas separation processes since this technology provides higher operating and cost advantages as compared to other technologies. One of the major problems related to natural gas separation using membrane is the existence of feed impurities including CO2, heavy hydrocarbon and water. Approach: Hence, mathematical model that is able … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 22 May 2012 · 8,426 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Rigorous Mathematical Approach for Petrophysical Properties EstimationDario VibertiProblem statement: Over the last few decades, the oil industry has shown a growing interest in the new risk analysis methodologies aimed at the evaluation of the uncertainties associated with reservoir exploitation. In particular, the effort is made to take all possible sources of uncertainties into account so that not only the strengths but also the potential weaknesses of each … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSEQUENTIAL ESTIMATION OF THE SQUARE OF THE RAYLEIGH PARAMETERMohamed TahirThe problem addressed is that of sequentially estimating the square of the parameter of the Rayleigh distribution, subject to a weighted squared loss plus cost of sampling. We propose a sequential procedure and provide a second-order asymptotic expansion for the incurred regret. It is seen that the asymptotic regret is negative for a range of values of the parameter. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 19 Jun 2014 · 6,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEstimation of Pan Coefficient using M5 Model TreePakorn Ditthakit, Chaiyuth ChinnarasriProblem statement: Pan Evaporation has extensively been used for estimating reference Evapotranspiration (ETo) due to its simplicity, low cost, ease of data interpretation and application and suitability for locations with limited availability of meteorological data. With this method, the pan coefficient (Kp) is a key element to be determined as well as the pan Evaporation (Ep) data. Approach: This study … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 29 Feb 2012 · 8,109 accessesView PDFCite
