Approach: … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCooperative Sensing in Cognitive Radio Networks-Avoid Non-Perfect Reporting ChannelRania A. Mokhtar, Sabira Khatun, B. M. Ali, A. RamliProblem statement: Cognitive radio is a candidate technology for more efficient spectrum utilization systems based on opportunistic spectrum sharing. However, a common assumption regarding cognitive radios is that they are unlicensed spectrum users that should defer to (avoid interfering with) existing primary sources. Therefore effective sensing of primary users was a major focus of current research. Cooperative spectrum sensing had … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,742 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of Soft Wood Wastes as a Feed Stock to Produce Fuel EthanolAdnan M. Khalil, Ali F. Al-Shawabkeh, Ayman S. Mazahreh et al.Problem statement: The current research investigated the utilization of soft wood waste as a feedstock to produce a value-added product-fuel ethanol. Approach: The main issue in converting soft wood waste to fuel ethanol is the accessibility of the polysaccharides for breaking down into monosaccharides. This study focused on the use of steam as the pretreatment method. The governing factors for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,632 accessesView PDFCite
