Due to the concern in the rising of global warming and in the dwindling supply of fossil fuels, global exploitation of renewable energy technologies is increasing spontaneously. Most of the countries in the world are blessed with two or more renewable energy sources (RES) and hence have formulated policies to boost the utilization of RES for their electricity production. In order to further develop the RES based electricity production, an assessment of renewable electricity potential is essential for further research and development related works in the field of renewable energy technologies. Recent developments in installation capacities of hydro, wind, solar, biomass and geothermal based electricity generation are discussed in this paper. From the analysis it is clear that significant amount of fuel cost and pollutants emission can be reduced by the increased use of RES based electrical power production technologies.

The contribution focus on the subsurface real time monitoring techniques and early warning approaches dedicated to stability control of soil, civil engineering works and exploration of geophysics parameters. The electronic devices described are state-of-the-art geotechnical in-place instrument for stability control and differential monitoring of rocks, structures, in casing or borehole, designed mainly to evaluate danger levels of potentially instable areas. The systems can be assembled `in situ' forming an instrumented column, connecting the required number of modules, each containing one or more sensors and the electronic boards for data collection, logging and transmission. The standard structure of the column is composed of a sequence of hard tubular modules connected with each other by special 2D flexible junctions and contains all the electronic sensors for measurement, control and RS485 (or CANopen) transmission. Electronic control devices can support mono and biaxial inclinometers, piezometers, accelerometers, digital compasses etc., to fulfill specific requirements of the monitoring project. The link between sensors and control unit is realized with differential digital mode protocol for a maximum of 256 sensors nodes linked to the central unit basic configuration. The control unit provides for the readings at regular time intervals, according to the requested program. Remote control, download, storage and processing of data are made with a remote control station, equipped with GSM/GPRS integrated transmission and specific software.

WiFi networks carrying IPv6 traffic with Proxy-based mobility support are to considered here. The performance of the handover function is first tested through the analysis of the effects of the packet size and inter-arrival times. Then, the sequence of events occurring during the handover period are scrutinized to observe the drawbacks that led to the obtained results. Finally, some suggestions are given to decrease the number of dropped packets, and thus improving the performance of the system.

Energy-aware connectivity in wireless sensor networks (WSNs) can increase their network lifetime. This can be achieved by optimizing the power control, a particular communication mechanism and the topology control. To this end, in this paper', an energy-aware joint power, packet and topology optimization for WSNs is provided. More specifically, we assume power control based on feedback information, packet transmission through automatic-repeat-request(ARQ) mechanism and topology control assuming specific coverage constraints. This particular joint optimization problem is considered as NP-complete and heuristic methods are usually applied in such complicated cases. In particular, we employ Simulated Annealing (SA) for a step-by-step evaluation of the average energy consumption of sensor nodes, which is considered the objective function of our optimization problem. In each step of the SA algorithm, the resultant topology is evaluated and at the convergence point the near optimal transmit power and packet as well as node placements are obtained jointly.

A coupled-fed antenna design capable of covering eight-band WWAN/LTE operation in a smartphone and suitable to integrate with a USB connector is presented. The antenna comprises an asymmetric T-shaped monopole as a coupling feed and a radiator as well, and a coupled-fed loop strip shorted to the ground plane. The antenna generates a wide lower band to cover (824-960 MHz) for GSM850/900 operation and a very wide upper band of larger than 1 GHz to cover the GPS/GSM1800/1900/UMTS/LTE2300/2500 operation (1565-2690 MHz). The proposed antenna provides wideband operation and exhibits great flexible behavior. The antenna is capable of providing eight-band operation for nine different sizes of PCBs, and enhance impedance matching only by varying a single element length, L. Details of proposed antenna, parameters and performance are presented and discussed in this paper.

This paper presents a Z source inverter connected to grid. The effect of voltage sags on ZSI will be studied when two different ac side control schemes are used. The paper compares the performance of both PI control and deadbeat control. The Z-source inverter employs a unique LC network to couple the inverter main circuit to the diode front end. By controlling the shoot-through duty cycle, the Z-source can theoretically produce any desired output ac voltage, even greater than the line voltage. Hence, this inerter topology provides voltage ride through capability under voltage sags. Simulation results verified the effectiveness and reliability of deadbeat control over PI control.

In recent days, relay assisted cellular networks are gaining more importance in research and development because of the recent adoption of new communication standards with relaying and cooperation communication. This has introduced a multichannel diversity along with the multiuser diversity and the channel aware dynamic resource allocation models. The issue of the optimal location of relays has risen especially when dedicated relays are used as the standard proposes instead of the cooperative model of the users. In this paper, we study the optimal location of a single relay. Furthermore, we study the effect of changing the number of users on the optimal location of the relay. The effect of adding multiple relays to the system is examined. The optimal locations are examined when the relay channels are the only channels to be used by the system and when the direct channel (DT) is also available. The problem formulation assumes, Rayleigh block faded channels, half duplex regenerative (repetition coding) decode-and-forward (DF) relaying strategy, long-term average total transmitted power constraint and orthogonal multiplexing of the users messages within the channel blocks. New simple and accurate approximations to the modified Bessel functions of the first kind, zeroth order I0 (z) and first order I1 (z) are presented. The new proposed approximations are given as a simple finite sum of scaled exponential functions. Comparisons are made between the exact functions, classic approximations, and the new approximation in terms of simplicity and accuracy. The new approximation proves to be sufficiently accurate to bridge the gap between the classic large and small argument approximations and has potential applications in allowing one to analytically evaluate integrals containing Modified Bessel Functions, yielding simple closed-form solutions. A generalized closed-form expression for the average bit error rate over Nakagami-n (Rice) fading, and Rayleigh fading as a special case, are derived as sample applications, and the results are compared with Monte Carlo Simulation, where a very good matching is achieved.

In this paper, we propose new Ultra Wide-Band (UWB) antenna using inverted F-slot in the patch and U-slot in the microstrip feed line. This antenna is designed to cover the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) bandwidth (BW) for UWB applications (3.1-10.6 GHz) beside it has two notch bands: one at the Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) applications based on the IEEE 802.11 standard for the frequency band of (5.15-5.825) GHz, and the other is at the X-band uplink and downlink frequency ranges (7.2-8.4) GHz The antenna has a rectangular patch, microstrip feeding line and partial ground plane. The microstrip feed line is designed for 50 Ω input impedance. The characteristics of the designed structure are investigated by using Finite Element Method (FEM) based electromagnetic solver, High Frequency Structural Simulator (HFSS).
