The Objective Function (OF) can be used by the Routing protocol for low power lossy networks (RPL) to construct a Destination Oriented Directed Acyclic Graph (DODAG) based on routing metrics. The standard OFs suffer from long hops when selecting the route, which may cause consume the node’s energy faster. In this paper, we suggest an improvement of RPL OF that considers three metrics. The results show that the proposed protocol increases network lifetime by reducing energy consumption, increasing efficiency, increasing Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), and decreasing packet loss ratio. In terms of PDR, packet loss ratio, and average power consumption, the best performance of the proposed protocol is shown in the network with 70 nodes and when the transmission range is 50m. Compared with the MRHOF, the proposed protocol increased the PDR by 58.425%, decreased the packet loss ratio by 0.21765, and decreased the total power consumption by 181.815mW. In terms of the average Expected Transmission Count (ETX) the best performance of the proposed protocol is shown in the network with 60 nodes and the transmission range is 40m. The proposed protocol reduced the average ETX by 49 compared to the MRHOF.

— Reducing the sensors' energy expenditure to prolong the network lifespan as long as possible remains a fundamental problem in the field of wireless networks. Particularly in applications with inaccessible environments, which impose crucial constraints on sensor replacement. It is, therefore, necessary to design adaptive routing protocols, taking into account the environmental constraints and the limited energy of sensors. To have an energy-efficient routing protocol, a new cluster heads’ (CHs) selection strategy using a modified multi-objective artificial bees colony (MOABC) optimization is defined. The modified MOABC is based on the roulette wheel selection over non-dominated solutions of the repository (hyper-cubes) in which a rank is assigned to each hypercube based on its density in dominated solutions of the current iteration and then a random food source is elected by roulette from the densest hypercube. The proposed work aims to find the optimal set of CHs based on their residual energies to ensure an optimal balance between the nodes' energy consumption. The achieved results proved that the proposed MOABC-based protocol considerably outperforms recent studies and well-known energy-efficient protocols, namely: LEACH, C-LEACH, SEP, TSEP, DEEC, DDEEC, and EDEEC in terms of energy efficiency, stability, and network lifespan extension.

—The human exposure assessment to wireless com- munications systems including the fifth generation (5G) mobile systems is related to determining the specific absorption rate (SAR) or the absorbed power density (APD). The assessment of both quantities requires the use of various numerical techniques, including moments method (MoM). As the use of MoM results in a fully populated system matrix, a tremendous computational cost is incurred, both in terms of matrix fill time and memory allocation, as the matrix size is directly related to frequency of the problem. This paper investigates the applicability of numerical integration at frequencies related to 5G. The novelty of this work is related to the comprehensive set of tests of various combination of source and observation triangles using the developed unit cube test. A number of convergence tests were performed to investigate the effects of the increasing frequency and the discretization scheme on the numerical solution, as well as to determine how to curb the computational requirements by the proficient use of numerical integration. The results show that in the lower GHz range, lower integration orders could be used, resulting in the decrease of matrix fill time without loss of solution accuracy.

—Spatio-temporal modelling is an emerging research area due to the increasing availability of sensor data collected across space and time. The models are build either with a model- driven or data-driven approach. The former often results in complex monolith models that are not suitable for lightweight Edge deployment. The latter requires a vast amount of data and may not provide an overall good performance. Consequently, the data-driven approach is being used to substitute only parts of model-driven outputs, by creating micromodels that tackle spe- cific scenarios. The main contribution of this paper is a definition and demonstration of the process for finding such scenarios for which a spatio-temporal model could be improved or replaced by a micromodel and deployed on Edge. The process is demonstrated on an example of a Numerical Weather Prediction model (NWP), namely its outputs of temperature and precipitation. NWP is evaluated using black-box testing considering the specificity of spatial and temporal components, in both normal and extreme conditions. The novelty of this process is its ability to highlight weaknesses of the existing expert models and suggest scenarios in which the models can be improved and deployed on the Edge.

— The Subcarrier Index Modulation OFDM (SIM– OFDM) appeared in 2009 promising a –3 dB transmitted power reduction without affecting the system performance. Therefore, it became an attractive choice to upgrade the communication systems with researchers’ increasing interest. Despite the research efforts in SIM–OFDM field, there was no in-depth investigation for such transmitted power reduction or the system’s performance. The claimed power reduction relies on probabilistic assumptions that were not validated considering system operation concepts. This paper provides a new analytical model that characterizes the actual SIM–OFDM behavior. The contribution of this model is the inclusion of the majority condition in the derivation of 1’s pmf which modifies the 1’s pmf into a complex nonlinear function that is always higher than 1/2. The new pmf effect upon the power reduction, synchronization, and the overall Bit Error Rate ( BER ) is investigated. The new analytical model shows that the –3 dB power reduction cannot be achieved. Also, no successful synchronization can be established unless extra subcarrier is added that will create a frame like communication system. Such scheme increases BER if the carrier is falsely detected creating a Frame Error Rate ( FER ) which might lead to serious problem.

—Radon Transform (RT) becomes a mathematical basis for solving computerized tomography, and finds application in medical imaging and image processing. Finite groups represent digital images; the Finite Radon Transform (FRAT) is then applied. To overcome the periodization effect of a finite transform, Do and Vetterli [1] introduce a novel ordering of the FRAT coefficients. This paper introduced a detailed mathematical analysis of the optimal ordering of FRAT coefficients that introduces new normal vectors that are clearly identified with examples producing the FRAT transform. Lately FRAT is used with OFDM systems as an M-Ary mapping technique, thus, the signal constellation of some of the different orders of FRAT is presented as well as generating the OFDM symbols from the output of FRAT. This procedure leads to extra investigation on the performance of FRAT-based OFDM systems in comparison with the QAM mapping techniques.

—In this paper, we study the problem of beam track- ing of a multipath channel in millimeter-wave massive MIMO communication system using adaptive filters. We focus on the performance of least-mean-square filter (LMS) and recursive least-squares filter (RLS) algorithms, compared to a reference extended Kalman filter (EKF), in scenarios where the wireless channel is dominated by a single line of sight (LOS) path or a small number of strong paths. The signal direction and channel coefficients are tracked and updated using these filters. Our results recommend that beamforming systems at millimeter-wave bands should consider variable number of paths rather than a single dominant LOS path. Furthermore, we show that the mean squared-error (MSE) of the innovation process gives a better overall view of the tracking performance than the MSE of the state parameters.

—Establishing trust-based interactions in heteroge- neously connected devices appears to be the prominent mechanism in addressing the prevailing concerns of confidence, re- liability and privacy relevant in establishing secure interactions among connected devices in the network. Trust-based assessment of device legitimacy is evolving given IoT devices’ dynamic and heterogeneous nature and emerging adversaries. However, computation and application of trust level in establishing secure communications, access control and privacy domain are rarely discussed in the literature. To compute trust, based on the quality of service, direct interactions, and the relationship between devices, we introduce a multi-factor trust computation model that considers the multiple attributes of interactions in an IoT network of heterogeneous devices providing a wide range of data and services. Direct trust is estimated for quality of service considering the response time, reliability, consistency, and integrity attributes of devices. The time decay factor influences the credibility of computed trust over time. The policy-driven mechanism is employed to sift the devices and isolate the mali- cious ones. Extensive simulations validate the proposed model’s effectiveness using Contiki’s Cooja simulator for IoT networks.
