In this paper, we consider the problem of secret communication through Rayleigh fading single-input multiple-output (SIMO) broadcast channel in the presence of an eavesdropper. At...
The popularity of multimedia multicast/broadcast applications over wireless networks makes it critical to address the error-prone, heterogeneous and dynamically changing nature of ...
In this paper, a decode-and-forward (DF) single relay model in a Rayleigh fading environment is considered. The outage probability and ergodic rate for this model are derived. With...
Due to the limited energy supplies of nodes in many applications like wireless sensor networks, energy efficiency is crucial for extending the lifetime of these networks. This pape...
We estimate with a branching process model the propagation of load shed and the probability distribution of load shed in simulated blackouts of an electric power system. The avera...
