Abstract This paper presents an ultra-miniaturized skin implantable Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) antenna for biotelemetry in the Industrial, Scientific, and Medical (ISM) band (2.4–2.48 GHz). The two-element configuration exhibits a compact planar volume of 4.5 × 6.2 × 0.25 mm³, with an edge-to-edge distance of 0.8 mm and a 75.85 % size reduction. Fabricated on a 0.25 mm thick Roger 10.2LM high permittivity substrate, the antenna achieves a Fractional Bandwidth (FBW) of 9.27 % and a realized gain of −28.2 dBi, with over 24.3 dB isolation across the entire band. Experimental results in multilayer animal tissue aligned well with simulations. Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) analysis at 1 W input power showed values of 848 W/kg (1-g) and 88.46 W/kg (10-g), yielding allowable input powers of 3.77 mW and 45.2 mW, respectively, adhering to international safety guidelines. The 2 × 2 element antenna demonstrated efficient communication over 7 m with a data rate of 78 Mbps/s. Multiple Input Multiple Output channel analysis revealed a Channel Capacity of 10.8 bps/Hz at a 20 dB SNR, nearly double that of an ideal Single Input Single Output system, making it suitable for high data rate skin-implantable applications.

Comprehensive analysis of services towards Data Aggregation, Data Fusion and enhancing security in IoT-based smart home

Data aggregation and sensors data fusion would be very helpful in a number of developing fields, including deep learning, driverless cars, smart cities, and the Internet of Things (IoT). An advanced smart home application will test the upgraded Constrained Application Protocol (CoAP) using Contiki Cooja. Smart home can enhance people’s comfort. Secure authentication between the transmitter and recipient nodes is essential for providing IoT services. In many IoT applications, device data are critical. Current encryption techniques use complicated arithmetic for security. However, these arithmetic techniques waste power. Hash algorithms can authenticate these IoT applications. Mobile protection issues must be treated seriously, because smart systems are automatically regulated. CoAP lets sensors send and receive server data with an energy-efficient hash function to increase security and speed. SHA224, SHA-1, and SHA256 were tested by the CoAP protocol. Proposed model showed that SHA 224 starts secure sessions faster than SHA-256 and SHA-1. The ChaCha ci. This study proposed enhanced ChaCha, a stream cipher for low-duty-cycle IoT devices. For wireless connections between the IoT gateway and sensors with a maximum throughput of 1.5 Mbps, the proposed model employs a wireless error rate (WER) of 0.05; the throughput rises with an increase in the transmission data rate.

Performance Analysis of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing System using Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm

This research aims to optimize the interference mitigation and improve system performance metrics, such as bit error rates, inter-carrier interference (ICI), and inter-symbol interference (ISI), by integrating the Redundant Discrete Wavelet Transform (RDWT) with the Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm (AOA). This will increase the spectral efficiency of MIMO-OFDM systems for ultra-high data rate (UHDR) transmission in 5G networks. The most important contribution of this study is the innovative combination of RDWT and AOA, which effectively addresses the down sampling issues in DWT-OFDM systems and significantly improves both error rates and data rates in high-speed wireless communication. Fifth-generation wireless networks require transmission at ultra-high data rates, which necessitates reducing ISI and ICI. Multiple-input multiple-output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) is employed to achieve the UHDR. The bandwidth and orthogonality of DWT-OFDM (discrete wavelet transform-based OFDM) are increased; however system performance is degraded due to down sampling. The redundant discrete wavelet transform (RDWT) is proposed for eliminating down sampling complexities. Simulation results demonstrate that RDWT effectively lowers bit error rates, ICI, and ISI by increasing the carrier-to-interference power ratio (CIR). The Arithmetic Optimization Algorithm is used to optimize ICI cancellation weights, further enhancing spectrum efficiency. The proposed method is executed in MATLAB and achieves notable performance gains: up to 82.95% lower error rates and 39.88% higher data rates compared to the existing methods. Conclusion: The integration of RDWT with AOA represents a significant advancement in enhancing the spectral efficiency of MIMO-OFDM systems for UHDR transmission in 5G networks. The proposed method not only enhances system performance but also lays a foundation for future developments in high-speed wireless communication by addressing down sampling issues and optimizing interference mitigation.

Sum rate optimization in STAR-RIS assisted multiuser massive MIMO-OFDM VLC systems

Visible Light Communication (VLC) offers a promising solution for future networks, leveraging existing lighting infrastructure in indoor environments. However, VLC requires a direct line of sight to function which can be limiting. Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) is a new technology that can bend light and radio waves, addressing this limitation in VLC. RIS come in three types: passive which reflects signals, active that boosts and reflects signals, and Simultaneous Transmission and Reflection (STAR)-RIS which can both reflect and transmit signals simultaneously. STAR-RIS offers the most control over the signal. In this paper, we propose a new multi-user VLC system with a massive Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) architecture, leveraging STAR-RIS to optimize data rates and improve coverage, particularly in non-line-of-sight scenarios. We formulate a system model and solve a convex optimization problem to determine the optimal transmission and reflection coefficients for STAR-RIS elements, aiming to maximize the total sum rate for all users. By employing maximum ratio transmission precoding, we minimize interference among users and demonstrate significant performance gains. Simulation results show that our proposed energy splitting-based STAR-RIS configuration outperforms traditional mode selection and time switching approaches with fixed or random coefficients, yielding substantial improvements in data rates and user experience. This study offers the first detailed exploration of STAR-RIS in VLC systems, highlighting its potential for future high-speed, multi-user communication networks. Our findings set the stage for further research into optimizing VLC systems using STAR-RIS, particularly in complex environments with non-line-of-sight users and massive MIMO-OFDM configurations.

Ultra‐wide Band Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna Using Metasurface Lens for Gain and Front‐To‐Back Ratio (FBR) Improvement

AbstractThis paper addresses the limited gain of conventional Antipodal Vivaldi Antenna (AVA) at higher frequencies. We propose a novel Metamaterial Lens Vivaldi Antenna (MLVA) design that overcomes this limitation by integrating an exponentially tapered antenna lens and a strategically placed Near Zero Refractive Index (NRZI) metamaterial lattice. The MLVA achieves exceptional wideband performance with a −3 dB gain bandwidth exceeding 148.6% from 3.7 to 25 GHz. The result demonstrates a peak realized gain of 11.8 dBi at 11.2 GHz, compared to 9.1 dBi conventional AVA, especially beyond 5 GHz. The compact MLVA design measures only 120 × 78 × 1.524 mm3 (1.48 × 0.96 × 0.0188λ03) λ0 where free‐space wavelength is the lowest frequency and is fabricated on RO4350 B substrate with a 50‐Ω SMA connector. Key features of the design include exponential flaring, and trapezoidal lens geometries chosen for their inherent ability to effectively collimate and direct the spherical wavefront. The incorporation of a dielectric lens and metasurface further enhances gain and Front‐to‐Back Ratio (FBR) by directing the majority of energy in the end‐fire direction. Experimental results validate the effectiveness of the proposed design, confirming simulation predictions. These outstanding characteristics make the MLVA a promising candidate for diverse wireless communication and radar applications demanding high data rates across a broad frequency range.

The optical data transport system of the KM3NeT neutrino telescope at the bottom of the Mediterranean Sea will serve more than 6000 optical modules in the detector arrays with a point-to-point optical connection to the control stations onshore. The ARCA and ORCA detectors of KM3NeT are being installed at a depth of about 3500 m and 2500 m, respectively and their distance to the control stations is about 100 km and 40 km. The two detectors are optimised for the detection of cosmic neutrinos with energies above about 1 TeV (ARCA) and of atmospheric neutrinos with energies in the range 1 GeV– 1 TeV (ORCA). The expected maximum data rate is 200 Mbps per optical module. The implemented optical data transport system matches the layouts of the networks of electro-optical cables and junction boxes in the deep sea. For efficient use of the fibres in the system the technology of Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing is applied. To comply with the scientific goals of KM3NeT, a time calibration of 1 ns between the many optical modules in the detector arrays is essential for the reconstruction of the neutrino events. For the first time in a deep sea neutrino telescope the White Rabbit protocol over Ethernet is used for the clock distribution. Downstream slow control and base module signals are broadcasted to all optical modules in the detector array. Synchronisation is achieved by communication between a White Rabbit master onshore and a White Rabbit slave unit inside the optical modules. In this contribution the KM3NeT broadcast optical data transport system is presented.

Enhancing Wireless Communication Efficiency Using Dynamic Nonlinear Distortion Adaptive Optimization Analysis

Abstract Modern communication networks require improved signal quality and spectrum efficiency. Modern wireless communication relies heavily on the multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology to improve spectrum efficiency and achieve faster data rates. However, the performance of MIMO systems is significantly hampered by non-linear distortions in power amplifiers (PA), especially under dynamic operating conditions. Traditional methods to reduce these distortions often lack the adaptability required for effective optimization. The proposed dynamic nonlinear distortion adaptive optimization analysis (DNDAOA) therefore introduces an adaptive approach that dynamically adjusts the pre-distortion signals using real-time feedback mechanisms. DNDAOA effectively reduces non-linear distortions and thus improves the performance of MIMO systems. Simulation results show that DNDAOA significantly increases spectrum efficiency, reduces error rates, and improves signal quality. This method is widely used in areas such as wireless telecommunications, internet of things (IoT), autonomous vehicles, and smart infrastructure, driving advances in connectivity, reliability, and data integrity.

CaloFlux: a tool to estimate fluxes in calorimeters at colliders

In high-granularity calorimetry, as proposed for detectors at future electron-positron Higgs factories, the requirements on electronics can have a strong impact on the design of the detector, especially via the cooling and data acquisition systems. Estimating the data rate is a difficult task due to the very large number of channels, the complexity of the calorimeter system's geometry, and the intricacies of the readout system. The CaloFlux software package presented here eases this task by establishing the typical fluxes-deposited energy, number of cells above the electronics threshold, power consumption, and associated data-in rate histograms for selections of components, from fully simulated physics and background events by scaling with proper rates. The ILD calorimeter system is taken as a specific example, upon which different histograms are obtained for representative parts of the calorimeter and for various machine configurations. Examples of histograms are shown, along with details of the data used and the simulation.

Multicarrier dual‐index permuted chaos shift keying system for efficiency improvement in chaotic communications

AbstractWe propose a multicarrier chaotic system that incorporates dual‐index and M‐ary modulation techniques. The proposed system improves the energy and spectrum efficiencies with a tradeoff in computational complexity. In addition, it applies index modulation to select the chaotic signal and permuted chaotic signals along with ‐ary modulated symbols. As a result, the spectral and energy efficiencies are increased in chaotic systems. Theoretical expressions are derived to calculate the bit error rate of the proposed system under additive white Gaussian noise and Rayleigh fading channels. The equations are validated through Monte Carlo simulations, whose results demonstrate a reduction in bit error rate for the proposed system. The data rate, spectral efficiency, energy efficiency, and computational complexity of the proposed system are analyzed and compared with those of existing multicarrier chaotic systems.

A compact circularly polarized dielectric resonator antenna with MIMO characterizations for UWB applications.

Ultra-wideband (UWB) technology is extensively used in indoor navigation, medical applications, and Internet of Things devices due to its low power consumption and resilience against multipath fading and losses. This paper examines a multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO), circularly polarized (CP) dielectric resonator antenna for UWB systems. Compact form factor, high gain, wideband response, improved port isolation, and high data rates are the major design goals. This arrangement consists of two identical DRAs with self-decoupled orthogonal orientations eliminating the need for extra decoupling structures while achieving an impressive maximum isolation of 43 dB. The corner-edge feeding mechanism of the extended feedline generates two orthogonal E-fields, facilitating circular polarization. Additionally, a printed hook-shaped stub integrated with the ground plane enhances CP performance across the two operating bands without altering the DR structure. Fabrication and testing exhibit an impressive 133 impedance bandwidth (2.5-14 GHz) with high port isolation. For a 3 dB axial ratio reference, the single-element design exhibits axial ratio bandwidths (ARBW) of 1.2 GHz (3.6-4.8 GHz) and 0.8 GHz (9.3-10.1 GHz). Remarkably, the MIMO configuration achieves a single ARBW of 0.5 GHz (3.9-4.4 GHz). Detailed investigations of MIMO performance parameters, including diversity gain, envelope correlation coefficient, channel capacity loss, and total active reflection coefficient, underscore the design's efficacy, making it a good choice for UWB wireless applications.

Investigating performance of optical communication system with FSO/OWC channel

Abstract In recent years, the evolution of optical wireless communication (OWC) system has emerged as a viable alternative to radio frequency communication. These technologies provide an effective solution for addressing the need for point-to-point communication, offering benefits such as higher bandwidth, faster data rates, no licensing requirements, low power usage, quick and simple installation, enhanced security, and resistance to electromagnetic interference. In this article, we analyze two wireless optical communication systems: one using an FSO channel and the other using an OWC channel. The analysis focuses on range and quality factor as performance metrics. We examine the performance of one-to-many Tx/Rx FSO/OWC channel under three different atmospheric conditions: clear weather, haze, and fog, using eye diagrams. The system analysis includes mathematical models for the received optical power and the pointing error. Additionally, we investigate the impact of spatial diversity on the performance of FSO/OWC channel with configurations of 1 × 1, 2 × 2, 4 × 4, and 8 × 8. Our findings indicate that the 8 × 8 FSO/OWC configurations yield better results compared to other configurations and the OWC channel performs well over long distances up to 110 km, while the FSO channel is more suitable for short range communication up to 37 km.

Evaluating the Impact of Mid-Link Bandwidth Constraints on Video Streaming Performance Using NS2

A detailed simulation study of video streaming over a simple best-effort network topology is conducted using Network Simulator 2 (NS2). The simulation involves transmitting a video stream across a simple network topology where the central link's data rate varies to simulate different cases. The network topology consists of : node 0 (sender), node 3 (receiver), and nodes 1 and 2 as intermediate nodes. The study aims to examine the impact of mid-link bandwidth variations on packet loss during video transmission. Specifically, the mid-link connecting nodes experience bandwidth reductions to 10, 8, and 5 Mbps. By adjusting the mid-link bandwidth, we simulate scenarios that typically cause packet drops and measure the resulting packet loss for each bandwidth configuration. The simulation results provide insights into how bandwidth constraints affect video streaming performance, emphasizing the correlation between reduced mid-link capacity and increased packet drop rates. The results indicate that maintaining the video encoding constant while reducing the mid-link bandwidth to half of its required capacity results in an approximately 30% rise in dropped packets and a fivefold increase in end-to-end delay. This significant packet loss severely degrades the video quality, highlighting the importance of adequate mid-link bandwidth for maintaining high-quality transmission.

Performance analysis of a 400-Gbps DWDM-FSO system using advanced modulation formats and under adverse weather conditions

Free space optical (FSO) systems offer an attractive and cost-effective solution for providing communication services in remote regions, as they allow secure transmission without the need for licensing and with lower deployment costs. However, the performance of FSO systems can be significantly impacted by atmospheric turbulences, creating considerable challenges to their deployment. To meet the expanding bandwidth requirements in optical networks, dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) has emerged as a viable option. The development of a 400-Gbps DWDM-FSO system with advanced modulation formats is the subject of this paper. To ensure efficient energy conservation in such a system, power consumption needs to be minimized while maintaining performance level; this calls for optimization of different components within the system. The system is made up of 10 channels and each channel can transmit data at 40 Gbps. Various modulation schemes like carrier-suppressed return-to-zero, modified duo binary return-to-zero, differential phase shift keying, and duo binary return-to-zero are studied for their impact on system performance parameters Q-factor and bit error rate (BER) in C-band around 1550 nm wavelengths. The assessment is also extended to the effects that changing FSO length, input power, and data rate have on these two parameters as well as an evaluation regarding how differing atmospheric conditions influence the FSO system’s effectiveness.

Device-to-device (D2D) communications allow short-range communication devices to multiplex cellular-licensed spectrum to directly establish local connections for ultra-high number of terminal connections and greater system throughput. However, spectrum sharing also brings serious interference to the network. Therefore, a reliable and efficient resource allocation strategy is important to mitigate the interference and improve the system spectral efficiency. In this paper, we investigated spectrum access and power allocation in D2D communications underlay cellular networks based on deep reinforcement learning with the aim of finding a feasible resource allocation strategy to maximize data rate and system fairness. We proposed a value decomposition network-based resource allocation scheme for D2D communication networks. Our proposed scheme avoids frequent information exchanges among D2D users by centralized training, while allowing D2D users to make distributed joint resource allocation decisions. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme has stable convergence and good scalability, and can effectively improve the system capacity.

Solution-Processed CsPbBr3 Perovskite Photodetectors for Cost-Efficient Underwater Wireless Optical Communication System.

Underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) has attracted increasing attention due to its advantages in bandwidth, latency, interference resistance, and security. Photodetectors, as a crucial part of receivers, have been continuously developed with the great progress that has been made in advanced materials. Metal halide perovskites emerging as promising optoelectronic materials in the past decade have been used to fabricate various high-performance photodetectors. In this work, high-performance CsPbBr3 perovskite PDs were realized via solution process, with low noise, a high responsivity, and a fast response. Based on these perovskite PDs, a cost-efficient UWOC system was successfully demonstrated on an FPGA platform, achieving a data rate of 6.25 Mbps with a low bit error rate of 0.36%. Due to lower background noise under environment illumination, perovskite PDs exhibit better communication stability before reaching a data rate threshold; however, the BER increases rapidly due to the long fall time, resulting in difficulty in distinguishing switching signals. Reducing the fall time of perovskite PDs and using advanced coding techniques can help to further improve the performance of the UWOC system based on perovskite PDs. This work not only demonstrates the potential of perovskite PDs in the application of UWOC, but also improves the development of a cost-effective UWOC system based on FPGAs.
