Outage Analysis of Multihop Wireless Backhaul Using Millimeter Wave under Blockage Effects by Haejoon Jung, In-Ho Lee

“…Assuming the mm-Wave wireless backhaul links suffer from outage caused by obstacles that block the line-of-sight (LoS) paths, we derive the statistics of a perhop distance based on the blockage model using stochastic geometry and random shape theory and analyze the multihop outage probability using the statistics of a perhop distance. We also provide an optimal number of hops to minimize the end-to-end outage performance between the MBS and the destination SBS cluster when the end-to-end distance is given.…”

Intelligent Prediction of Sieving Efficiency in Vibrating Screens by Bin Zhang, Jinke Gong, Wenhua Yuan, Jun Fu, Yi Huang

“…Based on the experiments, least square support vector machine (LS-SVM) was established to predict the sieving efficiency, and adaptive genetic algorithm and cross-validation algorithm were used to optimize the parameters in LS-SVM. By the examination of testing points, the prediction performance of least square support vector machine is better than that of the existing formula and neural network, and its average relative error is only 4.2%.…”
