Low-Power Wake-Up Receivers for Resilient Cellular Internet of Things by Siyu Wang, Trevor J. Odelberg, Peter W. Crary, Mason P. Obery, David D. Wentzloff

“…Many IoT use cases require low latency but cannot afford high-power radios continuously operating to accomplish this. In these cases, wake-up receivers (WURs) are a promising solution: while the high-power main radio (MR) is turned off/idle, a lightweight WUR is continuously monitoring the RF channel; when it detects a wake-up sequence, the WUR will turn on the MR for subsequent communications. …”

Maximum principle for the mass fraction in a system with two mass balance equations by Lazare, Gauthier, Feng, Qingqing, Helluy, Philippe, Hérard, Jean-Marc, Hulsemann, Frank, Pujet, Stéphane

“…Three Finite Volume schemes are proposed in this note to satisfy the maximum principle for the mass fraction $y$, solution of an unsteady balance equation, including a relative velocity between phases and a source term. The continuous maximum principle is examined first. Then, linear implicit discrete schemes are detailed in a multi-dimensional and unstructured framework.…”

Opial type Lp-inequalities for fractional derivatives by G. A. Anastassiou, J. J. Koliha, J. Pecaric

“…This paper presents a class of Lp-type Opial inequalities for generalized fractional derivatives for integrable functions based on the results obtained earlier by the first author for continuous functions (1998). The novelty of our approach is the use of the index law for fractional derivatives in lieu of Taylor's formula, which enables us to relax restrictions on the orders of fractional derivatives.…”
