Study on adaptive modulation in D2D communications over Nakagami-m fading channel by Xiaoping ZENG, Haiwei MAO, Fan YANG, Xin JIAN, Shiqi LI, Xin JIANG, Wei FANG

“…A novel adaptive modulation based on nondata-aided error vector magnitude (NDA-EVM) was proposed to solve the problem of lower spectral efficiency in device to device (D2D) communication over Nakagami-m fading channel.The NDA-EVM was used to evaluate the channel quality.The relationship between NDA-EVM and symbol error ratio (SER) was derived according to the maximum likelihood method.Thereafter,the adaptive modulation mechanism of MQAM with the SER constraint was designed.Considering the joint effect of finite-length queuing and fading channel,the system packet loss rate and spectral efficiency was analyzed.Theoretical analysis and simulation experiments show that NDA-EVM based adaptive modulation accurately gives the modulation threshold and evaluates the relationship between QoS and packet loss rate,the proposed algorithm improves system spectral efficiency while maintaining low algorithm complexity,spectral efficiency improves by 0.752 bit·(s·Hz)^-1,compared with traditional algorithm.…”

Preventing flow table overflow against denial of service attack in software defined network by Dongbin WANG, Dongzhe WU, Hui ZHI, Kun GUO, Xu ZHANG, Jinqiao SHI, Yu ZHANG, Yueming LU

“…Aiming at denial of service attacks would cause overflow of the limited flow table space of the switch in software defined network, failure to install flow table rules for normal network packets, packet forwarding delay, and packet loss, FloodMitigation was proposed to prevent flow table overflow against denial of service attacks in software defined network.The management of the rate-limit flow rule installation based on available flow table space was adopted to limit the maximum installation speed of flow rules and the number of flow table space occupied by switch ports with denial-of-service attacks, and avoid flow table overflow.In addition, path selection based on available flow table space was adopted to balance flow table utilization of switches among multiple forwarding paths to avoid denial of service attacks on switches with less available flow table in the path.The experimental results demonstrate that FloodMitigation can effectively alleviate the harm of denial of service attacks in terms of preventing switch flow table overflow and packet loss, reducing resource consumption of controllers, and ensuring packet forwarding delay.…”

The Significance of Soy Protein and Soy Bioactive Compounds in the Prophylaxis and Treatment of Osteoporosis by Sa'eed Bawa

“…It has been suggested that dietary protein intake may be a risk factor for osteoporosis, and high-protein diets are associated with increased bone loss. Many scientists have examined the relationship between types of protein and urinary calcium excretion, and found that although animal protein was associated with increased urinary calcium excretion, soy protein was not. …”
