Intelligent Traffic Model for Unmanned Ground Vehicles Based on DSDV-AODV Protocol by Ali M. Ali, Md Asri Ngadi, Israa Ibraheem Al_Barazanchi, Poh Soon JosephNg

“…The topology with 50 fixed + 50 mobile nodes yields the best results, with 0.00062 s delay parameters, a network QoS of 640 bits/s, and a throughput of 629.437 bits/s. Aside from the poor results on the network QoS parameters, the addition of mobile nodes to the topology influences both the results of delay and throughput metrics.…”

Quantized Cooperative Spectrum Sensing in Bandwidth-Constrained Cognitive V2X Based on Deep Learning by Jingxian Li, Bin-Jie Hu

“…We then introduce a quantization-based cooperative spectrum sensing (QBCSS) algorithm based on DL in CR-V2X, and the impact of the number of reported bits on the sensing results is also discussed. Through the experimental results, we conclude that the QBCSS algorithm reaches the optimal detection performance when the number of bits for quantizing local sensing data is 4. …”

Initial Study of the Effect of Some PVD Coatings (“TiN/AlTiN” and “TiAlN/a-C:N”) on the Wear Resistance of Wood Drilling Tools by Paweł Czarniak, Karol Szymanowski, Peter Panjan, Jarosław Górski

“…The main objective of the study was to experimentally check whether two types of PVD coatings (multilayer nanocomposite “TiN/AlTiN” and double-layer coatings “TiAlN/a-C:N”) increase the wear resistance of the drill bits significantly (in terms of statistics). The typical two-blade drill bits intended for drilling in wood-based panels were used. …”
