Low-cost 3D Kinect-based imaging systems have the potential for providing automated accurate anthropometric and related body measurements for relatively large components; further hardware and software developments may be able to improve system small-component resolution.
Device-to-Device (D2D) communication has emerged as a promising technique for improving capacity and reducing power consumption in wireless networks. Most existing works on D2D communications either targeted CDMA-based singlechannel networks or aimed to maximize network throughput. In this paper, we, however, aim at enabling green D2D communications in OFDMA-based wireless networks. We formally define an optimization problem based on a practical link data rate model, whose objective is to minimize power consumption while meeting user data rate requirements. We then present an effective algorithm to solve it in polynomial time, which jointly determines mode selection, channel allocation and power assignment. It has been shown by extensive simulation results that the proposed algorithm can achieve over 57% power savings, compared to several baseline methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
