Abstract The development of the Next-Generation Wireless Network
(NGWN) is becoming a reality. To conduct specialized processes more, rapid
network deployment has become essential. Methodologies like Network
Function Virtualization (NFV), Software-Defined Networks (SDN), and
cloud computing will be crucial in addressing various challenges that 5G
networks will face, particularly adaptability, scalability, and reliability. The
motivation behind this work is to confirm the function of virtualization
and the capabilities offered by various virtualization platforms, including
hypervisors, clouds, and containers, which will serve as a guide to dealing
with the stimulating environment of 5G. This is particularly crucial when
implementing network operations at… More >

Abstract Big data is usually unstructured, and many applications require the
analysis in real-time. Decision tree (DT) algorithm is widely used to analyze
big data. Selecting the optimal depth of DT is time-consuming process as it
requires many iterations. In this paper, we have designed a modified version
of a (DT). The tree aims to achieve optimal depth by self-tuning running
parameters and improving the accuracy. The efficiency of the modified (DT)
was verified using two datasets (airport and fire datasets). The airport dataset
has 500000 instances and the fire dataset has 600000 instances. A comparison
has been made between the… More >

Abstract This paper presents a compact Multiple Input Multiple Output
(MIMO) antenna with WLAN band notch for Ultra-Wideband (UWB)
applications. The antenna is designed on 0.8 mm thick low-cost FR-4 substrate
having a compact size of 22 mm × 30 mm. The proposed antenna comprises
of two monopole patches on the top layer of substrate while having a shared
ground on its bottom layer. The mutual coupling between adjacent patches
has been reduced by using a novel stub with shared ground structure. The stub
consists of complementary rectangular slots that disturb the surface current
direction and thus result in reducing mutual… More >

Abstract Watermarking of digital images is required in diversified applications ranging from medical imaging to commercial images used over the web.
Usually, the copyright information is embossed over the image in the form of
a logo at the corner or diagonal text in the background. However, this form
of visible watermarking is not suitable for a large class of applications. In all
such cases, a hidden watermark is embedded inside the original image as proof
of ownership. A large number of techniques and algorithms are proposed
by researchers for invisible watermarking. In this paper, we focus on issues
that are critical… More >
