Yayın Tractable supply chain production planning, modeling nonlinear lead time and quality of service constraints(Elsevier Ltd, 2007) Anlı, Osman Murat; Caramanis, Michael C.; Paschalidis, Ioannis Ch.This paper addresses the task of coordinated planning of a supply chain (SC). Work in process (WIP) in each facility participating in the SC, finished goods inventory, and backlogged demand costs are minimized over the planning horizon. In addition to the usual modeling of linear material flow balance equations, variable lead time (LT) requirements, resulting from the increasing incremental WIP as a facility's utilization increases, are also modeled. In recognition of the emerging significance of quality of service (QoS), that is control of stockout probability to meet demand on time, maximum stockout probability constraints are also modeled explicitly. Lead time and QoS modeling require incorporation of nonlinear constraints in the production planning optimization process. The quantification of these nonlinear constraints must capture statistics of the stochastic behaviour of production facilities revealed during a time scale for shorter than the customary weekly time scale of the planning process. The apparent computational complexity of planning production against variable LT and QoS constraints has long resulted in MRP-based scheduling practices that ignore the LT and QoS constraints has long resulted in MRP-based scheduling practices that ignore the LT and QoS impact to the plan's detriment. The computational complexity challenge was overcome by proposing and adopting a time-scale decomposition approach to production planning where short-time-scale stochastic dynamics are modeled in multiple facility-specific subproblems that receive tentative targets from a deterministic master problem and return statistics to it. A converging and scalable iterative methodology is implemented, providing evidence that significantly lower cost production plans are achievable in a computationally tractable manner.Yayın Channel modeling and characterization for VLC-based medical body sensor networks: trends and challenges(IEEE, 2021-11-15) Dönmez, Barış; Mitra, Rangeet; Miramirkhani, FarshadOptical Wireless Communication (OWC) refers to transmission in unguided propagation media through the use of optical carriers, i.e., visible, Infrared (IR), and Ultraviolet (UV) bands. In this paper, we focus on indoor Visible Light Communication (VLC)-based Medical Body Sensor Networks (MBSNs) which allow the Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) to communicate between on-body sensors/subdermal implants and on-body central hubs/monitoring devices while also serving as a luminaire. Since the Quality-of-Service (QoS) of the communication systems depends heavily on realistic channel modeling and characterization, this paper aims at presenting an up-to-date survey of works on channel modeling activities for MBSNs. The first part reviews existing IR-based MBSNs channel models based on which VLC channel models are derived. The second part of this review provides details on existing VLC-based MBSNs channel models according to the mobility of the MBSNs on the patient’s body. We also present a realistic channel modeling approach called site-specific ray tracing that considers the skin tissue for the MBSNs channel modeling for realistic hospital scenarios.Yayın Enabling 5G indoor services for residential environment using VLC technology(Elsevier B.V., 2022-03-10) Miramirkhani, Farshad; Karbalayghareh, Mehdi; Zeydan, Engin; Mitra, RangeetVisible light communication (VLC) has emerged as a viable complement to traditional radio frequency (RF) based systems and as an enabler for high data rate communications for beyond-5G (B5G) indoor communication systems. In particular, the emergence of new B5G-based applications with quality of service (QoS) requirements and massive connectivity has recently led to research on the required service-levels and the development of improved physical (PHY) layer methods. As part of recent VLC standards development activities, the IEEE has formed the 802.11bb “Light Communications (LC) for Wireless Local Area Networking” standardization group. This paper investigates the network requirements of 5G indoor services such as virtual reality (VR) and high-definition (HD) video for residential environments using VLC. In this paper, we consider such typical VLC scenarios with additional impairments such as light-emitting diode (LED) nonlinearity and imperfect channel feedback, and propose hyperparameter-free mitigation techniques using Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS) methods. In this context, we also propose using a direct current biased optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (DCO-OFDM)-based adaptive VLC transmission method that uses precomputed bit error rate (BER) expressions for these RKHS-based detection methods and performs adaptive BER-based modulation-order switching. Simulations of channel impulse responses (CIRs) show that the adaptive transmission method provides significantly improved error rate performance, which makes it promising for high data rate VLC-based 5G indoor services.
