Quality of service optimization for 4G LTE upload and download throughput

10.11591/ijict.v14i3.pp1024-1033
Afrizal Yuhanef , Siska Aulia , Lefenia Indriani
Demand for mobile data services and people’s dependence on 4G LTE networks continue to increase. However, the quality of service (QoS) of this network still requires improvement, especially regarding the effect of QoS on throughput at specific frequencies. The research gap lies in the lack of indepth analysis of the impact of QoS parameters on network performance at frequencies of 2,100 MHz and 2,300 MHz. This study evaluates the effect of QoS parameters, such as delay, jitter, and packet loss, on throughput in 4G LTE networks at both frequencies. The research methodology uses an experimental approach with throughput, delay, jitter, and packet loss measurements in various network conditions. The results showed that delay (17.2174 ms to 37.0322 ms), jitter, and packet loss significantly influence throughput, ranging from 624.5 Kbps to 1,322.4 Kbps. The 2,100 MHz frequency tends to show better performance than 2,300 MHz. This study concludes that optimizing QoS parameters, especially delay and jitter, can significantly improve 4G LTE network performance. These findings provide practical contributions for mobile operators in improving network quality and customer satisfaction and open opportunities for further research on other frequencies or newer network technologies.

10.11591/ijict.v14i3.pp1126-1135
D. B. Shanmugam , J. Dhilipan
Sedentary behavior has become a pressing global public health issue. This study introduces an innovative method for monitoring and addressing posture changes during inactivity, offering real-time feedback to individuals. Unlike our prior research, which focused on post-analysis, this approach emphasizes real-time monitoring of upper body posture, including hands, shoulders, and head positioning. Image capture techniques document sedentary postures, followed by preprocessing with bandpass filters and morphological operations such as dilation, erosion, and opening to enhance image quality. Texture feature extraction is employed for comprehensive analysis, and deep neural networks (DNN) are used for precise predictions. A key innovation is a feedback system that alerts individuals through an alarm, enabling immediate posture adjustments. Implemented in MATLAB, the method achieved accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity rates of 98.2%, 90.7%, and 99.2%, respectively. Comparative analysis with established methods, including support vector machine (SVM), random forest, and K-nearest neighbors (KNN), demonstrate the superiority of our approach in accuracy and performance metrics. This real-time intervention strategy has the potential to mitigate the adverse effects of sedentary behavior, reducing risks associated with cardiovascular and musculoskeletal diseases. By providing immediate corrective feedback, the proposed system addresses a critical gap in sedentary behavior research and offers a practical solution for improving public health outcomes.

Power systems with standalone properties like remote unit telecommunication network requires high negative DC supply voltage. In such remote places, solar photovoltaic (PV) are used to generate power. Maximum power point tracking techniques (MPPT) gives unregulated voltage from solar panel. This unregulated voltage is converted into regulated voltage by providing proper pulse width modulation (PWM) signal to self-lift cuk converter (SLCC). In comparison with classic cuk converter, SLCC reduces load voltage and load current ripples. This paper focuses on state space controller design and implementation of SLCC used in MPPT based PV system. The switching pulse of SLCC can be generated by perturb and observe (P&O), incremental conductance (IC) and also using fuzzy control. The simulation of SLCC has been performed using MATLAB/Simulink and its specifications in time domain has been compared.

This article critically examines the legal and regulatory challenges posed by artificial intelligence (AI) within the European Union’s (EU) digital economy, focusing on the recently adopted EU Ai Act (Regulation 2024/1689). While previous studies have addressed AI's ethical and theoretical dimensions, this research fills a gap by analyzing the Act’s practical application across its temporal, personal, material, and territorial scopes. The study adopts a qualitative legal methodology, integrating doctrinal interpretation, comparative analysis, and systemic review of EU and international legal instruments. Key findings reveal that the EU AI Act establishes a pioneering risk-based regulatory framework, distinguishing itself through strong safeguards for fundamental rights, transparency, and human oversight. However, critical limitations remain, including ambiguous high-risk classifications, reliance on provider self-assessment, and exemptions for national security that may undermine human rights protections. The article compares the EU approach with those of the United States and China, illustrating divergent models of AI regulation and their global implications. It argues that while the EU AI Act sets an ambitious precedent, its success depends on effective enforcement, stakeholder compliance, and international regulatory convergence. By addressing these challenges, the EU can shape a globally influential framework for ethical and responsible AI deployment. This study contributes to the evolving academic and policy debate on AI governance by offering practical insights and recommendations for future research and legal development.

People with symptoms like diabetes, high BP, and high cholesterol are at an increased risk for heart disease and stroke as they get older. To mitigate this threat, predictive fashions leveraging machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI) have emerged as a precious gear; however, heart disease prediction is a complicated task, and diagnosis outcomes are hardly ever accurate. Currently, the existing ML tech says it is necessary to have data in certain centralized locations to detect heart disease, as data can be found centrally and is easily accessible. This review introduces federated learning (FL) to answer data privacy challenges in heart disease prediction. FL, a collaborative technique pioneered by Google, trains algorithms across independent sessions using local datasets. This paper investigates recent ML methods and databases for predicting cardiovascular disease (heart attack). Previous research explores algorithms like region-based convolutional neural network (RCNN), convolutional neural network (CNN), and federated logistic regressions (FLRs) for heart and other disease prediction. FL allows the training of a collaborative model while keeping patient info spread out among various sites, ensuring privacy and security. This paper explores the efficacy of FL, a collaborative technique, in enhancing the accuracy of cardiovascular disease (CVD) prediction models while preserving data privacy across distributed datasets.

This work quantifies the severity and likelihood of cyberattacks using complex network modelling. A dataset from common attack pattern enumerations and classifications (CAPEC) is collected and formalized as nodes and edges aiming at creating a network model. In this model, each attack pattern is represented as a node, and an edge is created between two nodes when there is a relation between them. The dataset includes 559 attack patterns and 1921 relations among them. Network metrics are used to perform the analysis on the network level and node level. Moreover, a rank of the CAPECs based on a complex network perspective is generated. This rank is compared with the CAPEC ranking system and deeply discussed based on cybersecurity perspective. The findings show interesting facts about the likelihood and severity of attacks. It is found that the network perspective should be given attention by the CAPEC ranking system. Finally, the results of this work can be of high interest to security architects.

Any country's economic progress is heavily reliant on its power infrastructure, network, and availability, as energy has become an essential component of daily living in today's globe. Electricity's distinctive quality is that it cannot be stored in huge quantities, which explains why global demand for home and commercial electricity has grown at an astonishing rate. On the other hand, electricity costs have varied in recent years, and there is insufficient electricity output to meet global and local demand. The solution is a series of case studies designed to forecast future residential and commercial electricity demand so that power producers, transformers, distributors, and suppliers may efficiently plan and encourage energy savings for consumers. However, load prognosticasting has been one of the most difficult issues confronting the energy business since the inception of electricity. This study covers a new one–dimensional approach algorithm that is essential for the creation of a short–term load prognosticasting module for distribution system design and operation. It has numerous operations, including energy purchase, generation, and infrastructure construction. We have numerous time series forecasting methods of which autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) outperforms the others. The auto–regressive integrated moving average model, or ARIMA, outperforms all other techniques for load forecasting.
