O projeto de sistemas de comunicações móveis requer o conhecimento do ambiente em que será implementado. Para tanto, busca-se a exatidão na predição de propagação do sinal através do uso de modelos de predição. O presente trabalho propõe um modelo empírico para a estimativa da intensidade de sinal recebida em ambientes indoor, e que apresentam mais de uma fonte transmissora, utilizando Sistema de Antenas Distribuídas (DAS). O método apresenta uma generalização para o caso de múltiplas fontes, também chamado multifontes, e como caso particular com apenas uma fonte. A modelagem é feita através do uso de radiais partindo de cada transmissor, com o intuito de considerar a variabilidade do sinal em ambientes indoor. Estas várias perturbações no sinal, que causam desvanecimento rápido são caracterizadas através das distribuições estatísticas de desvanecimento. As mais utilizadas como a de Rayleigh, Rice e Nakagami são apresentadas para caracterização do canal, além dessas são calculadas as distribuições recentemente desenvolvidas, de Kappa-mi e Eta-mi. Para a validação do modelo realizaram-se campanhas de medições em um shopping center, que possui um DAS, com o teste em dois ambientes distintos, um supermercado e uma praça de alimentação. As simulações são realizadas no software MATLAB® e o desempenho dos resultados avaliados através do cálculo dos erros absoluto, desvio padrão e erro rms.

Esta dissertação consiste no projeto e implementação parcial de um sistema integrado de monitoramento da ave Harpia (Harpia harpyja), espécie encontrada na Amazônia, Cerrado e Mata Atlântica. O sistema de monitoramento é estruturado em três etapas: coleta, armazenamento e transmissão de dados. A primeira etapa consiste na coleta de dados a partir de sensores, podendo detectar a presença de pássaros no ninho, também o sistema conta com o auxílio de uma câmera responsável pela captura de vídeo e áudio. A segunda etapa destina-se ao pré-processamento e armazenamento de todas as informações coletadas. A terceira etapa é responsável pela transmissão dos dados através de satélite, utilizando o Sistema Brasileiro de Coleta de Dados Ambientais (SBCDA). Além disso, foi realizado o desenvolvimento de um protótipo utilizado para o monitoramento. Técnicas de sistemas embarcados são expostas para o leitor e o processo de detecção desta espécie é avaliado.

In this article, the authors investigate, from an interdisciplinary perspective, possible ethical implications of the presence of ubiquitous computing systems in human perception/action. The term ubiquitous computing is used to characterize information-processing capacity from computers that are available everywhere and all the time, integrated into everyday objects and activities. The contrast in approach to aspects of ubiquitous computing between traditional considerations of ethical issues and the Ecological Philosophy view concerning its possible consequences in the context of perception/action are the underlying themes of this paper. The focus is on an analysis of how the generalized dissemination of microprocessors in embedded systems, commanded by a ubiquitous computing system, can affect the behaviour of people considered as embodied embedded agents.

The objective of this paper is show the development of an Eletronic Control Unit (ECU) for Baja-SAE vehicles from its requirements to final implementation. An ECU for Baja-SAE vehicles is made of electric and electronic circuits (appropriated to the hostile situations of an off-road competition) able to make important measurements for the running or stand-by vehicle performance. For this development, some concepts were studied: embedded electronics concepts (mainly microcontrollers and data acquisition circuits) and sensoring. Both the studies were made considering the off-road environment. After these initial studies, the elaboration of the basics hardware and software (under simulations) has begun, and this elaboration objectives maximum performance and low implementation cost. After the theorical studies, basic definition of the hardware and software’s architectures and simulations, the printed circuit boards (PCB) were made, as exhaustive tests in these boards for debugging and verify if the boards work well. Once the system was tested in the university, it ran into a regional Southeast competition in 2010, that definitely proved the efficiency of the whole system

This paper describes a new methodology adopted for urban traffic stream optimization. By using Petri net analysis as fitness function of a Genetic Algorithm, an entire urban road network is controlled in real time. With the advent of new technologies that have been published, particularly focusing on communications among vehicles and roads infrastructures, we consider that vehicles can provide their positions and their destinations to a central server so that it is able to calculate the best route for one of them. Our tests concentrate on comparisons between the proposed approach and other algorithms that are currently used for the same purpose, being possible to conclude that our algorithm optimizes traffic in a relevant manner.

Wireless networks are widely deployed and have many uses, for example in critical embedded systems. The applications of this kind of network meets the common needs of most embedded systems and addressing the particularities of each scenario, such as limitations of computing resources and energy supply. Problems such as denial of service attacks are common place and cause great inconvenience. Thus, this study presents simulations of denial of service attacks on 802.11 wireless networks using the network simulator OMNeT++. Furthermore, we present an approach to mitigate such attack, obtaining significant results for improving wireless networks.

Synchronous telecommunication networks, distributed control systems and integrated circuits have its accuracy of operation dependent on the existence of a reliable time basis signal extracted from the line data stream and acquirable to each node. In this sense, the existence of a sub-network (inside the main network) dedicated to the distribution of the clock signals is crucially important. There are different solutions for the architecture of the time distribution sub-network and choosing one of them depends on cost, precision, reliability and operational security. In this work we expose: (i) the possible time distribution networks and their usual topologies and arrangements. (ii) How parameters of the network nodes can affect the reachability and stability of the synchronous state of a network. (iii) Optimizations methods for synchronous networks which can provide low cost architectures with operational precision, reliability and security. (C) 2011 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.
