The recent advances in the technology of smart devices caused a tremendous increase in wireless traffic in conventional cellular networks, thus leading to overloading the base station, and hence delaying the response to users’ requests. To overcome this, Device to Device (D2D) communication has been proposed recently to alleviate the traffic congestion at the base station (BS) by establishing a direct link between users. However, deciding whether a communication should be performed directly via D2D mode or via the base station is considered one of the challenges of applying such a method. Therefore, a mode selection based model was presented in this paper. The method depends on the probability of a user’s proximity close to 1.0. Furthermore, the proposed method also takes into account the interference with both; other cellular communication and D2D communication. The simulation results showed that a significant reduction in the delay can be achieved when responding to user requests after using the proposed model selection method. The increase in frequency reuse within the cell is considered as the main reason behind this behavior. Also, for a more simplified and less complex model selection method, it is more appropriate to apply the proposed model selection method to only the cell edges.
Promoting reduction of PV temperature plays crucial role in increasing electrical performance. The present work deal with different types of absorber shape for analysing heat transfer phenomena. Serpentine and spiral absorber are using to verify this purpose with different boundary conditions of inlet mass flow rate and inlet temperatures.The recent study was conducted to evaluate the effect of some operating and designing parameters such as solar radiation levels, flow rates, absorber shape and cooling water temperature on the performance of PVT system numerically. Performance of PVT system determined by thermal efficiency, electrical efficiency and the summation of both known as total or PVT efficiency. Solar radiation ranging from 500 W/m 2 to1000 W/m 2 was introduced and at each, flow rates of water ranging from 0.016 kg/s to 0.05 kg/s. The results show that the performance of PVT increases with a flow rate at all radiation levels. Also the spiral flow absorber gives a higher performance than serpentine absorber where the value of of spiral absorber is increased by about 5.2% compared to the value of serpentine absorber, on the other hand, the rate of heat loss ( decreased by about 10%.Increasing initial cooling water temperature degrades electrical efficiency of PVT system.
