Interference mitigation in intentional jammers aided non-uniform heterogeneous cellular networks.

Coverage and capacity are optimized in fifth generation (5G) networks by small base station (SBS) distribution in the coverage realm of macro base station (MBS). However, system performance is significantly reduced by inter-cell interference (ICI) because of the orthogonal frequency division multiple access assumption. In addition to ICI, this work considers intentional jammers' interference (IJI) due to the presence of jammers. These Jammers try to inject undesirable energies into the legitimate communication band, which significantly degrade uplink (UL) signal-to-interference ratio (SIR). To reduce ICI and IJI, in this work, we employ SBS muting, where the SBSs near MBS are switched off. To further mitigate ICI and IJI, we use one of the effective interference management schemes a.k.a reverse frequency allocation (RFA). We presume that due to mitigation in ICI and IJI, the UL coverage performance of the proposed network model can be further improved.

Unusual Driver Behavior Detection in Videos Using Deep Learning Models.

Anomalous driving behavior detection is becoming more popular since it is vital in ensuring the safety of drivers and passengers in vehicles. Road accidents happen for various reasons, including health, mental stress, and fatigue. It is critical to monitor abnormal driving behaviors in real time to improve driving safety, raise driver awareness of their driving patterns, and minimize future road accidents. Many symptoms appear to show this condition in the driver, such as facial expressions or abnormal actions. The abnormal activity was among the most common causes of road accidents, accounting for nearly 20% of all accidents, according to international data on accident causes. To avoid serious consequences, abnormal driving behaviors must be identified and avoided. As it is difficult to monitor anyone continuously, automated detection of this condition is more effective and quicker. To increase drivers' recognition of their driving behaviors and prevent potential accidents, a precise monitoring approach that detects abnormal driving behaviors and identifies abnormal driving behaviors is required. The most common activities performed by the driver while driving is drinking, eating, smoking, and calling. These types of driver activities are considered in this work, along with normal driving. This study proposed deep learning-based detection models for recognizing abnormal driver actions. This system is trained and tested using a newly created dataset, including five classes. The main classes include Driver-smoking, Driver-eating, Driver-drinking, Driver-calling, and Driver-normal. For the analysis of results, pre-trained and fine-tuned CNN models are considered. The proposed CNN-based model and pre-trained models ResNet101, VGG-16, VGG-19, and Inception-v3 are used. The results are compared by using the performance measures. The results are obtained 89%, 93%, 93%, 94% for pre-trained models and 95% by using the proposed CNN-based model. Our analysis and results revealed that our proposed CNN base model performed well and could effectively classify the driver's abnormal behavior.
