In this paper, we consider underwater visible light communication (UVLC) system with M parallel relaying paths where each path has N decode-and-forward (DF) relays. One path (not necessarily the best one) out of M paths ...

Although the family stress model theoretically focuses on the roles of both mothers and fathers as predictors of children’s outcomes, studies generally have focused on mothers. The pandemic has brought additional burdens ...

In this paper, we introduce a method that synergistically combines an analytical pattern generator and a feedback controller frame, which are developed for the purpose of synthesizing dynamic quadrupedal trot-walking ...
