It has been noted that non-response creates problem mostly in all types of surveys and this cannot be eliminated by simply increasing the sample size. Non-response may be non-ignorable or ignorable which depends whether it is correlated with the target variable or not [Little (1982) and Glynn, Laird and Rubin, (1993)]. Non-response is caused when surveying human population hesitates to respond in surveys and this is increased when sensitive issues are discussed in surveys. It has been observed that non-response increases bias in estimates which is main reason of reducing efficiency of the...

This book focuses on the emerging research topic -green (energy efficient) wireless networks- which has drawn huge attention recently from both academia and industry. This topic is highly motivated due to important environmental, financial, and quality-of-experience (QoE) considerations. Specifically, the high energy consumption of the wireless networks manifests in approximately 2% of all CO2 emissions worldwide. This book presents the authors' visions and solutions for deployment of energy efficient (green) heterogeneous wireless communication networks. The book consists of three major...

This brief focuses on radio resource allocation in a heterogeneous wireless medium. It presents radio resource allocation algorithms with decentralized implementation, which support both single-network and multi-homing services. The brief provides a set of cooperative networking algorithms, which rely on the concepts of short-term call traffic load prediction, network cooperation, convex optimization, and decomposition theory. In the proposed solutions, mobile terminals play an active role in the resource allocation operation, instead of their traditional role as passive service recipients in...
