Wireless networks with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) as airborne base stations have become a promising technology to increase the coverage area of users. When users move at high speed in the coverage area of a UAV network, an efficient handover algorithm is required to maintain the users’ quality of service. On the other hand, the network load should be fairly distributed to avoid crowded stations and stations without service.

This paper presents an efficient algorithm for selecting the target base station in the handover process for mobile users in UAV-based wireless networks. The proposed algorithm satisfies the quality of service required by the users in the coverage of the new base station while reducing the number of unnecessary handovers between the base stations and distributing the load among them fairly.

The simulation results show that the proposed method enhances the Jain's fairness index and spectral efficiency and also, reduces the ping-pong rate.

Originality: 

Due to the increasing demand for developing UAVs in next-generation wireless networks, the proposed method can be used for handover in these networks.

The purpose of this article is lotting the mine hazardous and determining the dangerous zone next to the minefields by means of Remote Sensing and GIS techniques.

In this article four factors are considered such as; Altitude, gradient, The distance from waterway network and soil erosion factor (the result of RUSLE-mode) 7 location map for lotting mine hazardous for under study zone was created by means of fuzzy overlap of gamma operators type 0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.625, 0.75 and 0.875.

The results of the research showed a high correlation between the location map of lotting mine hazardous with different gamma powers (except gamma 1) and height and soil erosion factors in sequence.In the location map resulting from the fuzzy overlap with gamma 1, this high correlation relationship was created with erosion and gradient factors in sequence When the gamma power is equal to 1, most of the areas are introduced as high-risk class, which means that it has been negligent in introducing the lots as high-risk zones. On the contrary, as the value of gamma power decreases, the area of the high-risk class decreases and the area of the high-risk, medium-risk, low-risk, and very low-risk classes increases in sequence. and in fact in introducing the zones as high risk lots is act strictly.

In all the location maps created, low altitude areas and waterways are placed in high-risk and very high-risk classes, which shows that these areas should be prioritized for demining.

The research conducted in military environments has shown that among the soldiers on duty, the most problematic mental disorders are related to antisocial and borderline personality disorders; Therefore, considering the importance and role of schemas in personality disorders, the aim of this study is to investigate the relationship between primary maladaptive schemas and clinical symptoms of borderline personality disorders and antisocial personality in soldiers: network modeling.

The working method of the current research was descriptive-correlation and network modeling. The target community in the current research is the community of soldiers. The sample of the present study was selected according to the available non-random method of 500 people.

The findings showed that considering that the square of the Pearson correlation coefficient indicates the amount of common variance between the questions, considering the limit of 0.5 means that in order to identify a significant relationship between the nodes, at least the common variance of the nodes in question should be equal to 0.25.

Originality:

 The results showed that among the components presented in the initial maladaptive schemas, the components of abandonment/instability and trapped/untransformed self had the highest amount of extroversion index on average. Also, in the syndromes of borderline and antisocial personality disorders, both antisocial and borderline components have an equal amount of extroversion index.

Mindfulness as an intervention approach is suitable for improving job performance, creativity of employees as well as issues related to mental health..
