Optimisation of PV Cleaning Practices: Comparison Between Performance Based and Periodic Based Approaches
Published 2018“…Although the biggest costs involved in this technology is the installation/capital costs, the subsequent running costs (although less than traditional sources of energy) such as cleaning and maintenance can increase or decrease the feasibility of these panels. Soiling, which is the deposition of materials (usually dust) that obstruct solar radiation falling on the panel and is one of the major factors of production losses in PV panels, and thus managing it will result in a positive economic and technical impact on PV plant feasibility. …”

Performance Analysis of FSO Communications With Diversity Methods
Published 2016“…By comparing the MIMO and cooperative methods with point receivers, we reach the central result that it is always better, from a diversity gain point of view, to add more apertures to the source and destination rather than adding more relays in their vicinity despite the fact that the fading variance along FSO links decreases with the distance. For receivers that implement aperture averaging, we derive conditions under which MIMO techniques are unconditionally better than cooperative techniques with any network topology.…”
