For the purpose of facilitating data transmission, AaF relays are utilized to regulate signal communication between sensors and filters. Here, the randomly varying channel parameters are represented by a set of stochastic variables whose occurring probabilities are permitted to exhibit bounded uncertainty. Employing the spherical-radial cubature principle, a local filter under AaF relays is initially constructed. This construction ensures and minimizes an upper bound of the filtering error covariance by designing an appropriate filter gain. Subsequently, the local filters are fused through the application of the covariance intersection fusion rule. Furthermore, the uniform boundedness of the filtering error covariance's upper bound is investigated through establishing certain sufficient conditions. The effectiveness of the proposed CKFF scheme is ultimately validated via a simulation experiment concentrating on a three-phase induction machine.展开更多

By jointly optimizing the link selection strategy, the UAV position, and the reflection coefficient of the IRS, we aim to maximize the long-term average secrecy rate. Specifically, we propose a novel buffer in/out stabilization scheme based on the Lyapunov framework, which transforms the long-term average secrecy rate maximization problem into two per-slot drift-plus-penalty minimization problems with different link selection factors. The hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization-Artificial Fish Swarm Algorithm (PSO-AFSA) is adopted to optimize the UAV position, and the IRS reflection coefficient optimization problem is solved by iterative optimization in which auxiliary variables and standard convex optimization algorithms are introduced. Finally, the delay constraint is set to ensure the timeliness of information packets. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed scheme outperforms the comparison schemes in terms of average secrecy rate. Specifically, the addition of BA improves the average secrecy rate by 1.37 bps/Hz, and the continued optimizations of IRS reflection coefficients and UAV positions improve the average secrecy rate by 2.46 bps/Hz and 3.75 bps/Hz, respectively.展开更多

文摘The rapid evolution of Fifth-Generation(5G)networks and the strategic development of Sixth-Generation(6G)technologies have significantly advanced the implementation of air-ground integrated networks with seamless coverage.Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs),serving as high-mobility aerial platforms,are extensively utilized to enhance coverage in long-distance emergency communication scenarios.The resource-constrained communication environments in emergencies by classifying UAVs into swarm UAVs and relay UAVs as aerial communication nodes is inversitgated.A horizontal deployment strategy for swarm UAVs is formulated through K-means clustering algorithm optimization,while a vertical deployment scheme is established using convex optimization methods.The minimum-path trajectory planning for relay UAVs is optimized via the Particle Swarm Optimization(PSO)algorithm,enhancing communication reliability between UAV swarms and terrestrial base stations.A three-dimensional heterogeneous network architecture is realized by modeling spatial multi-hop relay links.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed joint UAV relay optimization framework outperforms conventional algorithms in both coverage performance and relay capability during video stream transmission,achieving significant improvements in coverage enhancement and relay efficiency.This work provides technical foundations for constructing high-reliability air-ground cooperative systems in emergency communications.

文摘A novel photocatalytic energy transfer-driven radical relay strategy has been introduced for the chemoand regioselective 1,4-difunctionalization of carbon-sulfur double bonds.This represents the first instance of radical-mediated dual-functionalization of X-Y type unsaturated bonds,enabling the synthesis of complex linear molecules with C–O,C–N,and C-S bonds in a single operation.The method surpasses traditional approaches by avoiding the need for thiourea intermediates and the harsh conditions typically associated with them.The developed strategy exemplifies versatility,being applicable to 1,4-oxyamination,1,4-diamination,and 1,4-sulfonamination reactions,and has demonstrated compatibility with over 60 different substrates.The research also elucidates the role of electronic complementarity between radicals and receptors in achieving high selectivity in 1,4-difunctionalization reactions.This study significantly advances the field of bifunctionalization and remote difunctionalization reactions,with profound implications for the development of pharmaceuticals and materials science.
文摘This paper is concerned with design-ing symbol labeling for a low-density parity-check(LDPC)-coded delayed bit-interleaved coded modu-lation(DBICM)scheme in a two-way relay channel(TWRC).We first present some properties of symbol labeling within a phase shift keying(PSK)modula-tion.These properties reduce the candidate labeling search space.Based on this search space,we take DBICM capacity as the cost function and propose a general method for optimizing symbol labeling by em-ploying the differential evolution algorithm.Numeri-cal results show that our labeling obtains a signal-to-noise ratio(SNR)gain up to 0.45 dB with respect to Gray labeling.

文摘In Power Line Communications(PLC),there are regulatory masks that restrict the transmit power spectral density for electromagnetic compatibility reasons,which creates coverage issues despite the not too long distances.Hence,PLC networks often employ repeaters/relays,especially in smart grid neighborhood area networks.Even in broadband indoor PLC systems that offer a notable data rate,relaying may pave the way to new applications like being the backbone for wireless technologies in a cost-effective manner to support the Internet-of-things paradigm.In this paper,we study Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO)PLC systems that incorporate inband full-duplex functionality in relaying networks.We present several MIMO configurations that allow end-to-end half-duplex or full-duplex operations and analyze the achievable performance with state-of-the-art PLC systems.To reach this analysis,we get channel realizations from random network layouts for indoor and outdoor scenarios.We adopt realistic MIMO channel and noise models and consider transmission techniques according to PLC standards.The concepts discussed in this work can be useful in the design of future PLC relay-aided networks for different applications that look for a coverage extension and/or throughput:smart grids with enhanced communications in outdoor scenarios,and“last meter”systems for high-speed connections everywhere in indoor ones.

文摘In this study,a solution based on deep Q network(DQN)is proposed to address the relay selection problem in cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA)systems.DQN is particularly effective in addressing problems within dynamic and complex communication environ-ments.By formulating the relay selection problem as a Markov decision process(MDP),the DQN algorithm employs deep neural networks(DNNs)to learn and make decisions through real-time interactions with the communication environment,aiming to minimize the system’s outage proba-bility.During the learning process,the DQN algorithm progressively acquires channel state infor-mation(CSI)between two nodes,thereby minimizing the system’s outage probability until a sta-ble level is reached.Simulation results show that the proposed method effectively reduces the out-age probability by 82%compared to the two-way relay selection scheme(Two-Way)when the sig-nal-to-noise ratio(SNR)is 30 dB.This study demonstrates the applicability and advantages of the DQN algorithm in cooperative NOMA systems,providing a novel approach to addressing real-time relay selection challenges in dynamic communication environments.

文摘Physical layer security methods based on joint relay and jammer selection(JRJS)have been widely investigated in the study of secure wireless communications.Different from current works on JRJS schemes,which assumed that the global channel state information(CSI)of the eavesdroppers(Eves)was known beforehand,then the optimal relaying and jamming relays were determined.More importantly,the time complexity of selecting optimal jamming relay is O(N^(2)),where N is the maximum number of relays/Eves.In this paper,for the scenario where the source wants to exchange the message with the destination,via relaying scheme due to longer communication distance and limited transmission power,in the presence of multiple Eves,with the assumption of Eves'perfect CSI and average CSI,we propose two kinds of JRJS methods.In particular,the time complexity of finding the optimal jammer can be reduced to O(N).Furthermore,we present a novel JRJS scheme for no CSI of Eves by minimizing the difference between expected signal and interfering signal at the destination.Finally,simulations show that the designed methods are more effective than JRJS and other existing strategies in terms of security performance.

文摘This paper investigates the secure communication between legitimate users in the presence of eavesdroppers, where the Intelligent Reflective Surface-Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (IRS-UAV) and Buffer-Aided (BA) relaying techniques are utilized to enhance secrecy performance. By jointly optimizing the link selection strategy, the UAV position, and the reflection coefficient of the IRS, we aim to maximize the long-term average secrecy rate. Specifically, we propose a novel buffer in/out stabilization scheme based on the Lyapunov framework, which transforms the long-term average secrecy rate maximization problem into two per-slot drift-plus-penalty minimization problems with different link selection factors. The hybrid Particle Swarm Optimization-Artificial Fish Swarm Algorithm (PSO-AFSA) is adopted to optimize the UAV position, and the IRS reflection coefficient optimization problem is solved by iterative optimization in which auxiliary variables and standard convex optimization algorithms are introduced. Finally, the delay constraint is set to ensure the timeliness of information packets. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposed scheme outperforms the comparison schemes in terms of average secrecy rate. Specifically, the addition of BA improves the average secrecy rate by 1.37 bps/Hz, and the continued optimizations of IRS reflection coefficients and UAV positions improve the average secrecy rate by 2.46 bps/Hz and 3.75 bps/Hz, respectively.

文摘Light is one of the most important environmental factors for plant growth and development.In relay cropping systems,crop layouts influence light distribution,affecting light use efficiency(LUE).However,the response of light interception,light conversion,and LUE for relay maize and relay soybean to different crop layouts remains unclear.We aimed to quantify the effect of crop layout on intraspecific and interspecific competition,light interception,light conversion,LUE,and land productivity between relay maize and relay soybean.We conducted a field experiment for four consecutive years from 2017 to 2020 in Sichuan province,China,comparing different crop layouts(bandwidth 2.0 m,row ratio 2:2;bandwidth 2.4 m,row ratio 2:3;bandwidth 2.8 m,row ratio 2:4),with sole maize and sole soybean as controls.The results showed that relay maize in the 2.0 m bandwidth layout had the largest leaf area index and plant biomass,the lowest intraspecific competitive intensity and the highest aggressiveness.Compared to a bandwidth of 2.0 m,a bandwidth of 2.8 m significantly decreased relay maize leaf area index by 11%and plant biomass by 24%,while a 2.4 m bandwidth caused roughly half these reductions.The 2.0 m bandwidth layout also significantly improved crop light interception and LUE compared to sole maize.The light interception,light interception rate,light conversion rate and LUE in relay maize all decreased significantly with increasing bandwidth,but they increased in relay soybean.The increased light transmittance to the lower and middle canopy with increasing bandwidth did not compensate for the loss of relay maize yield caused by increased intraspecific competition.However,it enhanced the yield of relay soybeans.Increasing the bandwidth by 80 cm increased the relay maize intraspecific competition by 580%,and reduced maize yield by 33%,light interception by 12%,and LUE by 18%.In contrast,the relay soybean intraspecific competition was reduced by 64%,and the soybean yield was increased by 26%,light interception by 32%and LUE by 46%.Relay cropping systems with a 2.0 m bandwidth optimize the trade-off between light transmittance and intraspecific competition of relay crops.These systems achieve the highest LUE,group yield and economic benefits,making them a recommended crop layout for the southwest regions of China.Our study offers valuable insights for developing strip relay cropping systems that maximize light utilization and contributes to the theoretical understanding of efficient sunlight use in relay cropping practices.

文摘Reliability is a crucial metric in aerospace engineering.The results of reliability assessments for components like aerospace electromagnetic relays directly impact the development and operational reliability of aerospace engineering systems.Current methods for analyzing the reliability of aerospace electromagnetic relays have limitations,such as neglecting the combined effects of multiple uncertain factors,degradation of key component properties,and the influence of fluctuations in aerospace environments.Additionally,these methods often assume a single-type uncertainty in the manufacturing process,leading to significant deviations between the analysis results and actual measurement results.To address these issues,this study proposes an efficient timedependent reliability analysis method based on the HL-RF algorithm,considering a hybrid of probabilistic and interval uncertainty that accounts for degradation and environmental conditions.The proposed method is applied to the reliability analysis of actual aerospace electromagnetic relay products and compared with traditional methods,demonstrating significant advantages.The proposed method has been applied to the time-dependent reliability analysis of actual aerospace electromagnetic relay products under different environmental conditions.The analysis results exhibit an error margin within 5.12% compared to actual measurement results.Compared to analysis methods solely based on probabilistic uncertainty quantification or interval uncertainty quantification,this method reduces the analysis error by 52% and 67% respectively.When compared to two other state-of-the-art methods that integrate probabilistic and interval uncertainty quantification,the error reduction is 23%.These demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method and validates its effectiveness.The presented approach has the potential to be extended for reliability analysis in other aerospace electromechanical systems.
