However, its commercialization faces significant obstacles due to the technical challenges of long-distance microwave Wireless Power Transmission(WPT) from geostationary orbit. Even ground-based kilometer-scale WPT experiments remain difficult because of limited testing infrastructure, high costs, and strict electromagnetic wave regulations. Since the 1975 NASA-Raytheon experiment, which successfully recovered 30 kW of power over 1.55 km, there has been little progress in extending the transmission distance or increasing the retrieved power. This study proposes a cost-effective methodology for conducting long-range WPT experiments in constrained environments by utilizing existing infrastructure. A deep space antenna operating at 2.08 GHz with an output power of 2.3 kW and a gain of 55.3 dBi was used as the transmitter. Two test configurations were implemented: a 1.81 km ground-to-air test using an aerostat to elevate the receiver and a 1.82 km ground-to-ground test using a ladder truck positioned on a plateau. The rectenna consists of a lightweight 3×3 patch antenna array(0.9 m × 0.9 m), accompanied by a steering device and LED indicators to verify power reception. The aerostat-based test achieved a power density of 154.6 mW/m2, which corresponds to approximately 6.2% of the theoretical maximum. The performance gap is primarily attributed to near-field interference, detuning of the patch antenna, rectifier mismatch, and alignment issues. These limitations are expected to be mitigated through improved patch antenna fabrication, a transition from GaN to GaAs rectifiers optimized for lower input power, and the implementation of an automated alignment system. With these enhancements, the recovered power is expected to improve by approximately four to five times. The results demonstrate a practical and scalable framework for long-range WPT experiments under constrained conditions and provide key insights for advancing SBSP technology.展开更多

However, due to the complex intestinal environment and limited pixel resolution of WCE videos, lesions are not easily detectable, and it takes an experienced doctor 1–2 h to analyze a complete WCE video. The use of computer-aided diagnostic methods, assisting or even replacing manual WCE diagnosis, has significant application value. In response to the issue of intestinal lesion detection in WCE videos, this paper proposes a multi-scale feature fusion network model TSD-YOLO based on the YOLO (You Only Look Once) architecture: (I) a Tiny Detection Layer to avoid the loss of shallow feature information for tiny-scale targets;(II) integrating a simple, parameter-free attention module (SimAM) at the neck to better extract local lesion features and fuse features;(III) incorporating a new loss function DIoU (Distance Intersection over Union) to better achieve boundary box regression for target detection. This model was validated using the WCE dataset from Kyushu University Hospital. For the dataset containing 18,000 images, the evaluation metrics of our model for 12 types of lesions, outperformed existing reported results from advanced models on this dataset, and the mAP (mean Average Precision) and precision evaluation metrics improved by 3.7% and 0.9% over the benchmark model.展开更多

文摘This paper studies the problem of jamming decision-making for dynamic multiple communication links in wireless communication networks(WCNs).We propose a novel jamming channel allocation and power decision-making(JCAPD)approach based on multi-agent deep reinforcement learning(MADRL).In high-dynamic and multi-target aviation communication environments,the rapid changes in channels make it difficult for sensors to accurately capture instantaneous channel state information.This poses a challenge to make centralized jamming decisions with single-agent deep reinforcement learning(DRL)approaches.In response,we design a distributed multi-agent decision architecture(DMADA).We formulate multi-jammer resource allocation as a multiagent Markov decision process(MDP)and propose a fingerprint-based double deep Q-Network(FBDDQN)algorithm for solving it.Each jammer functions as an agent that interacts with the environment in this framework.Through the design of a reasonable reward and training mechanism,our approach enables jammers to achieve distributed cooperation,significantly improving the jamming success rate while considering jamming power cost,and reducing the transmission rate of links.Our experimental results show the FBDDQN algorithm is superior to the baseline methods.
文摘In the context of security systems,adequate signal coverage is paramount for the communication between security personnel and the accurate positioning of personnel.Most studies focus on optimizing base station deployment under the assumption of static obstacles,aiming to maximize the perception coverage of wireless RF(Radio Frequency)signals and reduce positioning blind spots.However,in practical security systems,obstacles are subject to change,necessitating the consideration of base station deployment in dynamic environments.Nevertheless,research in this area still needs to be conducted.This paper proposes a Dynamic Indoor Environment Beacon Deployment Algorithm(DIE-BDA)to address this problem.This algorithm considers the dynamic alterations in obstacle locations within the designated area.It determines the requisite number of base stations,the requisite time,and the area’s practical and overall signal coverage rates.The experimental results demonstrate that the algorithm can calculate the deployment strategy in 0.12 s following a change in obstacle positions.Experimental results show that the algorithm in this paper requires 0.12 s to compute the deployment strategy after the positions of obstacles change.With 13 base stations,it achieves an effective coverage rate of 93.5%and an overall coverage rate of 97.75%.The algorithm can rapidly compute a revised deployment strategy in response to changes in obstacle positions within security systems,thereby ensuring the efficacy of signal coverage.

文摘Wireless Power Transmission(WPT)has been widely used to replenish energy for various rechargeable devices.The ElectroMagnetic Radiation(EMR)of WPT has attracted great attention of safety concerns.It is possible for the malicious attacker to launch the EMR attack by capturing multiple wireless chargers.Little work has studied the EMR attack itself.In this paper,we propose a realistic EMR hazard model,which outputs the diminishing marginal hazard with EMR,with adjustable parameters to the target entities.We formulate three EMR attack models,termed Cumulative EMR Attack(CEA),Overall EMR Attack(OEA)and Unsafety EMR Attack(UEA),and propose the performance guaranteed algorithm of EMR attack for each model.We conduct extensive simulations and field experiments on a testbed.The results show that the proposed algorithms can output the near-optimal solution with much less running time than the optimal algorithms.The results of field experiments in a small testbed show that the utilities of CEAA and OEAA are increased by 70.5%and 12.9%than the comparison algorithms,respectively.Moreover,the number of captured chargers of UEAA is 5.9%less than the comparison algorithms.Our simulations also show the designed algorithms can perform better in a large-scale charging network.

文摘As a natural biopolymer material,silk fibroin with unique mechanical properties can be used in the preparation of biocomposite hydrogels for strain sensors.But,the electromechanical properties of bio-composite hydrogel strain sensors are still insufficient,such as the deterioration of electrical signals and low sensitivity,which need to develop a hydrogel with a stable transmission network for electric con-duction.Herein,a silk fibroin biocomposite hydrogel is prepared by incorporating tannic acid and MXene nanosheets into a polyacrylamide and silk fibroin double network.The electromechanical properties of hydrogels are improved by optimizing the proportion of material components.As a result,the double network structure and supramolecular interaction enhance the stretchability of hydrogels(692% fracture strain).The hydrogel also exhibits good biocompatibility and conductivity(0.85 S/m),which shows the application prospect in wearable sensors.The wireless strain sensor assembled by this biocomposite hy-drogel presents good portability and sensing performance,such as high sensitivity(gauge factor=6.04),wide working range(500% strain),and outstanding stability(1000 cycles at 100%strain).The results in-dicate that the hydrogel strain sensor can be used to monitor human body movement.The biocomposite hydrogel is expected to be applied in the field of wearable strain sensors,and this study can provide a new way for the design of flexible electronic materials.
文摘Wireless energy transmission technology through the transmitter will be converted into microwave,laser or electromagnetic field and other energy carriers to realize the transmission of space,and the receiver will be captured back to the energy conversion of electrical energy,the whole process can be completed without physical contact energy transfer.The core mechanism is to build the energy coupling channel of the transmitter-receiver system,and realize the spatial power transmission through electromagnetic field interaction.In the electromagnetic induction coupled transmission system,the industrial frequency alternating current is converted into direct current by rectification and filtering,and then converted into high-frequency alternating current by high-frequency inverter.This current excites the primary side transmitting winding to generate a time-varying magnetic field,and through magnetic coupling in the secondary side receiving winding inductance electromotive force,and ultimately through the high-frequency rectifier and power regulation circuit to the load power supply.The essence of the process is to establish a transceiver double-ended resonant network,through the magnetic field resonance to achieve efficient energy exchange,and its transmission characteristics follow the laws of electromagnetic induction and the circuit resonance principle of double constraints.

文摘Wireless Sensor Networks(WSN)have gained significant attention over recent years due to their extensive applications in various domains such as environmentalmonitoring,healthcare systems,industrial automation,and smart cities.However,such networks are inherently vulnerable to different types of attacks because they operate in open environments with limited resources and constrained communication capabilities.Thepaper addresses challenges related to modeling and analysis of wireless sensor networks and their susceptibility to attacks.Its objective is to create versatile modeling tools capable of detecting attacks against network devices and identifying anomalies caused either by legitimate user errors or malicious activities.A proposed integrated approach for data collection,preprocessing,and analysis in WSN outlines a series of steps applicable throughout both the design phase and operation stage.This ensures effective detection of attacks and anomalies within WSNs.An introduced attackmodel specifies potential types of unauthorized network layer attacks targeting network nodes,transmitted data,and services offered by the WSN.Furthermore,a graph-based analytical framework was designed to detect attacks by evaluating real-time events from network nodes and determining if an attack is underway.Additionally,a simulation model based on sequences of imperative rules defining behaviors of both regular and compromised nodes is presented.Overall,this technique was experimentally verified using a segment of a WSN embedded in a smart city infrastructure,simulating a wormhole attack.Results demonstrate the viability and practical significance of the technique for enhancing future information security measures.Validation tests confirmed high levels of accuracy and efficiency when applied specifically to detecting wormhole attacks targeting routing protocols in WSNs.Precision and recall rates averaged above the benchmark value of 0.95,thus validating the broad applicability of the proposed models across varied scenarios.
文摘This paper designs a high-frequency stable wireless amplitude modulation(AM)system based on a Pierce circuit.The system utilizes an oscillator and comparator to generate a 20 kHz square wave with an adjustable duty cycle,combined with a 41 MHz carrier wave produced by a passive crystal oscillator Pierce circuit.A 100% modulation index amplitude modulation is achieved through the AD835 multiplier.The modulated signal is amplified by a power amplifier circuit and transmitted wirelessly via the transmitter antenna.Upon reception,the signal undergoes two-stage highfrequency amplification before passing through a Schottky diode envelope detector.The NE5532 shaping circuit then restores the square wave.Experimental results demonstrate reliable 11-meter transmission with carrier frequency deviation<0.75% and demodulation error<1%.
文摘A Wireless Sensor Network(WSN)comprises a series of spatially distributed autonomous devices,each equipped with sophisticated sensors.These sensors play a crucial role in monitoring diverse environmental conditions such as light intensity,air pressure,temperature,humidity,wind,etc.These sensors are generally deployed in harsh and hostile conditions;hence they suffer from different kinds of faults.However,identifying faults in WSN data remains a complex task,as existing fault detection methods,including centralized,distributed,and hybrid approaches,rely on the spatio⁃temporal correlation among sensor nodes.Moreover,existing techniques predominantly leverage classification⁃based machine learning methods to discern the fault state within WSN.In this paper,we propose a regression⁃based bagging method to detect the faults in the network.The proposed bagging method is consisted of GRU(Gated Recurrent Unit)and Prophet model.Bagging allows weak learners to combine efforts to outperform a strong learner,hence it is appropriate to use in WSN.The proposed bagging method was first trained at the base station,then they were deployed at each SN(Sensor Node).Most of the common faults in WSN,such as transient,intermittent and permanent faults,were considered.The validity of the proposed scheme was tested using a trusted online published dataset.Using experimental studies,compared to the latest state⁃of⁃the⁃art machine learning models,the effectiveness of the proposed model is shown for fault detection.Performance evaluation in terms of false positive rate,accuracy,and false alarm rate shows the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.
文摘WCE (Wireless Capsule Endoscopy) is a new technology that combines computer vision and medicine, allowing doctors to visualize the conditions inside the intestines, achieving good diagnostic results. However, due to the complex intestinal environment and limited pixel resolution of WCE videos, lesions are not easily detectable, and it takes an experienced doctor 1–2 h to analyze a complete WCE video. The use of computer-aided diagnostic methods, assisting or even replacing manual WCE diagnosis, has significant application value. In response to the issue of intestinal lesion detection in WCE videos, this paper proposes a multi-scale feature fusion network model TSD-YOLO based on the YOLO (You Only Look Once) architecture: (I) a Tiny Detection Layer to avoid the loss of shallow feature information for tiny-scale targets;(II) integrating a simple, parameter-free attention module (SimAM) at the neck to better extract local lesion features and fuse features;(III) incorporating a new loss function DIoU (Distance Intersection over Union) to better achieve boundary box regression for target detection. This model was validated using the WCE dataset from Kyushu University Hospital. For the dataset containing 18,000 images, the evaluation metrics of our model for 12 types of lesions, outperformed existing reported results from advanced models on this dataset, and the mAP (mean Average Precision) and precision evaluation metrics improved by 3.7% and 0.9% over the benchmark model.
文摘Deep learning-based Joint Source-Channel Coding(JSCC)is a crucial component in semantic communication,and recent research has made significant progress in adapting to different channels.In this paper,we propose a multi-stage progressive technique called Deep learning based Progressive Joint Source-Channel Coding(DP-JSCC).This approach partitions the source into multiple stages and transmits the signals continuously.The receiver gradually enhances the quality of image reconstruction by progressively receiving the signals,offering greater flexibility compared to existing dynamic rate transmission methods.The model adopts a lightweight architectural design,where we introduce an efficient module called the Inverted Shuffle Attention Bottleneck(ISAB)and incorporate self-attention mechanisms in the encoding and decoding process to capture signal correlations and establish long-range dependencies.Additionally,we introduce the Progressive Focus Weight Allocation(PFWA)method to improve the image reconstruction capability in progressive transmission tasks.These design enhance the expressive capacity of the model.Simulation results demonstrate that DP-JSCC can flexibly adjust the transmission rate according to requirements without the need for retraining or deployment,enabling continuous optimization of signals at different rates.Furthermore,compared to stateof-the-art JSCC methods,DP-JSCC exhibits advantages in terms of computational complexity,parameter count,and reconstruction performance.

文摘The physical layer key generation technique provides an efficient method,which utilizes the natural dynamics of wireless channel.However,there are some extremely challenging security scenarios such as static or quasi-static environment,which lead to the low randomness of generated keys.Meanwhile,the coefficients of the static channel may be dropped into the guard space and discarded by the quantization approach,which causes low key generation rate.To tackle these issues,we propose a random coefficient-moving product based wireless key generation scheme(RCMP-WKG),where new random resources with remarkable fluctuations can be obtained by applying random coefficient and by moving product on the legitimate nodes.Furthermore,appropriate quantization approaches are used to increase the key generation rate.Moreover,the security of our proposed scheme is evaluated by analyzing different attacks and the eavesdropper’s mean square error(MSE).The simulation results reveal that the proposed scheme can achieve better performances in key capacity,key inconsistency rate(KIR)and key generation rate(KGR)compared with the prior works in static environment.Besides,the proposed scheme can deteriorate the MSE performance of the eavesdropper and improve the key generation performance of legitimate nodes by controlling the length of the moving product.

文摘The advent of 6G wireless networks promises unprecedented connectivity,supporting ultra-high data rates,low latency,and massive device connectivity.However,these ambitious goals introduce significant challenges,particularly in channel estimation due to complex and dynamic propagation environments.This paper explores the concept of channel knowledge maps(CKMs)as a solution to these challenges.CKMs enable environment-aware communications by providing location-specific channel information,reducing reliance on real-time pilot measurements.We categorize CKM construction techniques into measurement-based,model-based,and hybrid methods,and examine their key applications in integrated sensing and communication(ISAC)systems,beamforming,trajectory optimization of unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs),base station(BS)placement,and resource allocation.Furthermore,we discuss open challenges and propose future research directions to enhance the robustness,accuracy,and scalability of CKM-based systems in the evolving 6G landscape.
