文摘Orbital angular momentum(OAM)can achieve multifold increase of spectrum efficiency,but the hollow divergence characteristic and Line-of-Sight(LoS)path requirement impose the crucial challenges for vortex wave communications.For air-to-ground vortex wave communications,where there exists the LoS path,this paper proposes a multi-user cooperative receive(MUCR)scheme to break through the communication distance limitation caused by the characteristic of vortex wave hollow divergence.In particular,we derive the optimal radial position corresponding to the maximum intensity,which is used to adjust the waist radius.Based on the waist radius and energy ring,the cooperative ground users having the minimum angular square difference are selected.Also,the signal compensation scheme is proposed to decompose OAM signals in air-to-ground vortex wave communications.Simulation results are presented to verify the superiority of our proposed MUCR scheme.

文摘Flexible lander,composed of multiple nodes connected by flexible material,can reducethe bouncing and overturning during the asteroid landing.To satisfy the complex constraints inthe node cooperation of the flexible landing,an intelligent cooperative guidance method is pro-posed.The method consists of a double-layer cooperative guidance structure,a guidance parameterdetermination approach,and an action priority strategy.The double-layer contains a basic guid-ance used to satisfy the terminal state constraints,and a compensatory guidance used to satisfythe lander's attitude constraint.For the compensatory guidance,the parameters are determinedby multi-agent system,which are trained according to the performance index of flexible landing tra-jectories.The action priority strategy is used to reduce the detrimental effect of parameter inconsis-tency on the node cooperation.The simulation of flexible landing shows that the cooperativeguidance method is effective in improving the landing accuracy while satisfying the constraints.Meanwhile,the method is robust to the disturbance in the navigation and control.

文摘A centralized-distributed scheduling strategy for distribution networks based on multi-temporal and hierarchical cooperative game is proposed to address the issues of difficult operation control and energy optimization interaction in distribution network transformer areas,as well as the problem of significant photovoltaic curtailment due to the inability to consume photovoltaic power locally.A scheduling architecture combiningmulti-temporal scales with a three-level decision-making hierarchy is established:the overall approach adopts a centralized-distributed method,analyzing the operational characteristics and interaction relationships of the distribution network center layer,cluster layer,and transformer area layer,providing a“spatial foundation”for subsequent optimization.The optimization process is divided into two stages on the temporal scale:in the first stage,based on forecasted electricity load and demand response characteristics,time-of-use electricity prices are utilized to formulate day-ahead optimization strategies;in the second stage,based on the charging and discharging characteristics of energy storage vehicles and multi-agent cooperative game relationships,rolling electricity prices and optimal interactive energy solutions are determined among clusters and transformer areas using the Nash bargaining theory.Finally,a distributed optimization algorithm using the bisection method is employed to solve the constructed model.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed optimization strategy can facilitate photovoltaic consumption in the distribution network and enhance grid economy.

文摘With the rapid development of renewable energy,the Microgrid Coalition(MGC)has become an important approach to improving energy utilization efficiency and economic performance.To address the operational optimization problem inmulti-microgrid cooperation,a cooperative game strategy based on the Nash bargainingmodel is proposed,aiming to enable collaboration among microgrids to maximize overall benefits while considering energy trading and cost optimization.First,each microgrid is regarded as a game participant,and a multi-microgrid cooperative game model based on Nash bargaining theory is constructed,targeting the minimization of total operational cost under constraints such as power balance and energy storage limits.Second,the Nash bargaining solution is introduced as the benefit allocation scheme to ensure individual rationality and coalition stability.Finally,theAlternating Direction Method of Multipliers(ADMM)is employed to decompose the centralized optimization problem into distributed subproblems for iterative solution,thereby reducing communication burden and protecting privacy.Case studies reveal that the operational costs of the threemicrogrids are reduced by 26.28%,19.00%,and 17.19%,respectively,and the overall renewable energy consumption rate is improved by approximately 66.11%.

文摘With the rapid development of medical data sharing,issues of privacy and ownership have become prominent,which have limited the scale of data sharing.To address the above challenges,we propose a blockchainbased data-sharing framework to ensure data security and encourage data owners to actively participate in sharing.We introduce a reliable attribute-based searchable encryption scheme that enables fine-grained access control of encrypted data and ensures secure and efficient data sharing.The revenue distribution model is constructed based on Shapley value to motivate participants.Additionally,by integrating the smart contract technology of blockchain,the search operation and incentive mechanism are automatically executed.Through revenue distribution analysis,the incentive effect and rationality of the proposed scheme are verified.Performance evaluation shows that,compared with traditional data-sharing models,our proposed framework not only meets data security requirements but also incentivizes more participants to actively participate in data sharing.

文摘This paper proposes a mixed game with finitely many leaders and follower populations.In such a game,two types of equilibria are defined.First,a Nash equilibrium is introduced for the scenario in which leaders and follower populations are in perfect competition,each maximizing its own payoff.Second,a cooperative equilibrium is proposed for the case where leaders and follower populations,respectively,form coalitions and cooperate.Moreover,the existence of both Nash and cooperative equilibria is proved under the condition that the payoff functions are continuous and quasi-concave.Finally,we demonstrate the generic stability of cooperative equilibria in mixed games.More concretely,in the sense of Baire category,the cooperative equilibria in most mixed games are stable under perturbations of the payoff functions.In short,this paper presents two main contributions.On the one hand,we provide a novel mixed-game framework,which differs from both classical leader-follower games and leader-follower population games.On the other hand,the Nash and cooperative equilibria in our mixed games are distinct from those in existing leader-follower population games.The results are further illustrated with examples.
