This points out that the distribution and scattering properties of scattering centers are the prime reasons which cause the variation of muhipath effects, and all the changes of position, motion and attitude of the target can influence the muhipath effects. By building of muhipath model for multi-scattering centers for target, the analysis above is verified and a new method of elevation estimation for low-angle target is presented. The new method uses canceling vectors obtained by searching to cancel reflected waves in echoes and reduce the influence of reflected com- ponents, which can improve the accuracy of elevation estimation of low-angle target and the performance of low- angle tracking in meter-wave radar. Experimental results verify the availability of the method.展开更多

In precision applications, multipath errors dominate the total error because observables, which are used to estimate carrier-phase integer ambiguity, are not always subject to a Gaussian distribution when dualfrequency ambiguity estimation methods are used in the presence of multipath. As it has been shown that ranging observables obey a Gaussian mixture distribution, this study proposes improvements to the accuracy of estimation based on multipath mitigation founded on the Gaussian mixture model. To this end, such a model is created for integer ambiguity resolution in the presence of multipath, using which the theoretical error in dual-frequency ambiguity estimation is derived.Expectation Maximization(EM), which aids dual-frequency ambiguity estimation, is subsequently proposed to reduce the effect of multipath errors. Finally, two experimental scenarios are implemented to test the performance of the proposed method. The results show that EM-aided dualfrequency ambiguity estimation reduces the range error to approximately 20% in comparison with simple dual-frequency ambiguity estimation. Therefore the proposed technique is effective for multipath mitigation in RF relative measurement.展开更多

This paper firstly describes the intrinsic behavior of the transfer function of these basic topologies. Secondly, the channel capacities of the three topologies are compared to check if there is a more favorable topology. Many deterministic modeling methods have been developed to compute the transfer function of power line networks but the given examples in the studies correspond only to the derivation topology with branches connected to the direct path between transceivers. Thirdly, this paper evaluates the ability of common modeling methods （multipath and chain matrices） to compute accurately the transfer function of any topology. Modeling the derivation topology with ＂secondary＂ branches and the star topology is shown to be inappropriate with chain matrices based method. Indeed, this method is very sensitive to the uncertainty of the second parameters of the power cables and this induces considerable fading shifts for those topologies. Multipath modeling method produces results agreeing with measurements for any topology.展开更多

Traditional Gaussian mixture model (GMM) does not consider the power information which is important for the channel multipath clustering. In this paper, a normalized power weighted GMM (PGMM) is introduced to model the channel multipath components (MPCs). With MPC power as a weighted factor, the PGMM can fit the MPCs in accordance with the cluster-based channel models. Firstly, expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is employed to optimize the PGMM parameters. Then, to further increase the searching ability of EM and choose the optimal number of components without resort to cross-validation, the variational Bayesian (VB) inference is employed. Finally, 28 GHz indoor channel measurement data is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the PGMM clustering algorithm.展开更多

The multipath fading channel is independent of each other, whose amplitude obeys Rayleigh distribution and the phase obeys uniform distribution. The model of multipath time-varying transmission channel is built. Through the pro-cess of channel model building, the simulation results produced by the channel model verify the effect of the proposed model in the aspect of reducing test data. In a communication system, signal passing through the channel is involved with the process of digital modulation and demodulation. Binary sequence signal is modulated into a complex sequence in the process of modulation before the transmission in the channel, in order to accommodate the wireless channel transmission. With the increase of SNR, BER is overall slightly drops. However there exists violent fluctuation and it presents the random variation of details in the multipath channel. I employ the mathematical model of multipath time-varying channel, i.e. Jakes model to be simulated so as to compare with the AGWN channel in the same situation. Jakes model has the characteristics of the reference chan-nel compared with the AGWN. BER does not change with the increase of SNR significantly and coincides with multipath time-varying channel. The BER considerably decreases with the increase of SNR in the AGWN channel.展开更多

There exist a lot of literatures on QoS routing in WMNs, but the current algorithms have some deficiencies, such as high complexity, poor scalability and flexibility. To solve the problems above, a multipath routing algorithm based on traffic prediction (MRATP) is proposed in WMNs. MRATP consists of three modules including an algo-rithm on multipath routing built, a congestion discovery mechanism based on wavelet-neural network and a load balancing algorithm via multipath. Simulation results show that MRATP has some characteristics, such as better scalability, flexibility and robustness. Compared with the current algorithms, MRATP has higher success ratio, lower end to end delay and overhead. So MRATP can guarantee the end to end QoS of WMNs.展开更多
