This will cause all kinds of existing and some new security problems in the operation of the integrated network. A complete protection based on recovery is proposed in the paper. It uses the public-key algorithm to authorize and private-key algorithm to encrypt the communicating data. This solution can provide the system with reliable security, and avoid Denial of Service (DoS) of the user. This solution has been proposed lately, and we should further identify the correct action of all the layers and figure out how to react when a legal node is framed by multiple malicious nodes.展开更多

The terrestrial relays act as the supplement of traditional small cells and cooperatively provide seamless coverage for users in the densely populated areas.To deal with the dynamic satellite backhaul links and backhaul capacity caused by the satellite mobility, severe co-channel interference in both satellite backhaul links and user links introduced by spectrum sharing,and the difference demands of users as well as heterogeneous characteristics of terrestrial backhaul and satellite backhaul, we propose a joint user association and satellite selection scheme to maximize the total sum rate. The optimization problem is formulated via jointly considering the influence of dynamic backhaul links, individual requirements and targeted interference management strategies, which is decomposed into two subproblems: user association and satellite selection. The user association is formulated as a nonconvex optimization problem, and solved through a low-complexity heuristic scheme to find the most suitable access point serving each user. Then, the satellite selection is resolved based on the cooperation among terrestrial relays to maximize the total backhaul capacity with the minimum date rate constraints. Finally,simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in terms of total sum rate and power efficiency of TRs' backhaul.展开更多

Given the constantly changing and dynamic characteristics of air and space networks, along with the sheer number and complexity of access nodes involved, the process of rapid networking presents substantial challenges. In order to achieve rapid and dynamic networking of air-space-ground integrated networks, this paper focuses on the study of methods for large-scale nodes to randomly access satellites. This paper utilizes a cross-layer design methodology to enhance the access success probability by jointly optimizing the physical layer and medium access control(MAC) layer aspects. Load statistics priority random access(LSPRA) technology is proposed.Experiments show that when the number of nodes is greater than 1 000, this method can also ensure stable access performance, providing ideas for the design of air-space-ground integrated network access systems.展开更多

文摘With the rapid growth of connected devices,traditional edge-cloud systems are under overload pressure.Using mobile edge computing(MEC)to assist unmanned aerial vehicles(UAVs)as low altitude platform stations(LAPS)for communication and computation to build air-ground integrated networks(AGINs)offers a promising solution for seamless network coverage of remote internet of things(IoT)devices in the future.To address the performance demands of future mobile devices(MDs),we proposed an MEC-assisted AGIN system.The goal is to minimize the long-term computational overhead of MDs by jointly optimizing transmission power,flight trajecto-ries,resource allocation,and offloading ratios,while utilizing non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA)to improve device connectivity of large-scale MDs and spectral efficiency.We first designed an adaptive clustering scheme based on K-Means to cluster MDs and established commu-nication links,improving efficiency and load balancing.Then,considering system dynamics,we introduced a partial computation offloading algorithm based on multi-agent deep deterministic pol-icy gradient(MADDPG),modeling the multi-UAV computation offloading problem as a Markov decision process(MDP).This algorithm optimizes resource allocation through centralized training and distributed execution,reducing computational overhead.Simulation results show that the pro-posed algorithm not only converges stably but also outperforms other benchmark algorithms in han-dling complex scenarios with multiple devices.

文摘In this paper,we propose a joint power and frequency allocation algorithm considering interference protection in the integrated satellite and terrestrial network(ISTN).We efficiently utilize spectrum resources by allowing user equipment(UE)of terrestrial networks to share frequencies with satellite networks.In order to protect the satellite terminal(ST),the base station(BS)needs to control the transmit power and frequency resources of the UE.The optimization problem involves maximizing the achievable throughput while satisfying the interference protection constraints of the ST and the quality of service(QoS)of the UE.However,this problem is highly nonconvex,and we decompose it into power allocation and frequency resource scheduling subproblems.In the power allocation subproblem,we propose a power allocation algorithm based on interference probability(PAIP)to address channel uncertainty.We obtain the suboptimal power allocation solution through iterative optimization.In the frequency resource scheduling subproblem,we develop a heuristic algorithm to handle the non-convexity of the problem.The simulation results show that the combination of power allocation and frequency resource scheduling algorithms can improve spectrum utilization.

文摘Inferior crude oil and fuel oil upgrading lead to escalating increase of hydrogen consumption in refineries.It is imperative to reduce the hydrogen consumption for energy-saving operations of refineries.An integration strategy of hydrogen network and an operational optimization model of hydrotreating(HDT)units are proposed based on the characteristics of reaction kinetics of HDT units.By solving the proposed model,the operating conditions of HDT units are optimized,and the parameters of hydrogen sinks are determined by coupling hydrodesulfurization(HDS),hydrodenitrification(HDN)and aromatic hydrogenation(HDA)kinetics.An example case of a refinery with annual processing capacity of eight million tons is adopted to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed optimization strategies and the model.Results show that HDS,HDN and HDA reactions are the major source of hydrogen consumption in the refinery.The total hydrogen consumption can be reduced by 18.9%by applying conventional hydrogen network optimization model.When the hydrogen network is optimized after the operational optimization of HDT units is performed,the hydrogen consumption is reduced by28.2%.When the benefit of the fuel gas recovery is further considered,the total annual cost of hydrogen network can be reduced by 3.21×10~7CNY·a^(-1),decreased by 11.9%.Therefore,the operational optimization of the HDT units in refineries should be imposed to determine the parameters of hydrogen sinks base on the characteristics of reaction kinetics of the hydrogenation processes before the optimization of the hydrogen network is performed through the source-sink matching methods.

文摘In this paper, we investigate a cooperation mechanism for satellite-terrestrial integrated networks. The terrestrial relays act as the supplement of traditional small cells and cooperatively provide seamless coverage for users in the densely populated areas.To deal with the dynamic satellite backhaul links and backhaul capacity caused by the satellite mobility, severe co-channel interference in both satellite backhaul links and user links introduced by spectrum sharing,and the difference demands of users as well as heterogeneous characteristics of terrestrial backhaul and satellite backhaul, we propose a joint user association and satellite selection scheme to maximize the total sum rate. The optimization problem is formulated via jointly considering the influence of dynamic backhaul links, individual requirements and targeted interference management strategies, which is decomposed into two subproblems: user association and satellite selection. The user association is formulated as a nonconvex optimization problem, and solved through a low-complexity heuristic scheme to find the most suitable access point serving each user. Then, the satellite selection is resolved based on the cooperation among terrestrial relays to maximize the total backhaul capacity with the minimum date rate constraints. Finally,simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme in terms of total sum rate and power efficiency of TRs' backhaul.

文摘In today's world where everything is interconnected, air-space-ground integrated networks have become a current research hotspot due to their characteristics of high, long and wide area coverage. Given the constantly changing and dynamic characteristics of air and space networks, along with the sheer number and complexity of access nodes involved, the process of rapid networking presents substantial challenges. In order to achieve rapid and dynamic networking of air-space-ground integrated networks, this paper focuses on the study of methods for large-scale nodes to randomly access satellites. This paper utilizes a cross-layer design methodology to enhance the access success probability by jointly optimizing the physical layer and medium access control(MAC) layer aspects. Load statistics priority random access(LSPRA) technology is proposed.Experiments show that when the number of nodes is greater than 1 000, this method can also ensure stable access performance, providing ideas for the design of air-space-ground integrated network access systems.
