However, different from that in the 4G LTE system, the cyclic redundancy check(CRC) in polar decoding plays both error correction and error detection roles. Consequently, the false alarm rates(FAR) may not meet the system requirements(FAR<1.52 × 10^(−5)). In this paper, to mitigate the FAR in polar code blind detection, we attach a binary classifier after the polar decoder to further remove the false alarm results and meanwhile retain the correct DCI. This classifier works by tracking the squared Euclidean distance ratio(SEDR) between the received signal and hypothesis. We derive an analytical method to fast compute proper classification threshold that is implementation-friendly in practical use. Combining the well-designed classifier, we show that some very short CRC sequences can even be used to meet the FAR requirements. This consequently reduces the CRC overhead and contributes to the system error performance improvements.展开更多

The time domain signal of every code sequence is collected by the data acquisition card （DAQ）. A shift-averaging technique is applied in the frequency domain for the reason that the local oscillator （LO） in the coherent detection is fix-frequency deviated from the primary source. With the 31-bit simplex code, the signal-to-noise ratio （SNR） has 3.5-dB enhancement with the same single pulse traces, accordant with the theoretical analysis. The frequency fluctuation for simplex codes is 14.01 MHz less than that for a single pulse as to 4-m spatial resolution. The results are believed to be beneficial for the BOTDR performance improvement.展开更多

Furthermore,a new computer search criterion for a linear transformation matrix is also proposed. New search criterion is to minimize the symbol error rate based on OSIC detection. Computer simulations show that the performance of proposed LDCs transmission scheme is better than the original LDCs.展开更多

Thus far, vertical layered space-time codes assumed that perfect estimates of current channel fading conditions are available at the receiver. However, increasing the number of transmit antennas increases the required training interval and reduces the available time in which data may be transmitted before the fading coefficients change.

As the result,cell-to-cell interference(CCI) becomes more serious and hence causes an increase in the raw bit error rate of data stored in the cells.Recently, low-density parity-check(LDPC)codes have appeared to be a promising solution to combat the interference of MLC NAND flash memory. However, the decoding complexity of the sum-product algorithm(SPA) is extremely high. In this paper, to improve the accuracy of the log likelihood ratio(LLR) information of each bit in each NAND flash memory cell, we adopt a non-uniform detection(N-UD) which uses the average maximum mutual information to determine the value of the soft-decision reference voltages.Furthermore, with an aim to reduce the decoding complexity and improve the decoding performance, we propose a modified soft reliabilitybased iterative majority-logic decoding(MSRBI-MLGD) algorithm, which uses a non-uniform quantizer based on power function to decode LDPC codes. Simulation results show that our design can offer a desirable trade-off between the performance and complexity for high-column-weight LDPC-coded MLC NAND flash memory.展开更多

It has been shown that the PSO algorithm incorporating the linear system of the decorrelating detector, which is termed as decorrelating PSO （DPSO）, can significantly improve the bit error rate （BER） and the system capacity. As the code mismatch occurs, the output BER performance is vulnerable to degradation for DPSO. With a blind decorrelating scheme, the proposed blind DPSO （BDPSO） offers more robust capabilities over existing DPSO under code mismatch scenarios.展开更多

Existence of duplicated program codes, called code clone, is one of the main factors that reduces the quality and maintainability of software. If one code fragment contains faults (bugs) and they are copied and modified to other locations, it is necessary to correct all of them. But it is not easy to find all code clones in large and complex software. Much research efforts have been done for code clone detection. There are mainly two methods for code clone detection. One is token-based and the other is tree-based method. Token-based method is fast and requires less resources. However it cannot detect all kinds of code clones. Tree-based method can detect all kinds of code clones, but it is slow and requires much computing resources. In this paper combination of these two methods was proposed to improve the efficiency and accuracy of detecting code clones. Firstly some candidates of code clones will be extracted by token-based method that is fast and lightweight. Then selected candidates will be checked more precisely by using tree-based method that can find all kinds of code clones. The prototype system was developed. This system accepts source code and tokenizes it in the first step. Then token-based method is applied to this token sequence to find candidates of code clones. After extracting several candidates, selected source codes will be converted into abstract syntax tree (AST) for applying tree-based method. Some sample source codes were used to evaluate the proposed method. This evaluation proved the improvement of efficiency and precision of code clones detecting.展开更多

Some theoretical analysis and simulation results are presented. It is shown that the proposed ML algorithm is at least 0.7 dB better than the conventional Matched-Filter (MF) algorithm for uncoded systems, in both non-fading and fading channels. For the consideration of practical application, it is further simplified in complexity. Compared with the original ML algorithm, the simplified ML algorithm can provide significant reduction in complexity with small degradation in performance.展开更多

This algorithm employs an ESPRIT-like method and the singular value decomposition, and the channels between every transmit antenna of every user and every receive antenna of the base station are blindly estimated with a closed-form solution. Based on it, an equivalent Minimum Mean-Squared Error (MMSE) time-domain multiuser detector is derived. Moreover, the proposed scheme exploits the precoding in the transmitter in order to eliminate the constraint of more receive antennas than transmit ones, required by most conventional V-BLAST codec schemes. Computer simulation results demonstrate the validity of this proposed scheme.展开更多

文摘Semantic communication(SemCom)aims to achieve high-fidelity information delivery under low communication consumption by only guaranteeing semantic accuracy.Nevertheless,semantic communication still suffers from unexpected channel volatility and thus developing a re-transmission mechanism(e.g.,hybrid automatic repeat request[HARQ])becomes indispensable.In that regard,instead of discarding previously transmitted information,the incremental knowledge-based HARQ(IK-HARQ)is deemed as a more effective mechanism that could sufficiently utilize the information semantics.However,considering the possible existence of semantic ambiguity in image transmission,a simple bit-level cyclic redundancy check(CRC)might compromise the performance of IK-HARQ.Therefore,there emerges a strong incentive to revolutionize the CRC mechanism,thus more effectively reaping the benefits of both SemCom and HARQ.In this paper,built on top of swin transformer-based joint source-channel coding(JSCC)and IK-HARQ,we propose a semantic image transmission framework SC-TDA-HARQ.In particular,different from the conventional CRC,we introduce a topological data analysis(TDA)-based error detection method,which capably digs out the inner topological and geometric information of images,to capture semantic information and determine the necessity for re-transmission.Extensive numerical results validate the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed SC-TDA-HARQ framework,especially under the limited bandwidth condition,and manifest the superiority of TDA-based error detection method in image transmission.

文摘A way of resolving spreading code mismatches in blind multiuser detection with a particle swarm optimization （PSO） approach is proposed. It has been shown that the PSO algorithm incorporating the linear system of the decorrelating detector, which is termed as decorrelating PSO （DPSO）, can significantly improve the bit error rate （BER） and the system capacity. As the code mismatch occurs, the output BER performance is vulnerable to degradation for DPSO. With a blind decorrelating scheme, the proposed blind DPSO （BDPSO） offers more robust capabilities over existing DPSO under code mismatch scenarios.

文摘The simplified joint channel estimation and symbol detection based on the EM (expectation-maximization) algorithm for space-time block code (STBC) are proposed. By assuming channel to be invariant within only one STBC word and utilizing the orthogonal structure of STBC, the computational complexity and cost of this algorithm are both very low, so it is very suitable to implementation in real systems.
文摘This article proposes the high-speed and high-accuracy code clone detection method based on the combination of tree-based and token-based methods. Existence of duplicated program codes, called code clone, is one of the main factors that reduces the quality and maintainability of software. If one code fragment contains faults (bugs) and they are copied and modified to other locations, it is necessary to correct all of them. But it is not easy to find all code clones in large and complex software. Much research efforts have been done for code clone detection. There are mainly two methods for code clone detection. One is token-based and the other is tree-based method. Token-based method is fast and requires less resources. However it cannot detect all kinds of code clones. Tree-based method can detect all kinds of code clones, but it is slow and requires much computing resources. In this paper combination of these two methods was proposed to improve the efficiency and accuracy of detecting code clones. Firstly some candidates of code clones will be extracted by token-based method that is fast and lightweight. Then selected candidates will be checked more precisely by using tree-based method that can find all kinds of code clones. The prototype system was developed. This system accepts source code and tokenizes it in the first step. Then token-based method is applied to this token sequence to find candidates of code clones. After extracting several candidates, selected source codes will be converted into abstract syntax tree (AST) for applying tree-based method. Some sample source codes were used to evaluate the proposed method. This evaluation proved the improvement of efficiency and precision of code clones detecting.

文摘Data Matrix(DM)codes have been widely used in industrial production.The reading of DM code usually includes positioning and decoding.Accurate positioning is a prerequisite for successful decoding.Traditional image processing methods have poor adaptability to pollution and complex backgrounds.Although deep learning-based methods can automatically extract features,the bounding boxes cannot entirely fit the contour of the code.Further image processing methods are required for precise positioning,which will reduce efficiency.Because of the above problems,a CenterNet-based DM code key point detection network is proposed,which can directly obtain the four key points of the DM code.Compared with the existing methods,the degree of fitness is higher,which is conducive to direct decoding.To further improve the positioning accuracy,an enhanced loss function is designed,including DM code key point heatmap loss,standard DM code projection loss,and polygon Intersection-over-Union(IoU)loss,which is beneficial for the network to learn the spatial geometric characteristics of DM code.The experiment is carried out on the self-made DM code key point detection dataset,including pollution,complex background,small objects,etc.,which uses the Average Precision(AP)of the common object detection metric as the evaluation metric.AP reaches 95.80%,and Frames Per Second(FPS)gets 88.12 on the test set of the proposed dataset,which can achieve real-time performance in practical applications.
文摘In the recent era of software development,reusing software is one of the major activities that is widely used to save time.To reuse software,the copy and paste method is used and this whole process is known as code cloning.This activity leads to problems like difficulty in debugging,increase in time to debug and manage software code.In the literature,various algorithms have been developed to find out the clones but it takes too much time as well as more space to figure out the clones.Unfortunately,most of them are not scalable.This problem has been targeted upon in this paper.In the proposed framework,authors have proposed a new method of identifying clones that takes lesser time to find out clones as compared with many popular code clone detection algorithms.The proposed framework has also addressed one of the key issues in code clone detection i.e.,detection of near-miss(Type-3)and semantic clones(Type-4)with significant accuracy of 95.52%and 92.80%respectively.The present study is divided into two phases,the first method converts any code into an intermediate representation form i.e.,Hashinspired abstract syntax trees.In the second phase,these abstract syntax trees are passed to a novel approach“Similarity-based self-adjusting hash inspired abstract syntax tree”algorithm that helps in knowing the similarity level of codes.The proposed method has shown a lot of improvement over the existing code clones identification methods.
文摘Based on the Maximum-Likelihood (ML) criterion, this paper proposes a novel noncoherent detection algorithm for Orthogonal Multicode (OM) system in Nakagami fading channel. Some theoretical analysis and simulation results are presented. It is shown that the proposed ML algorithm is at least 0.7 dB better than the conventional Matched-Filter (MF) algorithm for uncoded systems, in both non-fading and fading channels. For the consideration of practical application, it is further simplified in complexity. Compared with the original ML algorithm, the simplified ML algorithm can provide significant reduction in complexity with small degradation in performance.
文摘Software systems have been employed in many fields as a means to reduce human efforts;consequently,stakeholders are interested in more updates of their capabilities.Code smells arise as one of the obstacles in the software industry.They are characteristics of software source code that indicate a deeper problem in design.These smells appear not only in the design but also in software implementation.Code smells introduce bugs,affect software maintainability,and lead to higher maintenance costs.Uncovering code smells can be formulated as an optimization problem of finding the best detection rules.Although researchers have recommended different techniques to improve the accuracy of code smell detection,these methods are still unstable and need to be improved.Previous research has sought only to discover a few at a time(three or five types)and did not set rules for detecting their types.Our research improves code smell detection by applying a search-based technique;we use the Whale Optimization Algorithm as a classifier to find ideal detection rules.Applying this algorithm,the Fisher criterion is utilized as a fitness function to maximize the between-class distance over the withinclass variance.The proposed framework adopts if-then detection rules during the software development life cycle.Those rules identify the types for both medium and large projects.Experiments are conducted on five open-source software projects to discover nine smell types that mostly appear in codes.The proposed detection framework has an average of 94.24%precision and 93.4%recall.These accurate values are better than other search-based algorithms of the same field.The proposed framework improves code smell detection,which increases software quality while minimizing maintenance effort,time,and cost.Additionally,the resulting classification rules are analyzed to find the software metrics that differentiate the nine code smells.

文摘Focusing on the space-time coded multiuser mobile communication systems in the frequency-selective fading environment, this paper proposes a Vertical Bell labs LAyered Space-Time (V-BLAST) coded Multicarrier Code-Division Multiple-Access (MC-CDMA) scheme and its blind channel identification algorithm. This algorithm employs an ESPRIT-like method and the singular value decomposition, and the channels between every transmit antenna of every user and every receive antenna of the base station are blindly estimated with a closed-form solution. Based on it, an equivalent Minimum Mean-Squared Error (MMSE) time-domain multiuser detector is derived. Moreover, the proposed scheme exploits the precoding in the transmitter in order to eliminate the constraint of more receive antennas than transmit ones, required by most conventional V-BLAST codec schemes. Computer simulation results demonstrate the validity of this proposed scheme.
