The target application for such a scalable transcoder is to provide successful access to the pre-encoded high quality video MPEG-2 from mobile wireless terminals. In the scalable transcoder, besides outputting the MPEG-4 fine granular scalability （FGS） bitstream, both the size of video frames and the bit rate are reduced. And an array processing algorithm of layer interference suppression is used at the receiver which makes the system structure provide different levels of protection to different layers. Furthermore, by considering the important level of scalable bitstream, the different bitstreams can be given different level protection by the system structure and channel coding. With the proposed system, the concurrent large diversity gain characteristic of STBC and alleviation of the frequency-selective fading effect of OFDM can be achieved. The simulation results show that the proposed schemes integrating scalable transcoding can provide a basic quality of video transmission and outperform the conventional single layer transcoding transmitted under the random and bursty error channel conditions.展开更多

A new detection scheme consisting of two steps is proposed for the differential unitary space-time modulation （DUSTM） system. In the first step, the data sequence is estimated by conventional unitary space-time demodulation （DUSTD） and differentially encoded again to produce an initial estimate of the transmitted symbol stream. In the second step, the initial estimate of the symbol stream is utilized to initialize an expectation maximization （EM）-based iterative detector. In each iteration, the most recent detected symbol stream is employed to estimate the channel, which is then used to implement coherent sequence detection to refine the symbol stream. Simulation results show that the proposed detection scheme performs much better than the conventional DUSTD after several iterations.展开更多

文摘The battlefield environment is changing rapidly,and fast and accurate identification of the tactical intention of enemy targets is an important condition for gaining a decision-making advantage.The current Intention Recognition(IR)method for air targets has shortcomings in temporality,interpretability and back-and-forth dependency of intentions.To address these problems,this paper designs a novel air target intention recognition method named STABC-IR,which is based on Bidirectional Gated Recurrent Unit(Bi GRU)and Conditional Random Field(CRF)with Space-Time Attention mechanism(STA).First,the problem of intention recognition of air targets is described and analyzed in detail.Then,a temporal network based on Bi GRU is constructed to achieve the temporal requirement.Subsequently,STA is proposed to focus on the key parts of the features and timing information to meet certain interpretability requirements while strengthening the timing requirements.Finally,an intention transformation network based on CRF is proposed to solve the back-and-forth dependency and transformation problem by jointly modeling the tactical intention of the target at each moment.The experimental results show that the recognition accuracy of the jointly trained STABC-IR model can reach 95.7%,which is higher than other latest intention recognition methods.STABC-IR solves the problem of intention transformation for the first time and considers both temporality and interpretability,which is important for improving the tactical intention recognition capability and has reference value for the construction of command and control auxiliary decision-making system.

文摘With rapid development of air transportation,the airspace structure of the future will need to be flexible and dynamic to accommodate the increase in traffic demand.The corridors-in-the-sky has become a new technology to support the full exploitation and utilization of airspace resources.This paper proposes a method of designing corridor,identifying congestion state,and analyzing the influence of air routes’traffic flow.From this,we have reached a number of conclusions.(1)The congestion periods present the multi-peak"wavy"scattered distributions and the peaks back-end agglomeration characteristics in the whole day.(2)The congestion segments present the structural characteristics of unbalanced coverage and concentrated distribution to the crossing points.The corridors with high congestion level present as an italic"N-shaped"frame,which presents incomplete penetration of short segments.(3)For the temporal and spatial interaction,there are two types of congestion segments,and there are some common congestion periods in different congestion segments of multiple corridors.The high-density air route plays a relatively decisive role in corridor congestion,and the influence of two directions is unbalanced.This research can provide a basis for the dynamic evaluation of China’s airspace resources and corridors construction in the future.
