文摘The smart meter communication system has substantial application value for the construction and upgrading of the entire power system.The deployment of the transmitter(Tx)of the smart meter system in the residential scenarios is vexed by the need for more theoretical support.This paper mainly studies the communication channel between the Tx at semibasement and receiver(Rx)at outdoor.The design of an effective communication system relies on an accurate understanding of channel characteristics.Channel measurements and ray-tracing channel modeling are conducted to obtain channel data.The influence of different positions at same semi-basement is studied.Typical channel characteristics are analyzed,such as power delay profile(PDP),power angular profile(PAP),root-mean-square(RMS)delay spread(DS),channel capacity,received power,and path loss.The influence of different semi-basement placements and different floor heights is also compared.Besides,the channel measurements and simulation data fit well,which can illustrate the validity and reliability of the acquired channel data.This paper can provide theoretical support for the design and optimization of smart meter communication systems in semi-basement scenarios.
文摘V2X communication enables vehicles to share real-time traffic and road-condition data,but binding messages to persistent identifiers enables location tracking.Furthermore,since forged reports from malicious vehicles can distort trust decisions and threaten road safety,privacy-preserving trust management is essential.Lu et al.previously presented BARS,an anonymous reputation mechanism founded on blockchain technology to establish a privacy-preserving trust architecture for V2X communication.In this system,reputation certificates without a vehicle identifier ensure anonymity,while two authorities jointly manage certificate issuance and reputation updates.However,the centralized certificate updates introduce scalability limitations,and the authorities can trace vehicle behavioral information,which threatens privacy guarantees.Several subsequent systems derived from BARS still rely on centralized certificate management and are subject to authority-side privacy leakage.As a result,a key challenge in this line of research remains unresolved:how to decentralize the certificate-update process while preserving privacy against the authorities in privacy-preservingV2X trustmanagement.In this paper,we propose a distributed anonymous reputation system for V2X communication,based on an anonymous reputation system for crowdsensing.In our proposed system for V2X communication,the server is distributed to a certificate authority(CA)and roadside units(RSUs).Each vehicle shows the reputation level to the nearest RSU at the beginning of each time interval,and registers a short-time public key.In the interval,the messages from the vehicle are authenticated under the public key and are scored.At the end of the interval,the nearest RSU updates the certificate anonymously.Our solution decentralizes the certificate-update process by assigning each update to the nearest RSU.A zero-knowledge-proof-based show protocol removes the need for any central authority to handle vehicle certificates and thus prevents the authorities from tracing vehicle activities.Compared with BARS,where centralized authorities must update the reputation certificates of many vehicles and may incur communication and processing delays,our system performs each update locally at the nearest RSUonce per interval.The required interaction consists only of a fewkilobytes of communication and a zero-knowledge proof that is almost fully precomputed on the vehicle side,while the RSU-side processing is estimated to take about 40 ms based on timingmeasurements of the underlying cryptographic operations.This distributed updatemodel avoids the centralized bottleneck of BARS and simultaneously removes the privacy risk arising from authority collusion.

文摘This study investigates how to pedagogically integrate ideological education with competency development in the Intercultural Communication course,a challenge arising from China’s dual reform contexts of the New Liberal Arts initiative and the national curriculum ideology policy.As global interactions intensify,cultivating foreign language professionals who possess both firm cultural confidence and sophisticated intercultural competence have become a critical educational imperative.This exploratory study investigates how a three-dimensional“Value-Knowledge-Competency”framework can guide the redesign of course content,task design,and assessment to achieve organic fusion.Drawing on qualitative data from a case study,it analyzes specific implementation pathways,synthesizes teacher and student feedback,and discusses the resultant challenges and broader implications for foreign language curriculum reform.The findings suggest that such an integrated approach can effectively synergize value guidance with skill cultivation,though its success hinges on overcoming issues related to pedagogical naturalness,resource allocation,and standardized evaluation.

文摘Accurate prediction of environmental temperature is pivotal for promoting sustainable crop growth.At present,the most effective temperature sensing and prediction system is the Agricultural Internet of Things(AIoT),which deploys a large number of sensors to collect meteorological data and transmits them to the cloud server for prediction.However,this procedure is computationally and communicationally expensive for resourceconstrained AIoT.Recently,Semantic Communication(SC)has shown potential in efficient data transmission,but existing methods overlook the repetitive semantic information whilst sensing data,bringing additional overheads.With the resource-constraint nature of AIoT in mind,we propose the Semantic Communication-enabled Cognitive Agriculture Framework(SC-CAF)for delivering accurate temperature predictions.The proposed SC-CAF incorporates an intelligent analysis layer that performs the temperature prediction and model training and distribution,while a semantic layer transmitting the semantic information extracted from raw data based on the download model,ultimately to reduce communication overheads in AIoT.Furthermore,we propose a novel model called the Light Temperature Semantic Communication(LTSC)by adopting skip-attention and semantic compressor to avoid unnecessary computation and repetitive information,thereby addressing the semantic redundancy issues in sensing data.We also develop a Semantic-based Model Compression(SCMC)algorithm to alleviate the computation and bandwidth burden,enabling AIoT to explore the extensive usage of SC.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed SC-CAF achieves the lowest prediction error while reducing Floating Point Operations(FLOPs)by 95.88%,memory requirements by 78.30%,Graphics Processing Unit(GPU)power by 50.77%,and time latency by 84.44%,outperforming notable state-of-the-art methods.

文摘To address the issues of poor adaptability in resource allocation and low multi-agent cooperation efficiency in Joint Radar and Communication(JRC)systems under dynamic environments,an intelligent optimization framework integrating Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL)and Graph Neural Network(GNN)is proposed.This framework models resource allocation as a Partially Observable Markov Game(POMG),designs a weighted reward function to balance radar and communication efficiencies,adopts the Multi-Agent Proximal Policy Optimization(MAPPO)framework,and integrates Graph Convolutional Networks(GCN)and Graph Sample and Aggregate(Graph-SAGE)to optimize information interaction.Simulations show that,compared with traditional methods and pure DRL methods,the proposed framework achieves improvements in performance metrics such as communication success rate,Average Age of Information(AoI),and policy convergence speed,effectively enabling resource management in complex environments.Moreover,the proposed GNN-DRL-based intelligent optimization framework obtains significantly better performance for resource management in multi-agent JRC systems than traditional methods and pure DRL methods.
文摘Managing massive data flows effectively and resolving spectrum shortages are two challenges that smart grid communication networks(SGCN)must overcome.To address these problems,we provide a combined optimization approach that makes use of cognitive radio(CR)and non-orthogonal multiple access(NOMA)technologies.Our work focuses on using user pairing(UP)and power allocation(PA)techniques to maximize energy efficiency(EE)in SGCN,particularly within neighbourhood area networks(NANs).We develop a joint optimization problem that takes into account the real-world limitations of a CR-NOMA setting.This problem is NP-hard,nonlinear,and nonconvex by nature.To address the computational complexity of the problem,we use the block coordinate descent(BCD)method,which breaks the problem into UP and PA subproblems.Initially,we proposed the zebra-optimization user pairing(ZOUP)algorithm to tackle the UP problem,which outperforms both orthogonal multiple access(OMA)and non-optimized NOMA(UPWO)by 78.8%and13.6%,respectively,at a SNR of 15 dB.Based on the ZOUP pairs,we subsequently proposed the PA approach,i.e.,ZOUPPA,which significantly outperforms UPWO and ZOUP by 53.2%and 25.4%,respectively,at an SNR of 15 dB.A detailed analysis of key parameters,including varying SNRs,power allocation constants,path loss exponents,user density,channel availability,and coverage radius,underscores the superiority of our approach.By facilitating the effective use of communication resources in SGCN,our research opens the door to more intelligent and energy-efficient grid systems.Our work tackles important issues in SGCN and lays the groundwork for future developments in smart grid communication technologies by combining modern optimization approaches with CR-NOMA.

文摘Integrated sensing and communication(ISAC)is an appealing approach to address spectrum congestion and beamforming is an effective method to realize ISAC.In this paper,we investigate the beamforming design problem for multiple-input multipleoutput(MIMO)ISAC systems and propose to maximize the radar beampattern gain of the target direction while ensuring the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio(SINR)constraints of communication users.Particularly,we discuss two cases of ISAC transmit beamforming,i.e.,Case-Ⅰand Case-Ⅱ,which do not have and do have the dedicated probing signal,respectively.For these two cases of transmit beamforming design problems,we start from the single-user scenario and provide the closed-form solutions for MIMO ISAC beamforming vectors.Then,we consider the multiuser scenario and utilize the semidefinite relaxation technique to convert the beamforming design problems into convex semidefinite programming problems.Furthermore,we investigate the impact of the channel correlation between radar and communication on the performance gain of MIMO ISAC systems and characterize the performance tradeoff.Numerical results validate that the dedicated probing signal is unnecessary in the single-user scenario,whereas it has a slight improvement in target detection performance at low SINR thresholds in the multi-user scenario.It is also shown that the stronger the correlation between radar and communication channels,the greater the performance gain of the system.

文摘Federated learning often experiences slow and unstable convergence due to edge-side data heterogeneity.This problem becomes more severe when edge participation rate is low,as the information collected from different edge devices varies significantly.As a result,communication overhead increases,which further slows down the convergence process.To address this challenge,we propose a simple yet effective federated learning framework that improves consistency among edge devices.The core idea is clusters the lookahead gradients collected from edge devices on the cloud server to obtain personalized momentum for steering local updates.In parallel,a global momentum is applied during model aggregation,enabling faster convergence while preserving personalization.This strategy enables efficient propagation of the estimated global update direction to all participating edge devices and maintains alignment in local training,without introducing extra memory or communication overhead.We conduct extensive experiments on benchmark datasets such as Cifar100 and Tiny-ImageNet.The results confirm the effectiveness of our framework.On CIFAR-100,our method reaches 55%accuracy with 37 fewer rounds and achieves a competitive final accuracy of 65.46%.Even under extreme non-IID scenarios,it delivers significant improvements in both accuracy and communication efficiency.The implementation is publicly available at https://github.com/sjmp525/CollaborativeComputing/tree/FedCCM(accessed on 20 October 2025).
