By introducing anthropology into planning and design methodology of urban public space, it provided a new research method for the planning of urban park in our country. Through introduction and assessment of the book, existing problems and suggestions of the construction of our urban parks were proposed. In the perspective of urban parks' users, by the method of ethnology and anthropology, cultural diversity of urban public space would be investigated, paying attention to the usage behavior and different cultural characteristics, thinking about how to respect ecology and environmental construction of parks and coordinate the relation between culture and ecology while cultural diversity was respected. What should be considered in the construction of urban parks was not only culture but also ecological environment protection when culture was respected and citizens' interests during environment construction. These were also the fundamental problems needed to be considered and solved in parks' planning, construction and operation.展开更多

Each user has a maximum transmit power constraint and transmits data when it has sufficient transmit power to perform channel inversion. With biased user association, each user is associated with a base station(BS) that provides the maximum received power weighted by a bias factor, but not their nearest BS. Stochastic geometry is used to evaluate the performances of the proposed system model in terms of the outage probability and ergodic rate for each tier as functions of the biased and power control parameters. Simulations validate our analytical derivations. Numerical results show that there exists a trade-off introduced by the power cut-off threshold and the maximum user transmit power constraint. When the maximum user transmit power becomes a binding constraint, the overall performance is independent of BS densities. In addition, we have shown that it is beneficial for the outage and rate performances by optimizing different network parameters such as the power cut-off threshold as well as the biased factors.展开更多

Using joint minimum mean square error（MMSE） filter, the receiving decoding matrix is designed for each user in the paper. Source precoding （beamforming） matrix is optimized with convex function of weight mean square error （MSE）. Relay precoding matrix is obtained under MSE decomposition and convex optimization. The precoding matrix index is fed back for clustered subcarrier of OFDM with limited feedback. Then using interpolation algorithm, all precoding matrices are achieved at base station （BS） and relay nodes. Simulations indicate the effectiveness of the proposed limited feedback joint precoding and beam_formlng design. The proposed method can improve bit error rate （BER） performance and obtain better sum-rate performance in contrast to existing algorithms. It displays the BER performance is close to that of the unquantified precoding feedback method.展开更多

文摘Multi-organ-on-a-chip(MOOC)technology represents a pivotal direction in the organ-on-a-chip field,seeking to emulate the complex interactions of multiple human organs in vitro through microfluidic systems.This technology overcomes the limitations of traditional single-organ models,providing a novel platform for investigating complex disease mechanisms and evaluating drug efficacy and toxicity.Although it demonstrates broad application prospects,its development still faces critical bottlenecks,including inadequate physiological coupling between organs,short functional maintenance durations,and limited real-time monitoring capabilities.Contemporary research is advancing along three key directions,including functional coupling,sensor integration,and full-process automation systems,to propel the technology toward enhanced levels of physiological relevance and predictive accuracy.
文摘In this paper, an optimal multi user detector in DS/CDMA communication systems based on the mean field annealing (MFA) neural network is proposed. It is shown that the NP complete problem of minimizing the objective function of the optimal multi user detector can be translated into minimizing an MFA network energy function. Numerical results show that the proposed detector offers significant performance gain relative to the conventional detector and decorrelating detector while it can be implemented easily in analog hardware.
文摘New idea studying urban parks was opened up by "Reflection on Urban Park:Public Space and Multi-culture". By introducing anthropology into planning and design methodology of urban public space, it provided a new research method for the planning of urban park in our country. Through introduction and assessment of the book, existing problems and suggestions of the construction of our urban parks were proposed. In the perspective of urban parks' users, by the method of ethnology and anthropology, cultural diversity of urban public space would be investigated, paying attention to the usage behavior and different cultural characteristics, thinking about how to respect ecology and environmental construction of parks and coordinate the relation between culture and ecology while cultural diversity was respected. What should be considered in the construction of urban parks was not only culture but also ecological environment protection when culture was respected and citizens' interests during environment construction. These were also the fundamental problems needed to be considered and solved in parks' planning, construction and operation.
文摘This paper describes a linear interference cancellation multi user detector for synchronous DS CDMA systems under the condition that all spread spectrum code waveforms have the constant cross correlating coefficients. The basic idea is to get the estimation for total multiple access interference (MAI) of all users using a reference code waveform, then subtract the total MAI from the received signal. The structure of such a detector is nearly similar to the conventional detector. The BER expression obtained in the paper shows significant performance improvement compared to the other detectors.

文摘Cooperative communication can achieve spatial diversity gains,and consequently combats signal fading due to multipath propagation in wireless networks powerfully.A novel complex field network-coded cooperation（CFNCC） scheme based on multi-user detection for the multiple unicast transmission is proposed.Theoretic analysis and simulation results demonstrate that,compared with the conventional cooperation（CC） scheme and network-coded cooperation（NCC） scheme,CFNCC would obtain higher network throughput and consumes less time slots.Moreover,a further investigation is made for the symbol error probability（SEP） performance of CFNCC scheme,and SEPs of CFNCC scheme are compared with those of NCC scheme in various scenarios for different signal to noise ratio（SNR） values.

文摘Spatial modulation(SM) is a class of novel multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO) techniques toward future wireless communications,which activates only one transmit antenna in each time slot,so as to reduce the number of RF chains for saving the implement cost.Meanwhile,considering its application in 5G systems with multiple users,the detection of multi-user spatial modulation has drawn greater attention.In this paper,a pair of efficient detectors are proposed for multi-user spatial modulation.Specially,a threshold-aided approximate message passing(T-AMP) detector is proposed with the purpose of reducing the computational complexity of traditional structured approximate message passing(Str-AMP) detector.In addition,a novel probability sorting aided approximate message passing detector,called probability-ranking-aided AMP detector(P-AMP),is also proposed with the purpose of improving the performance.Simulation results show that the proposed T-AMP detector is able to achieve similar performance as traditional StrAMP with lower complexity,while the proposed P-AMP detector exhibits a better symbol error rate(SER) performance with similar complexity.

文摘A K-tier uplink heterogeneous cellular network is modelled and analysed by accounting for both truncated channel inversion power control and biased user association. Each user has a maximum transmit power constraint and transmits data when it has sufficient transmit power to perform channel inversion. With biased user association, each user is associated with a base station(BS) that provides the maximum received power weighted by a bias factor, but not their nearest BS. Stochastic geometry is used to evaluate the performances of the proposed system model in terms of the outage probability and ergodic rate for each tier as functions of the biased and power control parameters. Simulations validate our analytical derivations. Numerical results show that there exists a trade-off introduced by the power cut-off threshold and the maximum user transmit power constraint. When the maximum user transmit power becomes a binding constraint, the overall performance is independent of BS densities. In addition, we have shown that it is beneficial for the outage and rate performances by optimizing different network parameters such as the power cut-off threshold as well as the biased factors.

文摘In order to reduce the feedback load of multi-user orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （ OFDM ） -based wireless systems, a practiral limited bits feedback precoding algorithm is proposed with direct source-destination link based on amplify-and- forward cooperative relay network under frequency selective fading channels. Using joint minimum mean square error（MMSE） filter, the receiving decoding matrix is designed for each user in the paper. Source precoding （beamforming） matrix is optimized with convex function of weight mean square error （MSE）. Relay precoding matrix is obtained under MSE decomposition and convex optimization. The precoding matrix index is fed back for clustered subcarrier of OFDM with limited feedback. Then using interpolation algorithm, all precoding matrices are achieved at base station （BS） and relay nodes. Simulations indicate the effectiveness of the proposed limited feedback joint precoding and beam_formlng design. The proposed method can improve bit error rate （BER） performance and obtain better sum-rate performance in contrast to existing algorithms. It displays the BER performance is close to that of the unquantified precoding feedback method.

文摘An improved wavelet packet domain least mean square （IWPD-LMS） based adaptive muhiuser detection algorithm is proposed. The algorithm employs the wavelet packet transform to rewhiten the input data, and chooses the best wavelet packet basis according to a novel convergence contribution function rather than the conventional Shannon entropy. The theoretic analyses show that the inadequacy of the eigenvalue spread of the tap-input correlation matrix is ameliorated, thus the convergence performance is improved greatly. The simulation result of convergence performance and bit error rate（BER） performance as a function of the signal power to noise power ratio（SNR） are presented finally to prove the validity of the proposed algorithm.

文摘For reducing the inter-user interference in multi-user multiple-input multiple-output（MU-MIMO） wireless communication systems,e.g.,MIMO-orthogonal frequency division multiplexing（MIMO-OFDM） systems,it is often desirable to the complex preprocessing at the transmitter.This paper proposes a multi-user beamforming algorithm with sub-codebook selection.Based on the minimal leakage criterion,the codebook selection,limited feed-forward and minimum mean square error（MMSE） detection are combined in the proposed algorithm.This avoids the complex channel matrix decomposition and inversion.Consequently,the computational complexity at the transmitter is significantly reduced.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm performs better than existing beamforming algorithms.
