文摘Optical wireless(OW)communication systems face significant challenges such as signal attenuation due to atmospheric absorption,scattering,and noise from hardware components,which degrade detection sensitivity.To address these challenges,we propose a digital processing algorithm that combines finite impulse response filtering with dynamic synchronization based on pulse addition and subtraction.Unlike conventional methods,which typically rely solely on hardware optimization or basic thresholding techniques,the proposed approach integrates filtering and synchronization to improve weak signal detection and reduce noise-induced errors.The proposed algorithm was implemented and verified using a field-programmable gate array.Experiments conducted in an indoor OW communication environment demonstrate that the proposed algorithm significantly improves detection sensitivity by approximately 6 dB and 5 dB at communication rates of 3.5 Mbps and 5.0 Mbps,respectively.Specifically,under darkroom conditions and a bit error rate of 1×10^(-7),the detection sensitivity was improved from-38.56 dBm to-44.77 dBm at 3.5 Mbps and from-37.12 dBm to-42.29 dBm at 5 Mbps.The proposed algorithm is crucial for future capture and tracking of signals at large dispersion angles and in underwater and long-distance communication scenarios.

文摘This paper explores the synchronization of stochastic simplicial complexes with noise,modeled by stochastic differential equations of It?type.It establishes the relationship between synchronization and individual dynamics,higher-order structures,coupling strengths,and noise.In particular,this study delves into the role of multi-body interactions,particularly focusing on the influence of higher-order simplicial structures on the overall synchronization behavior.Furthermore,the effects of noise on synchronizability in the stochastic simplicial complex are thoroughly examined.The obtained results indicate that the effects of noise on the synchronizability vary with the manner in which noise propagates.The presence of noise can regulate the synchronization pattern of the simplicial complex,transforming the unstable state into a stable state,and vice versa.These findings offer valuable insights and a theoretical foundation for improving the performance of real-world networks,such as communication networks,biological systems,and social networks,where noise is often inevitable.

文摘This paper deeply introduces a brand-new research method for the synchronous characteristics of DC microgrid bus voltage and an improved synchronous control strategy.This method mainly targets the problem of bus voltage oscillation caused by the bifurcation behavior of DC microgrid converters.Firstly,the article elaborately establishes a mathematical model of a single distributed power source with hierarchical control.On this basis,a smallworld network model that can better adapt to the topology structure of DC microgrids is further constructed.Then,a voltage synchronization analysis method based on the main stability function is proposed,and the synchronous characteristics of DC bus voltage are deeply studied by analyzing the size of the minimum non-zero eigenvalue.In view of the situation that the line coupling strength between distributed power sources is insufficient to achieve bus voltage synchronization,this paper innovatively proposes a new improved adaptive controller to effectively control voltage synchronization.And the convergence of the designed controller is strictly proved by using Lyapunov’s stability theorem.Finally,the effectiveness and feasibility of the designed controller in this paper are fully verified through detailed simulation experiments.After comparative analysis with the traditional adaptive controller,it is found that the newly designed controller can make the bus voltages of each distributed power source achieve synchronization more quickly,and is significantly superior to the traditional adaptive controller in terms of anti-interference performance.

文摘This study proposes a novel time-synchronization protocol inspired by stochastic gradient algorithms.The clock model of each network node in this synchronizer is configured as a generic adaptive filter where different stochastic gradient algorithms can be adopted for adaptive clock frequency adjustments.The study analyzes the pairwise synchronization behavior of the protocol and proves the generalized convergence of the synchronization error and clock frequency.A novel closed-form expression is also derived for a generalized asymptotic error variance steady state.Steady and convergence analyses are then presented for the synchronization,with frequency adaptations done using least mean square(LMS),the Newton search,the gradient descent(GraDes),the normalized LMS(N-LMS),and the Sign-Data LMS algorithms.Results obtained from real-time experiments showed a better performance of our protocols as compared to the Average Proportional-Integral Synchronization Protocol(AvgPISync)regarding the impact of quantization error on synchronization accuracy,precision,and convergence time.This generalized approach to time synchronization allows flexibility in selecting a suitable protocol for different wireless sensor network applications.

文摘Low Earth Orbit(LEO)mega-constellation networks,exemplified by Starlink,are poised to play a pivotal role in future mobile communication networks,due to their low latency and high capacity.With the massively deployed satellites,ground users now can be covered by multiple visible satellites,but also face complex handover issues with such massive high-mobility satellites in multi-layer.The end-to-end routing is also affected by the handover behavior.In this paper,we propose an intelligent handover strategy dedicated to multi-layer LEO mega-constellation networks.Firstly,an analytic model is utilized to rapidly estimate the end-to-end propagation latency as a key handover factor to construct a multi-objective optimization model.Subsequently,an intelligent handover strategy is proposed by employing the Dueling Double Deep Q Network(D3QN)-based deep reinforcement learning algorithm for single-layer constellations.Moreover,an optimal crosslayer handover scheme is proposed by predicting the latency-jitter and minimizing the cross-layer overhead.Simulation results demonstrate the superior performance of the proposed method in the multi-layer LEO mega-constellation,showcasing reductions of up to 8.2%and 59.5%in end-to-end latency and jitter respectively,when compared to the existing handover strategies.

文摘As vehicular networks become increasingly pervasive,enhancing connectivity and reliability has emerged as a critical objective.Among the enabling technologies for advanced wireless communication,particularly those targeting low latency and high reliability,time synchronization is critical,especially in vehicular networks.However,due to the inherent mobility of vehicular environments,consistently exchanging synchronization packets with a fixed base station or access point is challenging.This issue is further exacerbated in signal shadowed areas such as urban canyons,tunnels,or large-scale indoor hallswhere other technologies,such as global navigation satellite system(GNSS),are unavailable.One-way synchronization techniques offer a feasible approach under such transient connectivity conditions.One-way schemes still suffer from long convergence times to reach the required synchronization accuracy in these circumstances.In this paper,we propose a WLAN-based multi-stage clock synchronization scheme(WMC)tailored for vehicular networks.The proposed method comprises an initial hard update stage to rapidly achieve synchronization,followed by a high-precision stable stage based on Maximum Likelihood Estimation(MLE).By implementing the scheme directly at the network driver,we address key limitations of hard update mechanisms.Our approach significantly reduces the initial period to collect high-quality samples and offset estimation time to reach sub-50μs accuracy,and subsequently transitions to a refined MLE-based synchronization stage,achieving stable accuracy at approximately 30μs.The windowed moving average stabilized(reaching 90%of the baseline)in approximately 35 s,which corresponds to just 5.1%of the baseline time accuracy.Finally,the impact of synchronization performance on the localization model was validated using the Simulation of Urban Mobility(SUMO).The results demonstrate that more accurate conditions for position estimation can be supported,with an improvement about 38.5%in the mean error.

文摘Background Pigs fed diets with different ingredients but identical nutritional levels show significant differences in growth performance,indicating that growth may also be influenced by the synchronicity of dietary carbon and nitrogen supply.Therefore,this study aimed to determine glucose release kinetics of various feed ingredients,to investigate a glucose release pattern that is conducive to synchronized carbon–nitrogen supply,and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms by which this synchronization optimizes growth of pigs.Results We analyzed the glucose release kinetics of 23 feed ingredients in vitro and found that their glucose release rates and amounts varied greatly.Based on this,a nitrogen-free diet and 5 purified diets,which represented the observed variations in glucose release rates and quantities among feed ingredients,were designed for 18 ileal-cannulated pigs.The results demonstrated that slower glucose release pattern could disrupt the synchrony of dietary carbon and nitrogen supply,reducing the growth of pigs and increasing nitrogen losses.Specifically,the diet with slower and moderate amounts of glucose release showed a relatively slower release of amino acids.Pigs fed this diet had the lower amino acid digestibility and the enrichment of harmful bacteria,such as Streptococcus,in the terminal ileum.Conversely,the diets with slower and lower glucose release exhibited a relatively rapid release of amino acids but also resulted in poor growth.They increased glucogenic amino acid digestibility and potentially enriched bacteria involved in nitrogen cycling and carbon metabolism.Notably,only the diet with rapid glucose release achieved synchronized and rapid release of nutrients.Pigs fed this diet exhibited higher amino acid digestibility,decreased harmful bacteria enrichment,improved nutrient utilization,and enhanced short-term growth performance.Conclusions Our research analyzed significant differences in glucose release kinetics among swine feed ingredients and revealed that slow glucose release disrupted dietary carbon–nitrogen supply synchrony,shifting amino acid utilization and enriching pathogens,negatively impacting growth and nutrient utilization.Consequently,choosing feed ingredients releasing glucose at a rapid rate to balance dietary carbon and nitrogen supply helps promote pig growth,and ensures efficient feed utilization.
