Research on national security risk assessment model of open government data by Biao WANG, Xingyang LIU, Ka XU, Wangyang LIU, Kenan WANG, Yuqing XIA

“…As an important strategic resource of national and social development,the government open data is of great value.But China lack standards in the security risk assessment of government open data,especially the security of national data is at risk.Based on the theory of information security risk assessment,a government open data security risk assessment model was constructed with national security assets,open data vulnerability and security threat as the main security risk elements.Analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation methods were used to quantify and evaluate the security risks of government open data,and the validity of the model is verified by example.…”

Novel method of spread spectrum communication by Jia-fang KANG, Hong-xing WANG, Zhi-yong ZHAO, Zhong-yang MAO, Xi-guo LIU, Chuan-hui1 LIU

“…As the bandwidth efficiency of traditional spread spectrum modulation is quite low,a novel spread spectrum communication method,which uses the relative position of the spread spectrum modulation symbol to carry information was presented,and the method establishes the relationship between the information transfer rate and the spreading code or the transmission bandwidth.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the modulation method can not only greatly improve the bandwidth efficiency of the spread spectrum system,but also effectively combat broadband,narrow-band or other spread spectrum interference.This method provides some novel ideas for the future research of spread spectrum communications.…”
