Design and research of adaptive O-OFDM symbol decomposing with serial transmission system in visible light communication by Kejun JIA, Boran YANG, Minghua CAO, Suoping LI, Li HAO

“…Iterative signal clipping (ISC) and symbol decomposing with serial transmission (SDST) techniques decompose optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (O-OFDM) symbol into the fixed number of multiple small-amplitude symbols.However,at low O-OFDM symbol variances,the decomposition symbols contain a large amount of all-zero symbols without load information,which results in bit error rate degradation,optical power penalty and information rate reduction.Aim at this problem,an adaptive O-OFDM symbol decomposing with serial transmission (ASDST) system was proposed,the symbol decomposition was adaptively determined according to the O-OFDM symbol amplitude.Symbol decomposition was terminated until O-OFDM symbol was completely decomposed or the maximum symbol decomposition times were attained,thereby eliminated all-zero symbols and reduced the average symbol decomposition times.The performance of ASDST system was verified by theoretical analysis and Monte Carlo simulation.…”

Autonomous deployment and energy efficiency optimization strategy of UAV based on deep reinforcement learning by Yi ZHOU, Xiaoyong MA, Fuxiao GAO, Wei LI, Nan CHENG, Ning LU

“…Utilizing a UAV to build aerial mobile small cell can provide more flexible and efficient access services for ground terminal users.Constrained by the coverage and limited energy of the UAV,it is necessary to study how to build a fast,efficient and energy-saving air-ground collaborative network.To deal with complex dynamic scenarios,the UAV needs to deploy an optimal coverage position,and meanwhile reduce both path loss and energy consumption in the deployment process.Based on the deep reinforcement learning,a strategy of autonomous UAV deployment and efficiency optimization was proposed.The coverage state set of UAV was established,and the energy efficiency was used as a reward function.Depth neural network and Q-learning were used to guide UAV to make autonomous decision and deploy the optimal position.The simulation results show that the deployment time of the proposed method can be effectively reduced by 60%,while the energy consumption can be reduced by 10%~20%.…”

Research on Random Access Technology of Inter-Frame Interference Cancellation for 6G Satellite Internet of Things by Yu XU, Qing GUO

“…In 6G, one of the important application scenarios is ultra-massive machinetype communications, which is mainly oriented to the application scenarios of concurrent access of massive terminals such as the satellite Internet of Things.How to design an access mechanism that can meet the concurrent access service requirements of large-scale users in machine communication scenarios for the future 6G satellite communication network is an important problem to be solved.A random access protocol based on intra-frame interference cancellation was proposed.In this protocol, each access user who needs to transmit data sends multiple packet copies in one frame, and the receiver can successfully receive packets from multiple users in confl icting time slots by using interference cancellation algorithms in the frame.Compared with the traditional random access mechanism, this mechanism can greatly improve the throughput performance in the scenario of multi-user concurrent access.…”
