Compressive sensing based data gathering algorithm over unreliable links in WSN by Ce ZHANG, Xia ZHANG, Ou LI, Guan-lin MEI, Zhe HAN, Da-long ZHANG, Guang-yi LIU

“…To solve the problem that the ubiquitous unreliable links in the WSN influence the performance of the compressive sensing (CS) based data gathering,first the relationship between the reconstruction SNR of CS-based data gathering algorithm and the bit-error-ratio (BER) were simulated quantitatively.Then classify two cases were classified,namely light-payload and heavy-payload,relying on the analysis of wireless link packet loss characteristics.The random packet loss model was conceived to describe the packet loss under light-payload scenario.Further the neighbor topology spatial correlation prediction-based CS data gathering (CS-NTSC) algorithm was proposed,which utilized the nodes spatial correlation to reduce the impact of error.Additionally,the node pseudo-failure model was conceived to describe the packet loss occurred in network congestion,and then the sparse schedule-aided CS data gathering (CS-SSDG) algorithm were conceived,for the purpose of changing the sparsity of measurement matrix and avoiding measurements amongst the nodes affected by unreliable links,thus weakening the impact of error/loss on data reconstruction.Simulation analysis indicates that the proposed algorithms are not only capable of improving the accuracy of the data reconstruction without extra energy,but also effectively reducing the impact affected by the unreliable links imposed on CS-based data gathering.…”

Hybrid Single-Packet IP Traceback with Low Storage and High Accuracy by Ming Hour Yang

“…RIHT uses IP header’s ID and offset fields to mark packets, so it inevitably suffers from fragment and drop issues for its packet reassembly. Although the 16-bit hybrid IP traceback schemes, for example, MORE, can mitigate the fragment problem, their storage requirement grows up with packet numbers. …”

Time-varying channel estimation in OFDM systems based on multiple symbols BEM by Yong DING, Shan OUYANG, Yue-lei XIE, Jun-zheng JIANG, Xiao-mao CHEN

“…In view of the problem of low frequency spectrum utilization for the time-varying channel estimation in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM) systems based on basis expansion model (BEM),a new method based on multiple symbols BEM was proposed.Compared with the conventional method based on single symbol,the proposed method reduced the subcarriers for pilots.And by means of the baseline tilting technique,the new method mitigated the Gibbs phenomenon caused by Fourier series expansion.The theoretical analysis reveals that the channel model error is reduced due to the introduction of the baseline tilting technique when the normalized Doppler frequency is no more than <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"> <mfrac> <mrow> <mfrac> <mn>1</mn> <mn>2</mn> </mfrac> <mo>−</mo><mfrac> <mn>1</mn> <mi>M</mi> </mfrac> </mrow> <mrow> <mn>1</mn><mo>+</mo><mfrac> <mrow> <msub> <mi>N</mi> <mi>g</mi> </msub> </mrow> <mi>N</mi> </mfrac> </mrow> </mfrac> <mtext> </mtext></math></inline-formula>.Finally,the numerical simulation shows that compared with conventional methods,the proposed algorithm achieves significant improvement on the estimation error performance and bit error rate (BER) performance under the conditions of the corresponding time-varying channel.…”
