Reversible data hiding in encrypted images based on fine-grained embedding room reservation by Jinwei LI, Xiaoya ZHANG, Yuanzhi YAO, Nenghai YU

“…Reversible data hiding in encrypted images has attracted considerable attention due to the privacy-preserving requirement for cloud data management.The good performance in this area can be achieved by using the existing framework of reserving room before encryption, where the image is partitioned to two independent slices consisting of blocks and then traditional reversible data hiding techniques are utilized to vacate room.In order to better exploit the spatial correlation of images, a fine-grained scalable embedding room reservation strategy in which blocks were rearranged to constitute the textured slice and the smooth slice was proposed.The block-size can be adjusted adaptively according to the texture of the images and the size of room to be vacated.The original locations of these blocks were efficiently represented as the to-be-embedded auxiliary information for image restoration.Because pixels in the smooth slice are easier to be predicted, the smooth slice can contain more pixel bits from the textured slice to reserve more room and fewer embedding distortions are induced with traditional reversible data hiding techniques.Extensive experiments demonstrate the merits of the proposed method in terms of embedding capacity and image quality.…”

Establishment and performance analysis of RIS-assisted coded relay cooperation system based on LDPC product codes by Shunwai ZHANG, Jin WANG

“…To pursue the ultra-reliable information transmission, the system which combined the reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) technology and coded relay cooperation technology was investigated.The RIS-assisted coded relay cooperation system model based on low density parity check (LDPC) product codes was established.Based on LDPC product codes, the information matrix was row-encoded by the source node and column-encoded by the relay node, respectively.An efficient joint iterative decoding algorithm was proposed.The two received signals at the destination were row-decoded and column-decoded iteratively to update the logarithmic likelihood ratios of information bits, and then the decoding decision was made.The closed-form solutions of the outage probability and the channel capacity with finite codelength were theoretically derived.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed system obviously outperforms the traditional coded relay cooperation.The more number of RIS elements, the more significant advantage can be obtained.Simulation results also demonstrate that the channel capacity with finite codelength approaches the ideal channel capacity with the codelength of LDPC product codes increasing.…”

Green communication and networking for Carbon-peaking and Carbon-neutrality: challenges and solutions by Zhisheng NIU, Sheng ZHOU, Yuxuan SUN

“…Driven by the Carbon-peaking and Carbon-neutrality strategic goals, future mobile communication and networks need to drastically reduce energy consumption while satisfying the growing traffic demand.Therefore, it is necessary to study the theories and technologies used to send more information bits with less energy (SMILE).To meet the challenge, it was far from enough to rely solely on the improvements of wireless transmission technologies and hardware.It was necessary to explore efficient energy utilization mechanisms from the perspective of the system and network.Both energy saving and renewable energy utilization approaches were proposed, and solutions for the growing computing energy consumption were provided.Specifically, by introducing hyper-cellular network, agile coverage and elastic access were realized, and thus service base stations and edge servers could enter the sleeping mode to save energy when the traffic volume was low.Meanwhile, by the introduction of renewable energy and the smart adaption of energy flow and information flow, the energy consumption of the power grid could be greatly reduced.Furthermore, green computing and artificial intelligence could be realized through network function virtualization, energy-efficient coordination of communication and compute resources, and distributed computing and coordination approaches of moving agents.…”
