An Adaptive Time-Stepping Algorithm for the Allen–Cahn Equation by Chaeyoung Lee, Jintae Park, Soobin Kwak, Sangkwon Kim, Yongho Choi, Seokjun Ham, Junseok Kim

“…The proposed adaptive time-stepping algorithm is based on the Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg method, where the local truncation error is estimated by using fourth- and fifth-order numerical schemes. Computational experiments demonstrate that the proposed time-stepping technique is efficient in multiscale computations, i.e., both the fast and slow dynamics.…”

Modified SLM algorithm based on cyclic shift and signal combination in MIMO-OFDM system by Wu-jun HU, Lin YANG

“…In order to reduce the computational complexity of conventional selective mapping (SLM) algorithm in multiple input multiple output orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MIMO-OFDM) system，more candidate sequence sets will be produced.With different peak to average power ratio (PAPR) by time domain cyclic shift and signal combination between the antennas.The receiving part can restore the rotation signals by using the sequence selection order of the transmitting part and also the original signals by comparing the inversed rotation sequence with its nearest constellation points.The simulation results show that the proposed method can effectively reduce the PAPR of OFDM signals.In addition，compared with the conventional SLM algorithm，the proposed method can reduce the algorithm computation complexity significantly and obtain similar bit error rate (BER) performance.…”

Gain and phase errors calibration for joint time reversal and PCA dimensionality reduction over multipath environment by Fangwei LI, Jiawen LU, Mingyue WANG

“…Aiming at the problem of inaccurate calibration of the array gain and phase errors caused by the signal source coherence in the multipath environment, a combination of time reversal (TR) and principal component analysis (PCA) calibration algorithm was proposed.The space-time synchronization focusing characteristic of TR was applied to obtain the return signal matrix of the target to suppress the multipath effect and reduce the signal source coherence.However, in view of the problem that the introduction of TR would make the dimension of the return signal matrix received by the array larger and increase the calculation complexity of the algorithm, PCA was utilized to implement dimensionality reduction reconstruction on the revised TR return signal matrix to reduce the computational complexity.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively calibrate the gain and phase errors of the array with lower computational complexity in a multipath environment.…”

Research on batch anonymous authentication scheme for VANET based on bilinear pairing by Cheng SONG, Ming-yue ZHANG, Wei-ping PENG, Zong-pu JIA, Zhi-zhong LIU, Xi-xi YAN

“…To solve the problem of efficiency of anonymous authentication in vehicular ad hoc network,a batch anonymous authentication scheme was proposed by using bilinear pairing on elliptic curves .The signature was generated by the roadside unit node (RSU) and the vehicle together.Thus,the burden of VANET certification center was reduced and the authentication efficiency was proved.Meanwhile,the difficulty of the attacker to extract the key was increased.Furthermore,security proofs were given to the scheme in the random oracle model.Analysis shows that the proposed scheme can meet the needs of many kinds of security requirements,the computational overhead is significantly reduced,and the authentication efficiency is improved effectively too.Therefore,the scheme has important theoretical significance and application value under computational capability constrained Internet of things (IoT) environment.…”
