FPGA-Jetson based hardware real-time co-simulation for smart grid by Tong DUAN, Venkata Dinavahi, Tianshi CHENG

“…Smart grid is a power-communication coupled cyber-physical power system (CPPS), where the two-domain coupling features make the real-time simulation difficult.Different from the existing software-based co-simulation methods, a FPGA-Jetson based real-time co-simulation platform for smart grid by leveraging the FPGA’'s programmable computation capability and Jetson’s real-time operating system was designed.The power system simulation was carried out on the FPGA board, the information communication system simulation was completed on Jetson platform, and the two-domain information interaction was simulated through the PCIe channel.By making full use of the computing and data transmission capabilities of each module, the real-time simulation of the combination of power grid and communication network was realized.Finally, the corresponding specific modeling and parameters were designed for the two representative smart grid scenarios: hybrid AC-DC transmission network and micro-grid, the validity and scalability of the proposed real-time co-simulation architecture were verified.…”

Secondary throughput maximization scheme for non-linear energy harvesting cognitive radio networks by Haijiang GE, Ning JIA, Kaikai CHI, Yunzhi CHEN

“…Aiming at a cognitive radio network (CRN) consisting of a pair of primary users and M pairs of secondary users, the secondary throughput maximization for CRN based on the non-linear energy harvesting model was studied.Specifically, in the case of considering secondary transmitter (ST) circuit power, the secondary throughput maximization (STM) problem with primary users’ throughput demands was first modeled as a non-linear optimization problem and then transformed into a convex optimization problem.Finally, a low-complexity algorithm combining the golden section and dichotomy was proposed.By applying this low-complexity algorithm, the optimal time allocation of the primary transmitter (PT)’s energy transmission and secondary users’ information transmission, and the optimal transmission power of PT were obtained.In addition, for the case of neglecting the ST circuit power, the convex property of the STM problem was first proved, and then a more efficient algorithm was designed to solve it.The simulation results show that compared with the equal time allocation method and the link gain priority method, the proposed design algorithm significantly improves the throughput of secondary users.…”

Application and Research of Three-Row Pile Retaining Structure in Key Project of Drainage Pumping Station by HU Xubao, YAN Yong

“…Most of the wing walls at the connection section of forebays in key projects of drainage pumping stations are generally designed as cantilevers,buttresses,or box-type retaining wall structures and are equipped with temporary diversion and supporting measures,which thus require high project investment and long construction period.This paper took the Yaquewei water conservancy project as an example and optimized the scheme of wing walls between the pump station and the sluice at the connection section of the forebay of a large-scale drainage pumping station.After comparison and selection,it was recommended to adopt a three-row pile retaining structure,which is less used in water conservancy projects.The optimized scheme saves the project investment and shortens the construction period.At the same time,three-dimensional finite element numerical simulation technology and other means were used to compare the calculation results with the measured engineering data,so as to demonstrate the technical feasibility of the scheme and summarize the design experience.…”

Integrated communication and positioning system enabled by fusing visible light and RF by Yanbing YANG, Chao HU, Bangyan LU, Pinpin ZHANG, Yimao SUN, Guanyu CHEN

“…Aiming at the problem that in the hybrid visible light and RF network, such as the traditional user switching scheme leveraging received signal strength and ignoring the user switching error rate, a location-based user switching scheme was proposed.Specifically, an integrated communication and positioning system built upon low-cost IoT chip ESP32 was designed, which could fuse both visible light communication downlink and Wi-Fi uplink signals for accurate user location.A communication and positioning integration framework utilizing time-frequency multiplexing was designed, which used a neural network to estimate the user’s position, and the user completed the switching based on the estimated position.In terms of communication, the throughput of the system can reach up to 35 kbit/s.In terms of positioning, the positioning accuracy of the system can reach 2.8 cm, making a 33% improvement over traditional system.Compared with the switching scheme relying on received signal strength, user switching error rate of the proposed scheme is reduced by 4%.…”
