New entity authentication and access control scheme in satellite communication network by Liehuang ZHU, Long WANG, Jiasheng LI, Chuan ZHANG, Weihua YUAN

“…With the increasing global demand for satellite communications,the problem of entity authentication and access control of the satellite communication network needs to be solved urgently.To solve this problem,a new multiple center-based entity authentication and cross-domain access control scheme was proposed.The scheme divided the multiple centers into two layers for entity authentication,and maped the authorization of the multiple domains to achieve access control.Simulation experiments show that the proposed scheme support the entity authentication for 100 million users.Furthermore,it also allows 1 million users to access in parallel.…”

Channel estimation method for massive MIMO system in Rice channel by Xueli WANG, Haiquan WANG, Xiao LI, Dakuan YANG

“…The high-speed mobile transportations,such as high-speed rails,pilot-less airplanes,are mostly in the open areas.Due to the existence of line of sight (LOS) propagations,the Rayleigh fading model can not describe the channels very well in these environments.The Rice fading channel model is constituted of a LOS component and a multiple-path component,which can characterize the channels more accurately.Based on the Rice model,the improved channel estimation methods and corresponding decoding methods were proposed based on the superimposed training sequences for massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) system.The improved channel estimation methods were divided into two cases:the LOS component was known to the receiver and the other was unknown.The numerical simulation results show that the superiority of the proposed methods.…”

Space-time coding scheme for the paired weak user in MIMO-NOMA systems by Mingyan GONG, Zhen YANG

“…In view of the paired weak user’s poor outage performance in multiple-input multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access (MIMO-NOMA) systems,Alamouti code was adopted to encode for the weak user in order to improve its outage performance by means of diversity,and the closed-form expression of the strong user’s ergodic capacity as well as the boundary-form expressions of the weak user’s ergodic capacity and outage probability was derived in the proposed model.Moreover,a power allocation algorithm for optimizing the system’s throughput was proposed.Finally,the numerical results show the accuracy of the derived expressions,the efficacy of the proposed algorithm,and that the weak user’s outage performance in the proposed coding scheme is far superior to that in the current coding scheme only adopting vertical Bell lab layered space-time (V-BLAST) code.…”

Application of FMICW technology based on stagger algorithm in automotive radar by Yuanhui ZHANG, Jian YANG, Junjiang ZHU, Xiaolu LI, Yuchen HE

“…The problem of spurious spectral peaks produced by the traditional method of using a single switching frequency in automotive FMICW radar was focused by the proposed scheme.The system accuracy depended on the previously estimated range if a bandpass filter was utilized to eliminate the spurious spectral peaks,and the noise floor could be too high to achieve the required dynamic detection range if the random interrupted sequence method was utilized.A stagger algorithm based on multiple switching frequencies was used,in which the spurious peaks from the frequency domain could be removed by minimizing each frequency position on multiple spectrums.Simulation results show that the proposed method is close to the equivalent FMCW radar detection performance,and is good in multiple targets scenario.…”

A metapopulation model for sylvatic T. cruzi transmission with vector migration by Britnee Crawford, Christopher Kribs-Zaleta

“…This study presents a metapopulation model for the sylvatic transmission of Trypanosoma cruzi, the etiological agent of Chagas' disease, across multiple geographical regions and multiple overlapping host-vector transmission cycles.Classical qualitative analysis of the model and several submodels focuses on the parasite's basic reproductive number, illustrating how vector migration across patches and multiple transmission routes to hosts (including vertical transmission) determine the infection's persistence in each cycle.Numerical results focus on trends in endemic [equilibrium] persistence levels as functions of vector migration rates, and highlight the significance of the different epidemiological characteristics of transmission in each of the three regions.…”
