Design and Processing of Communication and Navigation Integrated Signal Based on LEO Satellite by Binghong LIU, Yafei ZHAO, Mugen PENG, Xiangtian ZHAO, Huiqi FENG

“…The integration of communication and navigation is an important direction in modern satellite communication and navigation fields.The advancement of low earth orbit (LEO) mega-constellations provides the abundant load, link and terminal resources, as well as the powerful communication coverage and information transmission capabilities.Moreover, together with the fast-changing geometric configuration and strong power, the LEO satellites can complement, backup, and enhance the existing navigation systems to provide communication and navigation services with broader coverage, higher precision and reliability.In the LEO satellite-enabled communication and navigation-integrated system, the design of the transmitted signals and the processing of the received signals are crucial for achieving efficient communication and high-precision navigation.To this end, the evolution process of the communication and navigation fusion was first outlined.Then, it focused on the design of transmitting signals and the processing of receiving signals, the relevant schemes included the layout of the frame structure and the receiver were emphasized, respectively.Finally, the challenges and potential solutions that lie ahead in the future were explored.…”

Reasoning method for predicting crime partner by using intimacy network of bank accounts by Fang LYU, Haibo LU, Wei WANG, Junheng HUANG, Bailing WANG

“…In recent years,research on the law of capital transactions in the case of stakeholder-type illegal financial activities has attracted the attention of researchers.In order to solve the problem of using the bank transaction data to actively discover the abnormal account criminal crime partners,a crime partner prediction method based on the asymmetric intimacy network of the bank accounts was proposed.Firstly,a general network model for bank account transactions was established to embed time-series transaction data into the network structure.Then,using the direct and indirect transaction relationship information of the node,an account asymmetric intimacy calculation method was proposed.Finally,using the asymmetric interaction information of the nodes on the intimate network,the abnormal tendency index of the nodes is obtained.The experimental results on the actual data of the multi-level marketing group show that the crime partner prediction method based on the intimacy network can effectively find potential pyramid shelling members.…”
