Generative Adversarial Network-Based Edge-Preserving Superresolution Reconstruction of Infrared Images by Yuqing Zhao, Guangyuan Fu, Hongqiao Wang, Shaolei Zhang, Min Yue

“…Aiming at the problems of low resolution and unclear edges of infrared images, this work proposes a two-stage generative adversarial network model to reconstruct realistic superresolution images from four times downsampled infrared images. In the first stage of the generative adversarial network, it focuses on recovering the overall contour information of the image to obtain clear image edges; the second stage of the generative adversarial network focuses on recovering the detailed feature information of the image and has a stronger ability to express details. …”

A Hybrid Multiuser Detector Based on MMSE and AFSA for TDRS System Forward Link by Zhendong Yin, Xu Jiang, Zhilu Wu, Xiaohui Liu

“…The result of MMSE and its modified formations are used as the initial values of artificial fishes to accelerate the speed of global convergence and reduce the iteration times for AFSA. The simulation results show that the bit error ratio and near-far resistance performances of the proposed detector are much better, compared with MF, DEC, and MMSE, and are quite close to OMD. …”
