Secure communication approach for Internet of things based on C-RAN fronthaul compression by Yong WANG, Mu ZHOU, Zengshan TIAN, Jinjun WU

“…A resource allocation algorithm was proposed for downlink C-RAN secure communication system.This algorithm jointly optimized the parameters of base station (BS) mode,quantized noise and beamforming under the constraints of SINR requirements of Internet of things information receiver,eavesdropped receiver and fronthaul link capacity.Such a design was a non-convex optimization problem,and a step-by step optimization algorithm was proposed to decompose the original optimization problem efficiently.Semi-definite technique and function smoothing approach were adopted,and the local optimization solution of the original problem was obtained by the iterative different of convex method.Bi-section approach was further proposed to determine BS mode,and the transmitting power of the BSs were finally optimized.Simulation results indicate that the proposed joint optimization algorithm achieves better performance than group sparse optimization algorithm and baseline algorithm,and it has approximate optimal performance as the exhaustive search algorithm.…”

Buffer-aided cooperative NOMA with power transfer by Long YANG, Li ZHAO, Yuchen ZHOU, Bingtao HE, Jian CHEN

“…To improve the throughput of multiuser simultaneous wireless information and power transfer systems, a buffer-aided cooperative non-orthogonal multiple access scheme with power transfer was designed to maximize the average throughput under the constraints of average/peak power, user’s rate, and the buffer stability.To reduce the optimization complexity, the Lyapunov’s method was introduced to convert the long-term average optimization problem into a series of time-discrete subproblems, and an adaptive transmission and resource allocation optimization algorithm was proposed, where the working mode, the user scheduling and the power allocation were dynamically optimized according to the time-varying channel/buffer state.Simulation results demonstrate that compared with the existing schemes, the proposed scheme can significantly enhance the average throughput whilst achieving the tradeoff between the delay and throughput.…”

Optimization strategy of multi-link energy efficient joint transmission of Wi-Fi 7 by Linyan DAI, Xuming FANG, Rong HE

“…In the multi-link non-simultaneous transmit and receive mode of next-generation Wi-Fi 7 protocol, the transmission ending time of multi-link device (MLD) needs to be aligned on each link, which may require data padding, resulting in the waste of spectrum resources and transmission energy consumption.A high energy efficient MLD transmission algorithm was proposed to improve the total energy efficiency of MLD station (STA) on the premise of meeting the data transmission delay limit.The proposed algorithm was optimized from the following three aspects: link data distribution ratio, communication resource allocation and STA transmission power.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce energy consumption by reducing padding data on the premise of guaranteeing the delay limit of data transmission, and the transmission energy efficiency of the system is increased by about 150% compared with that of the baseline scheme.…”
