Channel-Hopping Using Reinforcement Learning for Rendezvous in Asymmetric Cognitive Radio Networks by Dongsup Jin, Minho Jang, Ji-Woong Jang, Gyuyeol Kong

“…This paper addresses the rendezvous problem in asymmetric cognitive radio networks (CRNs) by proposing a novel reinforcement learning (RL)-based channel-hopping algorithm. Traditional methods like the jump-stay (JS) algorithm, while effective, often struggle with high time-to-rendezvous (TTR) in asymmetric scenarios where secondary users (SUs) have varying channel availability. …”

Dense Matching with Low Computational Complexity for Disparity Estimation in the Radargrammetric Approach of SAR Intensity Images by Hamid Jannati, Mohammad Javad Valadan Zoej, Ebrahim Ghaderpour, Paolo Mazzanti

“…Notably, unlike traditional local and global models, the computational complexity of the proposed approach remains stable as the input size or kernel dimensions increase while memory consumption stays low. Compared to a pyramid-based local normalized cross-correlation (NCC) algorithm and adaptive semi-global matching (SGM) models, the proposed method maintains good accuracy comparable to adaptive SGM while reducing processing time by up to 50% relative to pyramid SGM and achieving a 35-fold speedup over the local NCC algorithm with an optimal kernel size. …”

Beamforming design for energy-constrained full-duplex two-way relaying system by Wei WANG, Liyuan AN, Guoan ZHANG, Shibing ZHANG

“…A beamforming design was proposed under simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) protocol.A utility optimization problem was considered aiming to maximize the harvested energy by jointly optimizing the beamforming matrix,the power splitting ratio at the relay and the transmit powers at the sources.Since the formulated joint optimization problem was nonconvex,it was difficult or even intractable to obtain the global optimal solution.To overcome this issue,the objective problem into three subproblems was decoupled which could be solved by the proposed semidefinite relaxation technique and the derived constraints activation solution,respectively.The solution was finally obtained with the proposed convergent iterative algorithm.Simulation results show that the proposed joint optimization scheme achieves the optimal performance.Compared with the traditional half-duplex (HD) algorithm,the proposed algorithm can obtain 2~3 times energy harvesting (EH) efficiency improvement,while the computational complexity increases slightly.…”
