Hybrid precoding method for mmWave massive MIMO systems based on LFM by Haoyi CHEN, Yifan DING, Ying CHENG

“…Analog-digital hybrid precoding is a key technology for millimeter wave massive MIMO systems that reduce hardware costs while balancing system performance.However,the traditional hybrid precoding scheme often needed to find a suitable codebook for precoding,and some codebooks were not easy to obtain or had deviations in actual situations.An analog-digital hybrid precoding method based on latent factor model (LFM) in machine learning without codebook was proposed for this problem.The LFM decomposition and stochastic gradient descent method were used to approximate the designed precoding matrix to the optimal full digital precoding matrix for good performance.The simulation results show that compared with the hybrid precoding design method based on orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm,this method not only does not need a codebook,but also has better performance than the hybrid precoding algorithm based on OMP algorithm,which is closer to optimal full digital precoding method.…”

Stability Study of Distributed Drive Vehicles Based on Estimation of Road Adhesion Coefficient and Multi-Parameter Control by Peng Ji, Fengrui Han, Yifan Zhao

“…First, a seven-degree-of-freedom (7-DOF) vehicle dynamics model is established and optimized with a layered control strategy. The upper-level control module calculates the desired yaw rate and sideslip angle using the two-degree-of-freedom (2-DOF) vehicle model and estimates the road adhesion coefficient by using the singular-value optimized cubature Kalman filtering (CKF) algorithm; the middle-level utilizes the second-order sliding mode controller (SOSMC) as a direct yaw moment controller in order to track the desired yaw rate and sideslip angle while also employing a joint distribution algorithm to control the torque distribution based on vehicle stability parameters, thereby enhancing system robustness; and the lower-level controller performs optimal torque allocation based on the optimal tire loading rate as the objective. …”
