Reconfigurable intelligent surface assisted resource optimization method for heterogeneous network by Xianhao SHEN, Ziling ZENG, Shaohua NIU

“…For reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-assisted heterogeneous network slicing, a resource optimization method with joint resource allocation and phase shift optimization was proposed.A joint optimization problem with different objectives was constructed for different services in heterogeneous networks.For enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) services, the resource block allocation, power allocation and RIS phase shift matrix were jointly optimized based on the alternating optimization algorithm to maximize the total traversal capacity of eMBB users.For ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) services, a pre-configured RIS-based heuristic URLLC allocation algorithm was proposed with the objectives of maximizing the URLLC packet reception rate and minimizing the amount of eMBB rate loss.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm achieves about 99.99% URLLC packet reception rate using only 80 RISs compared to 95.95% URLLC packet reception rate when no RISs are deployed, while the total eMBB rate is increased by 86.24%.…”

Performance analysis and optimization of cooperative spectrum sensing for maximizing secondary throughput by LI Mei-ling1, YUAN Chao-wei1, LI Lin1, YANG Rui-zhe3

“…The relationship among SU,detection threshold,bandwidth,spectrum utilization and secondary throughput in cognitive radio networks was analyzed,which indicates the lower false alarm probability,higher spectrum utilization and larger secondary throughput with less SU in C-CSS（censoring based cooperative spectrum sensing）,besides,the required detection threshold for maximizing the secondary throughput different with the traditional CSS under given SU number and the objective demand.Based on the NP criticism,an optimal cooperative spectrum sensing algorithm for maximizing the secondary throughput was proposed by solving the mathematic model to obtain the optimal party of SU and detection threshold.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the maximized secondary throughput achieved by the proposed optimal algorithm,while maintaining the given detection probability.…”

Optimized YOLOv8 framework for intelligent rockfall detection on mountain roads by Peng Peng, Langchao Gao, Jiachun Li, Hongzhen Zhang

“…To enable efficient detection, this study proposes a rockfall detection system based on embedded technology and an improved Yolov8 algorithm, termed Yolov8-GCB. The algorithm enhances detection performance through the following optimizations: (1) integrating a lightweight DeepLabv3+ road segmentation module at the input stage to generate mask images, which effectively exclude non-road regions from interference; (2) replacing Conv convolution units in the backbone network with Ghost convolution units, significantly reducing model parameters and computational cost while improving inference speed; (3) introducing the CPCA (Channel Priori Convolution Attention) mechanism to strengthen the feature extraction capability for targets with diverse shapes; and (4) incorporating skip connections and weighted fusion in the Neck feature extraction network to enhance multi-scale object detection. …”
