Design and Processing of Communication and Navigation Integrated Signal Based on LEO Satellite by Binghong LIU, Yafei ZHAO, Mugen PENG, Xiangtian ZHAO, Huiqi FENG

“…The integration of communication and navigation is an important direction in modern satellite communication and navigation fields.The advancement of low earth orbit (LEO) mega-constellations provides the abundant load, link and terminal resources, as well as the powerful communication coverage and information transmission capabilities.Moreover, together with the fast-changing geometric configuration and strong power, the LEO satellites can complement, backup, and enhance the existing navigation systems to provide communication and navigation services with broader coverage, higher precision and reliability.In the LEO satellite-enabled communication and navigation-integrated system, the design of the transmitted signals and the processing of the received signals are crucial for achieving efficient communication and high-precision navigation.To this end, the evolution process of the communication and navigation fusion was first outlined.Then, it focused on the design of transmitting signals and the processing of receiving signals, the relevant schemes included the layout of the frame structure and the receiver were emphasized, respectively.Finally, the challenges and potential solutions that lie ahead in the future were explored.…”

Time-based and privacy protection revocable and traceable data sharing scheme in cloud computing by Jiawei ZHANG, Jianfeng MA, Zhuo MA, Teng LI

“…General ciphertext-policy attribute-based encryption (CP-ABE) provides fine-grained access control for data sharing in cloud computing, but its plaintext formed access policy may cause leakage of private and sensitive data.And revoking a malicious user by accurately tracing the identity according to a leaked decryption key is a huge challenge.Moreover, most of existing revocable schemes incur long user revocation list and low efficiency.To solve these problems, a time-based and privacy preserving revocable and traceable data sharing scheme was proposed based on CP-ABE to support expressive monotonic and partial hidden access policy, large attribute universe by conceal the attribute values in access policy.Time-limited data access control using hierarchical identity-based encryption was achieved to set key valid period for users.Moreover, with the approaches of white-box tracing and binary tree, efficient user tracing and direct revocation with shorter revocation list was realized together with high efficiency via online/offline and verifiable outsourced decryption techniques.Furthermore, the scheme was secure under decisional q-BDHE assumption.Theoretical analysis and extensive experiments demonstrate its advantageous performance in computational and storage cost.…”
