Occurrence and Variations of Middle and Low Latitude Sporadic E Layer Investigated With Longitudinal and Latitudinal Chains of Ionosondes by Qiong Tang, Jiaqi Zhao, Zhibin Yu, Yi Liu, Lianhuan Hu, Chen Zhou, Zhengyu Zhao, Xueshang Feng

“…Results at different stations along ∼40°N latitude show much lower Es occurrence at the American sector than that at European and East Asian sectors, which is most likely because the horizontal geomagnetic field in north America is smaller than in other regions. The statistical results demonstrate that the seasonal variations of Es occurrence and strength are related to the annual variation of meteor counts. …”

Anonymity handover authentication protocol based on group signature for wireless Mesh network by Bin-ting SU, Li XU, Feng WANG, NZhi-xing LI

“…In order to ensure that the Mesh network mobile client video,voice and other real-time strong applications without interruption,a secure and efficient handover authentication was very important.To protect the privacy of mobile nodes,an anonymity handover authentication protocol was proposed based on group signature for wireless mesh network.Compared with other handover authentication protocols based on group signature,the proposed scheme did not involve the group signature correlation operation,and the group signature algorithm was only carried out on the router.The pro-posed protocol not only enhances the security but also performs well in authentication efficiency and privacy-preserving.…”
