Energy efficient relay node fast selection algorithm for multi-hop wireless sensor networks by ZHENG Guo-qiang1, LI Jian-dong1, LI Hong-yan1, ZHOU Zhi-li4

“…Aiming at the inefficiency of the relay selection of data gathering protocol for multi-hop wireless sensor networks（WSN）,an energy efficient relay node fast selection（EERNFS） algorithm was proposed.In EERNFS,time-sharing channel was adopted to maintain time synchronization of WSN and periodically update the information of the neighbor network node.The network nodes could be activated synchronously in any network listening/sleeping cycle according to a certain probability,thus the real-time consistency and the stability of the nodes’ connectivity degree in WSN were guaranteed.Based on the geographic priority,the value of the nodes and the distribution estimation of the route-link quality,the relay node was selected through the competition method and the competing between the candidate relay nodes was reduced through gradually multiplying time window method.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that EERNFS outperforms FFS（forwarder fast selection） and GeRaF in terms of energy efficiency,delay of data delivery,and data delivery rate so that the network lifetime is greatly prolonged.…”

La difficile « naturalisation » du causse Méjean by Julien Blanc

“…On the other hand, we consider this failure as the result of a “contractual turn” that is disconnected with the principle of freedom that is theoretically at the heart of any contractual form. Indeed, in a context where almost a third of the breeder’s incomes come from such contracts, signing these latter is perceived less as a matter of choice than of necessity. …”

Joint optimization of dispersion matrix and 3D constellation for STSK system based on improved genetic algorithm by Xiaoping JIN, Jiayu LIU, Chen JIANG, Qiang GUO

“…Space-time shift keying (STSK) is a modulation scheme used in multi-input multi-output (MIMO) communication systems.It uses a pre-designed dispersion matrix set (DMS) to realize the flexible design of the system between multiplexing and diversity.An improved genetic algorithm (GA) was proposed to assist the joint optimization of DMS and 3D constellations, that is, the DMS and 3D constellations were jointly coded as the chromosome of GA , and the coding gain corresponding to the rank and determinant criterion was adopted as the overall fitness value.Through efficient selection and improved mutation and crossover strategies, DMS and 3D constellations with low bit error rate (BER) can be obtained.At the same time, the symmetry of the 3D constellation was used to greatly reduce the computational complexity of according to the fitness value the coding gain.The theoretical average paired error probability (ABEP) of the 3D STSK scheme was deducted.The simulation results show that, compared with the traditional GA and random search schemes, the improved GA proposed can significantly reduce the complexity of system implementation while ensuring BER performance.…”

Computationally efficient direction-of-arrival estimation of non-circular signal based on subspace rotation technique by Wei WANG, Ming ZHANG, Bobin YAO, Qinye YIN, Pengcheng MU

“…In order to solve the problem that the high computational burden of the multiple signal classification algorithm of non-circular signal (NC-MUSIC) in direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation,a novel computationally efficient DOA estimation algorithm based on subspace rotation technique was proposed.Firstly,the partitioning of noise subspace matrix and the subspace rotation technique (SRT) were used to construct a new reduced-dimension noise subspace.Then,the two-dimensional peak searching was converted to the one-dimensional peak searching on the basis of the separation of variables and the orthogonality between the new reduced-dimension noise subspace and the space spanned by the columns of the extended manifold matrix.The proposed algorithm can enhance the computational efficiency by means of the conversion of the two-dimensional peak searching into the one-dimensional peak searching and the removal of redundant computations.Theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can reduce the computational complexity to less than 5% as compared to NC-MUSIC algorithm on the premise of ensuring the accuracy of DOA estimation.Especially,the efficiency advantage of the proposed algorithm is more obvious in scenarios where the large numbers of sensors are required.…”

Cache privacy protection strategy in content centric networking by Yi ZHU, Zheng-kun MI, Wen-nai WANG

“…Cache privacy leak was one of the important security threats of CCN,the adversary could obtain the legitimate user’s privacy information through probing cache visiting time.Aiming at this security problem,the privacy and non-privacy contents were dealt separately,then a cache privacy protection strategy based on recent visiting information and evicted copy up (CPPS-RVI＆amp;ECP) was proposed.In order to compare with the current typical defense strategy-random first k delay (RFKD),the theoretical analysis of privacy leak probability and network hit probability are further given.The CPPS-RVI＆amp;ECP identifies the recent visitor by setting privacy mark in interest packet,decreases the privacy leak probability by selecting replacing position randomly,and promotes the network performance by the mechanism of shifting evicted copy upstream.The numeric analysis results under the prescribed experimental conditions show that,whereas the ideal privacy protection ability of RFKD is obtained at the expense of sacrifice of cache contents delivery capability,the proposed CPPS-RVI＆amp;ECP can obtain low privacy leak probability and in the meantime maintain high network hit probability by setting reasonable upstream shifting probability.…”
