Optimization design and simplified decoding for short frame CCPM by Xiao-jie DAI, Ya-feng ZHAN

“…Considering the demand of burst communications,optimization and simplified decoding for coded GMSK sys-tem in short frame was focused on to give an optimum proposal of C²PPM system.Simplified demodulator,optimized generation polynomial of the convolution code and matched interleavers were discussed.Simulation results show that for coded GMSK system under AWGN,the performance is better than individual convolution code.Especially when BER is 1×10^-5,it performs better than Turbo code and LDPC code with the same frame length,and there is no error floor occur-ring.Finally,complexity analysis shows that the coded GMSK system has lower implementation complexity in compari-son with the commonly used convolution code,Turbo code and LDPC code.…”

Test case minimizing based on combination chaos genetic algorithm by Qing SHEN, Yunliang JIANG, Zhangguo SHEN, Jungang LOU

“…Test case minimizing is one of the most important research fields in software testing.Uniformly distributed Chebyshev and Logistic chaos sequence were introduced in the selection，crossover and mutation of genetic algorithm.Chaos disturbance was also added in genetic testing suite to address the common problems of weak ability in local search and premature convergence，thus to optimize the test result.Experiments were conducted in randomly generated test suites and Siemens test suites.Comparisons were also made with classical methods regard to the scale of production of test suite and the execution time of the algorithms.The results of the experiment indicate that based on the same execution time of the algorithms，a smaller scale test suite can be produced by introducing chaotic sequence in genetic testing suite selection.…”
