Delay-aware cross-layer optimization method for FANET by Shaojie WEN, Chuanhe HUANG

“…An asynchronous distributed cross-layer optimization (ADCO) method was proposed to solve the problem of jointly considering real-time routing,rate allocation and power control in FANET (flying ad hoc network).And a delay-constrained cross-layer optimization framework was designed to formally represent proposed problem.Then Lagrangian relaxation and dual decomposition methods was used to divide joint optimization problem into several sub-problems.ADCO allowed each relay node to perform the optimization operation for different sub-problems with local information,and the relay nodes could update the dual variables based on asynchronous update mechanism.The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the network performance effectively in terms of energy efficiency,packet timeout ratio and network throughput.…”

Analysis and application of clutter distribution modeling in UWB SAR difference change detection of target in foliage by Guang-xue WANG, Xiao-tao HUANG, Zhi-min ZHOU

“…In forest area,the intensity backscatter varies quickly.In UWB SAR foliage-concealed target difference change detection,this characteristic had made existing clutter models couldn't fit the clutter distribution accurately.To address the problem,the clutter model suitable for uniform scene was derived.After that,by assuming the intensity of forest area backscatter follows Gamma distribution,the clutter model suitable for serious non-stationary scene was established.And the experimental results showed that,in foliage-concealed target difference change detection,the proposed model could fit the clutter distribution more accurately,and an improved detection performance could be achieved.…”

The Modernist Poem or the Infinite Prolegomena by Aurore Clavier

“…Starting from Giorgio Agamben’s observation that “the end of the poem” is threatened by generic indefiniteness, this article explores what occurs when, on the other end, the text refuses to begin, postponing its own formulation in favor of a never-ending foreword. Far from enabling an absolute contact between words and things that would settle once and for all the ambiguous relationship between reality and imagination, the seemingly close unit of the poem or collection, more particularly as it was expressed by American modernism, is thus jeopardized, the text being assigned to the virtuality of a “placeless place” (Aristotle; Agamben) where poetry and philosophy may meet. …”
