Resource optimization of secure energy efficiency based on mmWave massive MIMO-NOMA system with SWIPT by Fei ZHAO, Wanming HAO, Gangcan SUN, Yiqing ZHOU, Fei WANG, Yi WANG

“…The secure energy efficiency (SEE) problem was investigated for the millimeter wave (mmWave) multiple input multiple output (MIMO) non-orthogonal multiplex access (NOMA) systems with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) in the presence of multiple legitimate receiver (LR) and an eavesdropper.LR was first grouped according to the channel state information and the cluster heads of each group were selected,then the LR of each cluster was served by each beam with NOMA and hybrid precoding technology.Based on this,a SEE maximization problem was formulated by optimizing power allocation and power splitting factors.The Dinkelbach algorithm and first order Taylor approximation were proposed to transform the original non-convex problem into a convex one,and an iterative algorithm was developed to solve it.Finally,numerical results show that the proposed scheme can effectively improve the SEE.…”

Analysis of Influence of Soft Ground Treatment by Vacuum Preloading on Adjacent Pile Foundation by ZHOU Qiong, LI Wei, GAO Ying, WANG Jing

“…In soft ground,the deflection of adjacent pile foundation and the uneven settlement of soil around the piles caused by the surcharge loading is an extremely negative impact on the safety of the bridge.Base on the three-dimensional finite element analysis,and the specific engineering case,this paper calculates the internal force and deformation of the adjacent pile foundation under the treatment of soft ground by the vacuum surcharge preloading and the surcharge preloading,respectively.The results show that the internal force and deformation distribution of the pile foundation under the vacuum surcharge preloading are different from that under the surcharge preloading,and the internal force and deformation of the former case are less than that of the latter case,which indicates that the vacuum preloading has a positive effect on reducing the impact of ground surcharge loading on adjacent pile foundation.…”
