A Method to Improve the Performance of Arrays for Aperture-Level Simultaneous Transmit and Receive by Dujuan Hu, Xizhang Wei, Mingcong Xie, Yanqun Tang

“…The simultaneous transmit and receive (STAR) system needs to establish sufficiently high isolation between the transmitter and the receiver in order to play its role. However, due to the nonlinear characteristics and the accompanying noise of the active devices in the system, the coupling from the transmit channel to the receive channel cannot be accurately estimated in massive arrays, making it hard to improve the isolation between the transmit and receive channels. …”

Reliability evaluation of hierarchical hypercube network by Ximeng LIU, Yufang ZHANG, Shuming ZHOU, Xiaoyan LI

“…Aiming at the problem that the reliability research on hierarchical hypercube networks was not yet systematic, which severely restricted its application and popularization, the hierarchical hypercube network was taken as studying object, on the basis of obtaining the relevant topological properties of the hierarchical hypercube network, the h-extra conditional diagnosability and t/s-diagnosability of the n-dimension hierarchical hypercube (HHC_n) network under the PMC model and MM* model were obtained by theoretical deduction.In addition, the t/s-diagnosis algorithm of HHC_n under the PMC model and MM* model was designed and its time complexity was analyzed.The research results show that the h-extra conditional diagnosability of HHC_n is about h+1 times of its traditional diagnosability, and the t/s-diagnosability of HHC_n is about s+1 times of its traditional diagnosability.Those results improve the reliability index of the hierarchical hypercube network and provide an important theoretical basis for its application and popularization.…”
