Environment-aware based access point deployment optimization for cell-free massive MIMO system by Jing JIANG, Yongqiang LIU, Fengyang YAN, Sha TAO, Sutthiphan WORAKRIN

“…Cell-free massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems deploy a large number of access point (AP) across the coverage area which can provide uniform high-rate services to users.However, the quality of coverage would be affected by path loss, shadow fading scatters, and environmental occlusions around the randomly placed AP in conventional cell-free massive MIMO systems that do not consider their impact.Considering the impact of actual wireless propagation environments, an AP deployment scheme was proposed to acquire uniform and consistent coverage.Firstly, a hybrid probabilistic path loss model was utilized to characterize various wireless propagation environments.Then, the AP deployment optimization problem was solved with the objective of maximizing the average throughput.Finally, the problem was transformed into a Markov game process and solved by the multi-agent deep deterministic policy gradient (MADDPG) algorithm.The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme can provide more uniform coverage in complex environments and serve users with reliable and consistent service compared to random AP deployment and existing AP deployment methods.…”

Image encryption algorithm based on multi-direction pixel continuous folding mechanism and Radon transform by Li SUN, Zhengqian HUANG, Zhenmao XIANG

“…The image encryption algorithm based on multi-direction pixel continuous folding mechanism and Radon transform was proposed.Firstly,the initial plaintext was equally segmented to get left and right sub-blocks.Then the Radon transform was used to obtain the radon projection spectrum image by processing the left and right blocks at 0～180 degrees.And Radon projection spectrum image of left block was permutated by Arnold map,while the Radon projection spectrum image of right block was permutated based on gravity model to get two su-scrambling ciphers,then the entire scrambled image is formed by combining them.To diffuse pixels from multiple directions in space,four direction continuous folding mechanism was designed to change the pixel values by using the diffusion function corresponding to four different directions for realizing image encryption.The experimental results show that this algorithm has higher security and attack resistance with more uniform of pixel distribution in output cipher compared with the current image encryption technology.…”

Double-component combined generalized weighted fractional Fourier transform based waveform design for massive MIMO by Xingjian LI, Zhiqun SONG, Yong LI, Lizhe LIU, Bin WANG, Chang WANG

“…In order to overcome the drawback of conventional diversity technologies that sacrificing valuable communication resources such as data rate or bandwidth in massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) systems, a double-component combined generalized weighted fractional Fourier transform (DCGWFRFT) based waveform design method was proposed.The concept of computational diversity was introduced, and the diversity performance was improved via moderate computational resources without requiring channel state information at the transmitter.The principle of computational diversity of DCGWFRFT based waveform was firstly analyzed, and a DCGWFRFT based waveform design and transform process, which could be adopted combined with existing diversity methods, was then proposed according to the principle.Theoretical analysis proves that the proposed waveform design and transform process can perfectly recover the original transmitted signal in noise-free case, and the power of error of proposed waveform is distributed more evenly than that of untransformed waveform in noisy case.Simulation results show that the performance of DCGWFRFT based waveform has an advantage of at least 1.7 dB in bit signal-to-noise ratio compared with untransformed waveform when bit error rate is 10^-3.…”
