Direct localization algorithm of the aerial target based on external radiation source by Nan XIA, Danyang GAO, Baohui XING, Yaning WANG

“…In order to improve the accuracy of aerial target location and ensure its concealment, a direct location algo-rithm of the aerial target based on external radiation source was proposed.Fixed broadcast signals were used as transmit-ting sources, and the signals scattered by the aerial targets were received by multiple receivers.A direct relationship be-tween the synchronized multi-dimensional baseband signals and the position coordinates of the target was established, and then the spatial cross-spectrum function and joint matching function were constructed.Through iterative spectral peak search, the positioning results of the aerial target could be optimized, and the impact of direct signals and multipath signals on the ground could be effectively suppressed.Simulation results show that the performance of the proposed al-gorithm is better than that of the traditional two-step localization method and other direct localization methods in the case of low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), and it can achieve high-precision localization of the three-dimensional mobile target.…”

A survey on deep learning based joint source-channel coding by Tianjie MU, Xiaohui CHEN, Yiyun WANG, Lupeng MA, Dong LIU, Jing ZHOU, Wenyi ZHANG

“…Classical information theory shows that separate source-channel coding is asymptotically optimal over a point-to-point channel.As modern communication systems are becoming more sensitive to delays and bandwidth,it becomes difficult to adopt the assumption that such separate designs have unlimited computing power for encoding and decoding.Compared to joint source-channel coding,separate coding has proven to be sub-optimal when the bandwidth is limited.However,conventional joint source-channel coding schemes require complicated design.In contrast,data-driven deep learning brings new designing ideas into the paradigm.A summary of relevant research results was provided,which will help to clarify the way in which deep learning methods solve the joint source-channel coding problem and to provide an overviewof new research directions.Source compression schemes and end-to-end communication system models were firstly introduced,both based on deep learning,then two kinds of joint coding designs under different types of source,and potential problems of joint source-channel coding based on deep learning and possible future research directions were introduced.…”
