Performance enhancement scheme for IRS-assisted cognitive backscatter communication network by Bin LYU, Yi CAO, Jian LI, Ting QI

“…In order to achieve the self-sustainable cognitive radio network （CRN） and improve its communication efficiency， an efficient multi-mode switching scheme assisted by the intelligent reflecting surface （IRS） for the overlay scenario was proposed.In particular， the secondary transmitter （ST） could work in either backscatter communication （BackCom） mode or harvest-then-transmit （HTT） mode.The IRS was exploited to enhance the energy harvesting， information backscattering， and information transmission efficiencies at the ST.To maximize the system sum-rate， an optimization problem about the phase shirts at the IRS， time scheduling， and power allocation was formulated.Since the formulated problem was non-convex， an efficient block coordinate descent （BCD） based algorithm was proposed to achieve the sub-optimal solution.Simulation results confirm that the proposed scheme can achieve up to 200% sum-rate gain over the benchmark schemes.…”

Research on flood defense mechanism of SDN control layer:detection and mitigation by Qizhao ZHOU, Junqing YU, Dong LI

“…Aiming at the problem of spoofing flood defense in the control layer of SDN, a controller defense mechanism (CDM)was proposed, including a flood detection mechanism based on key features multi-classification and a flood mitigation mechanism based on SAVI.The flood feature analysis module of the control layer was designed for flood detection, and boosting algorithm was used to overlay each feature weak classifier to form an enhanced classifier, which can achieve more accurate classification spoofing flooding attack effect by continuously reducing the residual in the calculation.In CDM, a flood mitigation mechanism based on SAVI was deployed to realize flood mitigation, which performed flood packet path filtering based on binding-verification mode, and updated the flood features of access layer switches with dynamic polling mode to reduce redundant model update load.The experimental results show that the proposed method has the characteristics of low overhead and high precision.CDM effectively increases the security of the control layer, and reduces the time of host classification of spoofing flood attack and the CPU consumption of corresponding controller.…”

Persistent Polyclonal B Cell Lymphocytosis B Cells Can Be Activated through CD40-CD154 Interaction by Emmanuelle Dugas-Bourdages, Sonia Néron, Annie Roy, André Darveau, Robert Delage

“…We found that the proliferation of PPBL B cells was almost as important as that of B cells from normal controls, resulting in high immunoglobulin secretion with in vitro isotypic switching. We conclude that the CD40-CD154 activation pathway is functional in the memory B cell population of PPBL patients, suggesting that the disorder may be due to either a dysfunction of other cells in the microenvironment or a possible defect in another B cell activation pathway.…”

Comparative study of conventional sliding mode control and integral sliding mode control for a bidirectional dc-dc converter in an electric vehicle charger by Oualifi Khadija, Abouobaida Hassan, Mchaouar Youssef, Fathelkhair Abdelmoghit, Akli Hajar, Abouelmahjoub Younes

“…The dc-dc converter functions in two distinct modes: during grid to vehicle (G2V), it operates in buck mode to charge the battery using either constant current or constant voltage based on the battery’s voltage level; and during vehicle-to-grid (V2G), it switches to boost mode to discharge battery power into the grid at a constant current. …”
