Space-time spectrum sharing based on game theory:dynamic access and penalty strategy by Yangyang NIU, Zhiqing WEI, Zhiyong FENG

“…To tackle the challenge of inefficient utilization of spatiotemporal spectrum resources in heterogeneous networks, a reliable spectrum sharing strategy based on game theory was proposed for scenarios where multiple secondary users dynamically access through sensing spatiotemporal spectrum opportunities.Firstly, secondary users sensed the activity state of primary users through channel sampling and subsequently seek suitable spatiotemporal spectrum opportunities.Each secondary user aimed to access more spectrum resources while preventing quality degradation between primary users.Consequently, a negotiation of individual utilities between secondary and primary users was needed, in order to reach a mixed Nash equilibrium.When the secondary user's transmission power was abnormal, its behavior would be regarded as a violation.Then, a backoff time compensation algorithm was presented to penalize the secondary users, according to the number of violations and active nodes in the network.Finally, simulation results validate the effectiveness of the spatiotemporal spectrum opportunities sharing strategy with the penalty mechanism.…”

Beamforming and resource optimization in UAV integrated sensing and communication network with edge computing by Bin LI, Sicong PENG, Zesong FEI

“…To address the dependence of traditional integrated sensing and communication network mode on ground infrastructure, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with edge computing server and radar transceiver was proposed to solve the problems of high-power consumption, signal blocking, and coverage blind spots in complex scenarios.Firstly, under the conditions of satisfying the user’s transmission power, radar estimation information rate and task offloading proportion limit, the system energy consumption was minimized by jointly optimizing UAV radar beamforming, computing resource allocation, task offloading, user transmission power, and UAV flight trajectory.Secondly, the non-convex optimization problem was reformulated as a Markov decision process, and the proximal policy optimization method based deep reinforcement learning was used to achieve the optimal solution.Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has a faster training speed and can reduce the system energy consumption effectively while satisfying the sensing and computing delay requirements.…”

AXIAL TENSILE STRENGTH ANALYSIS OF UNBONDED FLEXIBLE PIPE CONTAINING COMPOSITE TENSILE ARMORS by MA JinSheng, DU FaXi, LUO Dan

“…As offshore oil industry moves into ultra-deep water,replacing the steel tensile armors of unbonded flexible pipe with composite is becoming a scheme that can effectively reduce weight and provide better mechanical properties.The anisotropic parameters of composite are obtained by meso-mechanical method,then a model of axisymmetric structure response for composite flexible pipe with composite armored layer is established,which is based on both thick-wall cylinder theory and the differential equation of curved beam,and also the algorithm of cyclic iterative is combined.Failure models of different type of flexible pipes are obtained,and iso-strength method is used for composite armored pipe.A case study shows that composite armors can effectively enhance the tensile strength of unbonded flexible pipe while effectively reduce the overall weight.Results state that volume fraction,elastic modulus and strength of fiber are the important parameters which affect the axial stiffness and tensile strength of unbonded flexible pipe.…”

Multi-objective optimization placement strategy for SDN security controller considering Byzantine attributes by Tao WANG, Hongchang CHEN

“…By giving the software defined network distributed control plane Byzantine attributes, its security can be effectively improved.In the process of realizing Byzantine attributes, the number and location of controllers, and the connection relationship between switches and controllers can directly affect the key network performance.Therefore, a controller multi-objective optimization placement strategy for SDN security controllers considering Byzantine attributes was proposed.Firstly, a Byzantine controller placement problem (MOSBCPP) model that comprehensively considered interaction delay, synchronization delay, load difference and the number of controllers was constructed.Then, a solution algorithm based on NASG-II was designed for this model, which included the initialization function, the mutation function, the fast non-dominated sorting function and the elite strategy selection function.Simulation results show that this strategy can effectively reduce interaction delay, synchronization delay, load difference and the number of controllers, while improving control plane security.…”

Uplink assisted downlink channel estimation method of extra-large scale MIMO-OTFS system by Xumin PU, Kaiyuan DENG, Qianbin CHEN

“…A low complexity downlink channel estimation method for high-speed mobile scenarios was proposed for the extra-large scale multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal time-frequency space (OTFS) system.Different from the existing studies, the proposed method considers the significant spatial non-stationary characteristics of extra-large scale MIMO-OTFS system.Based on the visible path region, an enhanced sparse orthogonal matching pursuit (OMP) algorithm with low complexity was proposed, uplink-assisted downlink channel estimation was achieved using the mapping relationship between the uplink and downlink channels in the frequency-division duplex (FDD) mode.Simulation results show that the proposed uplink-assisted downlink channel estimation method can accurately represent the non-stationary of the system, and achieve significant improvement in the channel estimation performance while reducing the computational complexity , and still perform well in high-mobility IoT scenarios.…”
