Application of Wavelet Analysis toInterference Elimination for Geochemical Hydrocarbon Exploration

Interference in the data of geochemical hydrocarbon exploration is a large obstacle for anomaly recognition. The multiresolution analysis of wavelet analysis can extract the information at different scales so as to provide a powerful tool for information analysis and processing. Based on the analysis of the geometric nature of hydrocarbon anomalies and background, Mallat wavelet and symmetric border treatment are selected and data pre-processing (logarithm-normalization) is established. This approach provide good results in Shandong and Inner Mongolia, China. It is demonstrated that this approach overcome the disadvantage of backgound variation in the window (interference in window), used in moving average, frame filtering and spatial and scaling modeling methods.

Investigation on the Thermostability of Germanium and Elimination of Chloride and Sulfate.Interference on Germanium in Graphite Furnace Atomic Absorption Spectrometry

The thermostability and the interference-resisting property of germanium (Ge) in graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry (GF.AAS) were increased remarkably when palladium and lithium nitrates were used as complexing matrix modifiers and barium nitrate as supplementary matrix modifier.

A novel nest-based scheduling method for mobile wireless body area networks

Wireless Body Area Networks(WBANs)comprise various sensors to monitor and collect various vital signals,such as blood pressure,pulse,heartbeat,body temperature,and blood sugar.A dense and mobile WBAN often suffers from interference,which causes serious problems,such as wasting energy and degrading throughput.In reality,not all of the sensors in WBAN need to be active at the same time.Therefore,they can be divided into different groups so that each group works in turn to avoid interference.In this paper,a Nest-Based WBAN Scheduling(NBWS)algorithm is proposed to cluster sensors of the same types in a single or multiple WBANs into different groups to avoid interference.Particularly,we borrow the graph coloring theory to schedule all groups to work using a Time Division for Multimodal Sensor(TDMS)group scheduling model.Both theoretical analysis and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed NBWS algorithm performs better in terms of frequency of collisions,transmission delay,system throughput,and energy consumption compared to the counterpart methods.

Multi-Agent Deep Reinforcement Learning for Cross-Layer Scheduling in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks

Due to the fading characteristics of wireless channels and the burstiness of data traffic,how to deal with congestion in Ad-hoc networks with effective algorithms is still open and challenging.In this paper,we focus on enabling congestion control to minimize network transmission delays through flexible power control.To effectively solve the congestion problem,we propose a distributed cross-layer scheduling algorithm,which is empowered by graph-based multi-agent deep reinforcement learning.The transmit power is adaptively adjusted in real-time by our algorithm based only on local information(i.e.,channel state information and queue length)and local communication(i.e.,information exchanged with neighbors).Moreover,the training complexity of the algorithm is low due to the regional cooperation based on the graph attention network.In the evaluation,we show that our algorithm can reduce the transmission delay of data flow under severe signal interference and drastically changing channel states,and demonstrate the adaptability and stability in different topologies.The method is general and can be extended to various types of topologies.

Resonant Beam Communications:A New Design Paradigm and Challenges

Resonant beam communications (RBCom), which adopts oscillating photons between two separate retroreflectors for information transmission, exhibits potential advantages over other types of wireless optical communications (WOC). However, echo interference generated by the modulated beam reflected from the receiver affects the transmission of the desired information. To tackle this challenge, a synchronization-based point-to-point RBCom system is proposed to eliminate the echo interference, and the design for the transmitter and receiver is discussed. Subsequently,the performance of the proposed RBCom is evaluated and compared with that of visible light communications(VLC)and free space optical communications (FOC). Finally, future research directions are outlined and several implementation challenges of RBCom systems are highlighted.
