However, the centralized networking with fixed resource scheduling is not suitable for MWNs due to the special environment. In this paper,we introduce the collaborative relay communication in distributed MWNs to improve the link reliability, and propose an orthogonal time-frequency resource block reservation based multiple access(RRMA) scheme for both one-hop direct link and two-hop collaborative relay link to reduce the interference. To further improve the network performance, we formulate an energy efficiency(EE) maximization resource allocation problem and solve it by an iterative algorithm based on the Dinkelbach method. Finally, numerical results are provided to investigate the proposed RRMA scheme and resource allocation algorithm, showing that the low outage probability and transmission delay can be attained by the proposed RRMA scheme. Moreover,the proposed resource allocation algorithm is capable of achieving high EE in distributed MWNs.展开更多

However, due to the added complexity in the two-crystal assembly in which the spectra might be diffracted by two crystals, some additional impurity lines were identified. For example,tungsten(W) lines in different ionization states were diffracted by the He-like and H-like crystal.Additional molybdenum(Mo) lines in the wavelength range of He-like and H-like argon spectra lines were also summarized. The existence of these additional lines caused the fitted temperature to be different from the true values. This paper presents the identified lines through a comparison with available database, which should be included in the fitting procedure.展开更多

文摘We report the measurement of total molybdenum ion density for L-mode and H-mode plasmas on EAST using spectral lines observation and calculation based on an impurity transport code.A flat-filed extreme ultraviolet spectrometer with some spatial resolution is used to obtain the radial profiles of molybdenum spectral line emissions.The absolute calibration for the extreme ultraviolet spectrometer is finished by comparing the calculated bremsstrahlung intensity with the readings of CCD detector.Molybdenum ion transport study is performed using the radial ion density profiles and one-dimensional impurity transport code STRAHL.The total molybdenum density profiles are determined from the transport analysis.The molybdenum density during L-mode and H-mode phases are obtained,which are about 3 and 4 orders of magnitude smaller than the electron density,respectively.An inward pinch is found during the H-mode phase that leads to the peaked profile of molybdenum density.

文摘With the rapid increasing of maritime activities, maritime wireless networks(MWNs) with high reliability, high energy efficiency, and low delay are required. However, the centralized networking with fixed resource scheduling is not suitable for MWNs due to the special environment. In this paper,we introduce the collaborative relay communication in distributed MWNs to improve the link reliability, and propose an orthogonal time-frequency resource block reservation based multiple access(RRMA) scheme for both one-hop direct link and two-hop collaborative relay link to reduce the interference. To further improve the network performance, we formulate an energy efficiency(EE) maximization resource allocation problem and solve it by an iterative algorithm based on the Dinkelbach method. Finally, numerical results are provided to investigate the proposed RRMA scheme and resource allocation algorithm, showing that the low outage probability and transmission delay can be attained by the proposed RRMA scheme. Moreover,the proposed resource allocation algorithm is capable of achieving high EE in distributed MWNs.

文摘Electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction(HER) is a promising route to harvest high-purity hydrogen(H_(2)).Efficient and selective energy transformations rely on the development of novel catalytic materials in terms of compositions and structures that survive under harsh conditions.This study focuses on a unique nanostructured CoMoS_(3) catalyst for HER under strong acidic and basic electrolyte.The morphologies of the catalysts are fine-tuned by altering reaction times in a hydrothermal reaction.Limited reaction time generates twisted thin-sheet CoMoS_(3)(12 h),which spins into a nanotube with an extended synthetic time(16 h).As the reaction time increases to 20 h,the CoMoS_(3) composite creates open-ended nanotubes,facilitating reactants to penetrate and react actively in the inner space of the nanotubes.Further,prolonged reaction time(24 h) results in the formation of the close-ended CoMoS_(3) nanotubes.We find out that the open-ended structure plays an important role in achieving fast kinetics as well as creating more active sites in HER reaction.The catalyst delivers a profound performance under both acidic and basic conditions,with overpotentials of 93 mV and 115 mV(at a current density of 10 mA/cm^(2)) in the acidic and basic electrolytes,respectively.Moreover,it shows superior long-term durability in both solutions.This work will provide a great foundation for understanding the morphology effect with the same composited catalyst towards energy conversion reactions,not limited to HER.

文摘The measurement of impurity distribution in the divertor region of tokamaks is key to studying edge impurity transport.Therefore,a space-resolved vacuum-ultraviolet(VUV)spectrometer is designed to measure impurity emission in the divertor region on EAST.For good spectral resolution,an eagle-type VUV spectrometer with 1 m long focal length with spherical holograph grating is used in the system.For light collection,a collimating mirror is installed between the EAST plasma and the VUV spectrometer to extend the observing range to cover the upper divertor region.Two types of detectors,i.e.a back-illuminated charge-coupled device detector and a photomultiplier-tube detector,are adopted for the spectral measurement and high-frequency intensity measurement for feedback control,respectively.The angle between the entrance and exit optical axis is fixed at 15°.The detector can be moved along the exit axis to maintain a good focusing position when the wavelength is scanned by rotating the grating.The profile of impurity emissions is projected through the space-resolved slit,which is set horizontally.The spectrometer is equipped with two gratings with 2400 grooves/mm and2160 grooves/mm,respectively.The overall aberration of the system is reduced by accurate detector positioning.As a result,the total spectral broadening can be reduced to about 0.013 nm.The simulated performance of the system is found to satisfy the requirement of measurement of impurity emissions from the divertor area of the EAST tokamak.

文摘Lithium metal,as the most ideal anode material for high energy density batteries,has been researched for several decades.However,the dendrite formation and large volume change during repetitive lithium plating/stripping lead to a serious safety issue and impede the practical application of lithium metal anode.Herein,a nanoporous Ni foam current collector with high surface area and surface flaws is constructed via a facile oxidation-reduction method.The inherent macropore structure of Ni foam can partly accommodate the volume variation during Li plating/stripping.The well-distributed nanopores on the skeleton of Ni foam can effectively reduce the local current density,regulate the uniform lithium nucleation and deposition with homogenous distribution of Li^(+) flux.Moreover,the surface flaws induce the formation of ring Li structures at initial nucleation/deposition processes and concave Li metal spontaneously formed based on the ring Li structures during cycling,which can direct the even Li plating/stripping.Therefore,highly stable Coulombic efficiency is achieved at 1 mA cm^(-2) for 200 cycles.The symmetrical cell,based on the nanoporous Ni foam current collector,presents long lifespans of 1200 and 700 h respectively at different current densities of 0.5 and 1 mA cm^(-2) without short circuit.In addition,the LiFePO4 full cell,with the Li metal anode based on the nanoporous Ni foam current collector,shows excellent cycling performance at 1 C for 300 cycles and rate performance.

文摘Spectral measurement of tungsten(W)impurity is essential to study impurity transport.Therefore,an X-ray crystal spectrometer(XCS)on EAST was used to measure the line spectra from highly ionized W ions.On EAST,both poloidal XCS and tangential XCS have been developed to measure the plasma temperature as well as the rotation velocity.Recently,He-like and H-like argon spectra have also been obtained using a two-crystal setup.W lines are identified in this study.Through a careful analysis,the W lines of 3.9336,3.9321,and 3.664(A)are found to be diffracted by He-like or H-like crystals.The lines are confirmed with the NIST database.We also calculated the ion temperature with Doppler broadening of these lines.The ion temperature from the W lines is entirely consistent with that from Ar line spectra.The measurement of these W line spectra could be used to study W impurity transport in future work.

文摘In this paper,we present an algorithm for capacity optimization in intelligent reflecting surface(IRS)-based multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)communication systems.To maximize the capacity of elements in IRS,we use augmented Lagrange method with the equivalent transformations on the covariance matrix and reflection matrix constraints.This results an adjustable phase shift on the incident signal.Furthermore,we reshape the complex-valued covariance matrix and reflection matrix to a vector for the ease of calculating partial derivatives to find the search direction.Then,the quasi-Newton updates and modified Broyden-Fletcher-Goldfarb-Shano(BFGS)method in the complex domain form are used to find the local minimum.Finally,numerical simulation results demonstrate that our proposed IRS-aided system using the algorithm performs better than the state-of-the-art and the conventional communication systems.

文摘To simultaneously measure the He-like and H-like argon spectra, a two-crystal assembly has been deployed to replace the previous single crystal on the tangential x-ray crystal spectrometer.By selecting appropriate crystals with similar Bragg angles, plasma temperature in the range of 0.5 keV≤Te≤10 keV and rotation can be diagnosed based on the He-like and H-like argon spectra. However, due to the added complexity in the two-crystal assembly in which the spectra might be diffracted by two crystals, some additional impurity lines were identified. For example,tungsten(W) lines in different ionization states were diffracted by the He-like and H-like crystal.Additional molybdenum(Mo) lines in the wavelength range of He-like and H-like argon spectra lines were also summarized. The existence of these additional lines caused the fitted temperature to be different from the true values. This paper presents the identified lines through a comparison with available database, which should be included in the fitting procedure.

文摘Direct measurements of the intrinsic torque profile in L-mode plasmas on the EAST tokamak have been performed using the balanced neutral beam injection.Co-and counter-current neutral beams are modulated to balance the intrinsic and externally injected torques, which result in the rotation profile close to zero and flat.The experimental results show that the intrinsic torque derived from momentum balance equations is found to be in the co-current direction, peaked in the plasma edge and negligibly small in the core.
