Mode Selection Strategy of Dual Distribution Channel Based on Revenue Analysis

Within the scope of dual distribution channel(DDC)modes—ME&T-C and M-T&E-C,a game model designed for channel members was proposed.Based on this game model,the game equilibrium under both centralized and decentralized decisionmaking situations was analyzed,the channel members' and overall revenues of two modes under the same decision-making situation are compared,and the influence of demand shift coefficient to the overall and members' revenue was also studied through example analysis.Based on the comparison and analysis of the revenue yielded from the two DDC modes,it's discovered that within a certain hypothetical range,the M-T&E-C mode seems to be a better option for the manufacturer than the ME&T-C mode.Therefore,this discovery can be served as a theoretical reference for manufacturers when choosing the optimal DDC mode in real life.

Decoy State Quantum Key Distribution via Beam-Wandering Modeled Atmosphere Channel

We investigate the decoy state quantum key distribution via the atmosphere channels. We consider the efficient decoy state method with one-signal state and two-decoy states. Our results show that the decoy state method works even in the channels with fluctuating transmittance. Nevertheless, the key generation rate will be dra-matically decreased by atmosphere turbulence, which sheds more light on the characterization of atmosphere turbulence in realistic free-space based quantum key distributions.

Security Simulation of Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution over Air-to-Water Channel Using Monte Carlo Method

Considering the ocean water＇s optical attenuation and the roughness of the sea surface, we analyze the security of continuous-variable （CV） quantum key distribution （QKD） based Mr-to-water channel. The effects of the absorp- tion and scattering on the transmittance of underwater quantum channel and the maximum secure transmission distance are studied. Considering the roughness of the sea surface, we simulate the performance bounds of CV QKD with different wind speeds using the Monte Carlo method. The results show that even if the secret key rate gradually reduces as the wind speed increases, the maximum transmission distance will not be affected obviously. Compared to the works regarding short-distance underwater optical communication, our research represents a significant step towards establishing secure communication between air platform and submarine vehicle.

Influence of the channel electric field distribution on the polarization Coulomb field scattering in In_(0.18) Al_(0.82) N/AlN/GaN heterostructure field-effect transistors

By making use of the quasi-two-dimensional （quasi-2D） model, the current-voltage （l-V） characteristics of In0AsA10.82N/A1N/GaN heterostructure field-effect transistors （HFETs） with different gate lengths are simulated based on the measured capacitance-voltage （C-V） characteristics and I-V characteristics. By analyzing the variation of the electron mobility for the two-dimensional electron gas （2DEG） with electric field, it is found that the different polarization charge distributions generated by the different channel electric field distributions can result in different polarization Coulomb field scatterings. The difference between the electron mobilities primarily caused by the polarization Coulomb field scatterings can reach up to 1522.9 cm2/V.s for the prepared In0.38AI0.82N/A1N/GaN HFETs. In addition, when the 2DEG sheet density is modulated by the drain-source bias, the electron mobility presents a peak with the variation of the 2DEG sheet density, the gate length is smaller, and the 2DEG sheet density corresponding to the peak point is higher.

Diffusion Based Channel Gains Estimation in WSN Using Fractional Order Strategies

In this study,it is proposed that the diffusion least mean square(LMS)algorithm can be improved by applying the fractional order signal processing methodologies.Application of Caputo’s fractional derivatives are considered in the optimization of cost function.It is suggested to derive a fractional order variant of the diffusion LMS algorithm.The applicability is tested for the estimation of channel parameters in a distributed environment consisting of randomly distributed sensors communicating through wireless medium.The topology of the network is selected such that a smaller number of nodes are informed.In the network,a random sleep strategy is followed to conserve the transmission power at the nodes.The proposed fractional ordermodified diffusionLMS algorithms are applied in the two configurations of combine-then-adapt and adapt-then-combine.The average squared error performance of the proposed algorithms along with its traditional counterparts are evaluated for the estimation of the Rayleigh channel parameters.Amathematical proof of convergence is provided showing that the addition of the nonlinear term resulting from fractional derivatives helps adjusts the autocorrelation matrix in such a way that the spread of its eigenvalues decreases.This increases the convergence as well as the steady state response even for the larger step sizes.Experimental results are shown for different number of nodes and fractional orders.The simulation results establish that the accuracy of the proposed scheme is far better than its classical counterparts,therefore,helps better solves the channel gains estimation problem in a distributed wireless environment.The algorithm has the potential to be applied in other applications related to learning and adaptation.

Resale price maintenance(RPM) exerts both positive and negative influences on the market competition.Such duality and the consequent difficulties in presenting evidence have often become highly controversial issues in anti-monopoly law enforcement.We found that in reality,effects of jump-dealing and RPM can offset each other.This paper systematically proposed the offsetting theory of jump-dealing and RPM,and analyzed their policy implications for anti price monopoly,thus providing some simple principles and methods to the law enforcement against vertical price monopoly.This will not only reduce the possible "superfluous actions " in current law enforcement,but also help avoid compounded mistakes due to difficulties of enforcement.

Fabrication and Dealloying Behavior of Monolithic Nanoporous Copper Ribbons with Bimodal Channel Size Distributions

Monolithic nanoporous copper （NPC） ribbons with bimodal channel size distributions can be fabricated through chemical dealloying of Mg-32 Cu alloy in an acidic solution at room temperature. The microstructure of the as- dealloyed samples was characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray analysis. These NPC ribbons are composed of interconnected large-sized channels （hundreds of nm） with highly porous channel walls （tens of nm）. Both large- and small-sized channels are open, bicontinuous, and interpenetrating. Additionally, it is the first time to find that the evolution process of porous structure along the thickness direction of samples during the dealloying is from the interior to exterior, which is just contrary to the coarsening process along the thickness direction during the post-dealloying. Meanwhile, the corresponding mechanism is discussed in detail.

High-speed and high-performance polarization-based quantum key distribution system without side channel effects caused by multiple lasers

Side channel effects such as temporal disparity and intensity fluctuation of the photon pulses caused by random bit generation with multiple laser diodes in high-speed polarization-based BB84 quantum key distribution(QKD) systems can be eliminated by increasing the DC bias current condition. However, background photons caused by the spontaneous emission process under high DC bias current degrade the performance of QKD systems. In this study, we investigated the effects of spontaneously emitted photons on the system performance in a high-speed QKD system at a clock rate of 400 MHz. Also, we show further improvements in the system performance without side channel effects by utilizing the temporal filtering technique with real-time fieldprogrammable gate array signal processing.

The influence of the channel electric field distribution on the polarization Coulomb field scattering in AlN/GaN heterostructure field-effect transistors

Based on the measured capacitance–voltage（C–V） curves and current–voltage（I–V） curves for the prepared differently-sized AlN/GaN heterostructure field-effect transistors（HFETs）, the I–V characteristics of the AlN/GaN HFETs were simulated using the quasi-two-dimensional（quasi-2D） model. By analyzing the variation in the electron mobility for the two-dimensional electron gas（2DEG） with the channel electric field, it is found that the different polarization charge distribution generated by the different channel electric field distribution can result in different polarization Coulomb field（PCF） scattering. The 2DEG electron mobility difference is mostly caused by the PCF scattering which can reach up to 899.6 cm^2/（V·s）（sample a）, 1307.4 cm^2/（V·s）（sample b）,1561.7 cm^2/（V s）（sample c） and 678.1 cm^2/（V·s）（sample d）, respectively. When the 2DEG sheet density is modulated by the drain–source bias, the electron mobility for samples a, b and c appear to peak with the variation of the 2DEG sheet density, but for sample d, no peak appears and the electron mobility rises with the increase in the2 DEG sheet density.

Research on measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution based on an air-water channel

A measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution(MDI-QKD) method with an air-water channel is researched. In this method, the underwater vehicle and satellite are the legitimate parties, and the third party is at the airwater interface in order to simplify the unilateral quantum channel to water or air. Considering the condition that both unilateral transmission distance and transmission loss coefficient are unequal, a perfect model of the asymmetric channel is built. The influence of asymmetric channel on system loss tolerance and secure transmission distance is analyzed. The simulation results show that with the increase of the channel's asymmetric degree, the system loss tolerance will descend, one transmission distance will be reduced while the other will be increased. When the asymmetric coefficient of channel is between 0.068 and 0.171, MDI-QKD can satisfy the demand of QKD with an air-water channel, namely the underwater transmission distance and atmospheric transmission distance are not less than 60 m and 12 km, respectively.

Distributed channel assignment combined with routing over multi-radio multi-channel wireless mesh networks

In order to realize the reduction of equipment cost and the demand of higher capacity, wireless mesh network （WMN） router devices usually have several interfaces and work on multi-channels. Jointing channel allocation, interface assignment and routing can efficiently improve the network capacity. This paper presents an efficient channel assignment scheme combined with the multi-radio link quality source routing （MR-LQSR） protocol, which is called channel assignment with MR-LQSR （CA-LQSR）. In this scheme, a physical interference model is established： calculated transmission time （CTT） is proposed as the metric of channel assignment, which can reflect the real network environment and channel interference best, and enhanced weighted cumulative expected transmission time （EWCETT） is proposed as the routing metric, which preserves load balancing and bandwidth of links. Meantime, the expression of EWCETT contains the value of CTT, thus the total cost time of channel assignment and routing can be reduced. Simulation results show that our method has advantage of higher throughput, lower end-to-end time delay, and less network cost over some other existing methods.

Flow structure and phosphorus adsorption in bed sediment at a 90° channel confluence

The distribution of the phosphorus（P） adsorption in a bed sediment at channel confluences is an important issue for understanding the transport of contaminants in channel networks. In this study, the flow structure and its effect on the P distribution in the bed sediment were investigated in a 90° confluence flume. It is shown that the P adsorption amount in the sediment varies significantly in different hydrodynamic zones. The P adsorption amount is high in the flow separation zone where the horizontal velocity of the flow is very small, and it is low in the maximum velocity zone where the flow velocity reaches a maximum. The low P adsorption amount is observed in the downstream portion of the distorted shear layer, while the P enrichment is found in the upstream portion, as is related to the significant downwelling flow in this zone. Thus, the flow structure, especially, the flow velocity, has a significant effect on the distribution of the P adsorption in the bed sediment at the channel confluences.

Two-Level Cross-Talked Admission Control Mechanism for QoS Guarantee in 802.11e EDCA

This paper describes a two-level cross-talked admission control mechanism that guarantees quality of service （QoS） requirements for multimedia applications over wireless local area networks （WLANs）. An enhanced distributed channel access analytical model is used to compute the maximum number of admitted users according to the QoS requirements and the packet arrival characters. Then, some channel resources are reserved for handoff calls based on the maximum number of admitted users and the call-level traffic model. The channel utilization ratio is also measured to reflect the current system traffic load. The maximum number of admitted users and the channel utilization ratio are used for admission control for applications with QoS requirements in the call level and for rate control of best effort applications in the packet level using the p-nonacknowledgement scheme. Thus, the QoS requirements are statistically guaranteed while the system is efficiently utilized. Simulations validate the effectiveness of this mechanism to guarantee the QoS and bandwidth utilization.
