We define inter-layer hierarchical random linear network codes （IHRLNC）, which not only take the flexibility of intersession network coding for layer mixing but also consider the strict priority inherent in the layered source data. Furthermore, we propose the inter-layer hierarchical multicast （IHM）, which performs IHRLNC in the network such that each sink can recover some source layers according to its individu- al capacity. To determine the optimal type of IHRLNC that should be performed on each edge in IHM, we formulate an optimization problem based on 0-1 integer linear programming, and propose a heuristic approach to approximate the optimal solution in polynomial time. Simulation results show that the proposed IHM can achieve throughput gains over the layered muhicast schemes.展开更多

However, due to the resource constraints in satellites, it is extravagant to configure lots of the potential contacts into contact plans. What's more, a huge contact plan makes the computing more complex, which further increases computing time. As a result, how to design an efficient contact plan becomes crucial for multi-layer satellite network, which usually has a large scaled topology. In this paper, we propose a distributed contact plan design scheme for multi-layer satellite network by dividing a large contact plan into several partial parts. Meanwhile, a duration based inter-layer contact selection algorithm is proposed to handle contacts disruption problem. The performance of the proposed design was evaluated on our Identifier/Locator split based satellite-terrestrial network testbed with 79 simulation nodes. Experiments showed that the proposed design is able to reduce the data delivery delay.展开更多

Double-wall carbon nanotubes （DWCNTs） are one of the most fundamental and ideal model systems to study the interqayer coupling in one-dimensional systems. In this work, Rayleigh scattering spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy are used to characterize the electronic transition between inner-and outer-nanotubes of the exactly same individual DWCNT. We find that the interqayer coupling is strong, leading to downshifts in most of the optical transition energies （up to -0.2 eV） compared to isolated CNTs. We also find that the presence of metallic tubes lead to stronger shifts. The inter-layer screening of Coulomb interactions is one of the key factors in explaining the observed results.展开更多
