Deep learning-based method for detecting anomalies in electromagnetic environment situation

The anomaly detection of electromagnetic environment situation(EMES) has essential reference value for electromagnetic equipment behavior cognition and battlefield threat assessment.In this paper,we proposed a deep learning-based method for detecting anomalies in EMES to address the problem of relatively low efficiency of electromagnetic environment situation anomaly detection(EMES-AD).Firstly,the convolutional kernel extracts the static features of different regions of the EMES.Secondly,the dynamic features of the region are obtained by using a recurrent neural network(LSTM).Thirdly,the Spatio-temporal features of the region are recovered by using a de-convolutional network and then fused to predict the EMES.The structural similarity algorithm(SSIM) is used to determine whether it is anomalous.We developed the detection framework,de-signed the network parameters,simulated the data sets containing different anomalous types of EMES,and carried out the detection experiments.The experimental results show that the proposed method is effective.

A Spectrum Prediction-Based Frequency Band Pre-Selection over Deteriorating HF Electromagnetic Environment

As the earliest invented and utilized communication approach, shortwave, known as high frequency(HF) communication now experience the deterioration of HF electromagnetic environment. Finding quality frequency in efficient manner becomes one of the key challenges in HF communication. Spectrum prediction infers the future spectrum status from history spectrum data by exploring the inherent correlations and regularities. The investigation of HF electromagnetic environment data reveals the correlations and predictability of HF frequency band in both time and frequency domain. To solve this problem, we develop a Spectrum Prediction-based Frequency Band Pre-selection(SP-FBP) for HF communications. The pre-selection of HF frequency band mainly incorporated in prediction of HF spectrum occupancy and prediction of HF usable frequency, which provide the frequency band ranking of spectrum occupancy and alternative frequency for spectrum sensing, respectively. Performance evaluation via real-world HF spectrum data shows that SP-FBP significantly improves the efficiency of finding quality frequency in HF communications.

Electromagnetic environments in roadways of underground coal mines and a novel testing method

The electromagnetic environment of laneways in underground coal mines is an important area for the design of new electronic products,as well as a fundamental space for mine monitoring,surveillance,communications and control systems.An investigation of electromagnetic interference in coal mines is essential for the enhancement of performances of these systems.In this study,a new field method is provided in which radiated emission tests in coal mine laneways have been carried out.We conclude that:1) the wiring motor vehicles can radiate interference with a bandwidth up to 1 GHz and with an amplitude 10 dBμV/m higher than the background noise;2) the PHS(Personal Handy phone System) mobile communication system can cause interference 40 dBμV/m higher than the background noise;3) an interference 25 dBμV/m higher than the background noise can be generated during the communication at a working bandwidth of 48.8 MHz;and 4) power cables,battery vehicles as well as mechanical and electrical dong rooms have little effect on the electromagnetic radiation environment in coal mine tunnels.

The Measurement and Evaluation of the Electromagnetic Environment from 5G Base Station

In order to evaluate the electromagnetic environment of 5G base station, measurement and evaluation of the electromagnetic environment are studied. The 12 measuring points are chosen on the roof, inside and outside of the building, which has a 5G base station on the top. The electric field intensity, magnetic field intensity, and power density have been measured. The measurement methods include background measurement and work measurement. Background measurement is the measurement of environmental electromagnetic field (EMF) before the installation of 5G base station while the working measurement is the measurement after the installation of 5G base station. The evaluation methods include t-test for qualitative evaluation and electromagnetic gain for quantitative evaluation. The results show that the electromagnetic environment after the installation of 5G base station in most places is different from that in the background. And the environmental electromagnetic fields in certain parts are lower than those in the background. The conclusions are as follows: 1) The electromagnetic environment of 5G base station is far lower than the control limit of the national standard and conforms to the national standard;2) The electromagnetic environment of 5G base station has little impact on the electromagnetic environment;3) It is not sufficient to assume that 5G is harmful to health without the results of the epidemiological investigation;4) Before the construction of 5G base station, do background EMF detection, which can provide support for future evaluation.

Virtual electromagnetic environment modeling based data augmentation for drone signal identification

Radio frequency(RF)-based drone identification technologies have the advantages of long effective distances and low environmental dependence,which has become indispensable for drone surveillance systems.However,since drones operate in unlicensed frequency bands,a large number of co-frequency devices exist in these bands,which brings a great challenge to traditional signal identification methods.Deep learning techniques provide a new approach to complete endto-end signal identification by directly learning the distribution of RF data.In such scenarios,due to the complexity and high dynamics of the electromagnetic environments,a massive amount of data that can reflect the various propagation conditions of drone signals is necessary for a robust neural network(NN)for identifying drones.In reality,signal acquisition and labeling that meet the above requirements are too costly to implement.Therefore,we propose a virtual electromagnetic environment modeling based data augmentation(DA)method to improve the diversity of drone signal data.The DA method focuses on simulating the spectrograms of drone signals transmitted in real-world environments and randomly generates extra training data in each training epoch.Furthermore,considering the limited processing capability of RF receivers,we modify the original YOLOv5s model to a more lightweight version.Without losing the identification performance,more hardware-friendly designs are applied and the number of parameters decreases about 10-fold.For performance evaluation,we utilized a universal software radio peripheral(USRP)X310 platform to collect RF signals of four drones in an anechoic chamber and a practical wireless scenario.Experiment results reveal that the NN trained with augmented data performs as well as that trained with practical data in the complex electromagnetic environment.

COMPARISONS OF RAY-TRACING AND PARABOLIC EQUATION METHODS FOR THE LARGE-SCALE COMPLEX ELECTROMAGNETIC ENVIRONMENT SIMULATIONS

It is important for the wireless communication field to conduct research on large-scale complex electromagnetic environment(CEME)simulation.There exist many models for computing CEME simulation,including empirical models,half-empirical or halfdeterministic models and deterministic models.Most of these models cannot obtain satisfactory results due to the limitation of the capacity of computers.The ray tracing(RT)and parabolic equation(PE)methods are very suitable for large-scale CEME simulation.Based on the introduction of RT and PE,qualitative comparisons of the two methods are analyzed in view of algorithm theory,the category of the model,solution to the model and the application field,and then four specific indices are focused on to analyze the computational complexity,accuracy,speed and parallelism in details.The numerical experiments are presented by the three-dimensional(3D)RT method employing the software of Wireless InSite(WI)and a quasi-3DPE method using the sliced method.Although both RT and PE methods can achieve high speedup using coarse-grained parallel computing,the experimental results indicate that the PE method can obtain a higher speed than the RT method,and the two methods can acquire an approximate precision.A hybrid procedure using both RT and PE methods can obtain a better result for solving CEME problems.

Assessment of Primordial Radionuclides in Pakistani Red Bricks and Associated Radiation Doses

Specific activity of primordial radionuclides and associated radiation hazards due to 40K, 226Ra, and 232Th have been measured in backed red brick samples, collected from five highly populated areas of the North West Frontier Province of Pakistan. For the detection, analysis and data acquisition, a high purity germanium detector was used. Associated external doses were calculated using a Monte Carlo neutron photon transport code. A theoretical model to determine the gamma dose rate at 1 m height from the floor, made of bricks, was employed for the calculation of mass attenuation coefficient and self-absorption in the floor for the gamma energies of these radionuclides and their progeny. Monte Carlo simulation shows that in this study the floor, having more than an effective thickness of 15 cm, contributes very little to the external gamma dose rate. The values of the external dose rate and annual effective dose are found to be much lower than the world average as well as from other countries of the world.
