LMMSE-based SAGE channel estimation and data detection joint algorithm for MIMO-OFDM system

A new channel estimation and data detection joint algorithm is proposed for multi-input multi-output （MIMO） - orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （OFDM） system using linear minimum mean square error （LMMSE）- based space-alternating generalized expectation-maximization （SAGE） algorithm. In the proposed algorithm, every sub-frame of the MIMO-OFDM system is divided into some OFDM sub-blocks and the LMMSE-based SAGE algorithm in each sub-block is used. At the head of each sub-flame, we insert training symbols which are used in the initial estimation at the beginning. Channel estimation of the previous sub-block is applied to the initial estimation in the current sub-block by the maximum-likelihood （ML） detection to update channel estimatjon and data detection by iteration until converge. Then all the sub-blocks can be finished in turn. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the bit error rate （BER） performance.

An image joint compression-encryption algorithm based on adaptive arithmetic coding

Through a series of studies on arithmetic coding and arithmetic encryption, a novel image joint compression- encryption algorithm based on adaptive arithmetic coding is proposed. The contexts produced in the process of image compression are modified by keys in order to achieve image joint compression encryption. Combined with the bit-plane coding technique, the discrete wavelet transform coefficients in different resolutions can be encrypted respectively with different keys, so that the resolution selective encryption is realized to meet different application needs. Zero-tree coding is improved, and adaptive arithmetic coding is introduced. Then, the proposed joint compression-encryption algorithm is simulated. The simulation results show that as long as the parameters are selected appropriately, the compression efficiency of proposed image joint compression-encryption algorithm is basically identical to that of the original image compression algorithm, and the security of the proposed algorithm is better than the joint encryption algorithm based on interval splitting.

Fault Tolerance in the Joint EDF-RMS Algorithm: A Comparative Simulation Study

Failure is a systemic error that affects overall system performance and may eventually crash across the entire configuration.In Real-Time Systems(RTS),deadline is the key to successful completion of the program.If tasks effectively meet the deadline,it means the system is working in pristine order.However,missing the deadline means a systemic fault due to which the system can crash(hard RTS)or degrade inclusive performance(soft RTS).To fine-tune the RTS,tolerance is the critical issue and must be handled with extreme care.This article explains the context of fault tolerance with improvised Joint EDF-RMS algorithm in RTS.The backup method has been derived to prevent the system from being recursively migrating the same task.If any task migrates three times,this migrated task will get shifted to the backup queue.This backup queue assigns the task to a backup processor and is destined for final execution.For performance evaluation purposes,a relative graph between fault and failure rates,failure and total processor utilization along with other averages have been evaluated.Furthermore,these archived results are compared with fault-tolerant Earliest Deadline First(EDF)and Rate Monotonic Scheduling(RMS)algorithms independently in relatively similar conditions.These comparisons show better performance against overloading conditions.

An exact algorithmic method based on trigonometrical relations to predict the rock quality designation

In core logging, each joint set intersects borehole into some segments. In this research, it has been shown that length of the borehole segments created by each joint set could be computed by trigonometrical relations. By realizing the lengths associated with joint sets, an algorithm has been designed to compute the length of borehole pieces (created by all joint sets) and to calculate RQD. Effect of some factors have been analyzed and applied to the abstract model of the rock mass to have the most similarity to a real rock mass. The program proposed in this study, is a robust platform to calculate the RQD in all directions inside a rock mass without having to deal with the labor of core logging and wrestling with difficulties and inaccuracies of the traditional processes. This is the first algorithmic method for estimating the rock quality which could be employed to develop a new and far more reliable measurement for the degree of jointing inside a rock mass.

Design and realization of synchronization circuit for GPS software receiver based on FPGA

With research on the carrier phase synchronization and symbol synchronization algorithm of demodulation module, a synchronization circuit system is designed for GPS software receiver based on field programmable gate array （FPGA）, and a series of experiment is done on the hardware platform. The result shows the all-digital synchronization and demodulation of GPS intermediate frequency （IF） signal can be realized and applied in embedded real-time GPS software receiver system. It is verified that the decision-directed joint tracking algorithm of carrier phase and symbol timing for received signals from GPS is reasonable. In addition, the loop works steadily and can be used for receiving GPS signals using synchronous demodulation. The synchronization circuit for GPS software receiver designed based on FPGA has the features of low cost, miniaturization, low power and real-time. Surely, it will become one of the development directions for GPS and even GNSS embedded real-time software receiver.

A PILOT-ASSISTED NON-CYCLIC PREFIXED MIMO-SCFDE SYSTEM

A non-Cyclic Prefixed Multiple-Input Multiple-Output Single-Carrier Frequency-Domain Equalization (non-CP MIMO-SCFDE) system based on a recursive algorithm of Joint Channel Es- timation and Data Detection (recursive-JCEDD) is proposed in this paper. Unlike the traditional CP MIMO-SCFDE system, the transmitted block of the proposed system is designed in the way that block-type pilot sequences and Single-Carrier (SC) information sequences have been arranged alter- nately without any cyclic prefix before each SC information sequence. Moreover, a recursive-JCEDD algorithm based on interference cancellation is proposed for the corresponding receivers. Simulation results show that the Bit Error Rate (BER) of the proposed system based on the recursive-JCEDD algorithm is lower than traditional CP MIMO-SCFDE or MIMO-OFDM with channel estimation for more than 0.5 dB.

An adaptive beamforming algorithm based on direction vector rotation and joint iterative optimization

An adaptive beamforming algorithm named robust joint iterative optimizationdirection adaptive （RJIO-DA） is proposed for large-array scenarios. Based on the framework of minimum variance distortionless response （MVDR）, the proposed algorithm jointly updates a transforming matrix and a reduced-rank filter. Each column of the transforming matrix is treated as an independent direction vector and updates the weight values of each dimension within a subspace. In addition, the direction vector rotation improves the performance of the algorithm by reducing the uncertainties due to the direction error. Simulation results show that the RJIO-DA algorithm has lower complexity and faster convergence than other conventional reduced-rank algorithms.
