Predictive Decision and Reliable Accessing for UAV Communication in Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks

The cooperation of multiple Unmanned Aerial Vehicles(UAVs) has become a promising scenario in Space-Air-Ground Integrated Networks(SAGINs) recently due to their widespread applications,where wireless communication is a basic necessity and is normally categorized into control and nonpayload communication(CNPC) as well as payload communication. In this paper, we attempt to tackle two challenges of UAV communication respectively on establishing reliable CNPC links against the high mobility of UAVs as well as changeable communication conditions, and on offering dynamic resource optimization for Quality-of-Service(QoS) guaranteed payload communication with variable link connectivity. Firstly, we propose the concept of air controlling center(ACC), a virtual application equipped on the infrastructure in SAGINs, which can collect global information for estimating UAV trajectory and communication channels. We then introduce the knapsack problem for modelling resource optimization of UAV communication in order to provide optimal access points for both CNPC and payload communication. Meanwhile, using the air controlling information, predictive decision algorithm and handover strategy are introduced for the reliable connection with multiple access points. Simulation results demonstrate that our proposal ensures an approximate always-on reliable accessing of communication links and outperforms the existing methods against high mobility,sparse distribution, and physical obstacles.

Learning-Based Switched Reliable Control of Cyber-Physical Systems With Intermittent Communication Faults

This study deals with reliable control problems in data-driven cyber-physical systems(CPSs) with intermittent communication faults, where the faults may be caused by bad or broken communication devices and/or cyber attackers. To solve them, a watermark-based anomaly detector is proposed, where the faults are divided to be either detectable or undetectable.Secondly, the fault's intermittent characteristic is described by the average dwell-time(ADT)-like concept, and then the reliable control issues, under the undetectable faults to the detector, are converted into stabilization issues of switched systems. Furthermore,based on the identifier-critic-structure learning algorithm, a datadriven switched controller with a prescribed-performance-based switching law is proposed, and by the ADT approach, a tolerated fault set is given. Additionally, it is shown that the presented switching laws can improve the system performance degradation in asynchronous intervals, where the degradation is caused by the fault-maker-triggered switching rule, which is unknown for CPS operators. Finally, an illustrative example validates the proposed method.

Reliable Wireless Communication for Medical Devices Using Turbo Convolution Code

Wireless technology is now being used to bring significantly innovative products and services in the healthcare sector, enabling new medical sensors, and treatment methods. In this paper, a new and improved communication system for communicating signals among different medical devices and a console is presented. Considering the need for very high degree of functional reliability of communication link in RF challenged environment (indoor), a novel algorithm called bi-directional “Soft Output Viterbi Algorithm (SOVA)” decoding for double-binary Circular Recursive Systematic Convolutional (CRSC) turbo codes is presented. The bi-directional SOVA is considered in view of its better performance and implementation complexity trade-off. The basic SOVA has been described for binary turbo code. We have extended it for double binary case, which is useful for high data rate healthcare applications using real time streaming data. Necessary changes in basic message passing equations for double-binary case have been introduced. Coding gain can be used to increase the robustness and immunity to interference. Decoding of CRSC codes requires a prologue decoder, prior to the actual trellis decoding, to estimate the initial state. Efficient determination of circulation state through prologue decoding has helped in achieving impressive error performance for CRSC codes. The issues related to digital implementation of turbo encoder/decoder and their effects on error performance have also been discussed. Adequate simulation results have been included.

Hierarchical simultaneous entanglement swapping for multi-hop quantum communication based on multi-particle entangled states

Entanglement swapping is a key technology for multi-hop communication based on entanglement in quantum networks. However, the end-to-end delay of the traditional sequential entanglement swapping (SEQES) grows rapidly withthe increase of network scale. To solve this problem, we first propose a low-delay multi-particle simultaneous entanglementswapping (SES) scheme to establish the remote four-particle Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) channel states for thebidirectional teleportation of three-particle GHZ states, in which the intermediate nodes perform Bell state measurements,send the measurement results and the Bell state type to the user node Bob (or Alice) through classical channel simultaneously. Bob (or Alice) only needs to carry out a proper unitary operation according to the information he (or she) hasreceived. Further, we put forward a hierarchical simultaneous entanglement swapping (HSES) scheme to reduce the classical information transmission cost, which is composed of level-1 SES and level-2 SES (schemes). The former is an innersegment SES, and the latter is an inter segments SES. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show the HSES can obtainthe optimal performance tradeoff between end-to-end delay and classical cost.

Outage Probability Based on Relay Selection Method for Multi-Hop Device-to-Device Communication

To improve the connectivity of device-to-device(D2D)communication between delay-assisted vehicles,a multi-hop D2D relay selection strategy based on outage probability is proposed.The algorithm firstly clusters the relay users based on the distance of D2D users,and determines the number of one-hop relay nodes through the outage probability threshold.Two-hop relay nodes directly select the same number of relays as one-hop relay nodes according to the descending order of signal noise ratio(SNR)to establish a square matrix.The Hungarian algorithm is used to assign the relay nodes of two clusters to complete the inter relay communication.Finally,the information is sent to the D2D receiver by combining technology.The simulation results show that this algorithm can reduce the cost of relay probing process and the outage probability of system in multi-hop D2D relay communication.

An ISS-OFDM based adaptive filtering mechanism for interference suppression in wireless multi-hop communication network

The negative impact on communication performance in wireless multi-hop communication net-work caused by limited bandwidth,high bit eror rate （BER）,fading,noise and interference is alleviated by an adaptive filtering game based on frequency subbands selection and predetemined threshold.Such threshold is being obtained in Gaussian and multipath fading channel according to the frequency-matching principle and BER performance.The dynamic selection of subbands will obtain high use efficiency without the help of frequency hopping,and propound a new thought to improve band limited communication for wireless multi-hop communication network.The effectiveness of the adaptive filtering method has been verified by interleaving spread spectrum orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （ISS-OFDM） in different interference conditions,and the simulating results based on network simulator 2 （NS2） indicate that system BER can be improved greatly.

Distributed wireless quantum communication networks with partially entangled pairs

Wireless quantum communication networks transfer quantum state by teleportation. Existing research focuses on maximal entangled pairs. In this paper, we analyse the distributed wireless quantum communication networks with partially entangled pairs. A quantum routing scheme with multi-hop teleportation is proposed. With the proposed scheme, is not necessary for the quantum path to be consistent with the classical path. The quantum path and its associated classical path are established in a distributed way. Direct multi-hop teleportation is conducted on the selected path to transfer a quantum state from the source to the destination. Based on the feature of multi-hop teleportation using partially entangled pairs, if the node number of the quantum path is even, the destination node will add another teleportation at itself. We simulated the performance of distributed wireless quantum communication networks with a partially entangled state. The probability of transferring the quantum state successfully is statistically analyzed. Our work shows that multi-hop teleportation on distributed wireless quantum networks with partially entangled pairs is feasible.

The wholecomputational procedure of the algorithm is illustrated with a typical example.

HIHO Decoding Algorithms of Turbo Product Codes for High Rate Optical Communications

This paper presents a new Hard-Input Hard-Output (HIHO) iterative decoding algorithm for Turbo Product Codes (TPC), and especially describes the BCH-TPC codes aiming to alleviate error propagation and lower error floor. This algorithm mainly emp hasizes a decision mechanism for bit-flips, which thoroughly evaluates four different aspects of the decoding process, properly weighs and combines their respective reliability measures, and then employs the combined measure to make a judgment with regard to whether any particular bit should be flipped or not. Simulations result in a very steep Bit Error Rate (BER) curve indicating that a high-level net coding gain can be expected with a reasonable complexity. The simplicity and effectiveness of this HIHO decoding algorithm makes it a p romising candidate for the application in future high-speed fiber optical communications.
