Based on dual connectivity(DC) introduced in LTE-Advanced R12, DL/UL decouple access scheme has been proposed, which is especially suitable for heterogeneous networks(Het Nets). This paper is the pioneer to take the DL/UL decouple access scheme into consideration and develop a novel resource allocation algorithm in a two-tier Het Net to improve the total system throughput in the UL and ease the load imbalance between macro base stations(MBSs) and pico base stations(PBSs). A model is formulated as a nonlinear integer programming, and the proposed algorithm is a sub-optimal algorithm based on the graph theory. First, an undirected and weighted interference graph is obtained. Next, the users are grouped to let users with large mutual interferences to be assigned to different clusters. Then, the users in different clusters are allocated to different resource blocks(RBs) by using the Hungarian algorithm. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can provide great promotions for both the total system throughput and the average cell edge user throughput and successfully ease the load imbalance between MBSs and PBSs.展开更多

Spectrally efficient modulation formats （QAM-OFDM）, advanced digital signal processing, pre- and post- equalization are adopted to compensate the severe frequency response of indoor channel. In this system, we utilize red-green-blue Light emitting diodes （LEDs）, of which each color can be used to carry different signals. For downlink, the low frequencies of each color are used while for uplink, the high frequencies are used. The overall data rate of downlink and uplink are 1.15-Gb/s and 300-Mb/s. The bit error ratios （BERs） for all channels after 0.7 m indoor delivery are below pre-forward- error-correction （pre-FEC） threshold of 3.8×10-3. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest data rate in bi-directional visible light communication system.展开更多

Among all kinds of security tech- niques, provenance tracing is regarded as an important approach to attack investigation, as it discloses the root cause, the attacking path, and the results of attacks. However, existing techniques either suffer from the limitation of only focusing on the log type, or are high- ly susceptible to attacks, which hinder their applications in investigating APT attacks. We present CAPT, a context-aware provenance tracing system that leverages the advantages of virtualization technologies to transparently collect system events and network events out of the target machine, and processes them in the specific host which introduces no space cost to the target. CAPT utilizes the contexts of collected events to bridge the gap between them, and provides a panoramic view to the attack investigation. Our evaluation results show that CAPT achieves the efi＇ective prov- enance tracing to the attack cases, and it only produces 0.21 MB overhead in 8 hours. With our newly-developed technology, we keep the run-time overhead averages less than 4%.展开更多
