Analysis of handoff in distributed mobile communications system based on remote antenna unit selection

A remote antenna unit （RAU） selection model is presented, and two kinds of handoffs, intra-cell handoff （HO） and inter-cell HO, are defined in distributed mobile communications systems （DAS）. After that, an inter-cell HO model is proposed, in which the average power of the active set （AS） is used to predict the position of the mobile station （MS）. The total power of the AS and the handoff set （HOS） are utilized to determine whether an inter-cell HO is necessary. Furthermore, the relationship between HO parameters and performance metrics is studied in detail based on RAU selection. Simulation results show that both the intra-cell HO and the inter-cell HO can achieve oerfect performance by aoprooriate settings of HO parameters.

Remote Access Communications Security: Analysis of User Authentication Roles in Organizations

Remote access is a means of accessing resources outside one’s immediate physical location. This has made employee mobility more effective and productive for most organizations. Remote access can be achieved via various channels of remote communication, the most common being Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). The demand for remote access is on the rise, especially during the Covid-19 pandemic, and will continue to increase as most organizations are re-structuring to make telecommuting a permanent part of their mode of operation. Employee mobility, while presenting organizations with some advantages, comes with the associated risk of exposing corporate cyber assets to attackers. The remote user and the remote connectivity technology present some vulnerabilities which can be exploited by any threat agent to violate the confidentiality, integrity and availability (CIA) dimensions of these cyber assets. So, how are users and remote devices authenticated? To what extent is the established connection secured? With employee mobility on the rise, it is necessary to analyze the user authentication role since the mobile employee is not under the monitoring radar of the organization, and the environment from which the mobile employee connects may be vulnerable. In this study, an experiment was setup to ascertain the user authentication roles. The experiment showed the process of 2FA in user authentication and it proved to be an effective means of improving user authentication during remote access. This was depicted via the use of what the user has (mobile phone/soft-token) as a second factor in addition to what the user knows, i.e. password. This authentication method overcomes the security weaknesses inherent in single-factor user authentication via the use of password only. However, the results also showed that though 2FA user authentication ensures security, the remote devices could exhibit further vulnerabilities and pose serious risks to the organization. Thus, a varied implementation was recommended to further enhance the security of remote access communication with regards to the remote user authentication.

The results provide the theoretical and practical references for the manufacture of remote welding robot and the quality of remote welding.

Classical Communication Cost and Probabilistic Remote Preparation of Four-Particle Entangled W State

We present a scheme for probabilistic remote preparation of the four-particle entangled W state by using four partial entangled two-particle states as the quantum channel. In this scheme, if Alice （sender） performs four-particle projective measurements and Bob （receiver） adopts some appropriate unitary operation, the remote state preparation can be successfully realized with certain probability. The classical communication cost is also calculated. However, the success probability of preparation can be increased to 1 for four kinds of special states.

For decades, the power system was highly centralized. With the growing integration of distributed generations into the system, there is a necessity for bi-directional communication methods to monitor and control the remote assets. The primary objective of this paper is to develop a communication link for monitoring and controlling a grid-connected inverter in a remote location.

The literature survey indicates that LoRa is superior compared to other technologies, but has some security and reliability issues. This paper also presents an encryption algorithm to improve the security of the LoRa link. Local data storage added to the system before transmitting data increases the system reliability. A display at the transmission end is added to improve the user-friendliness of the communication link. A Powerline Communication link is parallelly added to the LoRa link to improve the reliability. Finally, tests are conducted with an actual inverter and the results are presented. The tests show that the developed communication link has improved security and reliability, while its open nature makes it highly scalable and adaptable for employment in other smart grid applications.

To address the issue of imbalanced detection performance and detection speed in current mainstream object detection algorithms for optical remote sensing images,this paper proposes a multi-scale object detection model for remote sensing images on complex backgrounds,called DI-YOLO,based on You Only Look Once v7-tiny(YOLOv7-tiny).Firstly,to enhance the model’s ability to capture irregular-shaped objects and deformation features,as well as to extract high-level semantic information,deformable convolutions are used to replace standard convolutions in the original model.Secondly,a Content Coordination Attention Feature Pyramid Network(CCA-FPN)structure is designed to replace the Neck part of the original model,which can further perceive relationships between different pixels,reduce feature loss in remote sensing images,and improve the overall model’s ability to detect multi-scale objects.Thirdly,an Implicitly Efficient Decoupled Head(IEDH)is proposed to increase the model’s flexibility,making it more adaptable to complex detection tasks in various scenarios.Finally,the Smoothed Intersection over Union(SIoU)loss function replaces the Complete Intersection over Union(CIoU)loss function in the original model,resulting in more accurate prediction of bounding boxes and continuous model optimization.Experimental results on the High-Resolution Remote Sensing Detection(HRRSD)dataset demonstrate that the proposed DI-YOLO model outperforms mainstream target detection algorithms in terms of mean Average Precision(mAP)for optical remote sensing image detection.Furthermore,it achieves Frames Per Second(FPS)of 138.9,meeting fast and accurate detection requirements.
