Optical SDMA for applying compressive sensing in WSN

In order to apply compressive sensing in wireless sensor network, inside the nodes cluster classified by the spatial correlation, we propose that a cluster head adopts free space optical communication with space division multiple access, and a sensor node uses a modulating retro-reflector for communication. Thus while a random sampling matrix is used to guide the establishment of links between head cluster and sensor nodes, the random linear projection is accomplished. To establish multiple links at the same time, an optical space division multiple access antenna is designed. It works in fixed beams switching mode and consists of optic lens with a large field of view（FOV）, fiber array on the focal plane which is used to realize virtual channels segmentation, direction of arrival sensor, optical matrix switch and controller. Based on the angles of nodes＇ laser beams, by dynamically changing the route, optical matrix switch actualizes the multi-beam full duplex tracking receiving and transmission. Due to the structure of fiber array, there will be several fade zones both in the focal plane and in lens＇ FOV. In order to lower the impact of fade zones and harmonize multibeam, a fiber array adjustment is designed. By theoretical, simulated and experimental study, the antenna＇s qualitative feasibility is validated.

Analysis of Crosstalk Induced by Optical Cross-Connection in Multiwavelength Networks

In this paper, Optical Cross-Connection (OXC) induced crosstalk has been carefully analyzed for multiwavelength all-optical networks. Formulae are derived for calculating the crosstalk power of homowavelength crosstalk and the total crosstalk at the receiver end. The results show that the optical switches induced crosstalk dominates over other crosstalk components of OXC, and the accumulated homowavelength crosstalk increases almost linearly with the increasing of the OXC number. At the receiver end , the heterowavelength crosstalk induced by the receiver optical filter has the same order as that of homowavelength crosstalk of OXC. The results of different optical components model are also discussed.

Dynamic task scheduling modeling in unstructured heterogeneous multiprocessor systems

An algorithm is proposed for scheduling dependent tasks in time-varying heterogeneous multiprocessor systems, in which computational power and links between processors are allowed to change over time. Link contention is considered in the multiprocessor scheduling problem. A linear switching-state space-modeling paradigm is introduced to enable theoretical analysis from a system engineering perspective. Theoretical analysis of this model shows its robustness against changes in processing power and link failure. The proposed algorithm uses a fuzzy decision-making procedure to handle changes in the multiprocessor system. The efficiency of the proposed algorithm is illustrated by several random experiments and comparison against a recent benchmark approach. The results show up to 18% average improvement in makespan, especially for larger scale systems.
