The flipped position and value are determined by the symbol flipping metric and the received bit values in the first stage WSF algorithm. If the low- eomplexity WSF algorithm is failed, the second stage FFT-QSPA is activated as a switching strategy. Simulation results show that the proposed hybrid algorithm greatly reduces the computational complexity with the performance close to that of FFT-QSPA.展开更多

There are two possible coupling approaches at the domain interface, one is non-conservative, the other is conservative. The non-conservative coupling approach can preserve optimal order of accuracy and the local conservative error is proved to be upmost third order. As for the conservative coupling approach, accuracy analysis shows the forced conservation strategy at the coupling interface deteriorates the accuracy locally to first- order accuracy at the 'coupling cell'. A numerical experiments of numerical stability is also presented for the non-conservative and conservative coupling approaches. Several numerical results are presented to verify the theoretical analysis results and demonstrate the performance of the hybrid DG/WENO-FD solver.展开更多
