An improved linear dispersion codes transmission scheme based on OSIC detection

Linear dispersion codes (LDCs) were originally designed based on maximum likelihood detection. They do not have good performance when using ordered successive interference cancellation (OSIC) detection. In this paper,we propose a new improved linear dispersion codes transmission scheme to combat performance loss of original LDCs when using OSIC detection. We introduce an interleaver to each data substream transmitted over different antennas after LDCs encoder. Furthermore,a new computer search criterion for a linear transformation matrix is also proposed. New search criterion is to minimize the symbol error rate based on OSIC detection. Computer simulations show that the performance of proposed LDCs transmission scheme is better than the original LDCs.

Linear Dispersion Orthogonal Space-Time Block Codes

A new architecture of space-time codes as a combination of orthogonal space-time block codes （OSTBC） and linear dispersion codes （LDC） is proposed in order to improve the bit error rate（BER） performance of OSTBC.The scheme proposed is named linear dispersion orthogonal space-time block codes （LDOSTBC）.In LDOSTBC scheme,firstly,the data is coded into LDC codewords.Then,the coded LDC substreams are coded into OSTBC codewords again.The decoding algorithm of LDOSTBC combines linear decoding of OSTBC and ML decoding or suboptimum detection algorithms of LDC.Compared with OSTBC scheme when the rate of LDC is MtR,the performance of LDOSTBC scheme can be improved without decreasing the data rate,where Mt is the number of transmit antennas and R is the spectral efficiency of the modulation constellation.If some rate penalty is allowed,when the rate of LDC is less than MtR the performance of LDOSTBC can be improved further.

Asynchronous cooperative transmission scheme using linear dispersion code

The cooperative diversity schemes can effectively create a virtual antenna array for path fading combating multiin wireless channels. However, a lot of cooperative diversity schemes require perfect synchronization which is, in practice, difficult and even impossible to be realized. In this paper, we propose an asynchronous cooperative diversity scheme based on the linear dispersion code （LDC）. By adding the zero padding （ZP） between linear dispersion codewords, our scheme mitigates the effect of asynchronism effectively. The length of ZP is decided by relative timing errors between different relays. Besides, an easy decoding method of our scheme is given in this paper by restructuring the stacked channel matrix.

A unified result for variable-rate linear network coding

Fong et al.analyzed variable-rate linear network coding for linear broadcast.However,the authors didn't investigate it for the other three types of linear network codes.In this paper,by simple and clear proofs,it is found that there are similar results for variable-rate linear generic and linear dispersion if the field size is large enough.It means that linear generics and linear dispersions of different dimensions can be implemented on the same network,while each non-source node is required to store only one copy of the local encoding kernel within a session.Moreover,an example is given to show that there isn't a similar result for linear multicast.

Fully Nonlinear Boussinesq-Type Equations with Optimized Parameters for Water Wave Propagation

For simulating water wave propagation in coastal areas, various Boussinesq-type equations with improved properties in intermediate or deep water have been presented in the past several decades. How to choose proper Boussinesq-type equations has been a practical problem for engineers. In this paper, approaches of improving the characteristics of the equations, i.e. linear dispersion, shoaling gradient and nonlinearity, are reviewed and the advantages and disadvantages of several different Boussinesq-type equations are compared for the applications of these Boussinesq-type equations in coastal engineering with relatively large sea areas. Then for improving the properties of Boussinesq-type equations, a new set of fully nonlinear Boussinseq-type equations with modified representative velocity are derived, which can be used for better linear dispersion and nonlinearity. Based on the method of minimizing the overall error in different ranges of applications, sets of parameters are determined with optimized linear dispersion, linear shoaling and nonlinearity, respectively. Finally, a test example is given for validating the results of this study. Both results show that the equations with optimized parameters display better characteristics than the ones obtained by matching with pad6 approximation.

PDRK:A General Kinetic Dispersion Relation Solver for Magnetized Plasma

A general,fast,and effective approach is developed for numerical calculation of kinetic plasma linear dispersion relations.The plasma dispersion function is approximated by J-pole expansion.Subsequently,the dispersion relation is transformed to a standard matrix eigenvalue problem of an equivalent linear system.Numerical solutions for the least damped or fastest growing modes using an 8-pole expansion are generally accurate;more strongly damped modes are less accurate,but are less likely to be of physical interest.In contrast to conventional approaches,such as Newton＇s iterative method,this approach can give either all the solutions in the system or a few solutions around the initial guess.It is also free from convergence problems.The approach is demonstrated for electrostatic dispersion equations with one-dimensional and twodimensional wavevectors,and for electromagnetic kinetic magnetized plasma dispersion relation for bi-Maxwellian distribution with relative parallel velocity flows between species.

Scalings for the Alfvén-cyclotron instability in a bi-kappa plasma

The particle velocity distribution in space plasma usually exhibits a non-Maxwellian high-energy tail that can be well modeled by kappa distributions.In this study,we focus on the growth rates of the Alfvén-cyclotron instability driven by ion temperature anisotropy in a kappa plasma.By solving the kinetic linear dispersion equation,we explore the sensitivity of growth rates to the spectral indexκof a bi-kappa distribution under different plasma conditions,including a variety of plasma beta β_(hp) and temperature anisotropy A_(hp) values of hot protons.Furthermore,a concise,analytic scaling formula is derived that relates the dimensionless maximum growth rate to three independent variables:the spectral index and the plasma beta and temperature anisotropy of hot protons.Our results show that as theκ-value increases,the instability bandwidth narrows and the maximum growth rate increases significantly.For higherβ_(hp)and A_(hp)′the maximum instability undergoes a sharp increase as well.When our fits of dimensionless maximum growth rates are compared with solutions to kinetic linear dispersion theory,the results generally exhibit good agreement between them.Especially under the circumstances of largeκ-values and highβ_(hp)and A_(hp)′the scalings of maximum growth rates primarily accurately model the numerical solutions.Our analytic expressions can readily be used in large-scale models of the Earth’s magnetosphere to understand wave generation due to the Alfvén-cyclotron instability.

Ferromagnetic coupling in a two-dimensional Cairo pentagonal Ni_(2)(TCNQ)_(2) lattice

Magnetism has revolutionized important technologies,and continues to bring forth new phenomena in emergent materials and reduced dimensions.Here,using first-principles calculations,we demonstrate that the already-synthesized two-dimensional(2D)Ni-tetracyanoquinodimethane(Ni_(2)(TCNQ)_(2))lattice is a stable ferromagnetism material with multiple spin-polarized Dirac cones.The conical bands in proximity of the Fermi level can be tuned by external tensile strain and show the fourfold degenerate electronic states at the critical tensile strain of~2.35%,whose energy dispersion is consistent with 2D Cairo pentagonal lattice.In addition,spin-orbital coupling can open a band gap at the Dirac point of A,leading to topologically nontrivial electronic states characterized by the non-zero Chern number and the edge states of nanoribbon.Our results offer versatile platforms for the realization of massless spintronics with full-spin polarization in 2D Cairo pentagonal Ni_(2)(TCNQ)_(2) Lattice.
