A Strategy of Signal Detection for Performance Improvement in Clipping Based OFDM System

In this paper,the supervised Deep Neural Network(DNN)based signal detection is analyzed for combating with nonlinear distortions efficiently and improving error performances in clipping based Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing(OFDM)ssystem.One of the main disadvantages for the OFDM is the high Peak to Average Power Ratio(PAPR).The clipping is a simple method for the PAPR reduction.However,an effect of the clipping is nonlinear distortion,and estimations for transmitting symbols are difficult despite a Maximum Likelihood(ML)detection at the receiver.The DNN based online signal detection uses the offline learning model where all weights and biases at fully-connected layers are set to overcome nonlinear distortions by using training data sets.Thus,this paper introduces the required processes for the online signal detection and offline learning,and compares error performances with the ML detection in the clipping-based OFDM systems.In simulation results,the DNN based signal detection has better error performance than the conventional ML detection in multi-path fading wireless channel.The performance improvement is large as the complexity of system is increased such as huge Multiple Input Multiple Output(MIMO)system and high clipping rate.

Complexity Effective Frequency and Sidelink Synchronization Algorithm for LTE Device-to-Device Communication Systems

Device-to-device(D2D)communication is considered as a major challenge in the long term evolution(LTE)network wherein devices directly communicate with each other.One of the key challenges in D2D sidelink is reliable and reduced-complexity synchronization.To address this issue,a computationally efficient sequential detection scheme for integer carrier frequency offset and sidelink identity is proposed in the LTE-D2D system.To perform the frequency offset detection without retrieving the sidelink identity,the conjugate relation between two primary sidelink synchronization sequences is exploited,which facilitates the detection tasks of frequency offset and sidelink identity to be decoupled.It is demonstrated from simulation results that the inherent property of the sidelink synchronization sequences is effectively used for joint detection of frequency offset and sidelink identity with significantly reduced complexity,compared to existing estimation schemes.

Real-Time Anomaly Detection in Packaged Food X-Ray Images Using Supervised Learning

Physical contamination of food occurs when it comes into contact with foreign objects.Foreign objects can be introduced to food at any time during food delivery and packaging and can cause serious concerns such as broken teeth or choking.Therefore,a preventive method that can detect and remove foreign objects in advance is required.Several studies have attempted to detect defective products using deep learning networks.Because it is difficult to obtain foreign object-containing food data from industry,most studies on industrial anomaly detection have used unsupervised learning methods.This paper proposes a new method for real-time anomaly detection in packaged food products using a supervised learning network.In this study,a realistic X-ray image training dataset was constructed by augmenting foreign objects with normal product images in a cut-paste manner.Based on the augmented training dataset,we trained YOLOv4,a real-time object detection network,and detected foreign objects in the test data.We evaluated this method on images of pasta,snacks,pistachios,and red beans under the same conditions.The results show that the normal and defective products were classified with an accuracy of at least 94%for all packaged foods.For detecting foreign objects that are typically difficult to detect using the unsupervised learning and traditional methods,the proposed method achieved high-performance realtime anomaly detection.In addition,to eliminate the loss in high-resolution X-ray images,the false positive rate and accuracy could be lowered to 5%with patch-based training and a new post-processing algorithm.
