The rapid development of marine science and technology, coupled with the growing needs of offshore operations, underscores the significance of studying offshore communication networks. This study addressed the communication and perception challenges posed by the complexity and variability of the marine environment and the mobility of ships, aiming to improve the performance of offshore operations. Through the construction of an integrated ship-based station model at the power level and comprehensive data validation and simulation analyses, this study revealed a linear relationship between the signal-to-noise ratio (SCNR) and the probability of detection, indicating that the probability of detection positively correlated with the SCNR. In practical multi-user scenarios, the shipborne ISAC base station needed to make a trade-off between communication and sensing functions to meet different SCNR requirements. By optimising the trajectory and power allocation of shipborne ISAC, this study successfully improved the communication rate and sensing performance, which further enhances the efficiency and safety of marine operations. The findings of this study were of great significance to the advancement of marine science and technology, laying a solid foundation for further research and the application of maritime communication networks.

Integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) is one of the key technologies in the sixth-generation (6G) wireless communication network. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are essential for their flexible deployment, wide coverage, and high mobility. However, these attributes pose challenges for channel research. This paper presents a novel physical communication model for 6G ISAC in multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) air-to-ground wireless channels. Here, the direct propagation link between the UAV transmitter and vehicle receiver is obstructed by buildings, hindering successful signal transmission. To address this, we propose employing double intelligent reflecting surfaces (IRSs) to assist signal transmission, forming the propagation links with either double or single IRSs along with the non-line-of-sight (NLoS) path. We investigate the complex channel impulse responses (CIRs) of these links considering multipath effects and derive the complete channel matrix. Additionally, we analyze the statistical properties of the communication model across various parameters. Leveraging these derivations, we illustrate the propagation characteristics of the MIMO UAV-to-vehicle communication model empowered by double IRSs. Simulation results highlight the superior channel characteristics of double- IRSs compared to single-IRSs, underscoring the significance of integrating double IRSs into the UAV-to-vehicle channel model.
综合传感与通信（ISAC）是第六代（6G）无线通信网络的关键技术之一。无人飞行器（UAV）因其部署灵活、覆盖范围广和高机动性而至关重要。然而，这些特性给信道研究带来了挑战。本文针对多输入多输出（MIMO）空对地无线信道中的 6G ISAC 提出了一种新型物理通信模型。在这种情况下，无人机发射器和飞行器接收器之间的直接传播链路会受到建筑物的阻挡，从而阻碍信号的成功传输。为解决这一问题，我们建议采用双智能反射面（IRS）来辅助信号传输，通过双或单 IRS 与非视线（NLoS）路径形成传播链路。考虑到多径效应，我们研究了这些链路的复杂信道脉冲响应（CIR），并推导出完整的信道矩阵。此外，我们还分析了不同参数下通信模型的统计特性。利用这些推导，我们说明了由双 IRS 支持的 MIMO 无人机到车辆通信模型的传播特性。仿真结果表明，与单IRS相比，双IRS具有更优越的信道特性，强调了将双IRS集成到无人机到车辆信道模型中的重要性。

In view of the fact that electromagnetic maps can be used to depict the distribution of electromagnetic spectrum in detail, and to support electromagnetic spectrum analysis and management, as well as network design and optimization, this paper studies an intelligent reconstruction algorithm of electromagnetic map based on propagation model in the application field scenario of integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) technology. Firstly, the propagation model is used to model the variogram function, and then the improved particle swarm optimization algorithm is used to solve the expression of the variogram function, and the semi-variovariation values of the points to be estimated and the sampling points are obtained according to the variogram function. Then, the spatial interpolation method combined with the semi-variant value is used to estimate the estimated points, and finally the reconstructed electromagnetic map is obtained. Experimental simulation and comparison prove the effectiveness and advancement of the proposed algorithm.

Integrated wireless communications and radar detections have so far mainly relied on phased-array (PA) antennas with only considering the beampatterns in angle domain. In this paper, by taking advantage of frequency diverse array (FDA), which can generate beampatterns in angle, range and time domains, we propose a novel finite orthogonal random FDA, whose beampatterns feature periodical pulses in time or range domain. By applying this technology into radar and communications (RadComm) systems, a compact dual-functional structure of joint PA and FDA is designed. With the proposed novel structure, the common information, such as channel status information and direction-of-arrival can be easily shared for both PA communications and FDA radar. Based on the built joint PA and FDA channel models, different beamformer designs are proposed by jointly optimizing the signal-to-interference- noises of the communications and radar. In addition, we robustify the proposed method by considering the case of channel estimation imprecision. Numerical simulations demonstrate the performances of both communications and the radar with the proposed approaches are over than that of the conventional PA RadComm systems.
迄今为止，集成无线通信和雷达探测主要依赖相控阵（PA）天线，只考虑角度域的信号。在本文中，我们利用频率多样化阵列（FDA）可在角度、范围和时间域生成信号的优势，提出了一种新型有限正交随机 FDA，其信号在时间域或范围域具有周期性脉冲特征。通过将这一技术应用于雷达和通信（RadComm）系统，我们设计出了一种由功率放大器和 FDA 共同组成的紧凑型双功能结构。利用所提出的新型结构，PA 通信和 FDA 雷达可以轻松共享共同信息，如信道状态信息和到达方向信息。根据建立的联合 PA 和 FDA 信道模型，通过联合优化通信和雷达的信噪比，提出了不同的波束成形器设计。此外，我们还考虑了信道估计不精确的情况，对所提出的方法进行了稳健化处理。数值模拟表明，采用所提方法的通信和雷达性能均优于传统的 PA RadComm 系统。

To fulfill the connectivity demands in massive machine-type communications (mMTC), this paper investigates a generalized multi-user sparse superposition transmission (GMUSST) technology based on position index modulation. Due to the high computation complexity of maximum likelihood (ML) multi-user detection, a low complexity multi-path successive interference cancellation (MSIC) multi-user detector is introduced to achieve near-ML detector's block error ratio (BLER) performance. Furthermore, considering that each user is only concerned with their own transmitted signal in the downlink GMUSST system, we propose a minimum mean square error-based SIC (MMSE-SIC) detector, which can directly extract the user's transmission signal from the received superimposed signal of multiple users and is verified compared with MSIC detector. Simulation results show that the GMUSST can achieve better transmission reliability than the existing polar coded sparse code multiple access (PC-SCMA) in the short packet communication scenarios. Especially with the hybrid automatic repeat request mechanism, GMUSST requires fewer retransmissions to achieve the same BLER performance compared to PC-SCMA.

Full-duplex technology can improve bandwidth and energy efficiency but has serious self-interference. In this paper, we introduce a novel full-duplex communication scheme that leverages the Doppler effect. By rotating the circular antenna array, the Doppler frequency shift is introduced into the received uplink (UL) signal, and the UL signal can be separated from the downlink (DL) signal in the frequency domain, thus eliminating self-interference. In order to maximize the interference-free bandwidth, an antenna switching criterion to maximum frequency offset interval is proposed for antenna switching control. Moreover, an antenna switching module based on the above criterion and a Doppler frequency shift compensation module are designed. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme can effectively avoid interference between UL and DL signals and achieves a substantial capacity improvement compared to conventional systems.

Most existing work on analyzing the performance of a random ensemble of low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes assumes that the degree distributions of the two ends of a randomly selected edge are independent. In this paper, we go one step further by considering ensembles of LDPC codes with degree-degree correlations. We propose two methods to construct such an ensemble of degree-degree correlated LDPC codes and derive a system of density evolution equations for these codes over a binary erasure channel (BEC). By conducting extensive numerical experiments, we demonstrate how the degree-degree correlation affects the performance of LDPC codes. Our numerical results suggest that LDPC codes with negative degree-degree correlation could enhance the maximum tolerable erasure probability. Moreover, increasing the negative degree-degree correlation could facilitate better unequal error protection (UEP) design. In the final part of our extension efforts, we extend degree-degree correlated LDPC codes to multi-edge type LDPC codes and leverage these to construct convolutional LDPC codes.

We consider a two-ray ground reflection scenario with unknown distance between transmitter and receiver. By utilizing two frequencies in parallel, we can mitigate possible destructive interference and ensure ultra-reliability with only very limited knowledge at the transmitter. In order to achieve this ultra-reliability, we optimize the frequency spacing such that the worst-case receive power is maximized. Additionally, we provide an algorithm to calculate the optimal frequency spacing. Besides the receive power, we also analyze the achievable rate and outage probability. It is shown that the frequency diversity scheme achieves a significant improvement in terms of reliability over using a single frequency. In particular, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach by a numerical simulation of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flying above flat terrain.
