Semantic segmentation plays a fundamental role in computer vision, underpinning applications such as autonomous driving and scene analysis. Although dual-branch networks have marked advancements in accuracy and processing speed, they falter in the context extraction phase within the low-resolution branch. Traditionally, square pooling is used at this juncture, leading to the oversight of stripe-shaped contextual information. In response, we introduce a novel architecture based on a deep aggregation pyramid, engineered for both real-time processing and precise segmentation. Central to our approach is a pioneering contextual information extractor designed to expand the effective receptive fields and fuse multi-scale context from low-resolution feature maps. Additionally, we have developed a feature fusion module to enhance the integration and differentiation of high-level semantic information across branches. To further refine the fidelity of segmentation, we implement dual deep supervisions within the high-resolution branchs intermediate layer, concentrating on boundary delineation and global features to enrich spatial detail capture. Our comprehensive experimental analysis, conducted on the Cityscapes and CamVid datasets, affirms MSSINets superior performance, showcasing its competitiveness against existing leading methodologies across a variety of scenarios.

Grain is a major source of food, while grain security has been considered as a strategic issue in many countries. Temperature and moisture as the two key properties affect the quality of stored grain. Most existing approaches for sensing these properties are expensive, time-consuming, and are difficult to deploy. In this paper, we design a TagSense system to sense the temperature and moisture level of stored wheat using commodity RFID devices, where tag’s impedance is exploited as a feature for target sensing at a low cost. Since impedance is sensitive to the signal propagation distance and incidence angle, we propose a distance-independent algorithm and an angle-agnostic approach to mitigate the impact of distance and angles on the sensing performance. Our extensive experiment results demonstrate that TagSense can achieve a satisfactory sensing performance at any distance and any angle within the sensing range.
谷物是粮食的主要来源,而谷物安全在许多国家都被视为一个战略问题。温度和水分是影响储藏谷物质量的两个关键属性。现有的感知这些属性的方法大多昂贵、耗时,而且难以部署。在本文中,我们设计了一种 TagSense 系统,利用商品 RFID 设备来感知储存小麦的温度和湿度水平,其中标签的阻抗被用作目标感知的一个特征,而且成本低廉。由于阻抗对信号传播距离和入射角度很敏感,我们提出了一种与距离无关的算法和一种与角度无关的方法,以减轻距离和角度对传感性能的影响。我们的大量实验结果表明,TagSense 可以在感应范围内的任何距离和任何角度实现令人满意的感应性能。

Drone detection plays a key role in various fields, but from the perspective of drones, factors such as the size of the target, interference from different backgrounds, and lighting affect the detection effect, which can easily lead to missed detections and false detections. To address this problem, this paper proposes a small target detection algorithm. First, the hybrid control of attention mechanism and a convolutional module (HCAC) are used to effectively extract contextual details of targets of different scales, directions, and shapes, while relative position encoding is used to associate targets with position information. Secondly, in view of the small size characteristics of small targets, a high-resolution detection branch is introduced, the large target detection head and its redundant network layers are pruned, and a multi-level weighted feature fusion network (MWFN) is used for multi-dimensional fusion. Finally, the WIoU loss is used as a bounding box regression loss, combined with a dynamic non-monotonic focusing mechanism, to evaluate the quality of anchor boxes so that the detector can handle anchor boxes of different qualities, thus improving the overall performance. Experiments were conducted on the UAV aerial photography data set VisDrone2019. The results showed that the accuracy of P increased by 9.0% and MAP by 9.8%, with higher detection results.

In this paper, we present a series of experiments with a 2.4 GHz dual-polarized electronic mode stirring system for mitigating the dense multipath observed in biomedical telemetry within metal animal cages, including automated control over the mode stirring configuration. Four dual-polarized mode stirring antennas establish eight bits of digital control over the mode structure in a 0.2 m3 metal cage volume. With an optimized mode stirring configuration, we observe 26 dB improvement in the worst case one-way path loss across the 2400–2483 MHz band at 2,124 surveyed locations, sampled with a 1 cm grid on the floor of the cage. Using an example Bluetooth Low Energy link budget, we compare three automated mode stirring strategies for re-configuring the mode structure in response to simulated Brownian animal motion within the cage. Without mode stirring, the link budget has margin in only 68% of the surveyed locations, while with mode stirring, the link budget has margin in 99% of the locations in a stationary-animal scenario, and 92% of the animal locations in a moving-animal scenario. Finally, we present a demonstration of the link margin improvement in an actual communication link using a backscatter-based Bluetooth Low Energy implementation.

In the field of urban traffic management, optimising traffic signal control on major arterial road is crucial for reducing congestion and improving overall road efficiency. In this paper, we explore a novel approach to design and implement green wave control for urban arterials using Large Language Models (LLM), such as GPT-4. Our approach combines state-of-the-art LLM with traffic signal control policies, aiming to explore the potential of LLM for application in the field of traffic control. We design a workflow for LLM-driven green wave control generation for urban arterial road traffic signal control as an example. The experiments use SUMO simulation software to construct the traffic signal control problem of the arterial road. We verify that LLM can implement the analysis and solution process of the traffic signal control problem. The traffic signal control policy is generated interactively through natural language, which reduces the data analysis and computation pressure of traffic managers. The experimental results show that the process generates the green wave control of the arterial road that can improve the average speed of the road. The potential application of LLM in the field of traffic control is verified in this work.

Benefiting from advantages such as miniaturization, lightweight design, and cost-effectiveness, 13.56 MHz High Frequency Radio Frequency Identification (HF RFID) and Near Field Communication (NFC) tags have found increasing applications across various fields like biomedical, tracking, and logistics, bringing a lot of convenience to the industries and commercials, as well as decreasing the medical and employment pressure. Nevertheless, the smaller the tag, the less likely it is to be fixed in orientation. As the detection of such tags relies on magnetic coupling, the orientation sensitivity is high, and some nulls of detection are introduced inside the considered volume of interest in practical applications. It is essential to optimize the magnetic field vectorial distribution generated by the NFC reader. This paper uses a combination of two paralleled tuned coils (RLC resonator model) in series to be the RFID/NFC reader coils. In such a system, the currents feeding the coils are in quadrature. The system is made of two-phase coils. Additionally, each coil is composed of two sub-coils placed on opposite surfaces of a cube, for the prototype of this system presented in the paper. CST simulations have been analyzed and a 3D printed cube structure with copper tapes has been realized, to validate the idea experimentally. Detection tests were performed with a commercial HF RFID reader and an ISO15693 NFC tag.
13.56 MHz 高频射频识别(HF RFID)和近场通信(NFC)标签具有小型化、轻量化设计和成本效益高等优点,在生物医学、跟踪和物流等各个领域的应用日益广泛,为工业和商业带来了极大的便利,同时也减轻了医疗和就业压力。然而,标签越小,越不容易固定方向。由于这类标签的检测依赖于磁耦合,因此方向灵敏度很高,在实际应用中,在所考虑的相关体积内会出现一些检测空。因此,必须优化 NFC 阅读器产生的磁场矢量分布。本文使用两个串联的并联调谐线圈(RLC 谐振器模型)组合作为 RFID/NFC 阅读器线圈。在这种系统中,馈入线圈的电流是正交的。该系统由两相线圈组成。此外,每个线圈都由放置在立方体相对表面上的两个子线圈组成,这就是本文介绍的系统原型。我们对 CST 仿真进行了分析,并实现了带有铜带的 3D 打印立方体结构,通过实验验证了这一想法。使用商用高频 RFID 阅读器和 ISO15693 NFC 标签进行了检测测试。

As space information networks become more heterogeneous by integrating various space platforms, layers and operators, new security challenges arise that need proper investigation. Existing works mainly focus on specific solutions but do not provide security models that can address these challenges holistically. This work analyzes the adoption of the Bundle Protocol Security (BPSec) to safeguard these networks. Our work demonstrates the flexibility of this protocol in such heterogeneous scenario. We propose different security models that can be adopted based on traffic conditions and node’s knowledge, resulting in a security model that can evolve and adapt over time. Overall, our study unveils new opportunities associated with BPSec in Delay Tolerant Networks (DTN) environments, encouraging further investigation in this domain.

Developing accurate mathematical or data-driven models for effective controller design under dynamic variable conditions becomes increasingly challenging. For this reason, the concept of a digital twin (DT) as a virtual representation of a physical asset has been introduced as a tool for process modelling, design, and control implementation while providing additional knowledge of the system that can be used to enable awareness capabilities on the asset. However, digital twin models used to be complex, requiring expensive computational times depending on the application to provide the most accurate system representation, limiting its application in edge, embedded, and register transfer level computing domains. Therefore, using reduced-order digital twin models is an alternative to get DT closer to the physical asset. Considering these challenges, we propose a reduced-order FPGA-based digital twin implementation that directly sources data from the real system, operates in parallel with the virtual system, and enables awareness mechanisms to improve the system’s operation. This setup removes large data transfers, cloud interfaces and expensive computational times deriving into a faster and more efficient DT. To illustrate the capabilities of this embedded digital twin, we present a case study focused on monitoring a power converter. The study involves establishing and enforcing a safe operating area (SOA) for the power converter, implementing error awareness mechanisms, and enabling machine learning models to predict converter load conditions and fault events detection. Thus, we aim to showcase the effectiveness of our proposed FPGA-based digital twin approach in addressing real-time control challenges towards smart control engineering.

For this reason, the concept of a digital twin (DT) as a virtual representation of a physical asset has been introduced as a tool for process modelling, design, and control implementation while providing additional knowledge of the system that can be used to enable awareness capabilities on the asset. However, digital twin models used to be complex, requiring expensive computational times depending on the application to provide the most accurate system representation, limiting its application in edge, embedded, and register transfer level computing domains. Therefore, using reduced-order digital twin models is an alternative to get DT closer to the physical asset. Considering these challenges, we propose a reduced-order FPGA-based digital twin implementation that directly sources data from the real system, operates in parallel with the virtual system, and enables awareness mechanisms to improve the system’s operation. This setup removes large data transfers, cloud interfaces and expensive computational times deriving into a faster and more efficient DT. To illustrate the capabilities of this embedded digital twin, we present a case study focused on monitoring a power converter.
