To further improve the secrecy rate, a joint optimization scheme for the reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) phase shift and the power allocation is proposed in the untrusted relay (UR) networks assisted by the RIS. The eavesdropping on the UR is interfered by a source-based jamming strategy. Under the constraints of unit modulus and total power, the RIS phase shift, the power allocation between the confidential signal and the jamming signal, and the power allocation between the source node and the UR are jointly optimized to maximize the secrecy rate. The complex multivariable coupling problem is decomposed into three sub-problems, and the non-convexity of the objective function and the constraints is solved with semi-definite relaxation. Simulation results indicate that the secrecy rate is remarkably enhanced with the proposed scheme compared with the equal power allocation scheme, the random phase shift scheme, and the no-RIS scheme.
为了进一步提高保密率,在由可重构智能表面(RIS)辅助的不可信任中继(UR)网络中,提出了可重构智能表面(RIS)相移和功率分配的联合优化方案。对 UR 的窃听受到基于源的干扰策略的干扰。在单位模数和总功率的约束下,对 RIS 相移、保密信号与干扰信号之间的功率分配以及源节点与 UR 之间的功率分配进行了联合优化,以最大限度地提高保密率。复杂的多变量耦合问题被分解为三个子问题,目标函数和约束条件的非凸性通过半有限松弛求解。仿真结果表明,与等功率分配方案、随机相移方案和无 RIS 方案相比,拟议方案的保密率显著提高。

In this article, a single-layer symmetrical full-port quasi-absorptive filtering phase shifter is presented. The proposed phase shifter is composed of a main quasi-absorptive filtering branch, a reference quasi-absorptive filtering branch, and two delay lines. The proposed phase shifter achieves both phase controlling function and quasi-absorptive filtering function for the first time. Each quasi-absorptive filtering branch can realize the quasi-absorptive filtering function. Meanwhile, the constant phase shift can be obtained by combining the two quasi-absorptive filtering branches and the two delay lines. The design formulas can be derived from the even- and odd-mode network analysis, and then two quasi-absorptive filtering phase shifters can be devised easily and quickly. For verification, a 90° quasi-absorptive filtering phase shifter, which is critical for circularly polarized antenna systems, is simulated, manufactured, and measured.

In this paper, a novel traffic-aware cooperative cognitive radio network that can enable device-to-device (D2D) communications in cellular system is proposed and investigated. By providing relay cooperation to cellular transmission, D2D users can realize their own two-way communication in the licensed spectrum. Unlike most existing works, in the proposed network, both wireless-powered D2D users can harvest energy via radio-frequency signals received from basic station (BS) through a hybrid protocol which can adaptively utilize both time-switching and powersplitting techniques. Specifically, D2D users perform decode-and-forward operation to transmit signals, and mobile user (MU) employs a selection combining technique. In addition, the performance of both D2D system and cellular system in the proposed network is evaluated by deriving the expressions of their exact outage probability and throughput. Numerical and simulation results validate correctness of derivations and reveal the influence of various system parameters of the proposed network.

Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS), fog computing, and Cell-Free (CF) network architecture are three promising technologies for application to the Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC) scenario in 6G mobile communication systems. This paper considers a RIS-assisted FogRadio Access Network (Fog-RAN) architecture where a) the repulsively distributed Fog-Access Points (F-APs) communicate in a CF manner to suppress inter-cell interference, b) RISs are introduced into the CF network to avoid shadowing and enhance the system performance, and c) fog computing evolved as cloud services providers at the edge of the network and an enabler for constructing a multi-layer computing power RAN. Then, we derive and validate the integral form of the maximum F-AP offloading probability and Successful Delivery Probability (SDP) of this RIS-assisted Fog-RAN over composite Fisher-Snedecor F fading, where the spatial effects are reconsidered with the assumption that the F-APs are modelled as a Beta Ginibre Point Process (β-GPP). The numeric and simulation results indicate that for the investigated RIS-assisted Fog-RAN, the β-GPP-based deployment of F-APs can increase maximum of 8% of the SDP within the repulsion-effective range, compared with the Matern Cluster Process (MCP)-based ones. Also, deploying more RISs per F-AP offers more significant SDP improvements.

Physical-layer security issues in wireless systems have attracted great attention. In this paper, we investigate the spectrum anti-jamming (AJ) problem for data transmissions between devices. Considering fast-changing physical-layer jamming attacks in the time/frequency domain, frequency resources have to be configured for devices in advance with unknown jamming patterns (i.e. the time-frequency distribution of the jamming signals) to avoid jamming signals emitted by malicious devices. This process can be formulated as a Markov decision process and solved by reinforcement learning (RL). Unfortunately, state-of-the-art RL methods may put pressure on the system which has limited computing resources. As a result, we propose a novel RL, by integrating the asynchronous advantage actor-critic (A3C) approach with the kernel method to learn a flexible frequency pre-configuration policy. Moreover, in the presence of time-varying jamming patterns, the traditional AJ strategy can not adapt to the dynamic interference strategy. To handle this issue, we design a kernel-based feature transfer learning method to adjust the structure of the policy function online. Simulation results reveal that our proposed approach can significantly outperform various baselines, in terms of the average normalized throughput and the convergence speed of policy learning.
无线系统中的物理层安全问题已引起人们的极大关注。本文研究了设备间数据传输的频谱抗干扰(AJ)问题。考虑到时域/频域中快速变化的物理层干扰攻击,在未知干扰模式(即干扰信号的时频分布)的情况下,必须提前为设备配置频率资源,以避免恶意设备发射干扰信号。这一过程可表述为马尔可夫决策过程,并通过强化学习(RL)加以解决。遗憾的是,最先进的 RL 方法可能会对计算资源有限的系统造成压力。因此,我们提出了一种新颖的强化学习方法,将异步优势行动者批判(A3C)方法与内核方法相结合,学习灵活的频率预配置策略。此外,在存在时变干扰模式的情况下,传统的 AJ 策略无法适应动态干扰策略。为了解决这个问题,我们设计了一种基于内核的特征转移学习方法来在线调整策略函数的结构。仿真结果表明,我们提出的方法在平均归一化吞吐量和策略学习收敛速度方面都明显优于各种基线方法。

Generally, due to the limitation of the dimension of the array aperture, linear arrays cannot achieve two-dimensional (2D) direction of arrival (DOA) estimation. But the emergence of array motion provides a chance for that. In this paper, a generalized motion scheme and a novel method of 2D DOA estimation are proposed by exploring the linear array motion. To be specific, the linear arrays are controlled to move along an arbitrary direction at a constant velocity and snap per fixed time delay. All the received signals are processed to synthesize the comprehensive observation vector for an extended 2D virtual aperture. Subsequently, since most of 2D DOA estimation methods are not universal to our proposed motion scheme and the reduced-dimensional (RD) method fails to handle the case of the coupled parameters, a decoupled reduced-complexity multiple signals classification (DRC MUSIC) algorithm is designed specifically. Simulation results demonstrate that: a) our proposed scheme can achieve underdetermined 2D DOA estimation just by the linear arrays; b) our designed DRC MUSIC algorithm has the good properties of high accuracy and low complexity; c) our proposed motion scheme with the DRC method has better universality in the motion direction.

In the field of speech bandwidth extension, it is difficult to achieve high speech quality based on the shallow statistical model method. Although the application of deep learning has greatly improved the extended speech quality, the high model complexity makes it infeasible to run on the client. In order to tackle these issues, this paper proposes an end-to-end speech bandwidth extension method based on a temporal convolutional neural network, which greatly reduces the complexity of the model. In addition, a new time-frequency loss function is designed to enable narrowband speech to acquire a more accurate wideband mapping in the time domain and the frequency domain. The experimental results show that the reconstructed wideband speech generated by the proposed method is superior to the traditional heuristic rule based approaches and the conventional neural network methods for both subjective and objective evaluation.

The sixth generation (6G) of mobile communication system is witnessing a new paradigm shift, i.e., integrated sensing-communication system. A comprehensive dataset is a prerequisite for 6G integrated sensing-communication research. This paper develops a novel simulation dataset, named M 3 SC, for mixed multi-modal (MMM) sensing-communication integration, and the generation framework of the M 3 SC dataset is further given. To obtain multi-modal sensory data in physical space and communication data in electromagnetic space, we utilize Air- Sim and WaveFarer to collect multi-modal sensory data and exploit Wireless InSite to collect communication data. Furthermore, the in-depth integration and precise alignment of AirSim, WaveFarer, and Wireless InSite are achieved. The M 3 SC dataset covers various weather conditions, multiplex frequency bands, and different times of the day. Currently, the M 3 SC dataset contains 1500 snapshots, including 80 RGB images, 160 depth maps, 80 LiDAR point clouds, 256 sets of mmWave waveforms with 8 radar point clouds, and 72 channel impulse response (CIR) matrices per snapshot, thus totaling 120,000 RGB images, 240,000 depth maps, 120,000 LiDAR point clouds, 384,000 sets of mmWave waveforms with 12,000 radar point clouds, and 108,000 CIR matrices. The data processing result presents the multi-modal sensory information and communication channel statistical properties. Finally, the MMM sensing-communication application, which can be supported by the M 3 SC dataset, is discussed.

Underwater magnetic induction (MI)-assisted acoustic cooperative multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) has been recently proposed as a promising technique for underwater wireless sensor networks (UWSNs). For the more, the energy utilization of energy-constrained sensor nodes is one of the key issues in UWSNs, and it relates to the network lifetime. In this paper, we present an energy-efficient data collection for underwater MI-assisted acoustic cooperative MIMO wireless sensor networks (WSNs), including the formation of cooperative MIMO and relay link establishment. Firstly, the cooperative MIMO is formed by considering its expected transmission range and the energy balance of nodes with it. Particularly, from the perspective of the node's energy consumption, the expected cooperative MIMO size and the selection of master node (MN) are proposed.

For the more, the energy utilization of energy-constrained sensor nodes is one of the key issues in UWSNs, and it relates to the network lifetime. In this paper, we present an energy-efficient data collection for underwater MI-assisted acoustic cooperative MIMO wireless sensor networks (WSNs), including the formation of cooperative MIMO and relay link establishment. Firstly, the cooperative MIMO is formed by considering its expected transmission range and the energy balance of nodes with it. Particularly, from the perspective of the node's energy consumption, the expected cooperative MIMO size and the selection of master node (MN) are proposed. Sequentially, to improve the coverage of the networks and prolong the network lifetime, relay links are established by relay selection algorithm that using matching theory. Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed data collection improves its efficiency, reduces the energy consumption of the master node, improves the networks' coverage, and extends the network lifetime.","PeriodicalId":9814,"journal":{"name":"China Communications","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.1,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"68734703","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
