A lightweight cell switching and traffic offloading scheme for energy optimization in ultra-dense heterogeneous networks

One of the major capacity boosters for 5G networks is the deployment of ultra-dense heterogeneous networks (UDHNs). However, this deployment results in a tremendous increase in the energy consumption of the network due to the large number of base stations (BSs) involved. In addition to enhanced capacity, 5G networks must also be energy efficient for it to be economically viable and environmentally friendly. Dynamic cell switching is a very common way of reducing the total energy consumption of the network, but most of the proposed methods are computationally demanding, which makes them unsuitable for application in ultra-dense network deployment with massive number of BSs. To tackle this problem, we propose a lightweight cell switching scheme also known as Threshold-based Hybrid cEll swItching Scheme (THESIS) for energy optimization in UDHNs. The developed approach combines the benefits of clustering and exhaustive search (ES) algorithm to produce a solution whose optimality is close to that of the ES (which is guaranteed to be optimal), but is computationally more efficient than ES and as such can be applied for cell switching in real networks even when their dimension is large. The performance evaluation shows that THESIS significantly reduces the energy consumption of the UDHN and can reduce the complexity of finding a near-optimal solution from exponential to polynomial complexity.

Binary neutron stars gravitational wave detection based on wavelet packet analysis and convolutional neural networks

This work investigates the detection of binary neutron stars gravitational wave based on convolutional neural network(CNN).To promote the detection performance and efficiency,we proposed a scheme based on wavelet packet(WP)decomposition and CNN.The WP decomposition is a time-frequency method and can enhance the discriminant features between gravitational wave signal and noise before detection.The CNN conducts the gravitational wave detection by learning a function mapping relation from the data under being processed to the space of detection results.This function-mapping-relation style detection scheme can detection efficiency significantly.In this work,instrument effects are con-sidered,and the noise are computed from a power spectral density(PSD)equivalent to the Advanced LIGO design sensitivity.The quantitative evaluations and comparisons with the state-of-art method matched filtering show the excellent performances for BNS gravitational wave detection.On efficiency,the current experiments show that this WP-CNN-based scheme is more than 960 times faster than the matched filtering.     

Determination of cobalt ion based on polyethyleneimine modified silver nanoclustersEI北大核心CSCD

PolyethyleneiminePEImodified silver nanoclustersAg NCswere synthesized through chemical reduction method by using PEI as stabilizerAgNO3 as silve source and ascorbic acid as reducing agentand it was applied to the detection of cobalt ions. It was found that the fluorescence of the silver nanoclusters was quenched by Co2+ for the aggregation of PEI-Ag NCs caused by the coordination between cobalt ion and amino group on polyethyleneimine. Under the optimized experimental conditionsthe fluorescence quenching degree of PEI-Ag NCs was piecewise linear with the concentration of cobalt ion in the range of 8.30×10-7-4.17×10-4 mol/L and the detection limit was 0.41 μµmol/L. © 2022, Youke Publishing Co.,Ltd.

Some optimizations on detecting gravitational wave using convolutional neural network

This work investigates the problem of detecting gravitational wave (GW) events based on simulated damped sinusoid signals contaminated with white Gaussian noise. It is treated as a classification problem with one class for the interesting events. The proposed scheme consists of the following two successive steps: decomposing the data using a wavelet packet, representing the GW signal and noise using the derived decomposition coefficients; and determining the existence of any GW event using a convolutional neural network (CNN) with a logistic regression output layer. The characteristic of this work is its comprehensive investigations on CNN structure, detection window width, data resolution, wavelet packet decomposition and detection window overlap scheme. Extensive simulation experiments show excellent performances for reliable detection of signals with a range of GW model parameters and signal-to-noise ratios. While we use a simple waveform model in this study, we expect the method to be particularly valuable when the potential GW shapes are too complex to be characterized with a template bank.     

Diffusive search with spatially dependent resetting

We consider a stochastic search model with resetting for an unknown stationary target $a\in \mathbb{R}$ with known distribution $\mu$. The searcher begins at the origin and performs Brownian motion with diffusion constant $D$. The searcher is also armed with an exponential clock with spatially dependent rate $r=r\left(\cdot \right)$, so that if it has failed to locate the target by the time the clock rings, then its position is reset to the origin and it continues its search anew from there. Denote the position of the searcher at time $t$ by $X\left(t\right)$. Let $E_0^{\left(r\right)}$ denote expectations for the process $X\left(\cdot \right)$. The search ends at time $T_a=inf\{t\ge 0:X\left(t\right)=a\}$. The expected time of the search is then ${\int }_{\mathbb{R}}\left(E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a\right)\mu \left(da\right)$. Ideally, one would like to minimize this over all resetting rates $r$. We obtain quantitative growth rates for $E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a$ as a function of $a$ in terms of the asymptotic behavior of the rate function $r$, and also a rather precise dichotomy on the asymptotic behavior of the resetting function $r$ to determine whether $E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a$ is finite or infinite. We show generically that if $r\left(x\right)$ is of the order ${\left|x\right|}^{2l}$, with $l>-1$, then $log{E}_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a$ is of the order ${\left|a\right|}^{l+1}$; in particular, the smaller the asymptotic size of $r$, the smaller the asymptotic growth rate of $E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a$. The asymptotic growth rate of $E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a$ continues to decrease when $r\left(x\right)\sim \frac{D\lambda }{x^2}$ with $\lambda >1$; now the growth rate of $E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a$ is more or less of the order ${\left|a\right|}^{\frac{1+\sqrt{1+8\lambda }}{2}}$. Note that this exponent increases to $\infty$ when $\lambda$ increases to $\infty$ and decreases to 2 when $\lambda$ decreases to 1. However, if $\lambda =1$, then $E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a=\infty$, for $a\ne 0$. Our results suggest that for many distributions $\mu$ supported on all of $\mathbb{R}$, a near optimal (or optimal) choice of resetting function $r$ in order to minimize ${\int }_{{\mathbb{R}}^d}\left(E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a\right)\mu \left(da\right)$ will be one which decays quadratically as $\frac{D\lambda }{x^2}$ for some $\lambda >1$. We also give explicit, albeit rather complicated, variational formulas for ${inf}_{r\gneqq 0}{\int }_{{\mathbb{R}}^d}\left(E_0^{\left(r\right)}{T}_a\right)\mu \left(da\right)$. For distributions $\mu$ with compact support, one should set $r=\infty$ off of the support. We also discuss this case.
