Temperature dependence of heat conduction coefficient in nanotube/nanowire networks

Studies on heat conduction are so far mainly focused on regular systems such as the one-dimensional(1D) and twodimensional(2D) lattices where atoms are regularly connected and temperatures of atoms are homogeneously distributed.However, realistic systems such as the nanotube/nanowire networks are not regular but heterogeneously structured, and their heat conduction remains largely unknown. We present a model of quasi-physical networks to study heat conduction in such physical networks and focus on how the network structure influences the heat conduction coefficient κ. In this model,we for the first time consider each link as a 1D chain of atoms instead of a spring in the previous studies. We find that κ is different from link to link in the network, in contrast to the same constant in a regular 1D or 2D lattice. Moreover, for each specific link, we present a formula to show how κ depends on both its link length and the temperatures on its two ends.These findings show that the heat conduction in physical networks is not a straightforward extension of 1D and 2D lattices but seriously influenced by the network structure.     

Novel wavelength-division-multiplexed ring network architecture using optical path technology for multiple services and simple media access control procedure

A novel WDM ring network architecture that employs an attractive integrated-optic arrayed-waveguide grating (AWG) add-drop multiplexer (ADM) is proposed that fully uses a variety of optical path technologies. Single-hopped multiwavelength looped-bus optical paths establish multipoint-to-multipoint (M-M) communication, while conventional ringtype optical paths realize point-to-point and broadcast communication. Optical paths for OAM & C can also be established on a multihop basis with no additional wavelengths. All these optical paths can be established by a simple AWG-ADM in a node. A simple MAC procedure for M-M communication is proposed, and its performance is simulated. This procedure switches between the random with minimum slot distance limitation scheme and the slot assignment scheme. Simulation results confirm its fairness as evaluated by the metric of delay variance and its small delay. Network survivability is realized by the optical loop-back (LB) method.

Wavelength conversion in optical transport networks

The introduction of optical technology in the path layer of a transport network is analyzed; in particular, the impact of all-optical wavelength conversion is examined. Two basic optical cross-connect schemes based on space switching and on wave-length switching, respectively, and two types of wavelength converters are considered. The wavelength converters are, respectively, based on four-wave miring (FWM) in semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) and on cross-phase modulation (XPM) obtained by two SOAs put in an interferometric configuration. An analysis of transmission performances of optical transport networks employing both types of wavelength conversion and both the node architectures is reported. The performances are evaluated by means of a system modeling that facilitates considering physical phenomena occurring during transmission and all the important transmission impairments. The analysis reveals that both the types of converters can be employed with different features and limitations, according to the considered network and switching architecture.     

Quality of Service based resource allocation in D2D enabled 5G-CNs with network slicing

With the rapid new advancements in technology, there is an enormous increase in devices and their versatile need for services. Fifth-generation (5G) cellular networks (5G-CNs) with network slicing (NS) have emerged as a necessity for future mobile communication. The available network is partitioned logically into multiple virtual networks to provide an enormous range of users’ specific services. Efficient resource allocation methods are critical to delivering the customers with their required Quality of Service (QoS) priorities. In this work, we have investigated a QoS based resource allocation (RA) scheme considering two types of 5G slices with different service requirements; (1) enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) slice that requires a very high data rate and (2) massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC) slice that requires extremely low latency. We investigated the device-to-device (D2D) enabled 5G-CN model with NS to assign resources to users based on their QoS needs while considering the cellular and D2D user’s data rate requirements. We have proposed a Distributed Algorithm (DA) with edge computation to solve the optimization problem, which is novel as edge routers will solve the problem locally using the augmented Lagrange method. They then send this information to the central server to find the global optimum solution utilizing a consensus algorithm. Simulation analysis proves that this scheme is efficient as it assigns resources based on their QoS requirements. This scheme is excellent in reducing the central load and computational time.

A QoS-aware wavelength assignment scheme for optical networks

Dispersion in fiber optic is wavelength dependent and it degrades the quality of service (QoS) in an optical network. Although use of dispersion compensating fiber reduces the effects of dispersion but it is very costly. In this paper, we propose a QoS-aware wavelength assignment (QWA) scheme to improve the quality of service in an optical network by reducing the overall dispersion in the network. In this scheme, the connection requests with longer lightpath are assigned the wavelengths having lesser dispersion and the wavelengths having higher dispersion are assigned to the lightpaths with shorter distance. The lightpaths are computed using alternate path routing to achieve the lower blocking probability. The performance analysis of QWA scheme is done in terms of total dispersion using step-index fiber (SIF). Results of our experiments show that QWA scheme outperforms conventional wavelength assignment scheme based on First-Fit method (WAFF).     

Roles of voltage in semi-insulating GaAs photoconductive semiconductor switch

An experimental study of leakage current is presented in a semi-insulating(SI) Ga As photoconductive semiconductor switch(PCSS) with voltages up to 5.8 kV(average field is 19.3 kV/cm). The leakage current increases nonlinearly with the bias voltage increasing from 1.2×10~(-9)A to 3.6×10~(-5)A. Furthermore, the dark resistance, which is characterized as a function of electric field, does not monotonically decrease with the field but displays several distinct regimes. By eliminating the field-dependent drift velocity, the free-electron density n is extracted from the current, and then the critical field for each region of n(E) characteristic of PCSS is obtained. It must be the electric field that provides the free electron with sufficient energy to activate the carrier in the trapped state via multiple physical mechanisms, such as impurity ionization, fielddependent EL2 capture, and impact ionization of donor centers EL10 and EL2. The critical fields calculated from the activation energy of these physical processes accord well with the experimental results. Moreover, agreement between the fitting curve and experimental data of J(E), further confirms that the dark-state characteristics are related to these field-dependent processes. The effects of voltage on SI-Ga As PCSS may give us an insight into its physical mechanism.     

Bandwidth allocation in cooperative wireless networks: Buffer load analysis and fairness evaluation

In modern cooperative wireless networks, the resource allocation is an issue of major significance. The cooperation of source and relay nodes in wireless networks towards improved performance and robustness requires the application of an efficient bandwidth sharing policy. Moreover, user requirements for multimedia content over wireless links necessitate the support of advanced Quality of Service (QoS) features. In this paper, a novel bandwidth allocation technique for cooperative wireless networks is proposed, which is able to satisfy the increased QoS requirements of network users taking into account both traffic priority and packet buffer load. The performance of the proposed scheme is examined by analyzing the impact of buffer load on bandwidth allocation. Moreover, fairness performance in resource sharing is also studied. The results obtained for the cooperative network scenario employed, are validated by simulations. Evidently, the improved performance achieved by the proposed technique indicates that it can be employed for efficient traffic differentiation. The flexible design architecture of the proposed technique indicates its capability to be integrated into Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols for cooperative wireless networks.     

基于多算法优化SVM的粗糙面参数反演

支持向量机（SVM）是粗糙面参数反演中常用的一种反演算法,SVM反演中的惩罚参数C和核函数参数G对反演结果精度的影响较大,若参数取值不当,会使模型产生"过学习"或者"欠学习"的现象,从而降低预测精度.给出几种SVM参数C和参数G的优化算法,如K折交叉验证（K-CV）、遗传算法（GA）和粒子群算法（PSO）,并在此基础上提出一种基于K-CV和GA改进的PSO算法（GA-CV-PSO）.利用矩量法（MoM）获得的粗糙面后向散射系数构造训练集和测试集,通过不同参数反演的仿真结果对比不同优化算法的反演精度和计算时间,表明GA-CV-PSO算法克服了单一优化算法的缺陷,具有更精确的反演精度和更强的泛化能力.

纳观接触角的确定方法

对纳观接触角的确定曾有过许多研究工作, 本文对各种理论进行分析评论, 指出其各自的优缺点甚至错误, 认为最为简单实用的理论是朱如曾于1995年在《大学物理》((Vol. 14(2))) 的文章中对前人的宏观接触角的错误理论采用澄清接触角概念的方法所得到的纳观接触角的近似理论及近似公式α = (1-2E_PS/E_PL)π (其中E_PL和E_PS分别表示液体内部一个液体分子的势能和固体表面一个液态分子与固体的相互作用势能, 并可用分子动力学(MD) 模拟得到), 此理论属于纳观接触角的分子动力学理论的近似简化形式, 值得进一步发展. 为此, 本文根据物理分析假设Gibbs张力表面上位于非三相接触区的一个液体分子的势能为E_PL/2x, 三相接触线上一个液体分子与其余液体的相互作用势能为(1+kE_PS/E_PL)α E_PL/2xπ, 其中x和k 为优化参数. 根据Gibbs分界面上处处势能相等条件, 得到改进的纳观接触角的近似公式α = π({1-2xE_PS/E_PL)/(1+kE_PS/E_PL)．对固体表面的氩纳米液柱, 在温度90K下对液体分子之间采用林纳德－琼斯(L-J) 势, 液体分子与固体原子间采用带有可变强度参数a的 L-J 势, 对0.650< a <0.825 范围内的8种a值进行了MD模拟．得到了相应的Gibbs 张力面．将其纳观底角视为近似纳观接触角, 结合物理条件(当E_PS/E_PL=0时, α = π)用最小二乘法得到优化参数值x=0.7141, k=1.6051和相关系数0.9997. 这一充分接近于1的相关系数表明, 对于不同相互作用强度的纳米液固接触系统, 优化参数x和k确实可近似视为常数, 由此确认我们提出的利用MD模拟来确定纳观接触角近似公式中优化参数的可行性和该近似公式的一般适用性.     

Physical network infrastructure design based on user communication patterns

In order to ensure end-to-end links between the users of communication systems, the underlying physical communication network is usually designed independently. We present two design methods for such networks that depend on a particular logical communication network among users. The designs are optimized by minimizing the average path length between logically linked users. One physical network maintains a homogeneous distribution of degrees between nodes, whereas the other network permits each node to have as many degrees as possible. The data traffic capacity of the homogeneous network is always greater than that of the heterogeneous network. Moreover, the average path length of the homogeneous network is not much larger than in the heterogeneous case. This result supports the assertion that the limitation of degree in physical communication networks to meet the physical constraints of network equipment does not act as a harmful factor in the design of communication infrastructure.     

Particle swarm optimization based network selection in heterogeneous wireless environment

Deployment of heterogeneous wireless networks is spreading throughout the world as users want to be connected anytime, anywhere, and anyhow. Meanwhile, users are increasingly interested in multimedia applications such as audio, video streaming and Voice over IP (VoIP), which require strict Quality of Service (QoS) support. Provisioning of Always Best Connected (ABC) network with such constraints is a challenging task. Considering the availability of various access technologies, it is difficult for a network operator to find reliable criteria to select the best network that ensures user satisfaction while reducing multiple network selection. Designing an efficient Network selection algorithm, in this type of environment, is an important research problem. In this paper, we propose a novel network selection algorithm utilizing signal strength, available bit rate, signal to noise ratio, achievable throughput, bit error rate and outage probability metrics as criteria for network selection. The selection metrics are combined with PSO for relative dynamic weight optimization. The proposed algorithm is implemented in a typical heterogeneous environment of EDGE (2.5G) and UMTS (3G). Switching rate of the user between available networks has been used as the performance metric. Moreover, a utility function is used to maintain desired QoS during transition between networks, which is measured in terms of the throughput. It is shown here that PSO based approach yields optimal network selection in heterogeneous wireless environment.     

Synchronizability of small-world networks generated from ring networks with equal-distance edge additions

This paper investigates the impact of edge-adding number m and edge-adding distance d on both synchronizability and average path length of NW small-world networks generated from ring networks via random edge-adding. It is found that the synchronizability of the network as a function of the distance d is fluctuant and there exist some d that have almost no impact on the synchronizability and may only scarcely shorten the average path length of the network. Numerical simulations on a network of Lorenz oscillators confirm the above results. This phenomenon shows that the contributions of randomly added edges to both the synchronizability and the average path length are not uniform nor monotone in building an NW small-world network with equal-distance edge additions, implying that only if appropriately adding edges when building up the NW small-word network can help enhance the synchronizability and/or reduce the average path length of the resultant network. Finally, it is shown that this NW small-world network has worse synchronizability and longer average path length, when compared with the conventional NW small-world network, with random-distance edge additions. This may be due to the fact that with equal-distance edge additions, there is only one shortcut distance for better information exchange among nodes and for shortening the average path length, while with random-distance edge additions, there exist many different distances for doing so.

On Witten''s global anomaly for higher SU(2) representations

The spectral flow of the overlap operator is computed numerically along a particular path in gauge field space. The path connects two gauge equivalent configurations which differ by a gauge transformation in the non-trivial class of π₄(SU(2)). The computation is done with the SU(2) gauge field in the fundamental, the 3/2, and the 5/2 representation. The number of eigenvalue pairs that change places along this path is established for these three representations and an even–odd pattern predicted by Witten is verified.
