Sum rates for multi-user MIMO vector perturbation precoding with regularization

In this paper, we analyze the sum rate performance of multiuser multi-antenna downlink channel. We consider Rayleigh fading environment when regularized vector perturbation precoding (R-VPP) method is used at the transmitter. We derive expressions for the sum rate in terms of the variance of the received signal. We also provide a closed form approximation for the mean squared error (MSE) which is shown to work well for the whole range of SNR. Further, we also propose a simpler expression for R-VPP sum rate based on MSE. The simulation results show that the proposed expressions for R-VPP sum rate closely match the sum rate found by the entropy estimation. Our results show that when compared with other linear and non-linear precoding methods (like zero-forcing precoder, linear minimum mean square error (MMSE) precoder and VPP), R-VPP sum rate performance is very close to DPC for all SNR values. It is also noted that the sum rate performance of the linear MMSE precoder is very close to the R-VPP at low to medium SNR range. Finally we also compared the merits of performing regularization for VPP as compared to the greedy rate maximizing user scheduling. It turns out that the R-VPP with or without user selection performs better than the VPP systems with user selection.

The effect of plasma channel on the self-distortion of laser pulse propagating through the collisional plasma channel

In the present paper, laser pulse distortion/breakup and the effect of the plasma channel on the laser propagation through the collisional plasma have been studied by using moment theory approach. Second order nonlinear differential equations of the beam width parameter have been derived for the propagation of the laser through uniform homogenous plasma and preformed plasma channel having parabolic density profile. Differential equations of beam width parameter have been solved numerically using Runge Kutta method. It has been observed from analysis that when the laser pulse propagates through the homogenous plasma, the low intensity front and rear parts of the laser get defocused/diffracted and the high intensity central/main portion of the laser pulse gets self-guided. As a result of this, the laser pulse gets distorted. This distortion of the laser has not been observed when the laser pulse is propagated through the plasma channel having density minimum at the axis and maximum at the edges. The laser pulse is guided as a whole, even the low intensity front and rear parts of the laser are also guided. Therefore, the plasma channel is useful to prevent the distortion/breakup of the laser.

The influence of the ultra-short pulse wavelength on the populations in the three electronic states of CsI molecule is investigated using the time-dependent wave packet method. The calculated results show that the populations in the two excited states approach to the maxima at the wavelengths of 369 nm and 297 nm, respectively. The photodissociation reaction channels of the CsI molecule can be chosen by controlling the pump pulse wavelength.

FY-2水汽通道光谱响应测量大气污染评估和订正

由于无法实现真空测量,大气吸收作用会对实验室光谱响应(SRF)测量产生污染。为了提高光谱定标精度,通过敏感性试验定量评估了大气污染对水汽通道实验室光谱响应测量的影响,并以FY-2D为例进行了光谱响应污染订正,分析了光谱污染带来的通道辐射计算误差。不同测量环境的敏感性模拟结果表明： 大气吸收导致光谱测量曲线产生显著波动,强吸收光谱处的响应减弱,致使依赖于SRF的通道辐射计算结果被高估。光谱污染带来的通道亮温偏差随着水汽含量的增加呈指数增长趋势,偏差大于0.5 K且仅在等效水平路径小于1 m相对湿度低于15%的干燥环境下小于1 K。4 m水平路径35%相对湿度的情况下,亮温偏差可大于4 K。FY-2系列卫星水汽通道的光谱响应都存在不同程度的大气污染现象。利用水平大气透过率光谱,通过光谱比值的方法,对FY-2D的SRF进行订正。订正后SRF的异常波动被基本消除,曲线分布更加光滑合理。理论分析结果表明： 大气污染导致FY-2D在典型大气条件下大气层顶的通道亮温模拟偏高2.2 K,黑体辐射进而辐射定标高估7.6%。大气吸收对实验室光谱定标的影响非常显著,不仅对水汽通道对所有气体吸收通道都不能忽略。实验室光谱定标不能忽略大气吸收的影响,应该通过扣除大气透过率的影响的方式对测量光谱响应进行订正。

Noisy teleportation of qubit states via the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state or the W state

The effects of distributing entanglement through the amplitude damping channel or the phase damping channel on the teleportation of a single-qubit state via the Greenberger--Horne--Zeilinger state and the W state are discussed. It is found that the average fidelity of teleportation depends on the type and rate of the damping in the channel. For the one-qubit affected case, the Greenberger--Horne--Zeilinger state is as robust as the W state, i.e., the same quantum information is preserved through teleportation. For the two-qubit affected case, the W state is more robust when the entanglement is distributed via the amplitude damping channel; if the entanglement is distributed via the phase damping channel, the W state is more robust when the noisy parameter is small while the Greenberger--Horne--Zeilinger state becomes more robust when it is large. For the three-qubit affected case, the Greenberger--Horne--Zeilinger state is more robust than the W state.     

Tripartite single-photon entangled states in noisy quantum channels

A tripartite single-photon state shared through noisy quantum channels is considered for three different system configurations. The quantum teleportation of a single-photon state between two parties is investigated in cases with and without the assistance of a third party. The condition that the quantum teleportation is superior to the classical one is provided in terms of the damping rate and detector efficiency.     

Large-eddy simulations of temporally accelerating turbulent channel flow

The unsteady turbulent channel flow subject to the temporal acceleration is considered in this study. Large-eddy simulations were performed to study the response of the turbulent flow to the temporal acceleration. The simulations were started with the fully developed turbulent channel flow at an initial Reynolds number of Re₀ = 3500 (based on the channel half-height and the bulk-mean velocity), and then a constant temporal acceleration was applied. During the acceleration, the Reynolds number of the channel flow increased linearly from the initial Reynolds number to the final Reynolds number of Re₁ = 22,600. The effect of grid resolution, domain size, time step size on the simulation results was assessed in a preliminary study using simulations of the accelerating turbulent flow as well as simulations of the steady turbulent channel flow at various Reynolds numbers. Simulation parameters were carefully chosen from the preliminary study to ascertain the accuracy of the simulation. From the accelerating turbulent flow simulations, the delays in the response of various flow properties to the temporal acceleration were measured. The distinctive features of the delays responsible for turbulence production, energy redistribution, and radial propagation were identified. Detailed turbulence statistics including the wall shear stress response during the acceleration were examined. The results reveal the changes in the near-wall structures during the acceleration. A self-sustaining mechanism of turbulence is proposed to explain the response of the turbulent flow to the temporal acceleration. Although the overall flow characteristics are similar between the channel and pipe flows, some differences were observed between the two flows.
