    Abstract The addition of contextual sensors to mobile radiation sensors provides valuable information about radiological source encounters that can assist in adjudication of alarms. This study explores how computer-vision based object detection and tracking analyses can be used to augment radiological data from a mobile detector system. We study how contextual information (streaming video and LiDAR) can be used to associate dynamic pedestrians or vehicles with radiological alarms to enhance both situational awareness and detection sensitivity. Possible source encounters were staged in a mock urban environment where participants included pedestrians and vehicles moving in the vicinity of an intersection. Data was collected with a vehicle equipped with 6 NaI(Tl) 2 inch times 4 inch times 16 inch detectors in a hexagonal arrangement and multiple cameras, LiDARs, and an IMU. Physics-based models that describe the expected count rates from tracked objects are used to correlate vehicle and/or pedestrian trajectories to measured count-rate data through the use of Poisson maximum likelihood estimation and to discern between source-carrying and non-source-carrying objects. In this work, we demonstrate the capabilities of our source-object attribution approach as applied to a mobile detection system in the presence of moving sources to improve both detection sensitivity and situational awareness in a mock urban environment.

    Abstract We propose a sampling algorithm to perform system identification from a set of input-output graph signal pairs. The dynamics of the systems we study are given by a partially known adjacency matrix and a generic parametric graph filter of unknown parameters. The methodology we employ is built upon the principles of annealed Langevin diffusion. This enables us to draw samples from the posterior distribution instead of following the classical approach of point estimation using maximum likelihood. We investigate how to harness the prior information inherent in a dataset of graphs of different sizes through the utilization of graph neural networks. We demonstrate, via numerical experiments involving both real-world and synthetic networks, that integrating prior knowledge into the estimation process enhances estimation performance.

    Abstract Advances in power electronics have made it possible to achieve high power levels, e.g., reaching GW in grids, or alternatively high output bandwidths, e.g., beyond MHz in communication. Achieving both simultaneously, however, remains challenging. Various applications, ranging from efficient multichannel wireless power transfer to cutting-edge medical and neuroscience applications, are demanding both high power and wide bandwidth. Conventional inverters can achieve high power and high quality at grid or specific frequency ranges but lose their fidelity when reaching higher output frequencies. Resonant circuits can promise a high output frequency but only a narrow bandwidth. We overcome the hardware challenges by combining gallium-nitride (GaN) transistors with modular cascaded double-H bridge circuits and control that can manage typical timing and balancing issues. We developed a lightweight embedded control solution that includes an improved look-up-table digital synthesizer and a novel adaptive-bias-elimination nearest-level modulation. This solution effectively solves the conflict between a high power level and high output bandwidth and can--in contrast to previous approaches--in principle be scaled in both dimensions. Our prototype exhibits a frequency range from DC to 5 MHz with <18% total voltage distortion across the entire frequency spectrum, while achieving a power level of >5 kW. We conducted tests by sweeping the output frequency and two channel-mixing trials, which included a practical magnetogenetics-oriented stimulation pulse and an entertaining trial to reproduce the famous Arecibo message with the current spectrum.

    Abstract This paper focuses on the design of transmission methods and reflection optimization for a wireless system assisted by a single or multiple reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). The existing techniques are either too complex to implement in practical systems or too inefficient to achieve high performance. To overcome the shortcomings of the existing schemes, we propose a simple but efficient approach based on \textit{opportunistic reflection} and \textit{non-orthogonal transmission}. The key idea is opportunistically selecting the best user that can reap the maximal gain from the optimally reflected signals via RIS. That is to say, only the channel state information of the best user is used for RIS reflection optimization, which can in turn lower complexity substantially. In addition, the second user is selected to superpose its signal on that of the primary user, where the benefits of non-orthogonal transmission, i.e., high system capacity and improved user fairness, are obtained. Additionally, a simplified variant exploiting random phase shifts is proposed to avoid the high overhead of RIS channel estimation.

    Abstract The distributed adaptive signal fusion (DASF) framework allows to solve spatial filtering optimization problems in a distributed and adaptive fashion over a bandwidth-constrained wireless sensor network. The DASF algorithm requires each node to sequentially build a compressed version of the original network-wide problem and solve it locally. However, these local problems can still result in a high computational load at the nodes, especially when the required solver is iterative. In this paper, we study the particular case of fractional programs, i.e., problems for which the objective function is a fraction of two continuous functions, which indeed require such iterative solvers. By exploiting the structure of a commonly used method for solving fractional programs and interleaving it with the iterations of the standard DASF algorithm, we obtain a distributed algorithm with a significantly reduced computational cost compared to the straightforward application of DASF as a meta-algorithm. We prove convergence and optimality of this "fractional DASF" (FDASF) algorithm and demonstrate its performance via numerical simulations.
    摘要 distributed adaptive signal fusion (DASF) 框架可以在分布式和适应性的方式下解决宽频率约束无线传感网络上的空间滤波优化问题。 DASF 算法要求每个节点先后建立一个压缩版本的原始网络范围内问题,并解决它们本地。然而,这些本地问题仍可能导致节点上的计算负担很大,特别是当需要的解决器是迭代的。在这篇论文中,我们研究了分数程序,即两个连续函数的比例的问题。这些问题确实需要迭代的解决器。我们利用一种广泛使用的方法解决分数程序的方法,并与标准 DASF 算法的迭代结合起来,从而获得了一个分布式算法,与直接在 DASF 作为元算法应用时的计算成本相比,有显著的减少。我们证明了 FDASF 算法的收敛和优化性,并通过数字实验来证明其性能。

    Abstract Existing research on extremely large-scale intelligent reflecting surface (XL-IRS) beam training has assumed the far-field channel model for base station (BS)-IRS link. However, this approach may cause degraded beam training performance in practice due to the near-field channel model of the BS-IRS link. To address this issue, we propose two efficient schemes to optimize BS beamforming for improving the XL-IRS beam training performance. Specifically, the first scheme aims to maximize total received signal power on the XL-IRS, which generalizes the existing angle based BS beamforming design and can be resolved using the singular value decomposition (SVD) method. The second scheme aims to maximize the $\ell_1$-norm of incident signals on the XL-IRS, which is shown to achieve the maximum received power at the user. To solve the non-convex $\ell_1$-norm maximization problem, we propose an eficient algorithm by using the alternating optimization (AO) technique. Numerical results show that the proposed AO based BS beamforming design outperforms the SVD/angle based BS beamforming in terms of training accuracy and achievable received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).

  • results: Iterative phase noise tracking 在高信噪比下具有较低的估计误差方差,但是它对 spectral efficiency 的提高几乎只有微妙的提高,即高于 Nyquist 幂 ZXM 模ulation。
    Abstract High data rates require vast bandwidths, that can be found in the sub-THz band, and high sampling frequencies, which are predicted to lead to a problematically high analog-to-digital converter (ADC) power consumption. It was proposed to use 1-bit ADCs to mitigate this problem. Moreover, oscillator phase noise is predicted to be especially high at sub-THz carrier frequencies. For synchronization the phase must be tracked based on 1-bit quantized observations. We study iterative data-aided phase estimation, i.e., the expectation-maximization and the Fisher-scoring algorithm, compared to least-squares (LS) phase estimation. For phase interpolation at the data symbols, we consider the Kalman filter and the Rauch-Tung-Striebel algorithm. Compared to LS estimation, iterative phase noise tracking leads to a significantly lower estimation error variance at high signal-to-noise ratios. However, its benefit for the spectral efficiency using zero-crossing modulation (ZXM) is limited to marginal gains for high faster-than-Nyquist signaling factors, i.e., higher order ZXM modulation.

    Abstract This paper presents an innovative method that can be used to produce deterministic channel models for 5G industrial internet-of-things (IIoT) scenarios. Ray-tracing (RT) channel emulation can capture many of the specific properties of a propagation scenario, which is incredibly beneficial when facing various industrial environments and deployment setups. But the environment's complexity, composed of many metallic objects of different sizes and shapes, pushes the RT tool to its limits. In particular, the scattering or diffusion phenomena can bring significant components. Thus, in this article, the Volcano RT channel simulation is tuned and benchmarked against field measurements found in the literature at two frequencies relevant to 5G industrial networks: 3.7 GHz (mid-band) and 28 GHz (millimeter-wave (mmWave) band), to produce calibrated ray-based channel model. Both specular and diffuse scattering contributions are calculated. Finally, the tuned RT data is compared to measured large-scale parameters, such as the power delay profile (PDP), the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of delay spreads (DSs), both in line-of-sight (LoS) and non-LoS (NLoS) situations and relevant IIoT channel properties are further explored.

    Abstract Online 3D multi-object tracking (MOT) has recently received significant research interests due to the expanding demand of 3D perception in advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD). Among the existing 3D MOT frameworks for ADAS and AD, conventional point object tracking (POT) framework using the tracking-by-detection (TBD) strategy has been well studied and accepted for LiDAR and 4D imaging radar point clouds. In contrast, extended object tracking (EOT), another important framework which accepts the joint-detection-and-tracking (JDT) strategy, has rarely been explored for online 3D MOT applications. This paper provides the first systematical investigation of the EOT framework for online 3D MOT in real-world ADAS and AD scenarios. Specifically, the widely accepted TBD-POT framework, the recently investigated JDT-EOT framework, and our proposed TBD-EOT framework are compared via extensive evaluations on two open source 4D imaging radar datasets: View-of-Delft and TJ4DRadSet. Experiment results demonstrate that the conventional TBD-POT framework remains preferable for online 3D MOT with high tracking performance and low computational complexity, while the proposed TBD-EOT framework has the potential to outperform it in certain situations. However, the results also show that the JDT-EOT framework encounters multiple problems and performs inadequately in evaluation scenarios. After analyzing the causes of these phenomena based on various evaluation metrics and visualizations, we provide possible guidelines to improve the performance of these MOT frameworks on real-world data. These provide the first benchmark and important insights for the future development of 4D imaging radar-based online 3D MOT.

    Abstract A non-parametric complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition (NPCEEMD) is proposed for identifying bearing defects using weak features. NPCEEMD is non-parametric because, unlike existing decomposition methods such as ensemble empirical mode decomposition, it does not require defining the ideal SNR of noise and the number of ensembles, every time while processing the signals. The simulation results show that mode mixing in NPCEEMD is less than the existing decomposition methods. After conducting in-depth simulation analysis, the proposed method is applied to experimental data. The proposed NPCEEMD method works in following steps. First raw signal is obtained. Second, the obtained signal is decomposed. Then, the mutual information (MI) of the raw signal with NPCEEMD-generated IMFs is computed. Further IMFs with MI above 0.1 are selected and combined to form a resulting signal. Finally, envelope spectrum of resulting signal is computed to confirm the presence of defect.
    摘要 “一种非Parametric complementary ensemble empirical mode decomposition(NPCEEMD)是用于发现推挽缺陷的方法,使用弱特征。NPCEEMD非 Parametric,因为它不需要每次处理信号时定义理想噪声水平和数量的集合。模拟结果显示,NPCEEMD中的模式混合度比现有的分解方法更低。经过深入的模拟分析,提议的方法应用到实验数据中。NPCEEMD方法的步骤如下:首先获取原始信号;第二,将获取的信号进行分解;然后计算原始信号与NPCEEMD生成的IMF的相互信息(MI);进一步选择MI大于0.1的IMF并将其组合成一个结果信号;最后,计算结果信号的响应特征来确认缺陷存在。”Note: "IMF" stands for "intrinsic mode function".

    Abstract The envisioned wireless networks of the future entail the provisioning of massive numbers of connections, heterogeneous data traffic, ultra-high spectral efficiency, and low latency services. This vision is spurring research activities focused on defining a next generation multiple access (NGMA) protocol that can accommodate massive numbers of users in different resource blocks, thereby, achieving higher spectral efficiency and increased connectivity compared to conventional multiple access schemes. In this article, we present a multiple access scheme for NGMA in wireless communication systems assisted by multiple reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs). In this regard, considering the practical scenario of static users operating together with mobile ones, we first study the interplay of the design of NGMA schemes and RIS phase configuration in terms of efficiency and complexity. Based on this, we then propose a multiple access framework for RIS-assisted communication systems, and we also design a medium access control (MAC) protocol incorporating RISs. In addition, we give a detailed performance analysis of the designed RIS-assisted MAC protocol. Our extensive simulation results demonstrate that the proposed MAC design outperforms the benchmarks in terms of system throughput and access fairness, and also reveal a trade-off relationship between the system throughput and fairness.

    Abstract This paper investigates the potential of near-field localization using widely-spaced multi-subarrays (WSMSs) and analyzing the corresponding angle and range Cram\'er-Rao bounds (CRBs). By employing the Riemann sum, closed-form CRB expressions are derived for the spherical wavefront-based WSMS (SW-WSMS). We find that the CRBs can be characterized by the angular span formed by the line connecting the array's two ends to the target, and the different WSMSs with same angular spans but different number of subarrays have identical normalized CRBs. We provide a theoretical proof that, in certain scenarios, the CRB of WSMSs is smaller than that of uniform arrays. We further yield the closed-form CRBs for the hybrid spherical and planar wavefront-based WSMS (HSPW-WSMS), and its components can be seen as decompositions of the parameters from the CRBs for the SW-WSMS. Simulations are conducted to validate the accuracy of the derived closed-form CRBs and provide further insights into various system characteristics. Basically, this paper underscores the high resolution of utilizing WSMS for localization, reinforces the validity of adopting the HSPW assumption, and, considering its applications in communications, indicates a promising outlook for integrated sensing and communications based on HSPW-WSMSs.
