Vector Quantization Based QoS Classification for Admission Control in CDMA Systems

Optimal power control is of great importance for CDMA systems and it can be controlled to provide the desired quality of service (QoS) to mobile hosts in a cellular radio system. The power levels of all the mobile hosts are determined and constantly tuned in order to achieve the required SINR (signal to interference and noise ratio) which changes dynamically. The SINR of all the K mobiles in a cell can be expressed in the form of a k-dimensional vector. It helps determine the operating point of the system and hence it is constantly monitored and updated due to the variability in the wireless channel conditions and user mobility. We view this continuously changing vector as the motion of a point in a higher dimensional Euclidean space, called the QoS space. We apply vector quantization technique to shrink the infinite-point space to a finite-point space by partitioning the former into N regions such that the points within a region reflect almost similar system performance and are identified by what we call a QoS index. We show how the system operating point can be mapped to one of the QoS indices. The location of the point or the region of operability in the QoS space conveys the system status in terms of the current load and the QoS being delivered. The dynamism in the system's input conditions due to wireless link characteristics and user mobility acts like an opposing force against which the system has to operate. The system reacts to all such changes preventing it from going into a region with an undesirable QoS index. We show how the apriori knowledge of the operating region helps in decision making pertaining to call admission and resource allocation in CDMA systems.

简要介绍柴油发电机组的主要特征、各种应用场合的选型、功率匹配及功率修正应关注的几个问题。     

一种从图像中检测多种圆的新方法

文中从实际工程需要出发,结合随机采样一致性原理,将每一个数据点描述为适合该点首选的假定模型的倾向集集合,再基于倾向集之间的Jaccard距离,采用一种经过改良的密集聚类方法,聚集属于同一种模型的数据点．这种方法既不要求事先指定模型数目,也不需要进行参数调试．实验表明,该算法检测效果明显,精确度较高．     

基于索引的文件备份方案

针对数据备份服务器上存在大量相同文件冗余的问题,提出了一种新的基于索引的文件备份方案,其核心是用二维链表形式对备份文件建立索引,并对相同的文件只存储一个副本,从而消除重复文件的冗余,达到节省存储空间的目的。该方案包括以下几个部分:相同文件的识别、文件的存储、文件夹的处理、文件备份过程和备份的更新.理论分析和实验表明,该方案较传统方法节省了存储空间,但备份过程中的系统负载和时间消耗有所增加.

视音频信息检索的需求、研究与实际应用

自动编目和信息检索的核心是索引,目前几乎所有的资料管理机构仍然主要依靠某种形式的分类体系对文献或各种类型的内容进行分类。随着计算机技术的广泛应用,自动索引提供了对索引问题的一种新的认识,即索引问题在某种程度上与系统更为相关,而不是与用户需求相关。区分这一点非常重要,即检索是以基于规则的计算为核心,还是以人的主观判断为核心。为此,在对信息检索的各种模型作了简介和性能比较之后,详细讨论了当前广电系统视音频信息检索的需求、特点、研究现状、实际应用和下一步的进展。

Disturbance Attenuation in Hyperbolic 2D-systems

We consider disturbed linear 2D-systems of Fornasini–Marchesini type in the continuous time case. These systems are also named Goursat-type systems. Conditions for unique solvability of the disturbed optimal control problem with a quadratic cost functional are obtained. The disturbed or worst case optimal control guarantees to minimize the cost functional for any unknown disturbance input. In a second part then we consider a disturbance attenuation by boundary controls, i.e., by using the Goursat-data as control functions. In the 2D-case this results in two control functions acting independently on the system. We study a cooperative and a non-cooperative situation. In the cooperative situation we again obtain a disturbed optimal control problem and get conditions for existence and uniqueness of such a disturbed optimal control problem. If the action of the agents is non-cooperative we assume that it is agreed that they act on an open-loop Nash/worst-case equilibrium strategy. Sufficient conditions for the existence of such an equilibrium are obtained. Published online: April 2006
