Performance analysis for range expansion in heterogeneous networks

In this paper, the uplink and downlink performance of a two-tier heterogeneous network （HetNet） with range expansion （RE） is analyzed. Different from previous works, base stations （BSs） are modeled as a spatial Poisson point process. This model can not only capture the irregularity of the BS deployment but also lead to closed form expressions. With the analytical results, the impacts of several key parameters on the coverage and throughput performance are investigated. Our results justifies the effectiveness of RE and Pico deployment. Based on our analyses, certain attention should be made on the RE design to balance the uplink and downlink performance. Our analyses are corroborated by simulations and can thus serve as a flexible and quick guidance for system design without complicated and time-consuming system-level platform construction and simulation.     

A role for isothiocyanates in plant resistance against the specialist herbivore Pieris rapae

We experimentally reanalyzed the classic interaction between Pieris rapae, a specialist lepidopteran herbivore, and isothiocyanates (mustard oils) that are characteristic phytochemicals of the Brassicaceae. Previous investigations have suggested that P. rapae is unaffected by isothiocyanates. Using whole plants, root extracts, and a microencapsulated formulation of allyl isothiocyanate, we now show that isothiocyanates reduce herbivore survival and growth, and increase development time, each in a dose-dependent manner. Neither the substrate allyl glucosinolate, nor myrosinase, the enzyme that results in the breakdown of glucosinolates, negatively affected P. rapae. Thus, we present strong evidence for a role for isothiocyanates in plant resistance against the specialist herbivore P. rapae.     

应对长江口咸潮入侵的临界流量经验模型研究

1994年以来,长江口咸潮入侵严重威胁当地供水安全,随着长江上游水库群陆续建成,有关部门提出了通过上游水库群压咸调度保障长江口地区供水安全的方案。为明确压咸调度的目标流量(即临界流量),基于统计分析的方法,采用多元回归分析和主成分分析方法,选取实测站点数据建立了盐度-潮差-入海流量的相关关系统计模型,研究了咸潮发生的机理;通过模型分析多次咸潮入侵数据,确定临界流量为一个变化值,潮差290～335 cm下的临界流量在9 390～21 633 m³/s之间。研究表明,当长江口咸潮入侵时,单独依靠长江上游水库调度压咸所需的流量大,响应时间长,压咸效果不明显。因此,实际压咸调度应通过流域整体调度与本地蓄淡避咸水库共同作用应对咸潮入侵。     

基于新型Canny算法雷达距离图像边缘检测算法

针对激光雷达距离像的噪声滤波和边缘检测问题,提出了一种结合改进环圈滤波算法和自适应Canny算法的距离像边缘检测算法.通过改进环圈滤波对距离像的噪声进行抑制,在滤除噪声的同时保留了图像的细节特征信息.从梯度幅值计算、非极大值抑制和阀值自动选择3个方面对传统Canny算法进行改进,克服了噪声影响和边缘检测模糊等缺点.实验结果表明,该算法能够可靠的对距离图像进行边缘检测,并且检测结果的信息熵和标准差指标数据优于传统的Sobel算法和Laplace算法,能够较好地满足激光雷达距离像边缘检测的实际需要.     

Robust registration based compensation method based on sparse recovery

The loss of the degree of system freedom and mismatch of prior information based on the registration based compensation (RBC) method will result in a decline in computational performance. In order to solve above problems, a robust method named SRBC is proposed where the sparse recovery method is applied instead of the sub-aperture smoothing operation. First, the SRBC utilizes the sparse recovery to get the super resolution clutter space-time spectrum. Then the transition covariance matrix is calculated. Finally, the clutter covariance matrix is reconstructed by the Capon spectrum. Compared with the traditional RBC method, the SRBC proposed does not depend on sub-aperture smoothing operation and prior information and maintains the performance of clutter range-dependence. In addition, it is also steadier when the sensor error exists. Experimental simulation demonstrates the correctness and feasibility of this method.

Characteristics of fluidization and dry-beneficiation of a wide-size-range medium-solids fluidized bed

Wide-size-range medium-solids are used in a modularized coal beneficiation demonstration system with a gas-solid fluidized bed. The characteristics of fluidization and dry-beneficiation of the medium solids were studied. The numerical simulation results show that 0.15–0.06 mm fine magnetite powder can decrease the disturbances caused by the bubbles. This is beneficial to the uniformity of the gas-solid interactions and thus to the uniformity and stability of the bed density and height. The experimental results show that, with an increase in the fine coal content in medium solids, both the fluidization quality and the beneficiation performance of the bed decreased gradually. When the fine coal content was no more than 13%, a relatively high superficial gas velocity increased the beneficiation efficiency. When the content was more than 13%, part of the fine coal was separated, leading to product layers. The separation efficiency was therefore gradually decreased. The models for predicting the bed density standard deviation and the probable error, E, value were both proposed. The E value can reach to 0.04–0.07 g/cm~3 under the optimized experimental parameters. This work provides a foundation for the adjustment of the bed density and the separation performance of the modularized 40–60 ton per hour dry coalbeneficiation industrial system.     

Improved NSGA-Ⅱ algorithm based on the uniformly crowding distance

With the wide application and further study of the genetic algorithm in multi-objective optimization problems, the NSGA-Ⅱ has been one of the representative evolutionary algorithms for multi-objective optimization problems. Crowding distance in the NSGA-Ⅱ plays an important role in convergence and uniform distribution of the solutions, but the NSGA-Ⅱ does not fully take the effect of each individual and the whole population into consideration. To estimate the region density more reasonably so as to make the solution set more uniformly converge to the Pareto optimal front, we design a uniformly crowding distance operator based on the uniformly crowding range and Gini weight, and propose an improved NSGA-Ⅱ algorithm. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm is verified by experiments on six multi-objective optimization test functions.
