    • Journal of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. 2023, 46(1): 1-5.
    • Abstract ( 385 )       
    • Dynamic spectrum sharing introduces intra-frequency interferences and security problems, while traditional static spectrum sharing is facing the issue of low spectrum utilization rate. To introduce an interference-free, secure and efficient spectrum sharing strategy,a newsboy model applied to static spectrum sharing strategy is proposed for multi-buyer systems. Since the newsboy strategy considers the service demand as a dynamic procedure, the leasing strategy has to be adjusted periodically. Within one leasing cycle,the theoretical analysis shows how the newsboy strategy is used. The simulation results present the exact values of the optimal leasing cycle,the optimal requested spectrum quantity,and the optimal user service price coefficient under the premise of simulation. Compared with the traditional static spectrum sharing strategy,the newsboy strategy can achieve higher system profit and spectrum efficiency without introducing additional issues.

    • ZHANG Honglun, LU Mingquan
    • Journal of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. 2023, 46(1): 6-11.
    • Abstract ( 295 )       
    • The mathematical models of intermediate frequency and zero intermediate global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signal are deduced. The pre-detection GNSS signal model is further proposed. A unified method is proposed to add noise for the three signal models. The theoretical analysis and simulation results show that the simulation platforms based on the three model are equivalent. The pre-detection simulation platform reduces the data sampling rate to about 1 000 Hz and reduces the amount of computation, and the simulation efficiency is improved. A frequency tracking scheme based on Viterbi algorithm is proposed, in which the frequency is estimated by traceback approach. This tracking scheme is verified on the pre-detection simulation platform and the results show that the proposed method can track GNSS signal for a carrier-to-noise ratio of 10 dBHz in static scene.

    • Journal of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. 2023, 46(1): 12-18.
    • Abstract ( 724 )       
    • In federated learning (FL),the distribution of data in clients is always heterogeneous,which makes the unified model trained in FL unable to meet the demand of each client. To combat this issue, a personalized federated learning algorithm with meta learning and knowledge distillation is proposed,in which the knowledge distillation and meta-learning with FL and incorporating the personalization are combined into the training of FL. In each global iteration,the global model(teacher model) update itself according to the feedback from the local model ( student model) during the knowledge distillation. Therefore,each client can obtain a better personalized model. Simulation results show that compared with the existing personalized algorithms, the proposed algorithm can achieve a better compromise between global accuracy and personalization accuracy while improving the personalization accuracy.

    • Journal of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. 2023, 46(1): 19-25.
    • Abstract ( 313 )       
    • To effectively solve the defects of structural distortion and blurry texture when repairing large and irregular semantic missing area images by using the existing algorithms, a diverse aggregation image restoration algorithm based on contextual information is proposed. First,the information on the damaged image is extracted by the encoder to estimate the missing content. Thereafter, the context information from various receptive fields is merged through the multi-information aggregation block to enhance the structure and texture information of the missing area. Then, the original image features are restored through the decoder. Finally, the mask matching discriminator is adopted to perform discrimination training on the generated image,and the model is optimized by combining the counter loss, reconstruction loss,perception loss and style loss to promote the generator to synthesize clear textures. The proposed algorithm is trained and tested on the public data set. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can obtain clearer and more reasonable structure and texture details than state-of-the-art when inpainting randomly irregular and large missing areas. Its objective indices such as peak signal-to-noise ratio and structural similarity are superior over the compared algorithms.

    • LI Zhaobin, ZHANG Lu, ZHAO Hong, WEI Zhanzhen
    • Journal of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. 2023, 46(1): 44-49,83.
    • Abstract ( 370 )       
    • Conditional proxy re-encryption can grant fine-grained authorization to ciphertext according to conditional information. Most of the existing conditional proxy re-encryption schemes are based on traditional public key infrastructure or identity public key, therefore bringing the problems of certificate management and key escrow. To solve these problems, a new certificateless threshold conditional proxy re-encryption scheme is constructed, in which the conditional information is added when the original ciphertext and re-encryption key are generated, and the proxy node verifies the condition compliance before re-encryption to ensure that only the matching ciphertext can be re-encrypted. Threshold technology is used to protect re-encryption key and private key. Theoretical analysis shows that the proposed scheme is able to resist two types of adversary attacks,the first type-I adversary replaces the user's public key and the type-II adversary holds the system's master key.  The simulation results demonstrate that the proposed scheme has high efficiency in key operations such as re-encryption key generation and re-encryption, therefore, providing the basis for ciphertext sharing in applications such as distributed cloud storage.

    • Abstract ( 207 )       
    • To solve the difficulty in capturing highly dynamic double-binary offset carrier signals in narrowband interference environment, a capture algorithm combining singular value decomposition, the minimum description length criterion, discrete polynomial phase transformation, partial matching filter and fractional Fourier transform plus spectrum correction is proposed. First, the singular value decomposition is used to divide the signal containing narrowband interference into signal subspace and interference subspace, and the minimum description length criterion is used to determine the boundary between target signal and interference signal, and the interference suppression is adaptively completed. Then, the order algorithm is used to determine the dynamic order of the signal to complete the downgrading. Finally the capture of the signal containing only the first-order Doppler rate of change is completed. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can easily complete the precise suppression of interference while retaining the original signal characteristics, and the performance is stable. In addition, the proposed capture algorithm improves the capture probability by about 2 dB gain compared with uncorrected under the same conditions

    • Journal of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. 2023, 46(1): 69-76.
    • Abstract ( 465 )       
    • In order to further enhance the secrecy rate of the unmanned aerial vehicle ( UAV ) communication system, a UAV security communication system base on intelligent reflecting surface(IRS) and cooperative jamming is proposed. By using an IRS to dynamically strengthen the backhaul link and introducing artificial noise through a cooperative UAV to interfere with a illegal eavesdropper, the security of UAV communication system can be improved from the aspect of physical layer security. Considering the trajectory of the source UAV, the trajectory of the jamming UAV, the power control and the phase shift of IRS, a joint optimization problem is proposed with the goal of maximizing the security of the system. An alternate optimization algorithm is proposed, which turns the original problem into four sub-problems, and converts the original non-convex problem into approximately convex sub-problems through successive convex approximation and semidefinite relaxation technique, so that it can be solved directly by convex optimization tools. The simulation results show that the proposed optimization algorithm can converge quickly. Compared with the traditional non-intelligent reflector-assisted communication network, the proposed algorithm can significantly improve the security rate of the system.

    • Journal of Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications. 2023, 46(1): 84-89.
    • Abstract ( 227 )       
    • In the low signal-to-noise ratio environment, the problem of multi-parameter blind estimation for quadrature multiplexed binary offset carrier ( QMBOC) signals is existed. To solve this problem, a cyclic spectral estimation algorithm is proposed based on frequency domain cumulative averaging. First, the cyclic autocorrelation function of QMBOC signal is obtained from the signal model. The cyclic autocorrelation function is equivalent to the sum of the cyclic autocorrelation function of two subsignals. Then the cyclic autocorrelation function is used to derive the cyclic spectrum by Fourier transform, and the cyclic spectrum is averaged by frequency domain accumulation. Finally, the spectral peak is searched to realize the blind estimation of pseudo-code rate, subcarrier rate and carrier frequency according to the spectral line characteristics of the cyclic frequency section of QMBOC signal. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively estimate multiple parameters of QMBOC signal at - 9.5 dB.

    • Abstract ( 215 )       
    • In real scenes, unknown number of categories, unbalanced number of samples and complex data distribution can lead to low accuracy of intelligent face image extraction. To solve these problems, a face image clustering algorithm based on the discovery of key edges of association graph is proposed. First, the algorithm merges features of image samples extracted by multiple convolution neural networks to obtain new feature vectors with stronger capability of identification, and then calculates the similarity between different samples. Then, an appropriate threshold value is set for the rejection rate and the recognition rate, and the similarity result obtained in the previous stage is compared with the threshold value. The sample pairs with high similarity degree are screened out, and the association graph is constructed by adding the connecting edge between the above sample pairs. Using the intermediate number centrality measure, the key edge discovery method is designed to dig the important connecting edges that may connect different clusters in the association graph. Finally, the graph convolution network is used to confirm the existence of the above important connection edges, such that the final cluster is obtained. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the accuracy of face image
