Performance and EXIT analysis of parallel concatenated space time trellis codes

Space time trellis coding (STTC) techniques have been proposed to achieve both diversity and coding gains in multiple input multiple output (MIMO) fading channels. But with more transmit antennas STTCs suffer from the design difficulty and complexity increasing. This paper proposes a scheme, named parallel concatenated space time trellis codes (PC-STTC), to achieve the tradeoff between the performances and complexity of STTCs for a large number of transmit antennas. Simulation results and complexity comparison are provided to demonstrate the performance and superiority of the proposed scheme over conventional schemes in fast fading channels in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regions. And an EXIT (extrinsic information transform) chart is given to analyze the iterative convergence of the proposed scheme. It shows that PC-STTC has better iterative convergence in low SNR regions.     

Models of Choosing the Financial Compensation Strategy for Flight Delay

At present, most airlines adopted generally the same amount of compensa- tion strategy when needing to provide financial compensation to all flight delay passengers. However, due to the existence of differences in travel time value, ticket fare, as well as the expectation of compensation for flight delays, the gap between the effect of same amount of compensation and many passengers＇ （especially the high-value ones） expectations is large, it results in that airlines need to pay higher cost of compensation, but the total effect of compensation for passengers are not better. This paper advanced four financial com- pensation strategies for flight delays, summarized their own characteristics, and took into account the interests of both airlines and passengers, built the optimization models of the four financial compensation strategies under the restriction of the airline＇s compensation cost and on the goal of the maximum total effectiveness of the financial compensation to all passengers. Finally, based on the specific circumstances of the flight delays, the paper discussed the method for airline to choose the optimal financial compensation strategy through solving four models and comparing the compensation effectiveness.     

收益共享协调机制下两阶段供应链提前期压缩的博弈分析

提前期压缩可以使供应链柔性增大、库存成本减少和供应链收益增加.提前期压缩所增加收益的合理分配对供应链成员间的合作伙伴关系的维护和加强起着关键性作用.建立了基于收益共享协调机制下的Stackelberg博弈模型,在制造商投资柔性设备压缩订货提前期给零售商带来的额外效益在供应链上下游间分享的情形下,分析了提前期压缩和零售商库存管理的决策问题.研究发现:在收益共享协调方式下,零售商先行动公布收益分享比例激励制造商进行合理的订货提前期压缩,供应链整体及上下游的收益均要高于订货提前期压缩前;提前期压缩比例和收益共享比例与零售商的终端需求、订货批量等库存管理参数等有着紧密联系.

Robust H∞ filtering for discrete-time systems with Markovian switching and time-delays

The robust H∞ filtering problem for uncertain discrete-time Markovian jump linear systems with modedependent time-delays is investigated. Attention is focused on designing a Markovian jump linear filter that ensures robust stochastic stability while achieving a prescribed H∞ performance level of the resulting filtering error system, for all admissible uncertainties. The key features of the approach include the introduction of a new type of stochastic Lyapunov functional and some free weighting matrix variables. Sufficient conditions for the solvability of this problem are obtained in terms of a set of linear matrix inequalities. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the reduced conservatism of the proposed approach.

Adaptive broadband beamformer for nonuniform linear array based on second order cone programming

Adaptive broadband beamforming is a key issue in array applications. The adaptive broadband beamformer with tapped delay line (TDL) structure for nonuniform linear array (NLA) is designed according to the rule of minimizing the beamformer's output power while keeping the distortionless response (DR) in the direction of desired signal and keeping the constant beamwidth (CB) with the prescribed sidelobe level over the whole operating band. This kind of beamforming problem can be solved with the interior-point method after being converted to the form of standard second order cone programming (SOCP). The computer simulations are presented which illustrate the effectiveness of our bearaformer.

Capacity analysis of high-rank line-of-sight MIMO channels

Matrix perturbation theory is utilized to investigate high-rank line of sight multiple input multiple output channels in a microwave relay system. The upper and lower bounds of channel capacity are derived based on space time block codes technique and singular values decomposition. A useful constraint for designing LOS MIMO channels is developed by the use of the condition number of the MIMO channel matrix. The theoretical analysis of channel capacity is confirmed by the simulation. The results show that the proposed method is able to give a physical explanation of the high-rank LOS MIMO channel matrix characteristics.     

Design and performance analysis of networked control systems with random delay

The design and performance analysis of networked control systems with random network delay in the forward channel is proposed, which are described in a state-space form. A new control scheme is used to overcome the effects of network transmission delay, which is termed networked predictive control (NPC). Furthermore, three different ways to choose control input are discussed and the performances are analyzed, respectively. Both real-time simulations and practical experiments show the effectiveness of the control scheme.
