Influence of Error-prone Channel on the Performance of IEEE 802.11 WLAN Utilizing RTS/CTS Handshaking

A comprehensive study was presented for WLAN 802.11b using error-prone channel. It was theoretically and numerically evaluated the performance of three different network sizes with the bit rates that available in 802.11b protocol. Results show that throughput does not change with the size of the network for wide range of bit error rates (BERs) and the channel bit rates play a significant role in the main characteristics of the network. A comprehensive explanation has given for the phenomenon of the packet delay suppression at relatively high level of BERs in view of the size of the networks and the BERs. The effect length of the transmitting packets is also investigated.     

Research on Nonlinear Dynamic Simulation and Fatigue Reliability Life Prediction for Synthesis Transmission System of Self-Propelled Gun

Aiming to the puzzle that the inner load of nonlinear synthesis transmission system is difficult to obtain, a new kind of virtual prototype establishment and simulation method is put forward. The influence on nonlinear vibration with flexible rotor, bearing backlash is analyzed based on a virtual prototype. To validate the virtual prototype of nonlinear gear transmission system, the corresponding test platform is established. The consistency between simulation results and test results proves that the simulation results of the virtual prototype can be used to calculate the fatigue reliability life of key components. A new kind of fatigue reliability life prediction method of gear system considering multi-random parameter distribution is put forward based on the fatiguestatistic theory. Considering the periodicity of gear meshing, linear interpolation method is adopted to obtain the stress-time course of random load spectrum based on the gear’s complicated torque provided by virtual prototype. The gear’s P-S_a-S_m-N curved cluster can be simulated based on material’s P-S-N curve. The simulation process considers the parameter distributions of stress concentration coefficients, dimension coefficients and surface quality treatment coefficients, and settles the puzzle that traditional test methods cannot acquire the gear’s fatigue life of all reliability levels. This method can provide the distribution function and the interval of fatigue reliability life of gear’s danger region, and has a guide meaning for the gear maintenance periods determination and reliability evaluation.

Magnetic resonance imaging of atherosclerotic lesion with new devised animal surface coil

The ability of dynamic contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging(DCE MRI) with a new devised animal surface coil was analyzed in identifying atherosclerotic plaques in the rabbit medium-sized iliac artery(IA).Then a comparative analysis of multi-detector computed tomography(MDCT) and DCE MRI was done in discerning morphology and components of 80 atherosclerotic plaques identified by histopathology.It shows that the DCE MRI may be an emerging noninvasive and economic way to characterize atherosclerotic plaques at present.What's more, a new devised animal surface coil would further improve the signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) and the quality of imaging.However, CT angiography(CTA) may be better than MR angiography(MRA) in detecting vessel stenosis.     

Hepatic CT image query based on threshold-based classification scheme with gabor features

Hepatic computed tomography(CT) images with Gabor function were analyzed.Then a threshold-based classification scheme was proposed using Gabor features and proceeded with the retrieval of the hepatic CT images.In our experiments, a batch of hepatic CT images containing several types of CT findings was used and compared with the Zhao's image classification scheme, support vector machines(SVM) scheme and threshold-based scheme.     

Granular effect of fly ash repairs damage of recycled coarse aggregate

Repairing effect of fly ash (FA) on damage of recycled coarse aggregate was evaluated by characteristics of pores and cracks in the vicinity of interracial transition zone (ITZ). The interracial structure between the virgin aggregate and the attached old mortar was investigated and compared with ITZ of recycled aggregate concrete in the presence of FA or ultra-fine FA(UFA) by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM). Diam- eter and plumpness frequency distribution of pores as well as width of the old ITZ, length of contacting points and cracks density were analyzed. The SEM results reveal that the diameter of pores is decreases significantly but pores plumpness increases. A decreased ITZ width and cracks density as well as an increased bonding zone length can also been observed, which indicates that FA or UFA repairs damage of recycled coarse aggregate due to its granular effect.     

Identity-based verifiably committed signature scheme without random oracles

An identity-based verifiably committed signature scheme （IB-VCS） was proposed, which is proved secure in the standard model （i.e., without random oracles）. It enjoys the setup-free property and stand-alone property, both of which make an exchange protocol more practical. The scheme is unconditionally secure against the cheating signer, its security against the cheating verifier is reduced to the computational Diffie-Hellman （CDH） problem in the underlying group, it is secure against the cheating trusted third party if the underlying Paterson Schuldt＇s identity based signature （IBS） scheme is secure, which is proven true based on the CDH assumption in the standard model.     

New applications of EXIT chart for iterative decoding systems

Applications on iterative control and multiple input multiple output （MIMO） system were developed. Two new charts derived from extrinsic information transfer （EXIT） chart were employed as the designing tools, which are called as output mutual information chart with defined iterative degree （DID） chart and near optimum output mutual information （NOMI） chart respectively. Different from the EXIT chart, they can show the iterative performance on the whole signal-to-noise ratio range with one single curve, whereas computation complexity is greatly reduced compared with conventional bit error ratio （BER） performance curve. The iterative control was implemented according to a near-optimum iterative degree vector determined by NOMI chart, the reasonability of uncertain parameters was analyzed in one MIMO system. The concepts were illustrated based on bit-interleaved coded modulation with iterative decoding （BICM-ID）.     

A secure trust model for P2P systems based on trusted computing

Trust is one of the most important security requirements in the design and implementation of peer-to-peer （P2P） systems. In an environment where peers＇ identity privacy is important, it may conflict with trustworthiness that is based on the knowledge related to the peer＇s identity, while identity privacy is usually achieved by hiding such knowledge. A trust model based on trusted computing （TC） technology was proposed to enhance the identity privacy of peers during the trustworthiness evaluation process between peers from different groups. The simulation results show that, the model can be implemented in an efficient way, and when the degree of anonymity within group （DAWG） is up to 0.6 and the percentage of malicious peers is up to 70%7 the service selection failure rate is less than 0.15.
