    With the increasing demand of mobile users for high-speed data transmission services, the problem of insufficient capacity coverage of mobile communication systems in local areas is becoming increasingly prominent.Aiming to eliminate the capacity coverage hole and overcome the complex interference of the network, the resource cell coverage structure was proposed.The coverage structure has the characteristics of elastic scalability and is capable of providing on-demand energy-efficient coverage.Based on the interference management, a basic spatial unit for capacity coverage and energy coverage was formed, and the mutual adaptation of service distribution, energy distribution and coverage structure were realized.Relying on the above coverage structure, a resource cell generation (RCG) method was proposed to enhance capacity coverage.Through dynamically adjusting the coverage structure and providing on-demand network resources, the RCG method could achieve efficient capacity coverage for the uneven service distribution under uniform access point deployment.Simulation and experimental results show that, compared with the traditional static coverage method, the RCG method eliminates the capacity coverage hole, improves the network throughput, and enhances the capacity coverage capability of the network.

    Driven by the development of intelligent internet of things (IoT) technology, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) swarms have been widely used for sensing and monitoring in emergency and rescue scenarios.The UAVs automatically sense and discover mission targets in the mission area, recruiting neighboring UAVs to form perception and computation task groups to collaboratively complete the perception, acquisition and processing of data.However, repetitive sensory data and imbalance in the supply and demand of computational resources between multiple tasks cause additional computational and communication overheads and increase the end-to-end processing latency.To address this challenge, a multi-task resource allocation approach combining bionics and multi-agent independent reinforcement learning was proposed, making collaborative resource allocation decisions based on local task information.The method represents the resource requirements of individual tasks as situational information concentrations and dynamically updates the heterogeneous resource requirements of each task by spreading the situational information across task groups.At the same time, it combines multi-agent independent reinforcement learning methods for intelligent decision making in order to collaboratively allocate the heterogeneous resources of each task.Simulation results show that this solution can not only effectively reduce the task execution time, but also significantly improve the computational resource utilization.

    Different from terrestrial internet of things (IoT) applications, marine IoT applications need to solve the problem of information interaction between surface network and underwater network.The key to solve this problem is to design a proper routing scheme.An ad hoc on-demand distance vector for acoustic-radio integrated network (AR-AODV) was proposed based on location information and energy balance.The protocol enables surface radio links to forward more information data, so as to reduce the burden of underwater communication network and improve the overall performance.In the proposed protocol, the forwarding priority of the buoy nodes was higher than that of the underwater nodes.When the source node needs to send data, it enters the route discovery phase, i.e., the node uses its position and energy information as the heuristic information to calculate the forwarding probability and broadcast route request (RREQ) packets.When the destination node receives an RREQ packet, it sent an RREP packet to update the pheromone and select the optimal path based on the pheromone.Compared with AODV protocol, AR-AODV protocol has significantly improved the performance in terms of transmission success rate, transmission delay, throughput, energy conversion rate and routing packet forwarding times.

    In order to improve the accuracy of multi-classification in network intrusion detection, an intrusion detection method was proposed based on depthwise separable convolution and attention mechanism.By constructing a cascade structure combining depthwise separable convolution and long-term and short-term memory networks, the spatial and temporal features of network traffic data can be better extracted.A mixed-domain attention mechanism was introduced to enhance the detection performance.To solve the problem of low detection rate in some samples, a data balance strategy based on the combination of the variational auto-encoder (VAE) the generative adversarial network (GAN) and was designed, which can effectively cope with imbalanced datasets and improve the adaptability of the proposed detection method.The experimental results show that the proposed method is able to achieve 99.80%, 99.32%, and 83.87% accuracy on the CICIDS-2017, NSL-KDD and UNSW-NB15 datasets, which is improved by 0.6%, 0.5%, and 2.3%, respectively.

    The existing communication network represented by 5G is used as a communication session data “pipeline”for information exchange between terminal devices and the network.Different from the point-to-point transmission of communication session data, the data generated and consumed by AI, sensing and network operations in 6G network needs to be collected, preprocessed, stored, and analyzed in a distributed manner.To this end, a data plane architecture independent of the traditional user plane was proposed to systematically solve the challenges of managing and monetization of the non-user-plane data for 6G mobile communication networks.The classification and characteristics of 6G network data and data services were identified and defined.Furthermore, based on the comparative analysis of the 5G user plane and the existing data-driven network architecture, a 6G data plane framework composed of two main components i.e.data orchestrator and data agent was proposed, and the data plane functional architecture was elaborated.In addition, three potential options for data forwarding control mechanisms were designed.These mechanisms can support on-path-packet processing within any topology of data pipelines, realizing the construction and maintenance of dynamic programmable data pipeline and the thorough separation of routing algorithms and data forwarding.

    Deep reinforcement learning has strong abilities of decision-making and generalization and often applies to the quality of service (QoS) optimization in software defined network (SDN).However, traditional deep reinforcement learning algorithms have problems such as slow convergence and instability.An algorithm of quality of service optimization algorithm of based on deep reinforcement learning (AQSDRL) was proposed to solve the QoS problem of SDN in the data center network (DCN) applications.AQSDRL introduces the softmax deep double deterministic policy gradient (SD3) algorithm for model training, and a SumTree-based prioritized empirical replay mechanism was used to optimize the SD3 algorithm.The samples with more significant temporal-difference error (TD-error) were extracted with higher probability to train the neural network, effectively improving the convergence speed and stability of the algorithm.The experimental results show that the proposed AQSDRL effectively reduces the network transmission delay and improves the load balancing performance of the network than the existing deep reinforcement learning algorithms.

    In order to fit the differentiated energy demands in vertical markets and ensure that internet of things (IoT) devices can hold an efficient and sustainable operation mode, a radio frequency energy harvesting-combined collaborative energy-saving computation offloading mechanism was studied.Specifically, a system energy consumption minimization problem was formulated under the joint optimization consideration of computation offloading decision, uplink bandwidth resource allocation, downlink bandwidth resource allocation and base station power splitting.Meanwhile, by combining the concept of penalty function, a new evaluation index was introduced, and then an adaptive particle swarm optimization-based collaborative energy saving computation offloading (APSO-CESCO) algorithm was proposed to solve the problem.The proposed algorithm constructed dynamic inertia weight and linearly adjusted penalty factor, which could alternate the spatial distribution density of the particle community in real-time during the iterative search process, and the optimal computation offloading policy with tolerable punishment could be well-generated.Furthermore, to prevent particles from exceeding exploration range, the velocity boundary was introduced which could also reduce the generation probability of invalid solutions and improve the actual exploration effectiveness.Finally, the simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve higher convergence efficiency and solution accuracy, and compared with other common benchmark schemes, the system energy consumption can be reduced by 34.09%, 14.72%, and 6.86%, respectively.

    In the cognitive internet of things (CIoT), due to the non-cooperative characteristics between the primary user (PU) and the secondary user (SU), it is unreliable to seek the spectrum access opportunity by merely relying on traditional spectrum sensing technology.As an important type of auxiliary information, the mutual location information between PU and SU can assist in determining the possibility of secondary access to the licensed frequency band (LFB).A low-complexity neighbor-based weighted centroid localization (NB-WCL) algorithm was proposed to solve the localization problem of SUs in CIoT, so as to complete the decision of whether spectrum access can be performed at each geographical location in CIoT.The root mean square root error (RMSE) performance of two-dimensional position estimation was analyzed and the impacts of factors were verified such as communication radius, node density, shadowing influence, path loss exponent, connectivity metric, and the number of data transmitted on the algorithm performance in simulations.The theoretical derivation and experimental results show that the proposed scheme provides more robust and better localization error performance for the SU localization algorithm in CIoT than the traditional localization algorithms, which can effectively enhance the reliability of CIoT for spectrum access.The proposed scheme can serve as a practically effective candidate solution in the CIoT.

    The edge offloading of the internet of things (IoT) sensing data was investigated.Multiple edge servers cooperatively offload all or part of the sensing data initially sent to the cloud center, which protects data privacy and improves user experience.In the process of cooperative offloading, the transmission of the sensing data and the information exchange among edge servers will consume system resources, resulting in the cost of cooperation.How to maximize the offloading ratio of the sensing data while maintaining a low collaboration cost is a challenging problem.A joint optimization problem of sensing data offload ratio and cooperative scale satisfying the constraints of network delay and system energy consumption was formulated.Subsequently, a distributed alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) via constraint projection and variable splitting was proposed to solve the problem.Finally, simulation experiments were carried out on MATLAB.Numerical results show that the proposed method improved the network delay and energy consumption compared to the fairness cooperation algorithm (FCA), the distributed optimization algorithm (DOA), and multi-subtasks-to-multi-servers offloading scheme (MTMS) algorithm.

    The motor imagery brain-computer interface has always been the focus of scholars.But traditional system cannot accurately extract significant signals and has low classification accuracy.To overcome such difficulty, a new Transformer model was proposed based on the auto-encoder (AE).The filter bank common spatial pattern (FBCSP) was used to extract the features of multiple frequency bands, and the AE was exploited to obtain the dimensionality-reduced feature matrix.Finally, it considered the influence of the global signal features by the position encoding of the Transformer model and considered the internal correlation of the feature matrix by using the multi-head self-attention mechanism.By comparison with the traditional K-nearest neighbors (KNN) system based on linear discriminant analysis (LDA), the experimental results validates that the classification effect of AE+Transformer model is better than that of LDA+KNN system.It shows that the improved algorithm is suitable for the binary classification of motor imagery.

    For the cognitive relay network based on simultaneous wireless information and power transfer (SWIPT) and non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA), which is termed as SWIPT-NOMA-CR network, considering the practical situation of imperfect successive interference cancellation (SIC) and channel state information (CSI), the outage performance of secondary users was studied by using three relay transmission schemes including ideal, time switching (TS) and power splitting (PS).The analytical expressions of outage probability were derived for the secondary users, and the theoretical derivations were validated by Monte Carlo simulations.The results show that the outage performance of secondary users is impaired due to the imperfect SIC and CSI.Compared with the imperfect CSI, the imperfect SIC causes more severe loss to the outage performance of the system.Moreover, the outage probability of PS relay transmission scheme is lower than that of TS scheme.When the imperfect SIC and CSI conditions are changed, the outage probability gap with PS scheme is less than that with TS scheme, which indicates that the reliability of PS relay transmission scheme is superior to that of TS scheme.

    With the deep integration of information technology and manufacturing, the networking of manufacturing transactions has become an inevitable trend.Cloud manufacturing services can realize cross-supplier transactions that are not limited by geographical space, but in the process of transaction, there are problems such as difficulty in guaranteeing the trust of both parties and leakage of privacy.In order to solve the above problems, a cloud manufacturing service platform architecture based on a dual-chain model was proposed, which stores user data and transaction data in separate chains, and adopts a practical Byzantine fault tolerance (PBFT) consensus algorithm to solve the problem of data synchronization between blocks.However, traditional PBFT consensus algorithm has bottlenecks in storage and consensus efficiency, and is not suitable for large-scale manufacturing platforms.Therefore, further research on the PBFT consensus algorithm was carried out.The election process was optimized and the consensus protocol process of the consensus cluster was improved by combining the EigenTrust model and the quality of service (QoS), and then give the manufacturing resource rent-seeking and matching steps.Analysis and simulation experiments show that this research effectively improves the reliability of PBFT consensus nodes, improves the operating efficiency of the platform and the speed of block consensus, and saves data storage space.
