Node clustered deployment of emergency Internet of things based on UAV with equipment access restriction by Wei WANG, Yajing LIANG, Li PENG, Zhongcheng WEI, Jijun ZHAO

“…Lack of ground base station in emergency Internet of things for public security application scenarios, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) as the air-based base station was adopted to solve the problem of node cluster deployment under the condition of limited access of emergency Internet of things ground terminal equipment.A clustering deployment method based on on-demand K-means (ODKM) was proposed.Firstly, base station selection and equipment clustering were carried out according to the equipment access ability of different UAV air-based base stations through two clustering steps.Secondly, by solving a relaxed non convex nonlinear optimization model, the UAV air-based base station deployment based on energy efficiency optimization was realized.The experimental results show that the proposed method can meet the constraints of UAV base station access ability, and has a good performance in balancing the transmission energy consumption of each cluster, and realizes the goal of communication energy saving when the ground terminal equipment needs to access.…”

Joint power control for untrusted relay cooperation-based confidential communication by Wen-jiang FENG, Wei-heng JIANG, Yi-na DENG, Yang YUAN

“…The scenario that multiple cell-edge mobile stations (MS) all without direct-links to the base station (BS) but have confidential messages in the uplink in the presence of untrusted relay (UR) cooperation was considered.In order to implement the secure communication between BS and multiple MS，destination-based jamming (DBJ) scheme was adopted.With the assumption that all MS had fixed transmit power，the joint UR and BS power control which aims at maximizing system sum secrecy rate was discussed.For this problem，analysis indicated that it was equivalent to joint access control and power allocation problem thus its NP-hard.Through problem relaxation，a suboptimal MS access control and alternatively power allocation algorithm was provided.This algorithm is proved to have polynomial complexity and can converge to at least a suboptimal solution for original problem.Simulation results show that compared with the benchmark algorithms，the proposed suboptimal algorithm is better in the achievable secrecy rate performance.…”
