Automatic Differentiation‐Based Full Waveform Inversion With Flexible Workflows by Feng Liu, Haipeng Li, Guangyuan Zou, Junlun Li

“…The AD‐based framework not only includes forword modeling and associated gradient computations for wave equations in various types of media from isotropic acoustic to vertically or horizontally transverse isotropic elastic, but also incorporates a suite of objective functions, regularization techniques, and optimization algorithms. By leveraging state‐of‐the‐art AD, objective functions such as soft dynamic time warping and Wasserstein distance, which are difficult to apply in traditional FWI are also easily integrated into ADFWI. …”

Optimal strategy selection method for moving target defense based on signaling game by Lyu JIANG, Hengwei ZHANG, Jindong WANG

“…To solve the problem of the optimal strategy selection for moving target defense,the defense strategy was defined formally,the defense principle from the perspective of attack surface shifting and exploration surface enlarging was taken into account.Then,network attack-defense behaviors were analyzed from the sight of dynamic confrontation and bounded information.According to the analysis of attack-defense game types and confrontation process,the moving target defense model based on signaling game was constructed.Meanwhile,the method to quantify strategies was improved and the solution of perfect Bayesian equilibrium was proposed.Furthermore,the optimal defense strategy selection algorithm was designed by the equilibrium analysis.Finally,the simulation demonstrates the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed optimal strategy and selection method.…”

Inter-carrier interference cancellation using spatial characteristics for high-mobility OFDM communication systems by Wei WANG, Qin-ye YIN, Peng-cheng MU

“…High-mobility orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM)systems suffered severe inter-carrier interference(ICI)from Doppler spreading.On the basis of the characteristics of wireless propagation in practical scenarios,a method which employed the WINNER Ⅱ channel model to represent the practical wireless channel and an antenna array as the receiver to eliminate ICI in space-domain was proposed.The direction of arrival estimation algorithm and the beamforming network were used to separate the received signals in space-domain.Multi-beam diversity gain was obtained finally by means of combining the signals which have been compensated for Doppler frequency shifts(DFS)respectively.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method not only effectively reduces ICI and the error floors,but also obtains a 5～7 dB signal-to-interference gain over systems without use of the proposed method.…”
