EM-based blind LDPC identification in multipath channels by Yu LIU, Fanggang WANG, Jingwen ZHANG, Bo AI, Zhangdui ZHONG

“…As the advent of cognitive radios,blind encoder identification has attracted increasingly attentions since it plays an important role.The existing works mainly focus on additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel,while the blind identification in multipath scenarios has not been sufficiently investigated.Considering the blind low density parity-check (LDPC) codes identification in the presence of unknown multipath fading channel,a likelihood-based classifier was proposed using the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm to obtain the maximum likelihood estimates of the unknown parameters.Then,an average log-likelihood ratio (LLR) estimator was adopted to classify the unknown encoder.Numerical results show that the proposed algorithm provides promising identification performance in multipath channels,especially in the low signal-to-noise ratio region.…”

Charge and discharge scheduling method for large-scale electric vehicles in V2G mode via MLGCSO by Songling Pang, Kaidi Fan, Meiyi Huo

“…Abstract This paper addresses the challenge of charging and discharging scheduling for large-scale electric vehicles (EVs) in the Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) mode by proposing a user-oriented scheduling algorithm. First, a large-scale EV charging and discharging scheduling model grounded in the V2G mode is developed, where the objective function mainly focuses on the load variance at the user side and the charging and discharging costs for EV owners, and constraints such as the available time of EVs, charging and discharging power limits, available state of charge values, and upper and lower bounds of real-time prices are incorporated to make the model more applicable to practical engineering scenarios. …”

Methods of Developing Strategies for Municipalities by Yu. N. Lapygin, D. V. Tulinova

“…The article is devoted to the procedures for constructing a strategy for the development of municipalities in the Russian Federation, both in terms of considering the formation of approaches to shaping the prospects for possible changes, and with respect to methods that allow us to determine the future on the basis of a set of strategically significant goals that are formed based on the results of constructing the target configurator.The goal is to compare different points of view on the organization of methodological support for the process of formulating the strategy itself and determining its main content and, as a result, to show the author’s version of the algorithm for constructing the strategy slogan and filling it with the content of strategic projects and programs.Methods for constructing mental maps were used, including the tools for analyzing the situation, forming a hierarchy of strategic goals, and determining the main content of the strategy for the development of the municipal formation.It is shown that in the scientific literature the controversy continues about the algorithms, methods, models and tools for the development of the strategy for the development of municipalities, and universal methods for developing strategies have not been worked out.The structure of strategic goals is determined as a result of the analysis of the factors of the external and internal environment, as a result of the analysis of the existing strategy of the municipal entity (legal or illegal), as the concretization of the Vision and the Mission. and also as an orientation to the reference variants of goal-setting in the municipality. …”
