Efficiency analysis of distributed power combining for mobile platform by Wenbo GUO, Jiaxin DU, Jian YANG, Mu YAN, Hongzhi ZHAO, Shihai SHAO

“…Aiming at the position perturbation of mobile platform, the impact of position perturbation was analyzed on distributed power combining efficiency.The model of distributed power combining with position perturbation was established, and the average far-field beampattern, complementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) expressions and the approximate expression of 3 dB beamwidth were derived.The results show that intensified position perturbation can lead to continuous deterioration of the average far-field beampattern, peak power, 3 dB beamwidth, and CCDF of distributed power combining.When the position perturbation reaches 9% of the signal wavelength, the signal peak power of the mobile platform after distributed power combining decreases to 90% of its theoretical upper limit.…”

COM-MABs: From Users' Feedback to Recommendation by Alexandre Letard, Tassadit Amghar, Olivier Camp, Nicolas Gutowski

“…In systems interacting with humans, those reinforcement learning approaches use a feedback strategy as their reward function. On the study of those strategies, this paper present three contributions: 1) We model a feedback strategy as a three-step process, where each step influences the performances of an agent ; 2) Based on this model, we propose a novel Reward Computing process, BUSBC, which significantly increases the global accuracy reached by optimistic COM-MAB algorithms -- up to 16.2\% -- ; 3) We conduct an empirical analysis of our approach and several feedback strategies from the literature on three real-world application datasets, confirming our propositions.…”
