Robust resource allocation algorithm for multicarrier NOMA security communication system by Yu ZHANG, Xiongwen ZHAO, Xiaoqing WANG, Suiyan GENG, Peng QIN, Zhenyu ZHOU

“…To improve the spectrum efficiency and enhance the information security of wireless network, a sum secrecy rate maximization-based robust resource allocation algorithm was proposed for a downlink multicarrier NOMA security communication system.Firstly, the artificial noise (AN) precoding vector was designed to be orthogonal to the legitimate channel, so that the legitimate transmission would not be affected by the AN.Then, considering the constraints of rate requirement of each user and the maximum transmit power of base station, a joint AN precoding, downlink data precoding and subcarrier allocation optimization problem was formulated under eavesdropping channel uncertainties.To solve that non-convex problem, it was decomposed into two joint optimization subproblems: precoding optimization and subcarrier allocation.The former was solved based on S-procedure and block coordinate descent (BCD) algorithm, the latter was solved by dynamic matching theory.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed algorithm has good robustness and can effectively improve the sum secrecy rate.…”

Improving Knowledge about Snow by Crossing Qualitative and Quantitative Data from the Everest Region (Nepal) by Ornella Puschiasis, Marie Savéan, Pierre Chevallier, Joëlle Smadja, Olivia Aubriot, François Delclaux

“…Although quantitative and qualitative data show a similar decrease in snowfall in the Upper Khumbu Valley, which is taken as a case study, there are discrepancies that highlight the uncertainties present in the two data sets. This method of crossing data from different disciplines proves very useful for mountain areas where meteorological stations and precise surveys are lacking, and where the wealth of local people’s knowledge is not sufficiently taken into account.…”
