2010, 32(9): 2039-2044. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01271
Abstract:
Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs) can real-time monitor, collect and process multimedia information. They have wide applications. Compared to other traditional sensor networks, WMSNs need more bandwidth to transmit multimedia information. However, the limited radio frequency spectrum appears more and more precious as the wireless communication devices are gaining momentum. Dynamic spectrum allocation can extend the spectrum used by wireless multimedia sensor networks and eliminate the interferences. In this paper, a novel method for spectrum sensing and management is proposed. So that WMSNs which are limited by energy and computation ability can sense spectrum environment via periodical rotation and communicate by available spare spectrum. Finally, the validity of proposed methods are proved by the experiment.

Li Li, Liu Yong-Pan, Yang Hua-Zhong, Wang Hui
2010, 32(9): 2045-2051. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01234
Abstract:
This paper analyzes convergence and acceleration issues of distributed consensus time synchronization protocols in wireless sensor networks. By mapping synchronization iterations to Markov domain, the upper and lower bounds of protocol convergence rate are deduced in circulant networks, which proves that the protocol convergence rate is related to node neighbor size and network size. Matlab simulation results in co-uniform regular networks and co-uniform networks indicate the same conclusion. Moreover, it is found that in co-uniform non-regular networks, the protocol convergence rate will also be affected by neighbor size distribution. So an accelerating algorithm is proposed, which improves the convergence rate of distributed consensus time synchronization protocols by adjusting neighbor size distribution. Experiment results show that in a 100-node co-uniform network, the proposed accelerating algorithm can reduce the iteration counts of the distributed consensus time synchronization protocols by 25%, without any significant variation of the average node transmission radius.

Sun Xiao-Yan, Li Jian-Dong, Chen Yan-Hui, Zhang Wen-Zhu, Yao Jun-Liang
2010, 32(9): 2052-2057. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01640
Abstract:
The research focus of this paper is to design a novel target tracking algorithm for binary sensor network (BSN). The weight in existing algorithms can not reflect the realtime relationship between target and sensing nodes. Distance weighted target tracking algorithm is proposed, in which the distance weight can reflect the realtime relationship between target and senisng nodes and thererfore has better performance than the existing algorithms. In distance weighted algorithm, sensing node should transmit both sensing information and distance information to the fusion center and consum more energy. Prediction-based distance weighted target tracking algorithm is provided, which can reduce energy consumption by the transmission of only sensing information. Simulation results show that prediction-based distance weighted algorithm can not only guarantee the tracking accuracy but also reduce energy consumption, compared with the existent algorithms.
Congestion Control Based on Queuing Delay and Packet Loss Probability
Xie Jun, Yu Lu, Jin Feng-Lin
2010, 32(9): 2058-2064. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01228
Abstract:
As a congestion measure, queuing delay has many advantages. But packet loss can not be completely avoided if only queuing delay is used as a congestion measure. When the buffer is not large enough and some packets are dropped, queuing delay can not accurately reflect network congestion. In this paper, a congestion control model is proposed based on queuing delay and packet loss rate, in which dual-mode control is used. When the buffer is large enough, queuing delay is used as a congestion measure, the model achieves stable dynamic properties and weighted proportional fairness among heterogeneous flows. When the buffer is not large enough and packet loss is inevitable, packet loss rate is used as a congestion measure, and the model maintains almost the same performance as when there is no packet loss. The model is stable as it switches between the two modes and the transition is smooth.
CoreRM: Cooperative Loss Recovery for Reliable Multicast in Ad hoc Networks
Huang Meng-Jie, Feng Gang, Zhang Yi-De
2010, 32(9): 2065-2071. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01054
Abstract:
Reliable multicast in Ad hoc networks is challenging due to high error rate, low bandwidth, limited node power, and highly dynamic topology changes. In this paper, an efficient loss recovery scheme is proposed for reliable multicast (CoreRM). The basic idea is to apply the notion of cooperative communication to support local loss recovery. According different packet loss cases, CoreRM tries to retrieve the lost packet through progressively cooperating with neighboring nodes, upstream nodes or source node. In order to minimize recovery latency and retransmission overhead, CoreRM caches not only data packets but also the path which could be used for future possible packet recovery. In CoreRM, upstream nodes suppress duplicate NAKs to tackle feedback implosion. Both analytical and simulation results reveal that CoreRM significantly improves the multicast performance in terms of throughput and recovery latency compared with UDP and PGM.

Ma Lu, Li Li-Min, Hu Ze-Xin, Liang Xu-Wen
2010, 32(9): 2072-2076. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01440
Abstract:
In the LEO satellite spectrum sensing, choosing a proper frequency resolution for detecting the energy is very crucial. A too high resolution fails to detect spectrum holes which probably exist, while a too low one adds the computation and misjudges the jitter in frequency-domain as holes. Moreover, because backward-link sensing data need to be transferred to ground stations to do synthesis and detection, it is obvious that the smaller the quantity of data is, the easier for it to be transmitted. In order to improve the detecting accuracy and to reduce transmitting information, this paper proposes a LEO satellite spectrum sensing based on the multi-resolution signal decomposition. The simulation of this technology concludes that in backward sensing data transmission, multi-resolution signal decomposition can keep well shape of power spectral density function while largely decreasing spectrum sensing data. Besides, in the process of spectrum hole detecting, compared to fixed-resolution detecting, this technology can raise greatly the convergence rate of spectrum hole location and meantime reduce statistical error of holes.

Abstract:
In order to improve the sum-rate of Two-way relay system, this paper proposes a Bi-directional Relay Selection (BRS) scheme in Two-way AF relay system. This scheme selects the optimal relay through joint considering the receive SNR (Signal Noise Rate) at the relay node and the channel gain between relay and destination node; Furthermore, this paper proposes two optimal power allocation scheme in Two-way relay system: (1) Optimal Power Allocation scheme based on Convex Optimization (OPA-CO), (2) Optimal Power Allocation scheme based on the Differences of Channel Gains (OPA-DCG); Scheme (1) establishes the optimal issue that how to maximize the sum-rate of Two-way relay system when total power is limited; Scheme (2) establishes a mathematical optimal model that how to maximize the increment of sum-rate based on the differences of channels gains. This paper uses an iterative power allocation algorithm to solve the optimal model mentioned above for the purpose of reducing the complexity of solving convex optimal mode. Simulation result shows that all the schemes mentioned above can improve the sum-rate.

Zeng Qi, Peng Dai-Yuan
2010, 32(9): 2083-2088. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01158
Abstract:
A novel hybrid communications system, i.e., coherent Frequency-Hopping CDMA (FH/CDMA) system with Maximum Rate Combining (MRC) diversity reception and multicarrier scheme, is analyzed in Rayleigh fading channel. Due to the introduction of phase modulation, the phase precision in recovering carrier will affect on the system performance. The carrier recovery is implemented with the first-order Phase-Locked Loop (PLL) in the presence of AWGN in carrier recovery the loop, where the resulting steady-state phase error is appeared. The average Bit Error Rate (BER) of the ideal and the partial coherent FH/CDMA system are derived with means of Beaulieu series and characteristic function. Simulation results demonstrate that the BER performance of multi-user system is less susceptive to phase error and the dominating degradation is due to Multiple-Access Interference (MAI), compared to the single-user system. It is also shown that the effect of phase error and fading channel can be reduced by MRC reception more efficiently.

Improved CPHD Filter for Multitarget Tracking
OuYang-Cheng , Ji Hong-Bing, Zhang Jun-Gen
2010, 32(9): 2112-2118. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01197
Abstract:
The Cardinalized Probability Hypothesis Density (CPHD) fiter is a recursive Bayesian algorithm for estimating multiple target states with varying target number in clutter. Due to the fact that there is a missed detection problem in the CPHD filter, an improved algorithm is proposed, which provides a closed-form solution under Gaussian mixture assumptions. Firstly, the estimate to track association is made by labeling each Gaussian component, and then the weights of Gaussian components having been pruned and merged are reassigned twice. At first, the Gaussian components weights exceeding the detection threshold are reassigned, which can solve the missed detection issue effectively, and then the second distribution is made based on the fact that a target can only have one measurement, which improves the performance when the targets cross each other. Simulation results show that the improved CPHD filter has advantages over the ordinary one in both the aspects of multi-target state estimation and track maintenance.

Chen Jian-Jun, Aa Guo-Cheng, ZHang Suo-Fei, Wu Zhen-Yang
2010, 32(9): 2119-2125. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01245
Abstract:
Small scale target tracking is one of the primary difficulties in visual tracking. Two major problems in mean shift small target tracking algorithm are presented in this paper, namely tracking interrupt and target losing. To tackle these problems, the Parzen windows density estimation method is modified to interpolate the histogram of the target candidate. The Kullback-Leibler distance is employed as a new similarity measure function of the target model and the target candidate. And its corresponding weight computation and new location expressions are derived. On the basis of these works, a new mean shift algorithm is proposed for small target tracking. Several tracking experiments for real world video sequences show that the proposed algorithm can track the target successively and accurately. It can successfully track very small targets with only 612 pixels.
Localized Graph-cuts Based Multiphase Active Contour Model for Image Segmentation
Kong Ding-Ke, Wang Guo-Zhao
2010, 32(9): 2126-2132. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01129
Abstract:
Geometric active contour is used as a powerful tool to address image segmentation problems. Recently, a new region-based active contour model based on pairwise similarity between pixels, i.e., Graph Portioning Active Contours (GPAC) is presented, and well adapted to segment images with intensity homogeneity. However, it only takes spectral similarity as the cost function between vertices, and can not obtain satisfactory segmentation results for low contrast images with weak boundaries. In order to overcoming this limitation of GPAC model, a novel localized graph-cuts based multiphase active contours model using geodesic kernel based cost function is proposed. Experimental results of natural images verify that the model is efficient and accurate.

Yang Dan, Li Bo, Zhao Hong
2010, 32(9): 2139-2144. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01323
Abstract:
This paper describes a novel optimization framework for visual codebook generation. Firstly, the Condition Number (CN) is applied to evaluate the stability of initial visual features, and the well conditioned features are preserved by eliminating the bad ones. At the mean time, an adaptive algorithm to generate low-dimensional visual words is proposed by studying the relationship between clustering and dimension-reducing. In order to overcome the popular LBG codebook design algorithm suffers from local optimality and is sensitive to the initial solution, a parameter called neighborhood-support for each feature is calculated according to clustering structure, which is used to select initial visual words adaptively. Finally, the rational distortion function is redefined using Silhouette. Compared with traditional algorithm, the presented algorithm has excellent properties at simultaneous clustering and dimension reduction, good robustness and adaptive optimization. A good performance (73.46% classification rate) of application this method to 13-Scene classification is obtained by using Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (PLSA).

2010, 32(9): 2145-2150. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01505
Abstract:
To implement fault detection under large-scale, strong dynamic, high reliability required network environments, the traditional fault message dissemination would encounter network congestion, latency instability etc.. A fault detection protocol based on self-organized neighborhood construction is proposed, and agent nodes are chosen to implement detection between neighborhoods. In every single zone, a random dissemination fault detection algorithm called Self-Organized Neighborhood Fault Detection Protocol (SONFDP) is designed. This protocol can avoid network congestion caused by flood, reduce the network overhead and extend the scalability of fault detection. Meanwhile, a mechanism of redundant message avoidance is designed to further reduce the number of messages generated by detection. SONFDP is proven to be correct and effective by relevant mathematical analysis and experiments.

2010, 32(9): 2151-2155. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01346
Abstract:
In order to improve recovery accuracy for compressed sensing, a Stagewise Weak selection Modifying approximation Conjugate Gradient Pursuit (StWMCGP) algorithm is proposed in this paper. This algorithm modifies the direction in the directional pursuit algorithm and clearly presents a stopping criterion to search the indices of elements and get a set. Then the evaluation of sparse signal is obtained by using Least-squares algorithm and the set. Simulated results show that for the same sparsity level, the number of measurements needed by the algorithm is about 20% less than that needed by MP or StOMP-FDR to exactly recover. When recovering two-dimensional image signal, the recovery accuracy of this algorithm is about 1% higher than that of BCS or StOMP-FAR.

Li Hong, Qin Yu-Liang, Li Yan-Peng, Wang Hong-Qiang, Li Xiang
2010, 32(9): 2156-2160. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01364
Abstract:
The precise passive locating and tracking technology for a single observer demands high accuracy estimation of Doppler frequency rate produced by the radial acceleration between the target and the observer from the received signals. The frequency rate cannot denote the Doppler frequency rate for the PSK signal. A phase compensation based algorithm for Doppler frequency rate estimation from BPSK coherent pulse train is presented to conquer the problem. Both the fixed and alterable pulse repetition frequency (PRF) cases are considered. The limitation between the Doppler frequency rate and the sampling frequency, the observing time and the PRF is given. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm achieves a 4~6 dB lower SNR threshold than the known ones in the typical condition.

2010, 32(9): 2161-2166. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01204
Abstract:
Due to the density model selection problem of amplitudes in each range cells for radar target recognition using High-Resolution Range Profile (HRRP), a radar target recognition approach based on the semiparametric density estimation is proposed in this paper. Starting with the parametric density estimation, semiparametric method has the ability to make use of empirical knowledge which is known as the approximate Gamma distribution of amplitudes in each HRRP range cells, and the Gamma density estimate is then corrected by multiplying with a nonparametric estimation of a correction factor. Obviously, both advantages of parametric method and nonparametric method are merged in the semiparametric density estimation. Simulation results based on the HRRP dataset of five aircraft models demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

2010, 32(9): 2172-2178. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01102
Abstract:
In this paper, an approach, based on sub-band synthesis and general facet model, is proposed for Ultra- WideBand (UWB) radar ground clutter modeling, simulation and analysis of clutter statistics in the case of different incident angle and relative bandwidth is respectively proposed. Firstly, the facet is divided into a series of small segments (called general facet) according to ground shape; UWB radar work bandwidth is splited into a bank of sub-bands (narrow-bands). The second step is to obtain the individual facet clutter backscattering coefficient (0) from the sub-bands. Finally, the method of sub-band synthesis is utilized to get UWB radar ground clutter model. According to clutter simulation, it is found that the UWB radar ground clutter Probability Density Function (PDF) curve varies with the fluctuation of incident angle or relative bandwidth. However, UWB radar PDF curve is characteristic of low barycenter and fat tail, furthermore, the tail become more heavy when the relative bandwidth of UWB radar increase. Simulation results show that the method of frequency splitting and sub-bands synthesis is feasible.

2010, 32(9): 2179-2183. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01459
Abstract:
An algorithm combined MUSIC with ESPRIT for angle estimation based on two- or four-order statistics in bistatic MIMO radar system is presented in this paper. The proposed method based on two-order expectation is under the spatial Gaussian white noise environment and four-order cumulant the colored noise. By exploiting MUSIC with one-sensor owing to its extended array aperture and ESPRIT with two-sensor via the rotational invariance property of signal-subspace at the receive end, the Direction Of Departures (DODs) and Direction Of Arrivals (DOAs) of the targets can be estimated separately and paired automatically. The computational burden can be reduced since two-dimensional parameter estimation has been separated into two one-dimensional forms. Numerical results are presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of the method advanced.

Abstract:
The Forward Scattering Radar (FSR) can obtain moving target profile image with the technology of Shadow Inverse Synthetic Aperture Radar (SISAR), which can be used as target classification and identification. In order to research the effect of multi-polarization on moving target identification in FSR, the following work is carried out. Firstly, based on the theory of SISAR, the connection between forward scattering Radar Cross Section (RCS) and spectral information of profile image is established. Secondly, multi-polarization is firstly introduced to FSR target identification, and the target forward scattering RCS under multi-polarization conditions is obtained using the software of CST. Finally, by analyzing the simulation results, it is found that the same target has a different forward scattering RCS side-lobe under different polarization conditions. This difference corresponds to the difference of target profile image. The more information of target profile can be obtained using joint multi-polarization. The simulation results verify that multi-polarization can improve the ability of target classification and identification in FSR.

Abstract:
A method for multi-target localization based on polynomial rooting is developed in bistatic MIMO radar.

Then the polynomial rooting technique is employed to determine the 1-D direction. The proposed method avoids the conventional 2-D spectrum peak searching, and the estimated parameters are automatically paired without additional paring computation. Moreover the maximum number of targets resolved by this method is no smaller than the number of array elements. Numerical results verify the effectiveness of this method.

Finally the noise sensitivity of the solution process is reduced by integer ambiguity recognition algorithm. The testing results show that the success rate of GPS attitude determination of the proposed algorithm increases greatly over that of the original algorithm while the restriction on public clocks is eliminated.

Abstract:
For the limited processing, storage and energy of network nodes in the wireless sensor network environment, a distributed JPEG2000 coding algorithm based on mobile agent is proposed. Multiple network nodes are utilized to the image distributed coding and mobile Agent mechanism is used to communicate among network nodes.

Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm is better communication capability of network nodes while the quality of the image is invariant after the coding, and can achieve a good balance of the network energy consumption and prolong the network life cycle 3 times as before.

2010, 32(9): 2249-2252. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01260
Abstract:
Certificateless signcryption key encapsulation mechanism (CLSC-KEM), combined with a data encapsulation mechanism, is used to construct certificateless hybrid signcryption . This paper introduces a new concept: certificateless signcryption KEM to multiple recipients (mCLSC-KEM). The definition and the security models are given for this new primitive, and a concrete mCLSC-KEM scheme is presented. This scheme is much more efficient than the generic construction, for it needs to compute only one pairing during key encapsulation and one symmetric encryption during data encapsulation, in contrast to n pairings and n symmetric encryptions for the generic scheme. Our scheme is provably secure in the random oracle model, under the hardness assumption of the Gap-BDH problem.

Liu Jin-Mang, Ji Hong-Bing, Fan Zhen-Hua, Zhang Ya-Xun
2010, 32(9): 2253-2257. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2010.00145
Abstract:
Only the angle information of the targets can be obtained by infrared single-station. It is hard to get the distance information, which makes it impossible to track 3D objects in rectangular coordinates. A new algorithm is proposed for estimating the tracking parameters of bearings-only measurements, which avoids the complexity of traditional multi-station cross-location algorithms. According to the characteristics of high measurement rate by infrared sensors, azimuth sequences, obtained by an infrared single-station sensor, are utilized to measure the track parameters. Target tracking problems for single station could be solved effectively in such bearing-only mode. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has good filtering performance in tracking maneuvering targets, as well as the targets with straight-line motion.

2010, 32(9): 2263-2267. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01256
Abstract:
In consideration of the the issue of the weakness performance of Compressive Sensing (CS) ISAR imaging under low SNR condition, an improved CS method is proposed in this paper. Energy based threshold is proposed to identify range cells containing only noise, a coherent projection in cross-range to improve the SNR of measurements then a iterative re-weighting norm optimization is applied to enhance the signal recovery while reject noise. Moreover, an advantage of this robustness is the ability to produce a high quality image and is suitable for ISAR imaging by using very limited echoes under strong noise and clutter. Experimental result of real data processing verifies the proposed methods capability of depressing noise or clutter and extracting strong scatterers to construct high resolution image. In the experiment, high quality image can be generated by using only 16 pulses and its robustness is confirmed too.

Abstract:
Raw data compression is an important step for high resolution SAR systems. This paper bases on two data compression methods, the 4 bit quantization and the 8 to 3 bit Block Adaptive Quantization (BAQ), which are widely used in spaceborne SAR, the evaluations are made on the Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), the fidelity of the amplitude, and the vision effects of the images under different quantization input power. From the evaluations, the reasonable power regions of the quantization input for 4 bit and 8:3 bit BAQ are provided, which are 26.1 dB~34.9 dB and 23.5 dB~36.5 dB, respectively. This offers a good reference to the Manual Gain Control (MGC) value for the SAR mission.

2010, 32(9): 2282-2286. doi: 10.3724/SP.J.1146.2009.01021
Abstract:
Conventional filters always suffer from the interference of its spurious bands, which leads to poor stopband in high frequency range. With the development of ultra-wide band radar system and ultra-wide band communication system, filters with minitype and wide-stopband become an urgent technique challenge. In this paper, a general design of miniature filter with ultra-wide stopband based on open-stub T-shaped structure is demonstrated. Comparing with conventional filters, this type of filters have compact structure, good passband characteristics and its spurious bands whtiin the fifth order harmonic frequency range are all suppressed. A lowpass filter with cutoff frequency at 2.9GHz is designed with the proposed structure. The measured average insertion loss is only 0.67dB, average VSWR is only 1.33. Its transition band is steep and its 40dB square ratio is 1.096. The measured 36dB stopband ranges from 3.23GHz to 10.30GHz and 27dB stopband ranges from 10.30GHz to 15GHz. Moreover, its length is only 37.1% of the conventional substitutional filter, with much less area and more compact layout. The simulated and measured results indicate that this open-stub T-shaped filter satisfies the demand of both minitype and wide-stopband.
