In this letter, we consider robust beamforming optimization for a multiuser multiple-input single-output system with simultaneous wireless information and power transmission (SWIPT) for the case of imperfect channel state information. Adopting the ellipsoidal uncertainty on channel vector, the robust beamforming design are reformulated as convex semi-definite programming (SDP) by rank-one relaxation. To reduce the complexity, an ellipsoidal uncertainty on channel covariance is studied to derive the equivalent form of original problem. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.

Unlike black-box cryptography, an adversary in a white-box security model has full access to the implementation of the cryptographic algorithm. Thus, white-box implementation of cryptographic algorithms is more practical. Nevertheless, in recent years, there is no white-box implementation for public key cryptography. In this paper, we propose the first white-box implementation of the identity-based signature scheme in the IEEE P1363 standard. Our main idea is to hide the private key to multiple lookup tables, so that the private key cannot be leaked during the algorithm executed in the untrusted environment. We prove its security in both black-box and white-box models. We also evaluate the performance of our white-box implementations, in order to demonstrate utility for real-world applications.

This paper presents an X-band power-combined pulsed high power amplifier (HPA) based on the low insertion loss waveguide combiner. Relationships between the return loss and isolation of the magic Tee (MT) have been analyzed and the accurate design technique is given. The combination network is validated by the measurement of a single MT and a four-way passive network, and the characterization of the combined HPA module is designed, fabricated and discussed. The HPA delivers 200W output power with an associated power-added efficiency close to 40% within the frequency range of 7.8 GHz to 12.3 GHz. The combination efficiency is higher than 93%.

We propose the node name routing (NNR) strategy for information-centric ad-hoc networks based on the named-node networking (3N). This strategy is especially valuable for use in disaster areas because, when the Internet is out of service during a disaster, our strategy can be used to set up a self-organizing network via cell phones or other terminal devices that have a sharing ability, and it does not rely on a base station (BS) or similar providers. Our proposed strategy can solve the multiple-name problem that has arisen in prior 3N proposals, as well as the dead loop problems in both 3N ad-hoc networks and TCP/IP ad-hoc networks. To evaluate the NNR strategy, it is compared with the optimized link state routing protocol (OLSR) and the dynamic source routing (DSR) strategy. Computer-based comprehensive simulations showed that our NNR proposal exhibits a better performance in this environment when all of the users are moving randomly. We further observed that with a growing number of users, our NNR protocol performs better in terms of packet delivery, routing cost, etc.

This letter proposes a novel modulation classification method for overlapped sources named LRGP involving multinomial logistic regression (MLR) and multi-gene genetic programming (MGGP). MGGP based feature engineering is conducted to transform the cumulants of the received signals into highly discriminative features and a MLR based classifier is trained to identify the combination of the modulation formats of the overlapped sources instead of signal separation. Extensive simulations demonstrate that LRGP yields superior performance compared with existing methods.

Information Centric Networking (ICN) had merits in terms of mobility, security, power consumption and network traffic. When a large-scale disaster occurred, the current communication system might be fragile and the server based network service might be unavailable due to the damages, network congestions, and power failure, etc. In this paper, we proposed an ICN based Disaster Information Sharing Service (DISS) [1], [2] system. DISS could provide robust information sharing service. Users could publish disaster information as a content message with the help of our DISS. In addition, by utilizing DISS's message naming strategy, users could retrieve disaster information even without a server connection. The ICN based DISS could reduce the probability of network congestion when a large number of simultaneous connections occurring. It could provide server-less service in poor network condition. DISS allows users retrieve disaster information from terminals or ICN nodes. During disasters, sharing information timely and effective could protect people from disaster, ensure people's safety.

Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) communication has drawn rising interest recently with the distinctive gains brought by its inherent mobility. In this paper, we investigate the throughput maximization problem in UAV-enabled uplink communication, where multiple ground nodes communicate with a UAV while a group of ground jammers send jamming signals to jam the communications between UAV and the ground nodes. In contrast to the previous works that only considering UAV's transmit power allocation and two-dimension (2D) trajectory design, the ground nodes' transmit power allocation and scheduling along with the UAV's three-dimensional (3D) trajectory design are jointly optimized. The formulated throughput maximization problem is a mixed-integer non-convex programme that hard to be solved in general. Thus, we propose an iterative algorithm to make the problem trackable by applying the block coordinate descent and successive convex optimization techniques. Simulation results show that our proposed algorithm outperforms the benchmark methods that improving the throughput of the system significantly.
