Information-Dispersion-Entropy-Based Blind Recognition of Binary BCH Codes in Soft Decision Situations

A method of blind recognition of the coding parameters for binary Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) codes is proposed in this paper. We consider an intelligent communication receiver which can blindly recognize the coding parameters of the received data stream. The only knowledge is that the stream is encoded using binary BCH codes, while the coding parameters are unknown. The problem can be addressed on the context of the non-cooperative communications or adaptive coding and modulations (ACM) for cognitive radio networks. The recognition processing includes two major procedures: code length estimation and generator polynomial reconstruction. A hard decision method has been proposed in a previous literature. In this paper we propose the recognition approach in soft decision situations with Binary-Phase-Shift-Key modulations and Additive-White-Gaussian-Noise (AWGN) channels. The code length is estimated by maximizing the root information dispersion entropy function. And then we search for the code roots to reconstruct the primitive and generator polynomials. By utilizing the soft output of the channel, the recognition performance is improved and the simulations show the efficiency of the proposed algorithm.

Probabilistic Teleportation via Quantum Channel with Partial Information

Two novel schemes are proposed to teleport an unknown two-level quantum state probabilistically when the sender and the receiver only have partial information about the quantum channel, respectively. This is distinct from the fact that either the sender or the receiver has entire information about the quantum channel in previous schemes for probabilistic teleportation. Theoretical analysis proves that these schemes are straightforward, efficient and cost-saving. The concrete realization procedures of our schemes are presented in detail, and the result shows that our proposals could extend the application range of probabilistic teleportation.

Blind identification of convolutional encoder parameters.

This paper gives a solution to the blind parameter identification of a convolutional encoder. The problem can be addressed in the context of the noncooperative communications or adaptive coding and modulations (ACM) for cognitive radio networks. We consider an intelligent communication receiver which can blindly recognize the coding parameters of the received data stream. The only knowledge is that the stream is encoded using binary convolutional codes, while the coding parameters are unknown. Some previous literatures have significant contributions for the recognition of convolutional encoder parameters in hard-decision situations. However, soft-decision systems are applied more and more as the improvement of signal processing techniques. In this paper we propose a method to utilize the soft information to improve the recognition performances in soft-decision communication systems. Besides, we propose a new recognition method based on correlation attack to meet low signal-to-noise ratio situations. Finally we give the simulation results to show the efficiency of the proposed methods.

Dynamic Digital Channelizer Based on Spectrum Sensing.

The ability to efficiently channelize a received signal with dynamic sub-channel bandwidths is a key requirement of software defined radio (SDR) systems. The digital channelizer, which is used to split the received signal into a number of sub-channels, plays an important role in SDR systems. In this paper, a design of dynamic digital channelizer is presented. The proposed method is novel in that it employs a cosine modulated filter bank (CMFB) to divide the received signal into multiple frequency sub-bands and a spectrum sensing technique, which is mostly used in cognitive radio, is introduced to detect the presence of signal of each sub-band. The method of spectrum sensing is carried out based on the eigenvalues of covariance matrix of received signal. The ratio of maximum-minimum eigenvalue of each sub-band is vulnerable to noise fluctuation. This paper suggests an optimized method to calculate the ratio of maximum-minimum eigenvalue. The simulation results imply that the design of digital channelizer can effectively separate the received signal with dynamically changeable sub-channel signals.

High-Speed Packet Classification with Efficient Parallel Range Match for IP Network Applications

Packet classification has been critical data path function for supporting quality of service (QoS), resource reservation protocol (RSVP) and broad range of multimedia services. Hardware based solution is necessary to keep up with high-speed rate up to OC192 processing. However, the range match in multi-fields classification is still one of the bottleneck problems. In this paper, a novel structure called range match block is designed. The range match block stores range rules directly and performs range match parallel in each entry at high-speed. Experimental results show the range match block can process about 66.7 million packets per second (Mpps). Furthermore, we propose a multi-field packet classification architecture based on range match block and ternary CAM. The architecture is well-suited for all kinds of network applications.

Blind Demodulation of Chaotic Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum Signals Based on Particle Filters

Applying the particle filter (PF) technique, this paper proposes a PF-based algorithm to blindly demodulate the chaotic direct sequence spread spectrum (CDS-SS) signals under the colored or non-Gaussian noises condition. To implement this algorithm, the PFs are modified by (i) the colored or non-Gaussian noises are formulated by autoregressive moving average (ARMA) models, and then the parameters that model the noises are included in the state vector; (ii) the range-differentiating factor is imported into the intruder’s chaotic system equation. Since the range-differentiating factor is able to make the inevitable chaos fitting error advantageous based on the chaos fitting method, thus the CDS-SS signals can be demodulated according to the range of the estimated message. Simulations show that the proposed PF-based algorithm can obtain a good bit-error rate performance when extracting the original binary message from the CDS-SS signals without any knowledge of the transmitter’s chaotic map, or initial value, even when colored or non-Gaussian noises exist.

Using Multidimensional ADTPE and SVM for Optical Modulation Real-Time Recognition

Based on the feature extraction of multidimensional asynchronous delay-tap plot entropy (ADTPE) and multiclass classification of support vector machine (SVM), we propose a method for recognition of multiple optical modulation formats and various data rates. We firstly present the algorithm of multidimensional ADTPE, which is extracted from asynchronous delay sampling pairs of modulated optical signal. Then, a multiclass SVM is utilized for fast and accurate classification of several widely-used optical modulation formats. In addition, a simple real-time recognition scheme is designed to reduce the computation time. Compared to the existing method based on asynchronous delay-tap plot (ADTP), the theoretical analysis and simulation results show that our recognition method can effectively enhance the tolerance of transmission impairments, obtaining relatively high accuracy. Finally, it is further demonstrated that the proposed method can be integrated in an optical transport network (OTN) with flexible expansion. Through simply adding the corresponding sub-SVM module in the digital signal processer (DSP), arbitrary new modulation formats can be recognized with high recognition accuracy in a short response time.

Breaking Chaotic Direct Sequence Spreading Spectrum Signals Under the Multipath Fading Channel

In order to break chaotic direct sequence spreading spectrum (CD3S) signals under the multipath fading channel, a particle filter based algorithm combining blind channel equalization with chaos fitting is proposed. To implement this algorithm, the intruder substitutes a different chaotic equation into the state-space equations of the channel and the chaos fitting, and then multiple particle filters are used for blind channel equalization and chaos fitting simultaneously by implementing them in reciprocal interaction. As a result, the impact brought about by the multipath fading channel and additive noises can be overcome. Furthermore, the range-differentiating factor is used to make the inevitable chaos fitting error advantageous based on the chaos fitting method. Thus, the CD3S signals can be broken according to the range of the estimated message. Simulations show that the binary message signal can be extracted from the CD3S signals without any knowledge of the chaotic transmitter’s structure, parameters, initial value, or the channel characteristics.

In this protocol, the master controller uses differential signals to transmit control command and to communicate with the executive units.
