LMDI decomposition analysis of total electricity consumption growth in Hunan province

In the past decade, as an important driving force of economic growth, the China’s electricity consumption growth rate has been decoupled from GDP growth rate. The economic reasons behind this abnormal phenomenon are worthy of further study. Based on the LMDI method, this paper built a model to decompose the total electricity consumption in Hunan province from 2010 to 2017 from the industrial and residential perspective. The results showed that: integrally, scale effect was the main driving factor of electricity consumption growth, intensity effect was the main inhibiting factor, and structure effect had no obvious influence; there are significant differences between the results of industrial and residential sectors, for the industry, the productive consumption intensity effect was the most significant factor that inhibited the growth of electricity consumption, while all the effects of residential sector were shown as promotion, and the increase of electricity consumption in the residential sector played a key role in the growth rate of electricity consumption in Hunan province

Low-Complexity Online Calibration for Large-Scale Multi-Beam Antennas

High-throughput satellite communication based on large-scale multi-beam antennas is a promising technology for sixth-generation (6G) mobile networks. Conventional online calibration methods for large-scale antennas after satellite launch are restricted by communication signals. This paper proposes an online calibration method of amplitude and phase errors without disturbing the normal communication traffic. Two important aspects of calibration are discussed, i.e., closed-form expressions of calibration accuracy and hardware complexity. Simulation results show that theoretical approximation results are close to simulation results when the number of antennas is less than half of the code length. The relative amplitude and phase performance deteriorate by 6.12 dB and 40.96 deg, respectively, when the power is lower than the reference 20 dB. Finally, a calibration experimental system with eight beams is built for verification
