Carrier Sense Random Packet CDMA Protocol in Dual-Channel Networks
Code resource wastage is caused by the reason that many hopping frequency (FH) sequences are unused, which occurs under the condition that the number of the actual subnets needed for the tactical network is far smaller than the networking capacity of code division net¬working. Dual-channel network (DCN), consisting of one single control channel and multiple data channels, can solve the code resource wastage effectively. To improve the anti-jamming capability of the control channel of DCN, code division multiple access (CDMA) technology was introduced, and a carrier sense random packet (CSRP) CDMA protocol based on random packet CDMA (RP-CDMA) was proposed. In CSRP-CDMA, we provide a carrier sensing random packet mechanism and a packet-segment acknowledgement policy. Furthermore, an analytical model was developed to evaluate the performance of CSRP-CDMA networks. In this model, the impacts of multi-access interference from both inter-clusters and intra-clusters were analyzed, and the mathematical expressions of packet transmission success probability, normalized network throughput and signal interference to noise ratio, were also derived. Analytical and simulation results demonstrate that the normalized network throughput of CSRP-CDMA outperforms traditional RP-CDMA by 10%, which can guarantee the resource utilization efficiency of the control channel in DCNs
Coherent output of photons from coupled superconducting transmission line resonators controlled by charge qubits
We study the coherent control of microwave photons propagating in a
superconducting waveguide consisting of coupled transmission line resonators,
each of which is connected to a tunable charge qubit. While these coupled line
resonators form an artificial photonic crystal with an engineered photonic band
structure, the charge qubits collectively behave as spin waves in the low
excitation limit, which modify the band-gap structure to slow and stop the
microwave propagation. The conceptual exploration here suggests an
electromagnetically controlled quantum device based on the on-chip circuit QED
for the coherent manipulation of photons, such as the dynamic creation of
laser-like output from the waveguide by pumping the artificial atoms for
population inversion.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure
