Bottomonium Spectrum with Screened Potential

As a sister work of Ref.[1], we incorporate the color-screening effect due to light quark pair creation into the heavy quark-antiquark potential, and investigate the effects of screened potential on the spectrum of bottomonium. We calculate the masses, electromagnetic decays, and E1 transitions of bottomonium states. We find that the fine splittings between $\chi_{bJ}$ (J=0,1,2) states are in good agreement with experimental data, and the E1 transition rates of $\Upsilon(2S)\to\gamma\chi_{bJ}(1P)$ and $\Upsilon(3S)\to\gamma\chi_{bJ}(2P)$ (J=0,1,2) all agree with data within experimental errors. In particular, the mass of $\Upsilon(6S)$ is lowered down to match that of the $\Upsilon(11020)$, which is smaller than the predictions of the linear potential models by more than 100 MeV. Comparison between charmonium and bottomonium in some related problems is also discussed.Comment: 9 pages, Commun. Theor. Phys. (in press

Large planar maneuvers for articulated flexible manipulators

An articulated flexible manipulator carried on a translational cart is maneuvered by an active controller to perform certain position control tasks. The nonlinear dynamics of the articulated flexible manipulator are derived and a transformation matrix is formulated to localize the nonlinearities within the inertia matrix. Then a feedback linearization scheme is introduced to linearize the dynamic equations for controller design. Through a pole placement technique, a robust controller design is obtained by properly assigning a set of closed-loop desired eigenvalues to meet performance requirements. Numerical simulations for the articulated flexible manipulators are given to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed position control algorithms

Photoproduction of ηc\eta_c in NRQCD

We present a calculation for the photoproduction of $\eta_c$ under the framework of NRQCD factorization formalism. We find a quite unique feature that the color-singlet contribution to this process vanishes at not only the leading order but also the next to leading order perturbative QCD calculations and that the dominant contribution comes from the color-octet ${}^1S_0^{(8)}$ subprocess. The nonperturbative color-octet matrix element of ${}^1S_0^{(8)}$ of $\eta_c$ is related to that of ${}^3S_1^{(8)}$ of $J/\psi$ by the heavy quark spin symmetry, and the latter can be determined from the direct production of $J/\psi$ at large transverse momentum at the Fermilib Tevatron. We then conclude that the measurement of this process may clarify the existing conflict between the color-octet prediction and the experimental result on the $J/\psi$ photoprodution.Comment: 11 pages, revtex, 4 ps figure

Adaptive Multi-objective Optimization for Energy Efficient Interference Coordination in Multi-Cell Networks

In this paper, we investigate the distributed power allocation for multi-cell OFDMA networks taking both energy efficiency and inter-cell interference (ICI) mitigation into account. A performance metric termed as throughput contribution is exploited to measure how ICI is effectively coordinated. To achieve a distributed power allocation scheme for each base station (BS), the throughput contribution of each BS to the network is first given based on a pricing mechanism. Different from existing works, a biobjective problem is formulated based on multi-objective optimization theory, which aims at maximizing the throughput contribution of the BS to the network and minimizing its total power consumption at the same time. Using the method of Pascoletti and Serafini scalarization, the relationship between the varying parameters and minimal solutions is revealed. Furthermore, to exploit the relationship an algorithm is proposed based on which all the solutions on the boundary of the efficient set can be achieved by adaptively adjusting the involved parameters. With the obtained solution set, the decision maker has more choices on power allocation schemes in terms of both energy consumption and throughput. Finally, the performance of the algorithm is assessed by the simulation results.Comment: 29 page

How to Understand LMMSE Transceiver Design for MIMO Systems From Quadratic Matrix Programming

In this paper, a unified linear minimum mean-square-error (LMMSE) transceiver design framework is investigated, which is suitable for a wide range of wireless systems. The unified design is based on an elegant and powerful mathematical programming technology termed as quadratic matrix programming (QMP). Based on QMP it can be observed that for different wireless systems, there are certain common characteristics which can be exploited to design LMMSE transceivers e.g., the quadratic forms. It is also discovered that evolving from a point-to-point MIMO system to various advanced wireless systems such as multi-cell coordinated systems, multi-user MIMO systems, MIMO cognitive radio systems, amplify-and-forward MIMO relaying systems and so on, the quadratic nature is always kept and the LMMSE transceiver designs can always be carried out via iteratively solving a number of QMP problems. A comprehensive framework on how to solve QMP problems is also given. The work presented in this paper is likely to be the first shoot for the transceiver design for the future ever-changing wireless systems.Comment: 31 pages, 4 figures, Accepted by IET Communication
