Systematic approach to nonlinear filtering associated with aggregation operators. Part 2. Frechet MIMO-filters

Median filtering has been widely used in scalar-valued image processing as an edge preserving operation. The basic idea is that the pixel value is replaced by the median of the pixels contained in a window around it. In this work, this idea is extended onto vector-valued images. It is based on the fact that the median is also the value that minimizes the sum of distances between all grey-level pixels in the window. The Frechet median of a discrete set of vector-valued pixels in a metric space with a metric is the point minimizing the sum of metric distances to the all sample pixels. In this paper, we extend the notion of the Frechet median to the general Frechet median, which minimizes the Frechet cost function (FCF) in the form of aggregation function of metric distances, instead of the ordinary sum. Moreover, we propose use an aggregation distance instead of classical metric distance. We use generalized Frechet median for constructing new nonlinear Frechet MIMO-filters for multispectral image processing. (C) 2017 The Authors.

Systematic approach to nonlinear filtering associated with aggregation operators. Part 1. SISO-filters

There are various methods to help restore an image from noisy distortions. Each technique has its advantages and disadvantages. Selecting the appropriate method plays a major role in getting the desired image. Noise removal or noise reduction can be done on an image by linear or nonlinear filtering. The more popular linear technique is based on average (on mean) linear operators. Denoising via linear filters normally does not perform satisfactorily since both noise and edges contain high frequencies. Therefore, any practical denoising model has to be nonlinear. In this work, we introduce and analyze a new class of nonlinear SISO-filters that have their roots in aggregation operator theory. We show that a large body of non-linear filters proposed to date constitute a proper subset of aggregation filters. (C) 2017 The Authors.

Intelligent OFDM telecommunication system. Part 1. Model of complex and quaternion systems

In this paper, we aim to investigate the superiority and practicability of many-parameter transforms (MPTs) from the physical layer security (PHY-LS) perspective. We propose novel Intelligent OFDM-telecommunication systems based on complex and quaternion MPTs. The new systems use inverse MPT (IMPT) for modulation at the transmitter and MPT for demodulation at the receiver. The purpose of employing the MPT is to improve: 1) the PHY-LS of wireless transmissions against to the wide-band anti-jamming and anti-eavesdropping communication; 2) the bit error rate (BER) performance with respect to the conventional OFDM-TCS; 3) the peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Each MPT depends on finite set of independent parameters (angles). When parameters are changed, many-parametric transform is also changed taking form of a set known (and unknown) orthogonal (or unitary) transforms. For this reason, the concrete values of parameters are specific "key" for entry into OFDM-TCS. Vector of parameters belong to multi-dimension torus space. Scanning of this space for find out the "key" (the concrete values of parameters) is hard problem. MPT has the form of the product of the Jacobi rotation matrixes and it describes a fast algorithm for MPT. The main advantage of using MPT in OFDM TCS is that it is a very flexible anti-eavesdropping and anti-jamming Intelligent OFDM TCS. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first work that utilizes the MPT theory to facilitate the PHY-LS through parameterization of unitary transforms. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Intelligent OFDM telecommunication system. Part 2. Examples of complex and quaternion many-parameter transforms

In this paper, we propose unified mathematical forms of many-parametric complex and quaternion Fourier transforms for novel Intelligent OFDM-telecommunication systems (OFDM-TCS). Each many-parametric transform (MPT) depends on many free angle parameters. When parameters are changed in some way, the type and form of transform are changed as well. For example, MPT may be the Fourier transform for one set of parameters, wavelet transform for other parameters and other transforms for other values of parameters. The new Intelligent-OFDM-TCS uses inverse MPT for modulation at the transmitter and direct MPT for demodulation at the receiver. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd. All rights reserved

Intelligent OFDM telecommunication system. Part 3. Anti-eavesdropping and anti-jamming properties of system, based on many-parameter wavelet and Golay transforms

In this paper, we aim to investigate the superiority and practicability of many-parameter Fourier transforms (MPFT) from the physical layer security (PHY-LS) perspective. We propose novel Intelligent OFDM-telecommunication system (Intelligent-OFDM-TCS), based on MPFT. New system uses inverse MPFT for modulation at the transmitter and direct MPFT for demodulation at the receiver. The purpose of employing the MPFTs is to improve the PHY-LS of wireless transmissions against to the wide-band anti-jamming communication. Each MPFT depends on finite set of independent parameters (angles), which could be changed independently one from another. When parameters are changed, multi-parametric transform is also changed taking form of a set known (and unknown) orthogonal (or unitary) transforms. We implement the following performances as bit error rate (BER), symbol error rate (SER), the Shannon-Wyner secrecy capacity (SWSC) for novel Intelligent-MPWT-OFDM-TCS. Previous research has shown that the conventional OFDM TCS based on discrete Fourier transform (DFT) has unsatisfactory characteristics in BER, SWSC and in anti-eavesdropping communications. We study Intelligent-MPWT-OFDM-TCS to find out optimal values of angle parameters of MPFT optimized BER, SWSC, anti-eavesdropping effects. Simulation results show that the proposed Intelligent OFDM-TCS have better performances than the conventional OFDM system based on DFT against eavesdropping. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Intelligent OFDM telecommunication system. Part 4. Anti-eavesdropping and anti-jamming properties of the system, based on many-parameter and fractional Fourier transforms

In this paper, we aim to investigate the superiority and practicability of many-parameter wavelet and Golay transforms (MPWT and MPGT) from the physical layer security (PHY-LS) perspective. We propose novel Intelligent OFDM-telecommunication system (Intelligent-OFDM-TCS), based on many-parameter transforms (MPTs). New system uses inverse MPT for modulation at the transmitter and direct MPT for demodulation at the receiver. The purpose of employing the MPTs is to improve the PHY-LS of wireless transmissions against to the wide-band anti-jamming communication. Each MPT depends on finite set of independent Jacobi parameters (angles), which could be changed independently one of another. When parameters are changed, multi-parametric transform is changed too taking form of a set known (and unknown) orthogonal (or unitary) wavelet transforms. We implement the following performances as bit error rate (BER), symbol error rate (SER), peak to average power ratio (PAPR), the Shannon-Wyner secrecy capacity (SWSC) for novel Intelligent-MPWT-OFDM-TCS. Previous research has shown that the conventional OFDM TCS based on discrete Fourier transform (DFT) has unsatisfactory characteristics in BER, PARP, SWSC and in anti-eavesdropping communications. We study Intelligent-MPT-OFDM-TCS to find out optimal values of angle parameters of MPT optimized BER, PAPR, SWSC, anti-eavesdropping effects. Simulation results show that the proposed Intelligent OFDM-TCS have better performances than the conventional OFDM system based on DFT against eavesdropping. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
