Burrowing behaviour of signal crayfish, Pacifastacus leniusculus (Dana), in the River Great Ouse, England
Observations were made on crayfish burrows in five locations on the Great Ouse River. The burrow densities and the relative abundance of crayfish were observed. Also, laboratory experiments were carried out in order to study the characteristics and mechanisms of burrowing
Secrecy Wireless Information and Power Transfer in OFDMA Systems
In this paper, we consider simultaneous wireless information and power
transfer (SWIPT) in orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA)
systems with the coexistence of information receivers (IRs) and energy
receivers (ERs). The IRs are served with best-effort secrecy data and the ERs
harvest energy with minimum required harvested power. To enhance physical-layer
security and yet satisfy energy harvesting requirements, we introduce a new
frequency-domain artificial noise based approach. We study the optimal resource
allocation for the weighted sum secrecy rate maximization via transmit power
and subcarrier allocation. The considered problem is non-convex, while we
propose an efficient algorithm for solving it based on Lagrange duality method.
Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm as
compared against other heuristic schemes.Comment: To appear in Globecom 201
