Sample Approximation-Based Deflation Approaches for Chance SINR Constrained Joint Power and Admission Control
Consider the joint power and admission control (JPAC) problem for a
multi-user single-input single-output (SISO) interference channel. Most
existing works on JPAC assume the perfect instantaneous channel state
information (CSI). In this paper, we consider the JPAC problem with the
imperfect CSI, that is, we assume that only the channel distribution
information (CDI) is available. We formulate the JPAC problem into a chance
(probabilistic) constrained program, where each link's SINR outage probability
is enforced to be less than or equal to a specified tolerance. To circumvent
the computational difficulty of the chance SINR constraints, we propose to use
the sample (scenario) approximation scheme to convert them into finitely many
simple linear constraints. Furthermore, we reformulate the sample approximation
of the chance SINR constrained JPAC problem as a composite group sparse
minimization problem and then approximate it by a second-order cone program
(SOCP). The solution of the SOCP approximation can be used to check the
simultaneous supportability of all links in the network and to guide an
iterative link removal procedure (the deflation approach). We exploit the
special structure of the SOCP approximation and custom-design an efficient
algorithm for solving it. Finally, we illustrate the effectiveness and
efficiency of the proposed sample approximation-based deflation approaches by
simulations.Comment: The paper has been accepted for publication in IEEE Transactions on

Outage Constrained Robust Secure Transmission for MISO Wiretap Channels
In this paper we consider the robust secure beamformer design for MISO
wiretap channels. Assume that the eavesdroppers' channels are only partially
available at the transmitter, we seek to maximize the secrecy rate under the
transmit power and secrecy rate outage probability constraint. The outage
probability constraint requires that the secrecy rate exceeds certain threshold
with high probability. Therefore including such constraint in the design
naturally ensures the desired robustness. Unfortunately, the presence of the
probabilistic constraints makes the problem non-convex and hence difficult to
solve. In this paper, we investigate the outage probability constrained secrecy
rate maximization problem using a novel two-step approach. Under a wide range
of uncertainty models, our developed algorithms can obtain high-quality
solutions, sometimes even exact global solutions, for the robust secure
beamformer design problem. Simulation results are presented to verify the
effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithms
Joint Source-Relay Design for Full-Duplex MIMO AF Relay Systems
The performance of full-duplex (FD) relay systems can be greatly impacted by the self-interference (SI) at relays. By exploiting multiple antennas, the spectral efficiency of FD relay systems can be enhanced through spatial SI mitigation. This paper studies joint source transmit beamforming and relay processing to achieve rate maximization for FD multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) amplify-and-forward (AF) relay systems with consideration of relay processing delay. The problem is difficult to solve mainly due to the SI constraint induced by the relay processing delay. In this paper, we first present a sufficient condition under which the relay amplification matrix has rank-one structure. Then, for the case of rank-one amplification matrix, the rate maximization problem is equivalently simplified into an unconstrained problem that can be locally solved using the gradient ascent method. Next, we propose a penalty-based algorithmic framework, named P-BSUM, for a class of constrained optimization problems that have difficult equality constraints in addition to some convex constraints. By rewriting the rate maximization problem with a set of auxiliary variables, we apply the P-BSUM algorithm to the rate maximization problem in the general case. Finally, numerical results validate the efficiency of the proposed algorithms and show that the joint source-relay design approach under the rankone assumption could be strictly suboptimal as compared to the P-BSUM-based joint source-relay design approach
Study of Valve Motion in Reciprocating Refrigerator Compressors based on the 3-D Fluid–structure Interaction Model
Ă‚ Abstract: In this paper, a 3-D fluid-structure interaction model was established to investigate the working process of the small reciprocating refrigeration compressors. According to the numerical calculation, the working process of the small reciprocating refrigeration compressor, the motion of valve and the impact velocity and the contact stress of discharge valve and suction valve were given. Experiments on a small reciprocating refrigeration compressor for testing the p-v graph were carried out .Experimental results agree well with the numeric model. The result provides a guidance to research and design the small reciprocating refrigeration compressors

Most existing works on JPAC assume the perfect instantaneous channel state information (CSI). In this paper, we consider the JPAC problem with the imperfect CSI, i.e., we assume that only the channel distribution information (CDI) is available. We formulate the JPAC problem into a chance (probabilistic)-constrained program, where each link's SINR outage probability is enforced to be less than or equal to a specified tolerance.
