Elevated LiDAR (ELiD) has the potential to hasten the deployment of Autonomous Vehicles (AV), as ELiD can reduce energy expenditures associated with AVs, and can also be utilized for other intelligent Transportation Systems applications such as urban 3D mapping. In this paper, we address the need for a planning framework in order for ITS operators to have an effective tool for determining what resources are required to achieve a desired level of coverage of urban roadways. To this end, we develop a mixed-integer nonlinear constrained optimization problem, with the aim of maximizing effective area coverage of a roadway, while satisfying energy and throughput capacity constraints. Due to the non-linearity of the problem, we utilize Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) to solve the problem. After demonstrating its effectiveness in finding a solution for a realistic scenario, we perform a sensitivity analysis to test the models general ability.

We consider the relaying application of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), in which UAVs are placed between two transceivers (TRs) to increase the throughput of the system. Instead of studying the placement of UAVs as pursued in existing literature, we
focus on investigating the placement of a jammer or a major source of interference on the ground to effectively degrade the performance of the system, which is measured by the maximum achievable data rate of transmission between the TRs. We demonstrate that the optimal placement of the jammer is in general a non-convex optimization problem, for which obtaining the solution directly is intractable. Afterward, using the inherent characteristics of the signal-to-interference ratio (SIR) expressions, we propose a tractable approach to find the optimal position of the jammer. Based on the proposed approach, we investigate the optimal positioning of the jammer in both dual-hop and multi-hop UAV relaying settings. Numerical simulations are provided to evaluate the performance of our proposed method.
Wireless cellular networks have many parameters that are normally tuned upon deployment and re-tuned as the network changes. Many operational parameters affect reference signal received power (RSRP), reference signal received quality (RSRQ), signal-t
o-interference-plus-noise-ratio (SINR), and, ultimately, throughput. In this paper, we develop and compare two approaches for maximizing coverage and minimizing interference by jointly optimizing the transmit power and downtilt (elevation tilt) settings across sectors. To evaluate different parameter configurations offline, we construct a realistic simulation model that captures geographic correlations. Using this model, we evaluate two optimization methods: deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG), a reinforcement learning (RL) algorithm, and multi-objective Bayesian optimization (BO). Our simulations show that both approaches significantly outperform random search and converge to comparable Pareto frontiers, but that BO converges with two orders of magnitude fewer evaluations than DDPG. Our results suggest that data-driven techniques can effectively self-optimize coverage and capacity in cellular networks.
Ambient backscatter communications is an emerging paradigm and a key enabler for pervasive connectivity of low-powered wireless devices. It is primarily beneficial in the Internet of things (IoT) and the situations where computing and connectivity ca
pabilities expand to sensors and miniature devices that exchange data on a low power budget. The premise of the ambient backscatter communication is to build a network of devices capable of operating in a battery-free manner by means of smart networking, radio frequency (RF) energy harvesting and power management at the granularity of individual bits and instructions. Due to this innovation in communication methods, it is essential to investigate the performance of these devices under practical constraints. To do so, this article formulates a model for wireless-powered ambient backscatter devices and derives a closed-form expression of outage probability under Rayleigh fading. Based on this expression, the article provides the power-splitting factor that balances the tradeoff between energy harvesting and achievable data rate. Our results also shed light on the complex interplay of a power-splitting factor, amount of harvested energy, and the achievable data rates.
The connected vehicle paradigm empowers vehicles with the capability to communicate with neighboring vehicles and infrastructure, shifting the role of vehicles from a transportation tool to an intelligent service platform. Meanwhile, the transportati
on electrification pushes forward the electric vehicle (EV) commercialization to reduce the greenhouse gas emission by petroleum combustion. The unstoppable trends of connected vehicle and EVs transform the traditional vehicular system to an electric vehicular network (EVN), a clean, mobile, and safe system. However, due to the mobility and heterogeneity of the EVN, improper management of the network could result in charging overload and data congestion. Thus, energy and information management of the EVN should be carefully studied. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive survey on the deployment and management of EVN considering all three aspects of energy flow, data communication, and computation. We first introduce the management framework of EVN. Then, research works on the EV aggregator (AG) deployment are reviewed to provide energy and information infrastructure for the EVN. Based on the deployed AGs, we present the research work review on EV scheduling that includes both charging and vehicle-to-grid (V2G) scheduling. Moreover, related works on information communication and computing are surveyed under each scenario. Finally, we discuss open research issues in the EVN.
This paper presents a wireless neural recording system featuring energy-efficient data compression and encryption. An ultra-high efficiency is achieved by leveraging compressed sensing (CS) for simultaneous data compression and encryption. CS enables
sub-Nyquist sampling of neural signals by taking advantage of its intrinsic sparsity. It simultaneously encrypts the data with the sampling matrix being the cryptographic key. To share the key over an insecure wireless channel, we implement an elliptic-curve cryptography (ECC) based key exchanging protocol. The CS operation is executed in a custom-designed IC fabricated in 180nm CMOS technology. Mixed-signal circuits are designed to optimize the power efficiency of the matrix-vector multiplication (MVM) of the CS operation. The ECC algorithm is implemented in a low-power Cortex-M0 microcontroller (MCU). To be protected from timing and power analysis attacks, the implementation avoids possible data-dependent branches and also employs a randomized ECC initialization. At a compression ratio of 8x, the average correlated coefficient between the reconstructed signals and the uncompressed signals is 0.973, while the ciphertext-only attacks (CoA) achieve no better than 0.054 over 200,000 attacks. The prototype achieves a 35x power saving compared with conventional implementation in low-power MCUs. This work demonstrates a promising solution for future chronic neural recording systems with requirements in high energy efficiency and security.
