First, we present a fourth-order phase model (FoPM) that is more suitable for the highly squinted SAR system through a theoretical analysis. Second, based on the FoPM, we derive an improved fourth-order SPECAN algorithm in detail. In this derivation, the nonzero Doppler centroid, the ASLD, and the RCM caused by the high squint angle are corrected.

There are two main methods for hyperspectral target detection: supervised and unsupervised methods. Supervision method refers to the use of spectral differences between the target to be tested and the surrounding background to identify the target when the target spectrum is known. In ideal situations, supervised object detection algorithms perform better than unsupervised algorithms. However, the current supervised object detection algorithms mainly have two problems: firstly, the impact of uncertainty in the ground object spectrum, and secondly, the universality of the algorithm is poor. A hyperspectral target detection framework based on 3D–2D CNN and transfer learning was proposed to solve the problems of traditional supervised methods. This method first extracts multi-scale spectral information and then preprocesses hyperspectral images using multiple spectral similarity measures. This method not only extracts spectral features in advance, but also eliminates the influence of complex environments to a certain extent. The preprocessed feature maps are used as input for 3D–2D CNN to deeply learn the features of the target, and then, the softmax method is used to output and obtain the detection results. The framework draws on the ideas of integrated learning and transfer learning, solves the spectral uncertainty problem with the combined similarity measure and depth feature extraction network, and solves the problem of poor robustness of traditional algorithms by model migration and parameter sharing. The area under the ROC curve of the proposed method has been increased to over 0.99 in experiments on both publicly available remote sensing hyperspectral images and measured land-based hyperspectral images. The availability and stability of the proposed method have been demonstrated through experiments. A feasible approach has been provided for the development and application of specific target detection technology in hyperspectral images under different backgrounds in the future.</p>","PeriodicalId":11816,"journal":{"name":"EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-03-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140124434","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper introduces a novel trajectory planning scheme, namely the double-map assisted UAV approach, which leverages deep reinforcement learning to address these challenges. The mission execution time, wireless connectivity, and obstacle avoidance are comprehensively modeled and analyzed in this approach, leading to the derivation of a novel joint optimization function. By utilizing an advanced technique known as dueling double deep Q network (D3QN), the objective function is optimized, while employing a mechanism of prioritized experience replay strengthens the training of effective samples. Furthermore, the connectivity and obstacle information collected by the UAV during flight are utilized to generate a map of radio and environmental data for simulating the flying process, thereby significantly reducing operational costs.

These interferences have a straightforward structure, leading to the creation of complex circles when attempting to identify their contribution. To address the interference and improve the situation, we calculate the maximum likelihood estimator for the relevant parameters (time delay and Doppler shift) while considering the presence of these latent variables.

Existing approaches focus on inferring static graph, typically assuming that all nodes are available. However, these approaches ignore the situation where only a subset of nodes are available from spatiotemporal measurements, and the remaining nodes are never observed due to application-specific constraints, resulting in time-varying graph estimation accuracy declines dramatically. To handle this problem, we propose a framework that consider the presence of hidden nodes to identify time-varying graph. Specifically, we assume that the graph signals are smooth and stationary on the graphs and only a small number of edges are allowed to change between two consecutive graphs. With these assumptions, we present a challenging time-varying graph inference problem, which models the influence of hidden nodes in terms of estimating the graph-shift operator matrices that have a form of graph Laplacian.

With the increasing human exploration of space and growing demands for internet applications, space-air-ground integrated networks have gradually emerged as the direction for communication network development. These networks face various challenges such as extensive coverage, diverse communication node types, low-quality communication links, and simultaneous operation of multiple network protocols. However, the rapid development and widespread application of artificial intelligence and machine learning technologies in recent years have offered new perspectives and solutions for the communication architecture and routing algorithm research within space-air-ground integrated networks. In these networks, not all nodes can typically communicate directly with satellites; instead, a specific set of specialized communication nodes facilitates data communication between aerial and satellite networks due to their superior communication capabilities. Consequently, in contrast to traditional communication architectures, space-air-ground integrated networks, particularly in the terrestrial layer, often need to address challenges related to the diversity of communication node types and low-quality communication links. A well-designed routing approach becomes crucial in addressing these issues. Therefore, this paper proposes an AODV routing network protocol based on an improved ant colony algorithm (AC-AODV), specifically designed for the terrestrial layer within the space-air-ground integrated networks. By integrating information such as the type, energy, and location of communication nodes, this protocol aims to facilitate network communication. The objective is to guide information flow through nodes that are more suitable for communication, either by relaying communication or by connecting with satellites through specialized nodes. This approach alleviates the burden on ordinary nodes within the terrestrial communication network, thereby enhancing the overall network performance. In this protocol, specialized nodes hold a higher forwarding priority than regular nodes. When a source node needs to transmit data, it enters the route discovery phase, utilizing its own type, location, and energy information as heuristic data to calculate forwarding probabilities. Subsequently, it broadcasts route request (RREQ) messages to find the path. Upon receiving the RREQ message, the destination node sends an RREP message for updating information elements and selects the optimal path based on these information elements. Compared to AODV, AC-AODV shows significant improvements in performance metrics such as transmission latency, throughput, energy conversion rate, and packet loss rate.</p>","PeriodicalId":11816,"journal":{"name":"EURASIP Journal on Advances in Signal Processing","volume":"70 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.9,"publicationDate":"2024-03-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140116751","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
