These attacks can disrupt network topologies and compromise data transmission. Early detection of routing attacks is crucial, particularly in resource-constrained RPL networks. This study employed a simulated dataset encompassing Hello Flood, Version Number, and Worst Parent attacks to develop a robust detection model for resource-based routing attacks in IoT networks. In this research, a novel cross-layer feature analysis was conducted, identifying 12 key features crucial for distinguishing between normal and malicious nodes within the network out of the 29 features examined. Various machine learning algorithms, including random forest, CatBoost, and extreme gradient boosting, were evaluated for precise classification. The optimized CatBoost model, a gradient-boosting decision tree (DT) algorithm, demonstrated outstanding performance with a 99% of detection rate, 0.8% of false positive rate, 98% of sensitivity, and 98% of positive predictive values on an independent test dataset. Furthermore, an advanced intrusion prevention algorithm leveraging cross-layer feature-induced intrusion detection was introduced to effectively combat prevalent routing attacks. This study significantly contributes to enhancing cybersecurity in IoT networks, particularly in smart cities, by offering robust intrusion detection and prevention mechanisms.","PeriodicalId":54864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communications and Networks","volume":"27 5","pages":"345-358"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11173243","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145533052","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Semi-grant-free (SGF) transmission has garnered significant research attention in recent years because it enables grant-free (GF) users to share resource blocks with grant-based (GB) users, thereby enhancing spectrum efficiency in large-scale device access scenarios. This study focuses on distributed GF transmission and integrates it with the sparse code multiple access (SCMA) scheme to address the low-latency needs of large-scale short-packet transmission devices while simultaneously meeting the transmission rate requirements of GB users. The proposed SGF-SCMA scheme, based on a user hierarchical strategy, significantly enhances spectral efficiency and reduces delay overhead for GF users compared to existing schemes. The successful transmission probability of SGF-SCMA scheme is derived, and the proposed control transmission factor is optimized to improve the throughput in massive user access scenarios. The solution of the derived successful transmission probability was showed through simulation, and the crosstalk problem of the SCMA system was analyzed. Considering the delay of GF users, the throughput can be improved by 20% to 43% compared with the existing SGF scheme.","PeriodicalId":54864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communications and Networks","volume":"27 6","pages":"464-473"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11173242","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145904292","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a strategy for enhancing ISAC systems by implementing a semantic-level slicing approach to address key issues as resource utilization, real-time capability, and computational complexity in ISAC systems. A bidirectional mapping mechanism is introduced, combined with edge intelligence, that enhances system predictability, autonomy, and reduces task completion costs by slicing and allocating semantic resources in cloud-edge environments. Additionally, the proposed communication-sensing complementary strategy leverages semantic fusion to enable efficient and adaptable execution of communication and sensing tasks at the resource level, resulting in enhanced task flexibility. The simulation results show that the proposed bidirectional mapping and communication-sensing complementary method significantly improves the signal-to-interference-noise ratio of the traditional system by about 55% in medium and low dynamic environments.","PeriodicalId":54864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communications and Networks","volume":"27 6","pages":"534-546"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11173241","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145904263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, data detection in uplink mMIMO is not a trivial task as the computational complexity increases with the number of antennas. The equalization matrix is diagonally dominant, and hence, most of the existing linear detectors use the diagonal matrix. Unfortunately, detection based on a diagonal matrix may require a high number of iterations to converge, which increases the computational complexity. This is highly challenging because of the large number of antennas on both the transmitting and receiving sides. In this paper, we propose a refinement of six linear mMIMO detectors based on a band matrix formulation to accelerate the convergence rate, and hence reduce the complexity. The proposed linear detectors include the Newton iterations method, the Neumann series method, the accelerated over-relaxation method, the successive over-relaxation method, the Gauss-Seidel (GS) method, and the Jacobi method. The computation of the band matrix inverse is also presented in this paper and employed in the proposed detectors. In addition, efficient initialization based on the structure of the band matrix is proposed, which both improves the convergence rate and yields a substantial performance gain. Simulations show that the proposed detectors achieve minimum mean-squared error performance with significant complexity reduction even when the number of users approaches the number of base station antennas. It is also shown that the refined detector based on the GS and band matrix achieves the highest performance gain with the lowest computational complexity.","PeriodicalId":54864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communications and Networks","volume":"27 5","pages":"298-309"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11173246","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145533054","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study introduces a visionary server, an authoritative ground-based management system generating pre-negotiated paths instead of relying on real-time computations by individual nodes. The server distributes routing information through a structured extension block for bundle protocol version 7, enabling contact establishment without prior knowledge of adjacent node characteristics. Qualitative simulations using realistic scenarios validate this concept's effectiveness. The key innovation lies in the dual-mode architecture combining centralized coordination with distributed failure detection, which: (i) reduces computational requirements by processing on ground, (ii) facilitates network trouble shoots through available routing information, and (iii) considers data rate, frequency, and modulation type while orchestrating routing decisions across heterogeneous space assets without requiring physical layer standardization.","PeriodicalId":54864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communications and Networks","volume":"27 5","pages":"327-344"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11142620","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145533053","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the global wide-area quantum networks begin to take shape, drone-based quantum entanglement networks have attracted widespread attention. Compared to quantum links based on optical fibers or satellites, drone-based quantum entanglement networks can effectively address the need for responsive and on-demand quantum network coverage across diverse locations and operational times. To realize network construction, entanglement routing protocols pose a significant challenge. On the one hand, the fidelity of the entangled system degrades hop-byhop. On the other hand, the dynamics and limited energy of drone nodes are equally not negligible. However, existing works have not adequately addressed these issues. In this paper, we present a novel fidelity-guaranteed entanglement routing protocol for drone-based quantum networks (FGER_D). The FGER_D considers the node energy and quantum link vulnerability comprehensively, selects end-to-end fidelity as the routing metric, and employs multiple attempts' entanglement purification scheme to provide fidelity-guaranteed entanglement connections in noisy environments. Numerical simulations demonstrate that compared to existing algorithms, FGER_D improves network throughput by approximately 24% under default settings, while also ensuring network fidelity and extending network lifetime. Our work is expected to provide a theoretical basis for the deployment of drone-based entanglement distribution networks.","PeriodicalId":54864,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Communications and Networks","volume":"27 4","pages":"241-251"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-08-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/stamp/stamp.jsp?tp=&arnumber=11142614","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144904870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"计算机科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
