The paradigm shift to distributed networks offers great potential to address the 6G requirements, through macro diversity. As 6G scenarios and use cases continue to emerge, new challenges are likely to arise that may affect the widespread imp-lementation of D-MIMO. To address those, different deployment options have been proposed for roll-out considerations. They are composed of several sub-components that can be categorized as (i) wireless or wired fronthaul/backhaul, (ii) analog or digital signals, (iii) distributed or centralized processing, and (iv) coherent or non-coherent transmission. To facilitate standardization efforts, we provide 3GPP-aligned terminology for network nodes, multi-point transmission and reception schemes. In order to enable large-scale implementation of D-MIMO systems, it is important to determine the needed amount of distribution, develop practical solutions for high-frequency bands, and ways to convey data that meet the transport requirements. On this regard, we discuss key enablers and present simulation results for D-MIMO systems towards 6G. In particular, we present solutions for D-MIMO networks in dynamic scenarios related to channel estimation and layer-l mobility considering coherent and non-coherent joint transmission, and analog fronthaul implementation using analog-radio-over-fiber that are promising for high (upper mm-Wave and (sub-)THz) carrier frequencies, as well as integrated access and backhaul, network-controlled repeaters, and reconfigurable intelligent surfaces that are possible enablers for cost-efficient network densification at both low (cm-Wave, lower mm-Wave) and high carrier frequencies.","PeriodicalId":65870,"journal":{"name":"公共管理高层论坛","volume":"60 1","pages":"156-161"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91013679","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the channel propagation is challenging in those bands because of severe path loss attenuation. Hardware impairments are also strong especially phase noise (PN). Besides, silicon based components, which prevail in mobile systems thanks to their low production costs, reach their limits in such high frequencies. There is thus a need for specific solutions for both system designs and signal processing techniques. The contributions of the proposed work are multiple: (i) based on a CMOS D-Band transceiver, we measure and derive the stochastic properties of the transceiver PN and, (ii) we investigate and evaluate the performance of signal processing PN estimation and compensation techniques, with the measured PN for OFDM and DFT-s-OFDM waveforms. We demonstrate that the use of the proposed algorithm based on the statistic properties of the correlated nature of the PN, leads to a significant performance gain in DFT-s-OFDM systems.

When deploying their services, service providers need to specify a proper amount of resources to K8s, so that the desired Quality of Service (QoS) to their users can be maintained. To cope with the varying traffic demand coming from users, they can rely on the K8s Horizontal Pod Autoscaling (HPA) mechanism. To ensure that enough resources are available when needed, the standard HPA mechanism relies on resource overprovisioning. In this way, the required QoS is achieved most of (or all) the time but at the expense of additional resources that are allocated (and charged for), while they may stay idle for significant periods of time. A way to reduce overprovisioning is provided by the soft resource isolation of K8s, which allows services to compensate for a temporary lack of resources with shared resources, i.e., idle resources of the machines where services are running. However, during traffic spikes, these idle resources may not be enough to serve the whole demand, degrading the QoS. The HPA, which is not aware of how much demand could not be served, is not always able to correctly estimate the required additional resources, further degrading the QoS. To overcome this, service providers need to leverage overprovisioning, limiting the use of shared resources. In this paper, we propose a novel mechanism for autoscaling resources in K8s that relies on service-related data to avoid the additional degradation introduced by the HPA. The proposed strategy also offers a way to tune overprovisioning and shared resources. Simulation results show that our approach can reduce idle resources by up to 60% compared with the HPA mechanism.","PeriodicalId":65870,"journal":{"name":"公共管理高层论坛","volume":"17 1","pages":"454-459"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81720193","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed scheme comprises both multicast and unicast transmissions wherein a suitable combination of messages is chosen exploiting a tree diagram structure thus guaranteeing symmetric transmission of data for any given set of network parameters. The same structure also removes the successive interference cancellation requirement at the receivers, thus enabling a simple linear design for optimized beamformers. Moreover, even though the proposed scheme in general requires a larger subpacketization than the original single antenna CC scheme, for the particular case of $frac{t+L}{t+1}in mathbb{N}$, it works with exactly the same subpacketization value.

Soil moisture detection using WiFi sensing is gaining interest, but the key underlying challenge is to realise contact-free sensing technology that can characterise the impact of water spreading into the soil on the Channel State Information (CSI). Therefore, we develop a framework for sensing soil water levels using CSI- based sensing. We investigate the WiFi CSI signatures pertinent to the soil water infiltration, enabling applications including soil health monitoring. In our experimental study, we use the 5GHz WiFi spectrum to implement our novel frequency-selective CSI sensing framework for soil moisture profiling using commodity Raspberry Pi devices. The experimental results verified that specific WiFi Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) subcarriers are more sensitive to the changes in soil moisture, leading to a frequency-sensitive behaviour on CSI. Our framework exploits the changes in the pressure levels due to the water movement or varying humidity levels in the soil channel between the WiFi transmitter and receiver that leave impressions on the underlying CSI. Furthermore, this paper demonstrates a novel approach by inspecting the CSI amplitude pattern of water entering the soil at a finer level. Lastly, in contrast to the existing works, our low-cost and contact-free method for detecting soil moisture detection has been empirically shown to efficiently utilise the newly-identified frequency-selective CSI signatures for the water infiltration and humidity levels in soil channel for accurate soil moisture prediction.","PeriodicalId":65870,"journal":{"name":"公共管理高层论坛","volume":"61 1","pages":"641-646"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84937856","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
