    Abstract: The present invention relates to wireless network technology and presents a permutation group-based channel rendezvous method for a multi-antenna cognitive radio network, allowing a cognitive user equipped with multiple antennas to achieve blind channel rendezvous without the need for clock synchronisation. The present invention defines channel hopping sequences whilst making full use of properties such as channel diversity, the closure nature of permutation groups, and multi-antenna concurrency; based on the permutation groups obtained by rotating a regular polyhedron or a regular polygon around different angles according to different types of axes of symmetry, cyclical splicing is implemented, and different antennas can, according to different rules, independently generate hopping sequences and switching channels; the sequence generating methods are various and flexible; the use of parallel search ensures that deterministic rendezvous with other cognitive users is achieved as quickly as possible and as much as possible in a limited time; and the present method is a highly efficient blind channel rendezvous method having wide applicability and suitable for use in large-scale wireless networks.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a Torus-Quorum based channel rendezvous method for directional antennas. A pair of directional antennas facing any side initially points to the other party mutually in one Torus-Quorum system cycle through a rotation closure attribute of a Torus-Quorum system; and a receiver and a sender switch to a same available channel according to frequency hopping sequences to realize channel rendezvous. In the Torus-Quorum based channel rendezvous method for directional antennas proposed in the present invention, the directional antennas are rotated based on the Torus-Quorum, and elements are ensured to coincide with each other within limited time through the rotation closure attribute of the Torus-Quorum system, i.e., directions are opposite, thereby effectively shortening channel rendezvous time of the directional antennas.

    Abstract: An industrial 5G dynamic multi-priority multi-access method based on deep reinforcement learning includes the following steps: establishing an industrial 5G network model; establishing a dynamic multi-priority multi-channel access neural network model based on deep reinforcement learning; collecting state, action and reward information of multiple time slots of all industrial 5G terminals in the industrial 5G network as training data; training the neural network model by using the collected data until the packet loss ratio and end-to-end latency meet industrial communication requirements; collecting the state information of all the industrial 5G terminals in the industrial 5G network at the current time slot as the input of the neural network model; conducting multi-priority channel allocation; and conducting multi-access by the industrial 5G terminals according to a channel allocation result. The method allocates multiple channels to the industrial 5G terminals of different priorities in the industrial 5G network in real time to ensure large-scale concurrent access.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a robust coverage method for relay nodes in a double-layer structure wireless sensor network. The present invention is a local search based relay node 2-coverage deployment algorithm which, by means of reducing the global deployment problem to a local deployment problem, achieves optimal deployment whilst ensuring robustness. The method specifically comprises two steps: first 1-coverage and second 1-coverage, wherein the first 1-coverage comprises the three steps of construction of relay node candidate deployment locations, grouping of sensor nodes and local deployment of relay nodes, wherein the sensor nodes are grouped by means of a novel grouping method, and the complexity of the algorithm is reduced whilst ensuring optimal deployment. The second 1-coverage adjusts a threshold, selects from every group the sensor nodes covered by just one relay node, and uses a 1-coverage method to re-implement 1-coverage of the sensor nodes, thereby ensuring robustness, reducing the number of relay nodes deployed, and shortening the problem-saving time.
