Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are gaining traction in the realm of network communication, renowned for their adaptability, configuration, and flexibility. The forthcoming network traffic within WSNs can be forecasted through temporal sequence models. In this correspondence, we present a method (TSENet) that can accurately predict the traffic in the cellular network. TSENet is composed of transformers and self-attention network. We have designed a temporal transformer module specifically for extracting temporal features. This module accomplishes this by modeling the traffic flow within each grid of the communication network at both near-term and periodical intervals. Simultaneously, we amalgamate the spatial features of each grid with information from its correlated grids, generating spatial predictions within the spatial transformer. Furthermore, we employ self-attention aggregation to capture dependencies between external factor features and cellular data features. Empirical assessments performed on a genuine cellular traffic dataset offer compelling evidence substantiating the efficacy of TSENet....
Photonic integrated circuits (PICs) based on the silicon-on-insulator platform currently allow high-density integration of optical and electro-optical components on the same chip. This high complexity is also transferred to quantum PICs, where non-linear processes are used for the generation of quantum light on the silicon chip. However, these intrinsically probabilistic light emission processes pose challenges to the ultimately achievable scalability. Here, an interesting solution would be employing on-demand sources of quantum light based on III–V platforms, which are nonetheless very complex to grow directly on silicon. In this paper, we show the integration of InAs quantum dots (QDs) on silicon via the growth on a wafer-bonded GaAs/Si template. To ensure emission in the telecom C-band (∼1550 nm), a metamorphic buffer layer approach is utilized. We show that the deposited single QDs show similar performance to their counterparts directly grown on the well-established GaAs platform. Our results demonstrate that on-demand telecom emitters can be directly and effectively integrated on silicon, without compromises on the performances of either the platforms....
With the development of communication technology, the interference from passive intermodulation to the communication system has become increasingly severe. Locating the source of passive intermodulation and then repairing or replacing the device experiencing passive intermodulation is a reliable method. Therefore, this paper proposes a dual-frequency signal localization method based on the principle of phase ranging to accurately locate the passive intermodulation sources in RF cables. This method switches the test signal frequency to obtain the phase of passive intermodulation signals at different frequencies to localize the passive intermodulation source. This paper analyzes the principle of the passive intermodulation localization method based on dual-frequency signals, establishes a localization system for experiments, and finally, analyzes the experimental error to propose an optimization strategy. Through experimental verification, this method can stabilize the positioning error of a passive intermodulation source in a transmission line less than 0.06 m. Meanwhile, this method has high positioning accuracy and the advantages of slight computational complexity, fast positioning speed, and only a small number of requirements on hardware resources. It can work in communication scenarios like satellite and base stations, providing a new technical solution for localizing passive intermodulation interference sources in 5G and 6G communication systems....
In the sixth generation (6G) era, intelligent machine network (IMN) applications, such as intelligent transportation, require collaborative machines with communication, sensing, and computation (CSC) capabilities. This article proposes an integrated communication, sensing, and computation (ICSAC) framework for 6G to achieve the reciprocity among CSC functions to enhance the reliability and latency of communication, accuracy and timeliness of sensing information acquisition, and privacy and security of computing to realize the IMN applications. Specifically, the sensing and communication functions can merge into unified platforms using the same transmit signals, and the acquired real-time sensing information can be exploited as prior information for intelligent algorithms to enhance the performance of communication networks. This is called the computing-empowered integrated sensing and communications (ISAC) reciprocity. Such reciprocity can further improve the performance of distributed computation with the assistance of networked sensing capability, which is named the sensing-empowered integrated communications and computation (ICAC) reciprocity. The above ISAC and ICAC reciprocities can enhance each other iteratively and finally lead to the ICSAC reciprocity. To achieve these reciprocities, we explore the potential enabling technologies for the ICSAC framework. Finally, we present the evaluation results of crucial enabling technologies to show the feasibility of the ICSAC framework....
The purpose of this article is to investigate how 5G and wireless communication technologies (5G+WCT) might be applied to English language classroom programs in higher education. The paper describes the complimentary roles of 5G and wireless communication technologies in English language teaching, includes student data collecting and standardization as part of the pre-processing, and optimizes the teaching system using an enhanced ant colony algorithm (BACO). Furthermore, the thesis delineates diverse approaches to verify and assess the program’s efficacy. Through the creation of cutting-edge instructional strategies and data collection techniques, this study fosters innovation in English language instruction in higher education. The study offers promise for real-world application and is significant for raising student success, instructional quality, and educational efficacy. However, since 5G technology is still developing, the results of this study could not be applicable in the future or would need to be updated....
