Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) can improve the security of the physical layer of wireless communication by adjusting the phase of the reflective unit. After analyzing the common theoretical models and potential problems, this study proposes an alternative iterative model based on multiple input multiple output (MIMO), and designs the transmitter, channel and receiver. In addition, passive beamforming precoding matrix of RIS was jointly optimized, and the Lagrangian dual relaxation (LDR) was adopted to decouple the nonconvex problem. After that, the active and passive beamforming matrices were subjected to iterative calculation, and the beamforming was optimized through cyclic programming at the base station (BS). In addition, the high convergence of the proposed algorithm was proved by MATLAB simulation. The results of simulation demonstrate that the joint precoding framework algorithm can maximize the weighted sum rate (WSR), which in turn demonstrates the feasibility of our method. Finally, the authors analyzed the strong applicability of the RIS technology in complex wireless networks with different volatility, revealing the possibility of future development.

This paper designs a deep learning-based closed-loop detection algorithm for indoor space. You only look once (YOLO) v3 was adopted to detect the objects in the scene, extract the semantic and position information of the non-dynamic objects contained in the current frame, and solve the similarities between the current frame and key historical frame, thereby completing closed-loop detection. In our network structure, the prior static semantic library is employed to differentiate and eliminate the dynamic objects in the scene, such that the network can apply to most indoor scenes. In addition, the closed-loop detection was made immune to the disturbance of dynamic objects. The extracted semantic information can be applied to modules like visual odometer and semantic maps.

Infectious cloning of plant viruses is a powerful tool for studying the reverse genetic manipulation of viral genes in virus–host plant interactions, contributing to a deeper understanding of the life history and pathogenesis of viruses. Yet, most of the infectious clones of RNA virus constructed in E. coli are unstable and toxic. Therefore, we modified the binary vector pCass4-Rz and constructed the ternary shuttle vector pCA4Y. The pCA4Y vector has a higher copy number in the E. coli than the conventional pCB301 vector, can obtain a high concentration of plasmid, and is economical and practical, so it is suitable for the construction of plant virus infectious clones in basic laboratories. The constructed vector can be directly extracted from yeast and transformed into Agrobacterium tumefaciens to avoid toxicity in E. coli. Taking advantage of the pCA4Y vector, we established a detailed large and multiple DNA HR-based cloning method in yeast using endogenous recombinase. We successfully constructed the Agrobacterium-based infectious cDNA clone of ReMV. This study provides a new choice for the construction of infectious viral clones.

With the development of mobile communications and Internet of things (IoT), the Internet of vehicles (IoV) has become commonplace. To integrate the heterogenous IoV networks, this paper mainly explores the heterogenous network selection mechanism for the IoV. Considering the diversity of IoV networks, the authors proposed a heterogenous network selection algorithm based on comprehensive weight. Based on different service scenarios and user preferences, the proposed algorithm obtains the subjective weights of candidate networks, calculates the objective weights of judgement indices by entropy method, and combines the subjective and objective weights into a comprehensive weight. On this basis, the candidate networks were analyzed by the utility function (UF), and the optimal network was selected for access. The research results provide a reference for high-quality access to heterogenous networks.

Nowadays air pollution is serious. A humidifier can effectively improve the ambient humidity, and the negative oxygen ions released by its atomization are beneficial to people’s health. However, the function of the humidifier is relatively simple at present. An STM32 is used as the core processing unit, a speech recognition module based on LD3320 and a speech synthesis module based on SYN6288 are chosen as the control mode, a more practical and convenient smart humidifier is designed in this paper. ADHT11 temperature and humidity sensor are used to collect ambient humidity, and the collected information is displayed in OLED after MCU processing. If the current air humidity is less than the set value and the water level reaches the standard, the humidifier will begin to humidify. Voice warning is issued when the water level of the humidifier is too low. Besides, the opening and stopping of humidification can be controlled by voice. The testing results show that the humidifier designed is stable with a high-speech recognition rate.

With the rapid development of social economy, excessive discharge of industrial sewage leads to water pollution, and it also affects the quality of domestic water. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the water quality.

With the rapid increase of global data traffic, storage and transmission of massive data is a challenging problem. Therefore, data compression is necessary. Based on DRoF, mobile fronthual has the advantages of high data rate, good connectivity and system capacity, and becomes the key part of communication system transmission. In this paper, an optimized vector quantization data compression algorithm based on DRoF system is proposed, which mainly studies OFDM baseband modulation signals. Firstly, the modulation signal is transformed by DCT. Then the optimized fast-global K-means clustering algorithm is used for quantization to overcome the problem that the original algorithm may choose noise points as the cluster center. Finally, Huffman coding is used to reduce the code length of the quantized data. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm has good CR and EVM performance within the error tolerance range. It has a high degree of compression and signal recovery.

The rapid development of 5G communication provides a huge opportunity for the research on the Internet of vehicles. With the increasing shortage of low-frequency spectrum resources and the demand for high transmission rates for the architecture of the internet of vehicles, the highly qualified millimeter wave has been combined into the research on the internet of vehicles.

With the continuous development of electronic technology, the previous traditional methods of blood pressure testing are far from meeting people’s requirements. Fortunately, the advent of electronic blood pressure meters has shown great convenience and potential. Against the backdrop, a new electric blood pressure testing system based on a CC3200 LaunchPad is proposed in this paper, which uses a pressure sensor to collect the information of static pressure and fluctuation of blood pressure, and then transmits the processed data to the software in PC. The software in PC analyzes the data by oscillometric method and Gaussian fitting method, and then the static pressure, systolic pressure and diastolic pressure are calculated and displayed. Test results show that the blood pressure testing efficiency is greatly improved by this system with its high accuracy and reliability, which can meet the requirement of the AAMI (Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation) standard.

Virtual multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology has been widely researched in the aspect of energy conservation for wireless sensor network (WSN) communication. In this this paper, data transmission for the entire network based on virtual MIMO WSN structure is studied, combined with clustering and multi-hop transmission mode. Each cluster head (CH) is formed according to the clustering algorithm, and the data is transmitted to the adjacent CH by cooperative communication mode. The circuit energy consumption and the transmission energy consumption are both considered in our model, so the minimum inter-cluster transmission energy consumption is obtained, and the optimal path to the sink node is obtained. The proposed strategy does not need the receiver’s collaboration to avoid the complexity of the receiver; meanwhile more energy consumption of the network is saved from the perspective of the network life cycle. The simulation results show that the proposed strategy can reduce more energy consumption and prolong the network life cycle.
