Patent number: 11777636Abstract: A joint link-level and network-level intelligent system and method for dynamic spectrum anti-jamming are provided. The system includes a link-level anti-jamming subsystem and a network-level anti-jamming subsystem. The link-level anti-jamming subsystem sets a reward value as system transmission throughput in a single decision cycle, and a user makes an intelligent frequency usage decision based on the obtained reward value to skip a frequency band in which jamming exists. The network-level anti-jamming subsystem performs reasonable frequency band allocation and management for lower-level sub-users when link-level anti-jamming fails to further enhance a frequency domain anti-jamming capability of the entire system. The users make intelligent frequency usage decisions through a dynamic spectrum anti-jamming algorithm based on reinforcement learning to effectively avoid external malicious jamming, realize dynamic spectrum access, and enhance a frequency domain anti-jamming capability of the system.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2022Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: NANJING UNIVERSITY OF AERONAUTICS AND ASTRONAUTICSInventors: Nan Qi, Luliang Jia, Diliao Ye, Qihui Wu, Xiaojie Li, Yijia Liu, Wei Wang

Patent number: 11231980Abstract: The disclosure provides a method, a device and a system for fault detection. The fault detection method includes following steps: acquiring interactive data generated during a working process of a target Internet of Things system, and generating data to be detected based on the interactive data; detecting whether the data to be detected is fault data or not, and performing an emotion analysis on the data to be detected which is judged as the fault data to obtain a corresponding emotion label; and extracting a corresponding fault type from a preset fault emotion mapping table based on the emotion label and outputting the fault type. In this disclosure, the interactive data is analogized to human emotions, and the faults are accurately found through the emotional analysis on the data, thereby achieving the fault detection of the Internet of Things system in a convenient, flexible and accurate manner.Type: GrantFiled: March 9, 2021Date of Patent: January 25, 2022Assignee: Zhejiang Gongshang UniversityInventors: Xiaoning Jiang, Zhendong Yu, Jiahao Yao, Kelei Jiang, Fengqing Zhang, Hongmin Xie, Kai Liu, Jian Fang, Jia'nan Qi, Yuhan Zhou

Patent number: 10805004Abstract: Examples described herein relate to reducing a magnitude of a supply voltage for a circuit element of an optical transmitter device. In some such examples, the circuit element is a driving element that is to receive a first electrical data signal and to provide a second electrical data signal to an optical element that is to provide an optical data signal. A testing element is to compare the optical data signal to the first electrical data signal to determine whether the optical transmitter device meets a performance threshold. When the device meets the performance threshold, a regulating element is to reduce a magnitude of the supply voltage of the driving element.Type: GrantFiled: April 7, 2017Date of Patent: October 13, 2020Assignee: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LPInventors: Tsung Ching Huang, Rui Wu, Nan Qi, Mir Ashkan Seyedi, Marco Fiorentino, Raymond G.

Patent number: 10613357Abstract: One example of a system includes an optical modulator, a push-pull driver, and a compensation circuit. The optical modulator has a nonlinear capacitance. The push-pull driver is electrically coupled across the optical modulator. The push-pull driver charges the capacitance in response to a logic ‘1’ of a level-shifted differential signal and discharges the capacitance in response to a logic ‘0’ of the level-shifted differential signal. The compensation circuit increases the speed of the discharge of the capacitance in response to the level-shifted differential signal transitioning from a logic ‘1’ to a logic ‘0’.Type: GrantFiled: October 28, 2015Date of Patent: April 7, 2020Assignee: Hewlett Packard Enterprise Development LPInventors: Nan Qi, Cheng Li, Marco Fiorentino
