Abstract: The present invention discloses a coevolution-based multi-beamforming optimizing method for space-based ADS-B, which belongs to the field of aviation technologies. According to this method, after initializing population and acquiring an initial optimal solution, optimization parameters are firstly grouped randomly so that all beams form several significant uncovered regions. Then, grouping is performed by an adaptive grouping strategy based on the relative orientation between the mean center of the largest uncovered region and the direction of each beam, so that the parameters quickly converge to a full-coverage state within the half angle of the satellite. Finally, grouping is performed by a grouping strategy based on the aircraft density covered by each beam to obtain optimally the minimal update time interval under a full-coverage constraint.

Abstract: Selective radiation of radio frequency (RF) reference beams in a wireless communications system (WCS) based on user equipment (UE) locations is disclosed. The WCS may include a radio node that communicates RF communications signals in a coverage area via RF beamforming. Thus, the radio node is required to periodically radiate a number of RF reference beams in different directions of the coverage area to help UEs to identify a best-possible RF beam(s). However, radiating the RF beams in different directions periodically can increase power consumption of the radio node, particularly when the UEs are concentrated at a handful of locations in the coverage area. In this regard, the radio node can be configured to selectively radiate a subset of the RF reference beams based on a determined location(s) of the UE(s) in the coverage area, thus making it possible to reduce computational complexity and power consumption of the radio node.
