With the wide application of wireless sensor networks in military and environmental monitoring, security issues have become increasingly prominent. Data exchanged over wireless sensor networks is vulnerable to malicious attacks due to the lack of physical defense equipment. Therefore, corresponding schemes of intrusion detection are urgently needed to defend against such attacks. Considering the serious class imbalance of the intrusion dataset, this paper proposes a method of using the synthetic minority oversampling technique (SMOTE) to balance the dataset and then uses the random forest algorithm to train the classifier for intrusion detection. The simulations are conducted on a benchmark intrusion dataset, and the accuracy of the random forest algorithm has reached 92.39%, which is higher than other comparison algorithms. After oversampling the minority samples, the accuracy of the random forest combined with the SMOTE has increased to 92.57%. This shows that the proposed algorithm provides an effective solution to solve the problem of class imbalance and improves the performance of intrusion detection.

Blind identification of encoders has received increasing attention in recent years. In this paper, we focus on LDPC coded communication systems and study the problem of blind identification over a candidate set. We propose a blind identification method based on a two-stage maximum a posteriori probability estimation. The first stage measures the parity-check relationship between the received vectors and the rows of the parity-check matrices in the candidate set, and the second stage deals with the effect of row weights. Moreover, We theoretically explained the mechanism by which row weight affects identification results and proved that the proposed method can considerably suppress the preference of the existing methods for low row weights. Simulation results show that the proposed method always has a higher probability of correct identification for parity-check matrices with high row weights in the candidate set than the existing methods.

In digital communication systems, error correction codes are used to recover data that has been disturbed in a noisy environment. Convolutional code is a commonly used error correction code. In non-cooperative communication systems, it is very meaningful to blindly identify the synchronization position and coding parameters of convolutional codes. Existing reference had proposed a blind recognition algorithm for coding parameters of $k/n$ rate convolutional codes in a noisy environment, but it didn’t take into account the case where the received code words were not synchronized. In this paper, this problem is improved by using the quasi-correlation between the receive sequence and the check matrix to estimate the synchronization position, while obtaining the check matrix. It implements blind recognition of the synchronization position and coding parameters of $k/n$ rate convolutional codes in a noisy environment. Simulation experimental results show that the improved algorithm in this paper is effective.

There are many algorithms that can be used to fuse sensor data. The complementary filtering algorithm has low computational complexity and good real-time performance characteristics. It is very suitable for attitude estimation of small unmanned aerial vehicles (micro-UAVs) equipped with low-cost inertial measurement units (IMUs). However, its low attitude estimation accuracy severely limits its applications. Though, many methods have been proposed by researchers to improve attitude estimation accuracy of complementary filtering algorithms, there are few studies that aim to improve it from the data processing aspect. In this paper, a real-time first-order differential data processing algorithm is proposed for gyroscope data, and an adaptive adjustment strategy is designed for the parameters in the algorithm. Besides, the differential-nonlinear complementary filtering (D-NCF) algorithm is proposed by combine the first-order differential data processing algorithm with the basic nonlinear complementary filtering (NCF) algorithm. The experimental results show that the first-order differential data processing algorithm can effectively correct the gyroscope data, and the Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of attitude estimation of the D-NCF algorithm is smaller than when the NCF algorithm is used. The RMSE of the roll angle decreases from 1.1653 to 0.5093, that of the pitch angle decreases from 2.9638 to 1.5542, and that of the yaw angle decreases from 0.9398 to 0.6827. In general, the attitude estimation accuracy of D-NCF algorithm is higher than that of the NCF algorithm.

As optical performance monitoring (OPM) requires accurate and robust solutions to tackle the increasing dynamic and complicated optical network architectures, we experimentally demonstrate an end-to-end optical signal-to-noise (OSNR) estimation method based on the convolutional neural network (CNN), named OptInception. The design principles of the proposed scheme are specified. The idea behind the combination of the Inception module and finite impulse response (FIR) filter is elaborated as well. We experimentally evaluate the mean absolute error (MAE) and root-mean-squared error (RMSE) of the OSNR monitored in PDM-QPSK and PDM-16QAM signals under various symbol rates. The results suggest that the MAE reaches as low as 0.125 dB and RMSE is 0.246 dB in general. OptInception is also proved to be insensitive to the symbol rate, modulation format, and chromatic dispersion. The investigation of kernels in CNN indicates that the proposed scheme helps convolutional layers learn much more than a lowpass filter or bandpass filter. Finally, a comparison in performance and complexity presents the advantages of OptInception.
