Nowadays, wirelesssensornetworks (WSNs) play a significant role in data collection and dissemination in various applications. In hierarchically clustered WSN models, the cluster heads (CHs) consume more energy due to the additional workload of receiving, aggregating, and transmitting data from their member nodes to the sink. The CH selection is important in extending the lifetime of WSNs by conserving energy expenditure at sensor nodes. Therefore, this paper proposes a Deep Learning based Enhanced Data Aggregation with Multi-Objective Optimization method in wirelesssensornetwork. The Gazelle Optimization Algorithm (GOA) is employed for the energy-efficient cluster-head selection with the incorporation of a well-defined fitness function constructed with intra-cluster proximity, sink proximity, and the residual energy. A single candidate optimizer (SCO) is introduced to select the most suitable routes from the CH to the sink node, considering factors such as energy and proximity. To enhance the efficiency of data aggregation (DA), a novel approach is introduced using a Self-Attention-Based Provisional Variational-Auto-Encoder Generative-Adversarial-network (SPVAGAN). The proposed framework demonstrates its effectiveness in Energy Consumption (Ec), Packet Delivery Ratio (PDR), End-to-End Delay (E2ED), communication Overhead (CoH), and Data Accuracy over the other models.

The next generation of wirelessnetwork 6G is envisioned to enable seamless global connectivity for the Internet of Everything (IoE) on the Earth. To this end, implementing high-speed wirelesscommunication from the deep ocean to the sea surface leveraging multiple autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) with underwater wireless optical communication (UWOC) is an emerging and promising technology that enables real-time data collection for accurate underwater exploration and monitoring, for example, coordinated moving target monitoring. However, multihop UWOC is more susceptible to beam misalignment and positional uncertainty caused by external interference in the harsh environment. To address these challenges, we design a cooperative movement scheme for multiple AUVs based on a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) approach to perform robust optical communication. We first model the optical channel and then analyze the link performance to satisfy the bit error rate (BER) requirements. Afterward, we map the cooperative optical communication problem into a Markov decision process (MDP) and then we propose a deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG)-based cooperative movement strategy, which is integrated with the extended Kalman filter (EKF) technique. Finally, we design a multi-AUV adaptive adjustment scheme for enhanced optical link adaptation, including an optical link distance adjustment algorithm, and an adaptive transmit power adjustment algorithm based on twin-delayed deep deterministic policy gradient (TD3). Through extensive simulations, it is demonstrated that the proposed algorithms are effective in achieving cooperative and adaptive underwater optical communication via multi-AUV under mobile scenarios.

wireless rechargeable sensornetworks (WRSNs) have emerged as a promising solution to overcome the energy bottleneck in traditional battery-powered sensornetworks. However, the uncertain energy demands and dense deployment of sensor nodes pose significant challenges to efficient charging scheduling in WRSNs. To address these challenges, this article proposes a novel multi-AAV assisted on-demand partial charging scheduling (MOPCS) algorithm. MOPCS integrates the advantages of one-to-many charging, partial charging, and dynamic multi-AAV coordination to maximize the network lifetime and energy utilization. The key contributions of this work include a real-time adaptive charging scheduling trigger mechanism, an energy-efficient charging cluster division method, a spatiotemporally balanced task allocation among multiple autonomous aerial vehicles (AAVs), and a hybrid priority-based charging path planning algorithm. Extensive simulations demonstrate that MOPCS significantly outperforms state-of-the-art algorithms in terms of charging request response timeliness, node survival rate, and AAV energy efficiency, especially in dense network deployments. This work provides valuable insights and practical solutions for the design and optimization of AAV-assisted charging scheduling in WRSNs, paving the way for more sustainable and scalable wirelesssensornetworks in various application scenarios.

The ever-increasing reliance on wirelesscommunication and sensing has led to growing concerns over the vulnerability of sensitive information to unauthorized detection and interception. Traditional anti-detection methods are often inadequate, struggling with limited adaptability and diminished effectiveness against advanced detection technologies. To overcome these challenges, this article presents intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) technology as a groundbreaking tool for enabling flexible electromagnetic manipulation, which has the potential to revolutionize anti-detection in both electromagnetic stealth/spoofing (evading radar detection) and covert communication (facilitating secure information exchange). We explore the fundamental principles of IRS technology for anti-detection, highlight its advantages over traditional anti-detection techniques, and discuss the main design challenges for implementing IRS-based anti-detection systems. Through the examination of case studies and future research directions, we provide a comprehensive overview of the potential of IRS technology to serve as a formidable shield in the modern wireless landscape.

In a coherent communication system consisting of an open-loop distributed transmit array sending messages to a distributed receive array, the combined transmit-receive gain is characterized by the coherent communication gain (CCG). We consider the problem of optimizing CCG using the positions of the individual transmitter and receiver nodes as well as the beam angle of the transmit array as degrees of freedom. We focus on the use of gradient descent to find locally optimal configurations for node positions, which is motivated by two observations: first, the NP-hardness of the problem precludes an exhaustive search for the globally optimal configuration of node positions;and second, the positions of the network nodes are likely not arbitrary. That is, the initial, nonoptimized node placement is intentional and is determined by higher-layer network objectives. The hypothesis is that the CCG of a communicationnetwork can be improved in a deterministic fashion using the steepest descent algorithm to make relatively small adjustments to node positions. We develop the closed-form expressions for the rate of change of CCG with respect to node positions and transmit array beam angle. Next, we use the expressions to implement a spherical quadratic steepest descent (SQSD) algorithm and use simulations to test SQSD alongside pattern search and particle swarm optimization to determine theoretical gain improvements achieved by the algorithms, as well as the expected average node displacement.

Due to the fast advancement in wirelesscommunicationtechnology, the demand for the modeling and generating of wireless channels is increasing. Deep learning technology is gradually applied in the wirelesscommunication field, and the Generative Adversarial network (GAN) framework provides a new solution for channel modeling. This paper presents a method based on Wasserstein GAN with gradient penalty (WGAN-GP) guided by an attention mechanism for wireless channel modeling and generating. The feature extraction capability of the model is enhanced by adding a channel attention mechanism in WGAN-GP, and the representation capability of the model is enhanced by adaptively recalibrating the channel feature response. The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach accurately models the channel distribution and generates data that closely aligns with the real channel distribution. The proposed method has been shown to achieve superior qualitative and quantitative evaluation compared to the existing method.

“Ohmic-before-passivation” process was implemented on ultrathin-barrier AlGaN(<6 nm)/GaN heterostructure to further reduce the ohmic contact resistance(Rc). In this process, alloyed Ti/Al/Ni/Au ohmic metal was formed first, followed by AlN/SiNxpassivation contributed to restore two-dimensional electron gas(2DEG) in the access region. Due to the sharp change in the concentration of 2DEG at the metal edge, a reduced transfer length consisted with lower Rcare achieved compared to that of ohmic contact on AlGaN(~20 nm)/GaN heterostructure with pre-ohmic recess process. Temperature-dependent current voltage measurements demonstrate that the carrier transport mechanism is dominated by thermionic field emission above 200 K and by field emission below 200 K. The “ohmic-before-passivation” process enables the relative stability of ohmic contacts between 50 K and 475 K and significantly improves the direct current characteristics of GaN-metal-insulator-semiconductor-high electron mobility transistor, offering a promising means for scaling down and enabling the utilization of low-voltage GaN-based power devices in extreme environmental conditions.
