We report ab initio calculations of the electronic and vibrational properties in CuPb9(PO4)6O, including the electron-phonon coupling strength via strong-coupling Migdal-Eliashberg theory. We verify the presence of appealing flat electronic bands near the Fermi level, a strong hybridization between the Cu 3d and O 2p states, and soft low-energy phonons, which can suggest high-temperature superconducting behavior. However, the electron-phonon coupling strength appears insufficient to overcome the Coulomb repulsion between an electron pair and thus does not support high-temperature superconductivity in CuPb9(PO4)6O via the conventional electron-phonon Migdal-Eliashberg mechanism. Even neglecting Coulomb repulsion of the electron pair we find this electron-phonon coupling suggests a superconducting transition temperature of less than 2 K.

To efficiently provide coverage for the machines and robots in remote areas, satellites and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be utilized. In such scenarios, UAVs need to integrate different functions to support the control tasks of robots efficiently, while satellites can serve as backhaul to the cloud. To improve the overall performance of the closed-loop control tasks of robots, we jointly optimize the communication and computing resource allocation with data offloading. Specif-ically, we explore the linear quadratic regulator (LQR) cost to measure the control performance and formulate a sum LQR cost minimization problem. An iterative algorithm is proposed to solve the optimization problem. Simulation results are provided to demonstrate the superiority of the proposed scheme.
