When a Very-Low-Frequency (VLF) antenna is towed in a circular flightpath at a constant altitude, the spatial configuration of the antenna can become relatively stationary with the orbiting aircraft. Accordingly, a quasi-stationary model of the towed ant...

In this work, we exploit a multi-antenna cooperative jammer to enable secure short packet communications in Internet of Things (IoT) networks. Specifically, we propose three jamming schemes to combat eavesdropping, i.e., the zero forcing beamforming (ZFB...

Concentric circular antenna arrays (CCAAs) can obtain better performance than other antenna arrays. However, high overhead and excessive sidelobes still make its application difficult. In this paper, we consider the sparse synthesis optimization of CCAAs...

Unlike common rotating machines, shipborne antennas always work under variable loads and suffer from extreme ocean conditions, which makes monitoring their condition and early fault identification necessary and challenging. However, extracting weak fault...

The beetle antenna search algorithm (BAS) converges rapidly and runs in a short time, but it is prone to yielding values corresponding to local extrema when dealing with high-dimensional problems, and its optimization result is unstable. The artificial f...
