Symbol Rate and Carries Estimation in OFDM Framework: A high Accuracy Technique under Low SNR

Under a low Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR), the Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing (OFDM) signal symbol rate is limited. Existing carrier number estimation algorithms lack adequate methods to deal with low SNR. This paper proposes an algorithm with a low error rate under low SNR by correlating the signal and applying a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) operation. By improving existing algorithms, we improve the performance of the OFDM carrier count algorithm. The performance of the OFDM's useful symbol time estimation algorithm is improved by estimating the number of carriers and symbol rate.

I-WKNN: Fast-Speed and High-Accuracy WIFI Positioning for Intelligent Stadiums

Based on various existing wireless fingerprint location algorithms in intelligent sports venues, a high-precision and fast indoor location algorithm improved weighted k-nearest neighbor (I-WKNN) is proposed. In order to meet the complex environment of sports venues and the demand of high-speed sampling, this paper proposes an AP selection algorithm for offline and online stages. Based on the characteristics of the signal intensity distribution in intelligent venues, an asymmetric Gaussian filter algorithm is proposed. This paper introduces the application of the positioning algorithm in the intelligent stadium system, and completes the data acquisition and real-time positioning of the stadium. Compared with traditional WKNN and KNN algorithms, the I-WKNN algorithm has advantages in fingerprint positioning database processing, environmental noise adaptability, real-time positioning accuracy and positioning speed, etc. The experimental results show that the I-WKNN algorithm has obvious advantages in positioning accuracy and positioning time in a complex noise environment and has obvious application potential in a smart stadium.

Knowledge Graph Augmented Political Perspective Detection in News Media

Identifying political perspective in news media has become an important task due to the rapid growth of political commentary and the increasingly polarized ideologies. Previous approaches only focus on leveraging the semantic information and leaves out the rich social and political context that helps individuals understand political stances. In this paper, we propose a perspective detection method that incorporates external knowledge of real-world politics. Specifically, we construct a contemporary political knowledge graph with 1,071 entities and 10,703 triples. We then build a heterogeneous information network for each news document that jointly models article semantics and external knowledge in knowledge graphs. Finally, we apply gated relational graph convolutional networks and conduct political perspective detection as graph-level classification. Extensive experiments show that our method achieves the best performance and outperforms state-of-the-art methods by 5.49%. Numerous ablation studies further bear out the necessity of external knowledge and the effectiveness of our graph-based approach.
