TL;DR: The analysis indicates that it is not optimal to form a beam toward either the strong user or the weak user in NOMA systems for security enhancement, so the optimal power allocation among useful signals and AN is determined together with the two optimal factors in order to maximize the secrecy sum rate (SSR).
Abstract: In this paper, we propose a novel beamforming design to enhance physical layer security of a non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) system with the aid of artificial noise (AN). The proposed design uses two factors to balance the useful signal strength and interference at the strong and weak users, which is a generalized version of the existing beamforming designs in the context of physical layer security for NOMA. We determine the optimal power allocation among useful signals and AN together with the two optimal factors in order to maximize the secrecy sum rate (SSR). Our asymptotic analysis in the high signal-to-noise ratio regime provides an efficient and near-optimal solution to optimize the beamforming scalars and power allocation coefficients. Our analysis indicates that it is not optimal to form a beam toward either the strong user or the weak user in NOMA systems for security enhancement. In addition, the asymptotically optimal power allocation informs that, as the transmit power increases, more power should be allocated to the weak user or AN signals, while the power allocated to the strong user keeps constant. Our examination shows that the proposed novel beamforming design can significantly outperform two benchmark schemes.

TL;DR: It was revealed that the concentration and distribution of nutrients varied between different areas of sediment within Lake Chaohu because of the influence of different drainage basins and pollution sources.
Abstract: In this study, the sediment profiles of total organic carbon, total nitrogen, C/N ratios, total phosphorus, N/P ratios, C/P ratios, particle sizes, and stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes (δ(13)C and δ(15)N) were used to investigate natural and anthropogenic impacts on Lake Chaohu over the past 100 years. Before 1960, Lake Chaohu experienced low productivity and a relatively steady and low nutrient input. The increasing concentration and fluxes of total organic carbon, total nitrogen, total phosphorus, together with changes in the δ(13)C and δ(15)N of organic material in the sediment cores, suggested that the anthropogenic effects on trophic status first started because of an increase in nutrient input caused by a population increase in the drainage area. With the construction of the Chaohu Dam, an increase in the utilization of fertilizer and the population growth which occurred since 1960, stable depositional conditions and increasing nutrient input resulted in a dominantly algae-derived organic matter source and high productivity. Nutrient input increased most significantly around 1980 following the rapidly growing population, with concomitant urbanization, industrial and agricultural development. This study also revealed that the concentration and distribution of nutrients varied between different areas of sediment within Lake Chaohu because of the influence of different drainage basins and pollution sources.

TL;DR: A facile one-step-reduction method was developed to prepare a bismuth nanostructure in aqueous solution that exhibits excellent performance for CO2 electroreduction, and the density functional theory calculation confirms that the formation of intermediate *OCHO that finally converts to formate is thermodynamically favorable on Bi high-index planes.
Abstract: Electrochemically converting carbon dioxide (CO2) to formate offers a promising approach for energy conversion and storage. Bismuth is believed to be one of the promising candidates for CO2 electroreduction, but the poor selectivity and complexity of synthesis limit its real application on a large scale. In this work, a facile one-step-reduction method was developed to prepare a bismuth nanostructure in aqueous solution. Owing to its enhanced reactive sites and exposed crystal plane, the prepared Bi nanostructure exhibits excellent performance for CO2 electroreduction, which reaches the maximum faradaic efficiency for formate as high as 92% at a potential of -0.9 V versus a reversible hydrogen electrode. Additionally, the large current density and remarkable durability also reveal its high intrinsic CO2 electroreduction activity. The density functional theory calculation confirms that the formation of intermediate *OCHO that finally converts to formate is thermodynamically favorable on Bi high-index planes. We anticipate that such a facile synthesis strategy and excellent electrocatalytic performance of the Bi nanostructure will be easy to scale up, realizing its industrialization applications in CO2 electrochemical conversion.

TL;DR: The results show that the MCPS based on blockchain not only realizes medical treatment data sharing, but also meet the various security requirements in the security authentication phase, and the proposed scheme is more suitable for secure sharing of medical big data.
Abstract: With the rapid development of technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, cloud computing, and big data, Medical Cyber Physical Systems (MCPS) are increasingly demanding data security, while cloud storage solves the storage problem of complex medical data. However, it is difficult to realize data security sharing. The decentralization feature of blockchain is helpful to solve the problem that the secure authentication process is highly dependent on the trusted third party and implement data security transmission. In this paper, the blockchain technology is used to describe the security requirements in authentication process, and a network model of MCPS based on blockchain is proposed. Through analysis of medical data storage architecture, it can ensure that data can't be tampered and untrackable. In the security authentication phase, bilinear mapping and intractable problems can be used to solve the security threat in the authentication process of medical data providers and users. It can avoid the credibility problem of the trusted third party, and also can realize the ?thyc=10?>two-way authentication between the hospital and blockchain node. Then, BAN logic is used to analyze security protocols, and formal analysis and comparison of security protocols are also made. The results show that the MCPS based on blockchain not only realizes medical treatment data sharing, but also meet the various security requirements in the security authentication phase. In addition, the storage and computing overhead costs is ideal. Therefore, the proposed scheme is more suitable for secure sharing of medical big data.
