Physical Layer Challenge-Response Authentication between Ambient Backscatter Devices
Ambient backscatter communication (AmBC) has become an integral part of ubiquitous Internet of Things (IoT) applications due to its energy-harvesting capabilities and ultra-low-power consumption. However, the open wireless environment exposes AmBC systems to various attacks, and existing authentication methods cannot be implemented between resource-constrained backscatter devices (BDs) due to their high computational demands.To this end, this paper proposes PLCRA-BD, a novel physical layer chal…

JUNO 20-inch PMT and electronics system characterization using large pulses of PMT dark counts at the Pan-Asia testing platform
The main goal of the JUNO experiment is to determine the neutrino mass ordering with a 20kt liquid-scintillator detector. The 20-inch PMT and its 1F3 (one for three) electronics are crucial to realize the excellent energy resolution of at least 3% at 1MeV. The knowledge on the PMT and 1F3 electronics response is critical for detector performance understanding. A study of the JUNO 20-inch PMT and 1F3 electronics system characterization is presented using large pulses of PMT dark count at the Pan…

Kanada: Erreichen NATO-Ziel früher
Kanada wird die NATO-Richtlinie für Militärausgaben bis Anfang nächsten Jahres erfüllen und die Verteidigungsausgaben von den Vereinigten Staaten abkoppeln, die nach Ansicht von Premierminister Mark Carney auf der Weltbühne keine vorherrschende Rolle mehr spielen. Carney sagte, Kanada werde das Zwei-Prozent-Ziel der NATO fünf Jahre früher erreichen als bisher gepla…

Energy budget in the 2017-09-07 "cold" solar flare
A subclass of early impulsive solar flares, cold flares, was proposed to represent a clean case, where the release of the free magnetic energy (almost) entirely goes to acceleration of the nonthermal electrons, while the observed thermal response is entirely driven by the nonthermal energy deposition to the ambient plasma. This paper studies one more example of a cold flare, which was observed by a unique combination of instruments. In particular, this is the first cold flare observed with the …
