An OFDM-CDMA scheme for high data rate UWB applications

Abstract

In this paper, we investigate a new waveform for UWB systems obtained by the combination of Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) and Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA). The proposed system, called Spread Spectrum - Multi-Carrier - Multiple Access (SS-MC-MA) turns out to be a judicious solution to combat frequency selectivity and narrowband interferers, and to manage the coexistence of several users and piconets. It is shown that the addition of a degree of freedom brought by the spreading component of SS-MC-MA allows to optimize jointly the assignment of the number of used codes and coding rates in order to make the system more robust. Through simulations, it is demonstrated that the new system can outperform Multi-Band OFDM Alliance (MBOA) for low data rates and is able to provide wider range of rates.

Automatic-Differentiation-Enabled Finite Element Model Updating: Learning Constitutive Neural Networks from Structural Deformation Data

The identification of constitutive neural network models from heterogeneous full-field deformation data provides a robust alternative to traditional calibration methods based on homogeneous stress-strain experiments, particularly given the high dimensionality of trainable parameters. This work presents ADE-FEMU (Automatic-Differentiation-Enabled Finite Element Model Updating), an end-to-end differentiable framework that integrates a constitutive neural network model within a JAX-FEM nonlinear solver and identifies its parameters through gradient-based minimization of a measurement-mismatch loss, allowing for training on structural data with limited kinetic information. Thus, it can be considered as an extension of finite element model updating (FEMU) for hyperelastic materials, implemented within a GPU-accelerated, fully automatically differentiable finite element framework Newton tangent stiffness and loss gradients are computed automatically using forward- and reverse-mode automatic differentiation throughout the entire pipeline, thereby removing the need for analytic adjoints or offline surrogate models. ADE-FEMU is demonstrated for two architectures: a grey-box Constitutive Artificial Neural Network (CANN), a polyconvex, fully connected model with high flexibility, and a white-box CANN, an expert-system network with phenomenologically interpretable strain-energy terms. Focusing on incompressible isotropic hyperelasticity, ADE-FEMU is evaluated on three open experimental datasets: (1) full digital image correlation (DIC) of a perforated tensile specimen, (2) a reduced-data scenario with a one-dimensional stretch profile and global force-displacement curve, and (3) a heterogeneous matrix-inclusion system in which both phases constitutive laws are identified and generalized to twenty-two previously unseen samples.

A neural delta-$f$ particle-in-cell method: evolving the background with learned backward flows

We present a novel δf particle-in-cell (PIC) method for the kinetic simulation of electrostatic plasmas in which the bulk density, acting as a control variate, is evolved using symplectic neural networks (SympNets). The SympNets are used as an approximation of the backward flow and trained using the particle trajectories. We introduce a periodic variant of the SympNet architecture that encodes the spatial periodicity of the problem into the network itself. We validate the approach with numerical results in 1D1V and 3D3V for the Vlasov-Poisson system.

All-electron RT-TDDFT with Exact Exchange based on Numeric Atom-centered Orbitals for Condensed Matter

Real-time time-dependent density functional theory (RT-TDDFT) has become a widely used first-principles method for studying excited-state and nonequilibrium electron dynamics. Hybrid exchange-correlation (XC) functionals, which incorporate a fraction of nonlocal exact exchange, are particularly important for accurately describing processes such as charge transfer and hot-carrier dynamics. However, the high computational cost which accompanies exact exchange, as required in hybrid XC functionals, has largely restricted RT-TDDFT simulations of condensed matter systems to using semi-local XC functionals. In this work, we present an all-electron implementation of exact exchange for RT-TDDFT based on numeric atom-centered orbitals, extending an efficient ground-state resolution-of-identity (RI) framework to the complex, time-dependent Hamiltonians required for real-time propagation. We validate the implementation against an established RI approach, for an isolated water molecule, finding exact agreement for both valence and core (K-edge) excitations. We also demonstrate the method on two extended periodic systems, crystalline silicon and silicon carbide. For silicon, the HSE06 spectrum reproduces previously reported real-time TDDFT results and agrees with experiment to within approximately 0.2~eV, consistent with plane-wave pseudopotential implementations. For silicon carbide, we compute valence and X-ray absorption spectra at the silicon $L$-edge and carbon $K$-edge. These results establish an efficient, all-electron route to hybrid-XC functional RT-TDDFT for both molecular and condensed matter systems.
