Millimeter-wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems allow for a data transmission rate of gigabits per second owing to the large bandwidth available in the mmWave spectrum and the antenna gains provided by the massive MIMO system. However, hybrid precoding with high complexity and low spectral efficiency cannot address the challenge of high cost and power consumption of RF chains of multi-user systems. In this paper, we propose a low-complexity hybrid precoding scheme for downlink multi-antenna multi-user mmWave massive MIMO systems, aiming to enhance the sum spectral efficiency (SSE) performance. We first extend the dimension of the analog precoding matrix into a square matrix and find the optimal analog combiner by selecting some of the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) bases, which enhances the equivalent baseband channel matrix gain. Then, we directly aggregate the channel gain through the equal gain transmission (EGT) method to ensure the frequency efficiency performance. Finally, we propose an improved BD scheme to design the digital precoder and combiner to reduce the inter-user interference. We consider both the mmWave channel and the Rayleigh channel to evaluate the performance of the proposed algorithm. The simulation results verify that the proposed scheme enjoys near-optimal achievable sum spectrum efficiency and BER performance in both the mmWave channel and Rayleigh channel and performs even better in Rayleigh channel than in the mmWave channel.
Aerosols suspended in the atmosphere negatively affect air quality and public health and promote global climate change. The Guanzhong area in China was selected as the study area. Air quality data from July 2018 to June 2021 were recorded daily, and 19 haze periods were selected for this study. The Hybrid Single-Particle Lagrangian Integrated Trajectory (HYSPLIT) model was used to simulate the air mass transport trajectory during this haze period to classify the formation process. The spatial distribution of the aerosol optical depth (AOD) was obtained by processing Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data using the dark target (DT) method. Three factors were used to analyze the AOD spatial distribution characteristics based on the perceptual hashing algorithm (PHA): GDP, population density, and topography. Correlations between aerosols and the wind direction, wind speed, and precipitation were analyzed using weather station data. The research results showed that the haze period in Guanzhong was mainly due to locally generated haze (94.7%). The spatial distribution factors are GDP, population density, and topography. The statistical results showed that wind direction mainly affected aerosol diffusion in Guanzhong, while wind speed (r = −0.63) and precipitation (r = −0.66) had a significant influence on aerosol accumulation and diffusion.
