摘要：This paper focuses on the design of the cross layer between the video application layer and the MIMO physical layer. MIMO physical layer research has promised an enormous increase in the capacity of wireless communication systems. Also MIMO wireless systems operate under fading conditions where the channel faces arbitrary fluctuations. Since the wireless channel changes over each coherence period, the capacity of the wireless channel, given the power constraints, changes. Hence to make efficient use of the available capacity one needs to adapt the video bit rate. However it is impossible to adapt at the application layer as changing the parameters of the video takes more time than the coherence period of the channel. In this paper we address this problem through a novel solution and also investigate its performance through a simulation study.

摘要：Height extraction for buildings is a fundamental step of 3D scene reconstruction in many virtual reality applications. In this paper, we propose an automatic method to extract the height of buildings in high resolution satellite imagery based on the length of shadow. Taking into account the limitation of traditional algorithms, we make use of the boundary information of a building to facilitate detecting and matching the shadow regions with higher accuracy. Then, we introduce a shadow-cast model to correct the shadow location in our system. The experimental result shows that when extracting the height of buildings from complex urban regions, our method has better accuracy.

摘要：Rendering of large-scale forest scenes is a challenging task, whose highly geometric complexity will put heavy burden on current graphics hardware. When navigating the scene, the overall visual result is generally considered as the core concern. A new method is proposed in this paper for large-scale forest rendering using clustering and merging strategies. Our method improves the rendering effect by clustering polygons according to the point information with relation to neighbours. A fast forest rendering system is developed accordingly. The relative techniques in the system can improve the visual quality on demand of different applications.
