Abstract IP geolocation determines geographical location by the IP address of Internet hosts.IP geolocation is widely used by target PS-100 advertising, online fraud detection, cyber-attacks attribution and so on.It has gained much more attentions in these years since more and more physical devices are connected to cyberspace.Most geolocation metho
We consider efficient communications over the multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) multiway distributed relay channel (MDRC) with full data exchange, where each user, equipped with multiple antennas and broadcasts messages to all the other users via the help of a number of distributive relays.We propose a physical-layer network coding (copyright)-
