A frequency diverse array (FDA) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar employs a small frequency increment across transmit elements to produce an angle-range-dependent beampattern for target angle and range detection. The joint angle and range estimation problem is a trilinear model. The traditional trilinear alternating least square (TALS) algorithm involves high computational load due to excessive iterations. We propose a fast-convergence trilinear decomposition (FC-TD) algorithm to jointly estimate FDA-MIMO radar target angle and range. We first use a propagator method to obtain coarse angle and range estimates in the data domain. Next, the coarse estimates are used as initialized parameters instead of the traditional TALS algorithm random initialization to reduce iterations and accelerate convergence. Finally, fine angle and range estimates are derived and automatically paired. Compared to the traditional TALS algorithm, the proposed FC-TD algorithm has lower computational complexity with no estimation performance degradation. Moreover, Cramer-Rao bounds are presented and simulation results are provided to validate the proposed FC-TD algorithm effectiveness.

Recently, the number of hacking, that use buffer overflow vulnerabilities, are increasing. Although the buffer overflow Problem has been known for a long time, for the following reasons, it continuos to present a serious security threat. There are three defense method of buffer overflow attack. First, allow overwrite but do not allow unauthorized change of control flow. Second, do not allow overwriting at all. Third, allow change of control flow, but prevents execution of injected code. This paper is for allowing overwrites but do not allow unauthorized change of control flow which is the solution of extending compiler. The previous defense method has two defects. First, a program company with overhead because it do much thing before than applying for the method In execution of process. Second, each time function returns, it store return address in reserved memory created by compiler. This cause waste of memory too much. The new proposed method is to extend compiler, by processing after compiling and linking time. To complement these defects, we can reduce things to do in execution time. By processing additional steps after compile/linking time and before execution time. We can reduce overhead.
