It was reported that the triton burnup ratio, defined as total DT neutron yield divided by total DD neutron yield, increases significantly in inward shifted configurations. To understand the magnetic configuration dependence of the triton burnup ratio, the first orbit loss fraction of 1 MeV tritons is evaluated by means of the Lorentz orbit code for various magnetic configurations. The first orbit loss of 1 MeV tritons is seen at t of less than 10-5 s and loss points of the triton are concentrated on the side of the helical coil case where the magnetic field is relatively weak. The significant decrease of the first orbit loss fraction by 15% is obtained with the inward shift of the magnetic axis position from 3.90 to 3.55 m. It is found that the decrease of first orbit loss is due to the reduction of the first orbit loss of transition and helically trapped tritons.展开更多

文摘The syndrome a posteriori probability of the log-likelihood ratio of intercepted codewords is used to develop an algorithm that recognizes the polar code length and generator matrix of the underlying polar code.Based on the encoding structure,three theorems are proved,two related to the relationship between the length and rate of the polar code,and one related to the relationship between frozen-bit positions,information-bit positions,and codewords.With these three theorems,polar codes can be quickly reconstruced.In addition,to detect the dual vectors of codewords,the statistical characteristics of the log-likelihood ratio are analyzed,and then the information-and frozen-bit positions are distinguished based on the minimumerror decision criterion.The bit rate is obtained.The correctness of the theorems and effectiveness of the proposed algorithm are validated through simulations.The proposed algorithm exhibits robustness to noise and a reasonable computational complexity.
