This spread will make the parameters estimation accuracy degrade. The goal of this paper is to analytically assess this degradation when Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) and Doppler shift exist jointly. Then the finite-sample Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) is derived and close-form asymptotical expression is given for large-sample CRLB. These expressions give insights into the performance room for frequency estimation. Also the variance of Doppler shift estimator is simulated to illustrate the theoretical results.展开更多

For low-rate sampling of echo signals, several kinds of compressive sampling(CS) pulse-Doppler(CSPD) radar are developed with different analog-to-information conversion(AIC) systems. However, a unified metric is absent to evaluate their parameter estimation performance. Towards this end, this paper derives the deterministic Cramer-Rao bound(CRB)for the joint delay-Doppler estimation of CSPD radar to quantitatively analyze the estimate performance. Theoretical results reveal that the CRBs of both time-delays and Doppler shifts are inversely proportional to the received target signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), the number of transmitted pulses and the sampling rate of AIC systems. The main difference is that the CRB of Doppler shifts also lies on the coherent processing interval. Numerical experiments validate these theoretical results. They also show that the structure of the AIC systems has weak influence on the CRBs, which implies that the AIC structures can be flexibly selected for the implementation of CSPD radar.展开更多

However, very little is known about the design method for the tiered GRS wall in practice. This study is aimed at proposing an upper-bound stability analysis method of a tiered GRS wall. The proposed method was firstly validated by the existing results from the centrifuge test and the numerical method, and then a parametric study was performed to investigate the effects of the cohesionless backfill friction angle φ1 and the wall geometric parameters including the offset distance, the total wall height, the batter angle δ, the number of tiers n, and wall height ratio of adjacent tiers on the dimensionless equivalent earth pressure coefficient KT. The analysis results demonstrated that as the φ1 increases, the shear strength of backfill is enhanced and thus the KT or the total reinforcement tensile force decreases, and the KT decreases with the increase of the offset distance at the initial stage and then becomes stable when it reaches a certain critical value. For a fixed offset distance, the KT or the total reinforcement tensile force decreases with the increase of the δ. For the two-tiered GRS walls having the offset distance less than the critical value, the wall with the smaller wall height ratio has a larger KT. Further, the variation of the location of the critical failure surfaces of tiered GRS walls was presented in this study with the variation of the φ1 and the wall geometry.展开更多

Among the DTC architecture, model-based thrust estimation method has less arithmetic consumption and better real-time performance. In this paper,a direct thrust controller design approach for gas turbine engine based on parameter dependent model is proposed. In order to ensure the stability of DTC control system based on parameter dependent model, there are usually conservatism detects. For the purpose of reducing the conservatism in the solution process of filter and controller, an Equilibrium Manifold Expansion(EME) model with bounded parameter variation of engine is established. The design conditions of Kalman filter for discrete-time EME system are introduced, and the proposed conditions have a certain suppression effect on the input noise of the system with bounded parameter variation.The engine thrust estimator stability and H∞filtering problems are solved by the polytopic quadratic Lyapunov function based on the Linear Matrix Inequalities(LMIs). To meet the performance requirements of thrust control, the Grey Wolf Optimization(GWO) algorithm is applied to optimize the PID control parameters. The proposed method is verified on a Hardware-in-Loop(HIL) platform. The simulation results demonstrate that the DTC framework can ensure the stability of engine closed-loop system in large range deviation tests. The filter and controller solution method considering the parameter variation boundary can obtain a solution that makes the system have better performance parameters. Moreover, the proposed filter has better thrust estimation performance than the traditional Kalman filter under the condition of sensor noise. Compared with Augmented Linear Quadratic Regulator(ALQR) controller, the PID controller optimized by GWO has a faster response in simulation.展开更多

However, for newly developing or developed mobile communication networks(MCN), only limited delay data can be obtained. In such a network, the delay is with epistemic uncertainty, which makes the traditional routing scheme based on deterministic theory or probability theory not applicable. Motivated by this problem, the MCN with epistemic uncertainty is first summarized as a dynamic uncertain network based on uncertainty theory, which is widely applied to model epistemic uncertainties. Then by modeling the uncertain end-toend delay, a new delay bounded routing scheme is proposed to find the path with the maximum belief degree that satisfies the delay threshold for the dynamic uncertain network. Finally, a lowEarth-orbit satellite communication network(LEO-SCN) is used as a case to verify the effectiveness of our routing scheme. It is first modeled as a dynamic uncertain network, and then the delay bounded paths with the maximum belief degree are computed and compared under different delay thresholds.展开更多

We theoretically analyze BICs in a dissipative cavity magnonic system and derive the critical condition for BICs bifurcation. Based on the theoretical results, we experimentally tune the dissipative photon–magnon coupling strength and demonstrate precise control over the detuning and number of BICs. When the dissipative coupling strength reaches a critical value, we observe the bifurcation of BICs, which is consistent with the theoretical prediction. Our systematic investigation of the evolution of BICs concerning the dissipative coupling strength and the discovery of the BIC bifurcation may enhance the sensitivity of BICs to external perturbations, potentially enabling applications in ultrasensitive detection.展开更多

文摘Time-delay and Doppler shift estimation is a basic task for pulse-Doppler radar processing. For low-rate sampling of echo signals, several kinds of compressive sampling(CS) pulse-Doppler(CSPD) radar are developed with different analog-to-information conversion(AIC) systems. However, a unified metric is absent to evaluate their parameter estimation performance. Towards this end, this paper derives the deterministic Cramer-Rao bound(CRB)for the joint delay-Doppler estimation of CSPD radar to quantitatively analyze the estimate performance.

For a fixed offset distance, the KT or the total reinforcement tensile force decreases with the increase of the δ. For the two-tiered GRS walls having the offset distance less than the critical value, the wall with the smaller wall height ratio has a larger KT. Further, the variation of the location of the critical failure surfaces of tiered GRS walls was presented in this study with the variation of the φ1 and the wall geometry.

In such a network, the delay is with epistemic uncertainty, which makes the traditional routing scheme based on deterministic theory or probability theory not applicable. Motivated by this problem, the MCN with epistemic uncertainty is first summarized as a dynamic uncertain network based on uncertainty theory, which is widely applied to model epistemic uncertainties. Then by modeling the uncertain end-toend delay, a new delay bounded routing scheme is proposed to find the path with the maximum belief degree that satisfies the delay threshold for the dynamic uncertain network. Finally, a lowEarth-orbit satellite communication network(LEO-SCN) is used as a case to verify the effectiveness of our routing scheme. It is first modeled as a dynamic uncertain network, and then the delay bounded paths with the maximum belief degree are computed and compared under different delay thresholds.

文摘We report the bifurcation of bound states in the continuum(BICs) in a dissipative cavity magnonic system, where a BIC splits into a pair of BICs. We theoretically analyze BICs in a dissipative cavity magnonic system and derive the critical condition for BICs bifurcation. Based on the theoretical results, we experimentally tune the dissipative photon–magnon coupling strength and demonstrate precise control over the detuning and number of BICs. When the dissipative coupling strength reaches a critical value, we observe the bifurcation of BICs, which is consistent with the theoretical prediction. Our systematic investigation of the evolution of BICs concerning the dissipative coupling strength and the discovery of the BIC bifurcation may enhance the sensitivity of BICs to external perturbations, potentially enabling applications in ultrasensitive detection.

文摘Two types of bound states in continuum(BICs),symmetry-protected and Brillouin zone folding driven,are identified in hollow Si nanorod arrays.By modulating the direction and distance of the air holes from the center of the nanorods,it is possible to achieve either a single quasi-BIC or three quasi-BICs.The transmission spectra exhibit ultra-narrow lines,and the quasi-BICs demonstrate ultra-high Q factors.Additionally,efficient third-harmonic generation occurs at low pump intensities.The results indicate that the proposed nanostructures of two types of BICs with a flexible modulation hold great potential applications for nonlinear photonic devices.

文摘A theory based on the superposition principle is developed to uncover the basic physics of wave behavior in a finite grating of N unit cells.The theory reveals that bound states in the continuum(BICs)of infinite quality factor(Q-factor)can be supported by such a grating when perfect reflection is introduced at its boundaries.If geometrical perturbations are introduced into the structure,the dark BICs transform into bright quasi-BICs with finite Q-factor,maintaining spectral characteristics nearly identical to those of quasi-BICs supported by infinite gratings.When the boundaries are replaced with high-reflectivity metallic mirrors,the Q-factor of the resonant mode is reduced to be finite;however,it can be much larger than that in the corresponding nanostructure with open boundaries and can be tuned over a large range by varying the number of unit cells or boundary conditions.

文摘The observations of fully-charm tetraquark states in the LHCb,CMS,and ATLAS experiments suggested the existence of hadronic molecules of two-charmonium states,which may also imply bound states in the threecharmonium systems.In this work,we study the possible bound states in the triple-ηcand triple-J/ψsystems with J^(PC)=0^(-+)and 1^(--),respectively.In quantum chromodynamics sum rules,we calculate the two-point correlation functions and spectral functions up to the dimension-four gluon condensate.We use the iterative dispersion relation approach to deal with the five-loop banana integrals,which significantly improves computational efficiency.Our results show that the masses of triple-ηcand triple-J/ψstates lie below the corresponding mass thresholds,supporting the existence of such three-body bound states.
