The proposed laser system utilizes a cascaded and parallel configuration of three Lyot filters, facilitated by a polarization beam splitter(PBS) for branch switching. The transmission properties of the filter are analyzed through theoretical modeling and experimental validation using the transmission matrix method. The experimental results are found to be consistent with the theoretical predictions, demonstrating the effectiveness of the proposed design. By adjusting the polarization controllers(PCs), the proposed laser can switch between wavelength spacings of 0.46 nm, 0.27 nm, and 0.76 nm, with a maximum optical signal-to-noise ratio(OSNR) of 38 d B. However, the stability of the laser with a 0.27 nm spacing is not high due to wavelength competition. Power fluctuation for 0.46 nm and 0.76 nm intervals is less than 0.93 d B and 0.78 d B in 1 h, with wavelength fluctuation less than 0.068 nm and 0.19 nm, respectively. This EDFL has the advantages of simple structure, great flexibility, and switchability, which can be applied to fiber optic sensing, wavelength division multiplexing(WDM) networks, and other fields that require a very flexible light source.展开更多

文摘Pure magnesia filter and periclase-spinel filter were prepared using porous MgO powder and Al2O3 micro-powder as raw materials.The filtration efficiency and purification mechanism of the two sets of filters on molten steel were investigated through steel casting tests.The results show that on the basis of surviving the thermal shock of molten steel,both filters can significantly reduce the number of non-metallic inclusions and total oxygen content of steel,thereby improving the cleanliness of the molten steel.After the thermal shock of molten steel,cracks were found in the microstructure of pure magnesia filter.Via the diffusion of non-metallic inclusions from steel into MgO grains of the filter to form solid solution,the inclusions were adsorbed to the internal and external surfaces of the pure magnesia filter.The number of inclusions was reduced by 62.5%,and the total oxygen content decreased from 0.892 to 0.265 wt.%after filtration,achieving a filtration efficiency of 70.3%.Compared with the pure magnesia filter,no cracks were found in the microstructure of the periclase-spinel filter.The mass transfer rate was accelerated due to the diffusion of inclusions from steel into MgO and MgAl2O4 grains of the filter,as well as the higher high-temperature liquid content and smaller pore structure of the filter.More non-metallic inclusions were able to enter the interior of the filter,which made the periclase-spinel filter more capable of adsorbing inclusions from steel and reducing total oxygen content.The periclase-spinel filter reduced the number of inclusions in steel by 84.4%and decreased the total oxygen content of the steel from 0.892 to 0.119 wt.%,with a filtration efficiency of 86.7%,demonstrating excellent comprehensive performance.

文摘In-loop filters have been comprehensively explored during the development of video coding standards due to their remarkable noise-reduction capabilities.In the early stage of video coding,in-loop filters,such as the deblocking filter,sample adaptive offset,and adaptive loop filter,were performed separately for each component.Recently,cross-component filters have been studied to improve chroma fidelity by exploiting correlations between the luma and chroma channels.This paper introduces the cross-component filters used in the state-ofthe-art video coding standards,including the cross-component adaptive loop filter and cross-component sample adaptive offset.Crosscomponent filters aim to reduce compression artifacts based on the correlation between different components and provide more accurate pixel reconstruction values.We present their origin,development,and status in the current video coding standards.Finally,we conduct discussions on the further evolution of cross-component filters.

文摘In this paper,the newly-derived maximum correntropy Kalman filter(MCKF)is re-derived from the M-estimation perspective,where the MCKF can be viewed as a special case of the M-estimations and the Gaussian kernel function is a special case of many robust cost functions.Based on the derivation process,a unified form for the robust Gaussian filters(RGF)based on M-estimation is proposed to suppress the outliers and non-Gaussian noise in the measurement.The RGF provides a unified form for one Gaussian filter with different cost functions and a unified form for one robust filter with different approximating methods for the involved Gaussian integrals.Simulation results show that RGF with different weighting functions and different Gaussian integral approximation methods has robust antijamming performance.
文摘In digital signal processing,image enhancement or image denoising are challenging task to preserve pixel quality.There are several approaches from conventional to deep learning that are used to resolve such issues.But they still face challenges in terms of computational requirements,overfitting and generalization issues,etc.To resolve such issues,optimization algorithms provide greater control and transparency in designing digital filters for image enhancement and denoising.Therefore,this paper presented a novel denoising approach for medical applications using an Optimized Learning⁃based Multi⁃level discrete Wavelet Cascaded Convolutional Neural Network(OLMWCNN).In this approach,the optimal filter parameters are identified to preserve the image quality after denoising.The performance and efficiency of the OLMWCNN filter are evaluated,demonstrating significant progress in denoising medical images while overcoming the limitations of conventional methods.

文摘The traditional forward design process of metasurface optical filters is computationally costly and time-consuming;therefore,inverse design based on deep learning(DL)can help accelerate the process.We propose the globaland local-spectrum-aware transformer(GLSaT),a DL model that concerns the intrinsic correlations within the spectral sequences,compensating the drawbacks of current networks that only focus on structure-to-spectrum mappings.With both interand intra-fragment attention mechanisms implemented,the GLSaT achieves 32.9%higher accuracy than fully connected networks in our reflection tests.It also demonstrates an inherent balance between predictive precision and computational efficiency,outperforming alternative architectures.Furthermore,our extensive experimental validations demonstrate its generalization capability across diverse metasurface functionalities.The GLSaT architecture shows great potential for enhancing the efficiency of data-driven metasurface inverse design in the future.

文摘Imaging detector arrays have been widely used in terahertz(THz)astronomical observations,where optical filters play an important role.In this work,a 5-THz metal-mesh bandpass filter(MMBF)using cross-slot-shaped resonators is developed and fabricated on Mylar film through photolithography.Extensive simulations,accounting for factors such as Mylar film loss,surface conductivity,corner errors,and surface roughness,were conducted to assess their impact on the filter’s performance.The measured characteristics,including a center frequency of 5.06 THz,a transmittance of 62%,and a 3-dB fractional bandwidth(FBW)is 38%,obtained via Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR),closely match the simulation results.This scalable metal-mesh filter shows promise for future THz astronomical applications.

文摘MnCeO_(x)/P84 catalytic filters with spherical,flower-like,cubic and rod-like catalytic interfaces were synthesized respectively,and their catalytic activities in the NH_(3)-SCR reaction were investigated.The MnCeO_(x)/P84 catalytic filter with spherical catalytic interfaces(recorded as S-MnCeO_(x)/P84)exhibits the best catalytic denitration performance.The NO_(x)removal efficiency of S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 reaches the highest value of 98.6%at 160℃when the catalyst loading is 100 g/m^(2).At the same time,S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 exhibits good SO_(2)resistance and stability,achieving a NO_(x)removal rate of 83%at 190℃with 30 ppm SO_(2).The characterization results illustrate that the MnCeO_x active component in S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 is present in weak crystalline states,tightly wrapped around the surface of the filter fiber,and uniformly dispersed,and the mesopore is the main pore structure of the S-MnCeO_(x)/P84,which can provide a channel for the catalytic reaction to proceed.At the same time,transmission electron microscopy(TEM)characterization shows that y-MnO_(2)is the main form of MnO_(2)in the S-MnCeO_(x)/P84.Further analysis of H_(2)temperature programmed reduction(H_(2)-TPR).NH_(3)temperature programmed desorption(NH_(3)-TPD)and in-situ diffuse reflectance infrared spectra(DRIFTS)show that S-MnCeO_(x)/P84 has good redox ability at 100-200℃and has abundant Lewis acid sites and Bronsteds acid sites,which provides an important guarantee for its superior low-temperature NH_(3)-SCR denitration performance.

文摘Jamming suppression is traditionally achieved through the use of spatial filters based on array signal processing theory.In order to achieve better jamming suppression performance,many studies have applied blind source separation(BSS)to jamming suppression.BSS can achieve the separation and extraction of the individual source signals from the mixed signal received by the array.This paper proposes a perspective to recognize BSS as spatial band-pass filters(SBPFs)for jamming suppression applications.The theoretical derivation indicates that the processing of mixed signals by BSS can be perceived as the application of a set of SBPFs that gate the source signals at various angles.Simulations are performed using radar jamming suppression as an example.The simulation results suggest that BSS and SBPFs produce approximately the same effects.Simulation results are consistent with theoretical derivation results.
