文摘Traditionally,a continuous-wave(CW)signal is used to simulate RF circuits during the design procedure,while the fabricated circuits are measured by modulated signals in the test phase,because modulated signals are used in reality.It is almost impossible to use a CW signal to predict system performances,such as error vector magnitude(EVM),bit error rate(BER),etc.,of a transceiver front-end when dealing with complex modulated signals.This paper develops an integrated system evaluation engine(ISEE)to evaluate the system performances of a transceiver front-end or its sub-circuits.This crossdomain simulation platform is based on Matlab,advanced design system(ADS),and Cadence simulators to link the baseband signals and transceiver frond-end.An orthogonal frequency division multiplex(OFDM)modem is implemented in Matlab for evaluating the system performances.The modulated baseband signal from Matlab is dynamically fed into ADS,which includes transceiver front-end for co-simulation.The sub-block circuits of the transceiver front-end can be implemented using ADS and Cadence simulators.After system-level circuit simulation in ADS,the output signal is dynamically delivered to Matlab for demodulation.To simplify the use of the co-simulation platform,a graphical user interface(GUI)is constructed using Matlab.The parameters of the OFDM signals can be easily reconfigured on the GUI to simulate RF circuits with different modulation schemes.To demonstrate the effectiveness of the ISEE,a 3.5 GHz power amplifier is simulated and characterized using 20 MHz 16-and 64-QAM OFDM signals.

文摘Multi-label image classification is a challenging task due to the diverse sizes and complex backgrounds of objects in images.Obtaining class-specific precise representations at different scales is a key aspect of feature representation.However,existing methods often rely on the single-scale deep feature,neglecting shallow and deeper layer features,which poses challenges when predicting objects of varying scales within the same image.Although some studies have explored multi-scale features,they rarely address the flow of information between scales or efficiently obtain class-specific precise representations for features at different scales.To address these issues,we propose a two-stage,three-branch Transformer-based framework.The first stage incorporates multi-scale image feature extraction and hierarchical scale attention.This design enables the model to consider objects at various scales while enhancing the flow of information across different feature scales,improving the model’s generalization to diverse object scales.The second stage includes a global feature enhancement module and a region selection module.The global feature enhancement module strengthens interconnections between different image regions,mitigating the issue of incomplete represen-tations,while the region selection module models the cross-modal relationships between image features and labels.Together,these components enable the efficient acquisition of class-specific precise feature representations.Extensive experiments on public datasets,including COCO2014,VOC2007,and VOC2012,demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method.Our approach achieves consistent performance gains of 0.3%,0.4%,and 0.2%over state-of-the-art methods on the three datasets,respectively.These results validate the reliability and superiority of our approach for multi-label image classification.
