Analysis of the Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer on the Earth Observing System （AMSR-E） Aqua satellite observations reveals very strong and widespread RFI contam- inations on the C- and X-band data. Fortunately, the strong and moderate RFI signals can be easily identified using an index on observed brightness temperature spectrum. It is the weak RFI that is diffi- cult to be separated from the nature surface emission. In this study, a new algorithm is proposed for RFI detection and correction. The simulated brightness temperature is used as a background signal （B） and a departure of the observation from the background （O–B） is utilized for detection of RFI. It is found that the O–B departure can result from either a natural event （e.g., precipitation or flooding） or an RFI signal. A separation between the nature event and RFI is further realized based on the scattering index （SI）. A positive SI index and low brightness temperatures at high frequencies indicate precipitation. In the RFI correction, a relationship between AMSR-E measurements at 10.65 GHz and those at 18.7 or 6.925 GHz is first developed using the AMSR-E training data sets under RFI-free conditions. Contamination of AMSR-E measurements at 10.65 GHz is then predicted from the RFI-free measurements at 18.7 or 6.925 GHz using this relationship. It is shown that AMSR-E measurements with the RFI-correction algorithm have better agreement with simulations in a variety of surface conditions.展开更多

RFI signals should be detected and filtered before applying the microwave data to retrieval and data assimilation. It is difficult to detect RFI over land surfaces covered by snow because of the scattering effect of snow surface. The double principal component analysis （DPCA） method is adopted in this study, and its ability in identifying RFI signals in AMSR-E data over snow covered regions is investigated. Results show that the DPCA method can detect RFI signals effectively in spite of the impact of snow scattering, and the detected RFI signals persistent over time. Compared to other methods, such as PCA and normalized PCA, DPCA is more robust and suitable for operational application.展开更多

文摘Temporal interference(TI)is a form of stimulation that epitomizes an innovative and non-invasive approach for profound neuromodulation of the brain,a technique that has been validated in mice.Yet,the thin cranial bone structure of mice has a marginal influence on the effect of the TI technique and may not effectively showcase its effectiveness in larger animals.Based on this,we carried out TI stimulation experiments on rats.Following the TI intervention,analysis of electrophysiological data and immunofluorescence staining indicated the generation of a stimulation focus within the nucleus accumbens(depth,8.5 mm)in rats.Our findings affirm the viability of the TI methodology in the presence of thick cranial bones,furnishing efficacious parameters for profound stimulation with TI administered under such conditions.This experiment not only sheds light on the intervention effects of TI deep in the brain but also furnishes robust evidence in support of its prospective clinical utility.

文摘A new method based on the iterative adaptive algorithm(IAA)and blocking matrix preprocessing(BMP)is proposed to study the suppression of multi-mainlobe interference.The algorithm is applied to precisely estimate the spatial spectrum and the directions of arrival(DOA)of interferences to overcome the drawbacks associated with conventional adaptive beamforming(ABF)methods.The mainlobe interferences are identified by calculating the correlation coefficients between direction steering vectors(SVs)and rejected by the BMP pretreatment.Then,IAA is subsequently employed to reconstruct a sidelobe interference-plus-noise covariance matrix for the preferable ABF and residual interference suppression.Simulation results demonstrate the excellence of the proposed method over normal methods based on BMP and eigen-projection matrix perprocessing(EMP)under both uncorrelated and coherent circumstances.

文摘Conductive polymer foam(CPF)with excellent compressibility and variable resistance has promising applications in electromagnetic interference(EMI)shielding and other integrated functions for wearable electronics.However,its insufficient change amplitude of resistance with compressive strain generally leads to a degradation of shielding performance during deformation.Here,an innovative loading strategy of conductive materials on polymer foam is proposed to significantly increase the contact probability and contact area of conductive components under compression.Unique inter-skeleton conductive films are constructed by loading alginate-decorated magnetic liquid metal on the polymethacrylate films hanged between the foam skeleton(denoted as AMLM-PM foam).Traditional point contact between conductive skeletons under compression is upgraded to planar contact between conductive films.Therefore,the resistance change of AMLM-PM reaches four orders of magnitude under compression.Moreover,the inter-skeleton conductive films can improve the mechanical strength of foam,prevent the leakage of liquid metal and increase the scattering area of EM wave.AMLM-PM foam has strain-adaptive EMI shielding performance and shows compression-enhanced shielding effectiveness,solving the problem of traditional CPFs upon compression.The upgrade of resistance response also enables foam to achieve sensitive pressure sensing over a wide pressure range and compression-regulated Joule heating function.
文摘BACKGROUND Bioabsorbable interference screws are a widely used option for graft fixation in anterior cruciate ligament(ACL)reconstruction.Their ability to degrade over time and avoid secondary hardware removal makes them advantageous.However,complications such as breakage and intra-articular migration of screws can cause significant clinical issues,including joint pain,swelling,and cartilage damage.Early diagnosis and management are critical in such cases.CASE SUMMARY A 26-year-old male presented with knee pain and swelling one year after ACL reconstruction using a hamstring graft and bioabsorbable tibial interference screw.The patient had been engaged in rigorous physical activity as part of military training.Clinical examination revealed mild effusion without instability,and imaging showed screw breakage with intra-articular migration.Therapeutic arthroscopy confirmed intact graft tension,and broken screw fragments were removed successfully.The patient resumed normal activity two weeks after surgery.CONCLUSION This case highlights the potential complications associated with bioabsorbable screws,emphasizing the need for meticulous surgical technique,postoperative monitoring,and timely intervention.A comprehensive review of the literature illustrates the mechanisms,risk factors,and preventive strategies associated with screw-related complications.

文摘Interference significantly impacts the performance of the Global Navigation Satellite Systems(GNSS),highlighting the need for advanced interference localization technology to bolster anti-interference and defense capabilities.The Uniform Circular Array(UCA)enables concurrent estimation of the Direction of Arrival(DOA)in both azimuth and elevation.Given the paramount importance of stability and real-time performance in interference localization,this work proposes an innovative approach to reduce the complexity and increase the robustness of the DOA estimation.The proposed method reduces computational complexity by selecting a reduced number of array elements to reconstruct a non-uniform sparse array from a UCA.To ensure DOA estimation accuracy,minimizing the Cramér-Rao Bound(CRB)is the objective,and the Spatial Correlation Coefficient(SCC)is incorporated as a constraint to mitigate side-lobe.The optimization model is a quadratic fractional model,which is solved by Semi-Definite Relaxation(SDR).When the array has perturbations,the mathematical expressions for CRB and SCC are re-derived to enhance the robustness of the reconstructed array.Simulation and hardware experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed method in estimating interference DOA,showing high robustness and reductions in hardware and computational costs associated with DOA estimation.

文摘In wideband noncooperative interference cancellation,the reference signals obtained through auxiliary antennas are weighted to cancel with the interference signal.The correlation between the reference signal and the interference signal determines interference cancellation performance,while the auxiliary antenna array affects the correlation by influencing the amplitude and phase of the reference signals.This paper analyzes the effect of auxiliary antenna array on multiple performances of wideband noncooperative interference cancellation.Firstly,the array received signal model of wideband interference is established,and the weight vector coupled with the auxiliary antennas array manifold is solved by spectral analysis and eigen-subspace decomposition.Then,multiple performances which include cancellation resolution,grating null,wideband interference cancellation ratio(ICR),and convergence rate are quantitatively characterized with the auxiliary antenna array.It is obtained through analysis that the performances mutually restrict the auxiliary antenna array.Higher cancellation resolution requires larger array aperture,but when the number of auxiliary antennas is fixed,larger array aperture results in more grating nulls.When the auxiliary antennas are closer to the main antenna,the wideband ICR is improved,but the convergence rate is reduced.The conclusions are verified through simulation of one-dimensional uniform array and two-dimensional nonuniform array.The experiments of three arrays are compared,and the results conform well with simulation and support the theoretical analysis.
文摘With the advancement of electronic countermeasures,airborne synthetic aperture radar(SAR)systems are facing increasing challenges in maintaining effective performance in hostile environments.In particular,high-power interference can severely degrade SAR imaging and signal processing,often rendering target detection impossible.This highlights the urgent need for robust anti-interference solutions in both the signal processing and image processing domains.While current methods address interference across various domains,techniques such as waveform modification and spatial filtering typically increase the system costs and complexity.To overcome these limitations,we propose a novel approach that leverages the multi-domain characteristics of interference to efficiently suppress narrowband interference and repeater modulation interference.Specifically,narrowband interference is mitigated using notch filtering,a signal processing technique that effectively filters out unwanted frequencies,while repeater modulation interference is addressed through strong signal amplitude normalization,which enhances both the signal and image processing quality.These methods were validated through tests on real SAR data,demonstrating significant improvements in the imaging performance and system robustness.Our approach offers valuable insights for advancing anti-interference technologies in SAR systems and provides a cost-effective solution to enhance their resilience in complex electronic warfare environments.

文摘Over the last decade,the integra-tion of scanning tunneling mi-croscopy(STM)and electron spin resonance(ESR)spectroscopy has emerged as a powerful tool for measuring spin states of surface-adsorbed molecules.The radio-fre-quency voltage is a key physical quantity that influences STM-ESR spectra.However,the specific effect of radio-frequency voltage on the real-time electric current associated with STM-ESR sig-nal remains unclear.In this work,we employ the hierarchical equations of motion method to simulate the STM-ESR spectra of a single spin-1/2 surface-adsorbed molecule and track the temporal evolution of the electric current,thereby elucidating how the radio-frequency volt-age influences the features of STM-ESR spectra,the real-time electric current,and the char-acteristic frequencies conveyed by the electric current.These theoretical insights facilitate a deeper comprehension of experimental phenomena.

文摘The discharge and plasma characteristics of Ag magnetron sputtering discharge operated near the electron series resonance(ESR)oscillation,which was excited using the driving frequency of 27.12 MHz,was investigated.The imaginary part of impedance was found to undergo a transition from capacitive to inductive on varying radio-frequency(RF)power,and the conditions for the ESR excitation were satisfied.The current–voltage(I–V)characteristic of discharge showed that the lower discharge voltage with higher current was an important feature of RF magnetron sputtering operated near the ESR oscillation,which was caused by the small impedance Z originated from the mutual compensation between the sheath capacitive reactance and the plasma inductive reactance.The higher electron temperature,ion flux density and ion energy as well as the moderate electron density were obtained.The interaction of higher energy ions on substrate surface improved the crystallographic quality of Ag films.Therefore,the 27.12 MHz magnetron sputtering operated near the ESR oscillation has better deposition characteristics than that of commercial 13.56 MHz RF magnetron sputtering.

文摘In this paper,a novel Filter bank multicarrier/quadrature amplitude modulation(FBMC/QAM)scheme which separates the real and imaginary part of the subcarriers in a multipath time-varying fading channel is put forward and analyzed in detail.By applying the methods of mapping the time-domain symbols and reducing the correlation of frequency-domain symbols,the presented scheme can eliminate the intrinsic imaginary interference more thoroughly and greatly mitigate residual interference as well as receive a good peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR)mitigation effect.Theoretical analysis and simulation results indicate that compared with the existing schemes with the methods of pre-coding(FBMC/QAM-CC)and iterative interference cancellation(FBMC/QAM-IIC),our adopted scheme can not only obtain better performances on bit error rate(BER)and out-of-band(OOB)emission with no loss of transmission efficiency,but also achieve a good PAPR mitigation effect with a small increase in complexity.

文摘Wave-particle duality is one of the key features of quantum physics,characterized by the interference pattern.Meanwhile,Floquet spectroscopy is typically studied in the high-frequency region because the Floquet sidebands are very sharp,behaving like“particles”in frequency space,and no interference phenomena are observed.Here,we consider the larger quantum fluctuation region where the Floquet sidebands are broader,making interference between them possible.With the help of an optical lattice clock experimental platform and numerical simulations,such interference of Floquet modes in frequency space is clearly observed.Additionally,it exhibits many exotic phenomena,such as large Floquet sidebands between integer ones,sensitivity to the initial phase,and corresponding emergent symmetries.To analytically elucidate this,we propose the Floquet channel interference hypothesis,which surprisingly matches quantitatively well with both experimental and numerical results.Our research paves the way for developing a new type of interferometer that could be applicable to other Floquet systems.
