But for complex systems with multi-variable, it may not be sufficient to use single fading factor as a multiplier for the covariance matrices. In this paper, a new multiple fading factors Kalman filtering algorithm is presented. By calculating the unbiased estimate of the innovation sequence covariance using fenestration, the fading factor matrix is obtained. Adjusting the covariance matrix of prediction error Pk｜k-1 using fading factor matrix, the algorithm provides different rates of fading for different filter channels. The proposed algorithm is applied to strapdown inertial navigation system （SINS） initial alignment, and simulation and experimental results demonstrate that, the alignment accuracy can be upgraded dramatically when the actual system noise characteristics are different from the pre-set values. The new algorithm is less sensitive to uncertainty noise and has better estimation effect of the parameters. Therefore, it is of significant value in practical applications.展开更多

One of these identification methods is keystroke dynamics. The keystroke dynamics is a biometric measurement in terms of keystroke press duration and keystroke latency. However, several problems are arisen like the similarity between users and identification accuracy.

Next, we employ sequence alignment as a way of pattern discovery from the user’s typing behaviour. Experiments were conducted to evaluate accuracy of the proposed model. The results show high performance compared to standard classifiers in terms of accuracy and precision.展开更多

Consequently, sum rate of cognitive users(CUs) may fall short of the theoretical maximum through IA. To solve this problem,we propose an adaptive IA SS method for general distributed multi-user multi-antenna CRNs. The relationship between interference and noise power at each CRR is analyzed according to channel state information, interference requirement of PU, and power budget of CUs. Based on the analysis, scenarios of the CRN are classified into 4 cases, and corresponding IA SS algorithms are properly designed. Transmit power adjustment, CU access control and adjusted spatial projection are used to realize IA among CUs. Compared with existing methods, the proposed method is more general because of breaking the restriction that CUs can only transmit on the idle sub-channels. Moreover, in comparison to other five IA SS methods applicable in general CRN, the proposed method leads to improved achievable sum rate of CUs while guarantees transmission of PU.展开更多

First, some portion of D2D pairs that are the farthest away from the base station( BS) is selected to perform joint zero-forcing beamforming together with the cellular user equipments( UEs) and is admitted to the cellular network. The interference of the BS transmitting signal to the cellular UEs and the portion of D2D pair is eliminated completely at the same time. Secondly,based on the idea of interference alignment,the definition of channel parallelism is given. The channel parallelism of the remaining D2D pairs which are not involved in joint zero-forcing beamforming is computed by using the channel state information from the BS to the D2D devices. The higher the channel parallelism,the less interference the D2D pair suffers from the BS. Finally,in a descending order of channel parallelism,the remaining D2D pairs are reviewed in succession to determine admission to the cellular network. The algorithm stops when the admission of a D2D pair decreases the system sum rate. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the interference of the BS transmitting signal for D2D pairs and significantly improve system capacity. Furthermore, D2D communication is more applicable to short-range links.展开更多

文摘Presetting tensile twins(TTs)can enhance the mechanical properties of magnesium(Mg)alloys.Two as-received(AR)sheets,as-received state-A(AR-A)with fiber texture and nonuniform grains and as-received state-B with basal texture and uniform equiaxial grains are selected to induce TTs via a novel method called corrugated wide limit alignment(CWLA),and the corresponding CWLA-processed sheets are denoted as CWLA-processed state-A(C-A)and CWLA-processed state-B(C-B).The results demonstrate that a larger initial average grain size correlates with a higher fraction of TTs induced in Mg sheets,thereby refining the grains and forming a new rolling direction(RD)tilted texture during CWLA.The ultimate tensile strength increases by 32%from AR-A to C-A,primarily due to refinement strengthening and twinning-induced strain hardening.The recrystallization mechanism of C-A is dominated by twinning-induced dynamic recrystallization(DRX),where DRX grains prefer to inherit the orientation of TTs,resulting in an enhanced RD-tilted texture and the formation of multi-modal texture.The recrystallization mechanism of C-B is mainly discontinuous DRX and continuous DRX,and the DRX grains prefer to inherit the orientation of matrix grains,ultimately forming a basal texture.In summary,the tensile mechanical behavior of pre-twinned Mg sheets significantly depends on the grain size and texture of the AR sheets,so they present similar changing trends during tensile deformation.

文摘Knee osteoarthritis(OA) is a progressive joint disease hallmarked by cartilage and bone breakdown and associated with changes to all of the tissues in the joint,ultimately causing pain,stiffness,deformity and disability in many people.Radiographs are commonly used for the clinical assessment of knee OA incidence and progression,and to assess for risk factors.One risk factor for the incidence and progression of knee OA is malalignment of the lower extremities(LE).The hipknee-ankle(HKA) angle,assessed from a full-length LE radiograph,is ideally used to assess LE alignment.Careful attention to LE positioning is necessary to obtain the most accurate measurement of the HKA angle.Since full-length LE radiographs are not always available,the femoral shaft-tibial shaft(FS-TS) angle may be calculated from a knee radiograph instead.However,the FS-TS angle is more variable than the HKA angle and it should be used with caution.Knee radiographs are used to assess the severity of knee OA and its progression.There are three types of ordinal grading scales for knee OA:global,composite and individual feature scales.Each grade on a global scale describes one or more features of knee OA.The entire description must be met for a specific grade to be assigned.The KellgrenLawrence scale is the most commonly-used global scale.Composite scales grade several features of knee OA individually and sum the grades to create a total score.One example is the compartmental grading scale for knee OA.Composite scales can respond to change in a variety of presentations of knee OA.Individual feature scales assess one or more OA features individually and do not calculate a total score.They are most often used to monitor change in one OA feature,commonly joint space narrowing.The most commonly-used individual feature scale is the OA Research Society International atlas.Each type of scale has its advantages;however,composite scales may offer greater content validity.Responsiveness to change is unknown for most scales and deserves further evaluation.

文摘Interference alignment(IA) is suitable for cognitive radio networks(CRNs).However, in IA spectrum sharing(SS) process of general underlay CRNs, transmit power of cognitive radio transmitters usually should be reduced to satisfy interference constraint of primary user(PU), which may lead to low signalto-noise-ratio at cognitive radio receivers(CRRs). Consequently, sum rate of cognitive users(CUs) may fall short of the theoretical maximum through IA. To solve this problem,we propose an adaptive IA SS method for general distributed multi-user multi-antenna CRNs. The relationship between interference and noise power at each CRR is analyzed according to channel state information, interference requirement of PU, and power budget of CUs. Based on the analysis, scenarios of the CRN are classified into 4 cases, and corresponding IA SS algorithms are properly designed. Transmit power adjustment, CU access control and adjusted spatial projection are used to realize IA among CUs. Compared with existing methods, the proposed method is more general because of breaking the restriction that CUs can only transmit on the idle sub-channels. Moreover, in comparison to other five IA SS methods applicable in general CRN, the proposed method leads to improved achievable sum rate of CUs while guarantees transmission of PU.

文摘An admission control algorithm based on beamforming and interference alignment for device-to-device( D2D) communication underlaying cellular networks is proposed. First, some portion of D2D pairs that are the farthest away from the base station( BS) is selected to perform joint zero-forcing beamforming together with the cellular user equipments( UEs) and is admitted to the cellular network. The interference of the BS transmitting signal to the cellular UEs and the portion of D2D pair is eliminated completely at the same time. Secondly,based on the idea of interference alignment,the definition of channel parallelism is given. The channel parallelism of the remaining D2D pairs which are not involved in joint zero-forcing beamforming is computed by using the channel state information from the BS to the D2D devices. The higher the channel parallelism,the less interference the D2D pair suffers from the BS. Finally,in a descending order of channel parallelism,the remaining D2D pairs are reviewed in succession to determine admission to the cellular network. The algorithm stops when the admission of a D2D pair decreases the system sum rate. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the interference of the BS transmitting signal for D2D pairs and significantly improve system capacity. Furthermore, D2D communication is more applicable to short-range links.
文摘In this study, a novel 4-（4-octyloxybenzoyloxy）biphenyl-3′,5′-diaminobenzoate and polyimides based on it were synthesized. The polyimide with mesogenic unit side chain exhibited excellent vertical alignment for nematic liquid crystal （LC）. The pretilt angles of LCs above 89° were kept after the rubbing process with 220 mm rubbing strength. The polyimide films as the alignment layer were baked at 120℃ for 12 h, the vertical alignment of LCs was still uniform and stable. Meanwhile, the UV-vis spectra of the noyel polyimide films showed the high transparency in a visible wave length.

文摘A method for dynamic alignment calculation of a large turbogenerator shafting is proposed. The method can analyze bearing load and bearing load sensitivity. Shafting alignment is made up of two parts:static alignment and dynamic alignment. Static alignment forms the basis of dynamic alignment, its mathematical model is deduced by transfer matrix method, the shafting static characteristic parameters under specific alignment installation requirements were obtained afterwards. Based on superposition method, bearing sensitivity analysis is performed to find the impact of slight bearing elevation change of the static alignment result. Above static alignment, dynamic shafting alignment considers the internal geometry of bearing under rotating state, static Reynolds equation is solved by the finite difference method and the relative position relationship of the center of journal and bearing are obtained. For static characteristic parameters calculated by static alignment and bearing sensitivity analysis, the calculation accuracy is verified by finite element software. The alignment model and codes in this paper can be a tool for the installation and safety analysis of large-scale shafting with three-point or four-point supports.
