This work is aimed at developing a robust and standard-compliant error resilient coding scheme for H.264and uses techniques of mode decision, data hiding, and error concealment to reduce the damage from error propagation. This paper proposes a system with two error resilience techniques that can improve the robustness of H.264 in noisy channels. The first technique is Nearest Neighbor motion compensated Error Concealment (NNEC) that chooses the nearest neighbors in the reference frames for error concealment. The second technique is Distortion Estimated Mode Decision (DEMD) that selects an optimal mode based on stochastically distorted frames. Observed simulation results showed that the rate-distortion performances of the proposed algorithms are better than those of the compared algorithms.展开更多

We modeled the Zeta converter under continuous conduction mode operation. We derived a switching control law that brings the output voltage to the desired level. Due to infinite switching occurring at the desired level, we enhanced the switching control law by allowing a sizeable output voltage ripple. We derived mathematical models that allow one to choose the desired switching frequency. In practice, the existence of the non-ideal properties of the Zeta converter results in steady-state output voltage error. By analyzing the power loss in the zeta converter, we proposed an improved switching control law that eliminates the steady-state output voltage error. The effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated with simulation results.展开更多

Upper bounds of average achievable rate for different CoMP transmission modes, such as coordinated beamforming(CB) and joint processing(JP), are derived by random matrix theory and asymptotic mathematical approximation. According to these upper bounds, the proposed scheme switches CoMP transmission mode between CB and JP adaptively to enhance the average achievable rate. Simulation results show that these upper bounds agree well with the average achievable rates for both JP and CB, and the proposed scheme outperforms traditional single mode CoMP transmission when PSE exist.展开更多

The characteristics and origins of CME are still not clear, due to uneven distribution of global GPS networks and the lack of reliable data of the position time series. In this work, data from 241 continuous GPS stations were reprocessed in a consistent way and the results were compared with those generated at Jet Propulsion Laboratory （JPL）. Improvements of residual positions were obtained for many low-quality stations, especially those located in Asia and Australia.展开更多

Considering symmetrical untransposed three-phase lines, an actual symmetrical three-phase line on untransposed conditions is associated with Clarke’s matrix for error and frequency scan analyses in this paper. Error analyses are calculated for the eigenvalue diagonal elements obtained from Clarke’s matrix. The eigenvalue off-diagonal elements from the Clarke’s matrix application are compared to the correspondent exact eigenvalues. Based on the characteristic impedance and propagation function values, the frequency scan analyses show that there are great differences between the Clarke’s matrix results and the exact ones, considering frequency values from 10 kHz to 1 MHz. A correction procedure is applied obtaining two new transformation matrices. These matrices lead to good approximated results when compared to the exact ones. With the correction procedure applied to Clarke’s matrix, the relative values of the eigenvalue matrix off-diagonal element obtained from Clarke’s matrix are decreased while the frequency scan results are improved. The steps of correction procedure application are detailed, investigating the influence of each step on the obtained two new phase-mode transformation matrices.展开更多

Channel-aware mode uses forward error correction by transmitting re-encoded information redundantly for use when the original information is lost or discarded due to late arrival to the receiver. The primary frame bit rate is reduced for the redundant accommodation. A modified quantization scheme is proposed for core encoding regarding the quality degradation. Partial redundant coding is a simplification of that in the existing 13.2 kbit/s channel-aware mode due to the bit constraint. The objective evaluation results of PESQ show that the additional channel-aware modes achieve similar performance in improving the error robustness against missing packets as that of the existing 13.2 kbit/s mode. Multiple bit-rate modes can be dynamically selected in the communication system for more voice services in different bandwidths. On the other hand, optimal allocation based on real-time feedback can adapt to the rapidly-changing network environment as well as possible.展开更多

In order to assess model credibility quantitatively and locate model error precisely, a new dynamic validation method based on extremum field mean mode decomposition（EMMD） and the Prony method is proposed in this paper. Firstly, complex dynamic responses from models and real systems are processed into stationary components by EMMD. These components always have definite physical meanings which can be the evidence about rough model error location. Secondly, the Prony method is applied to identify the features of each EMMD component. Amplitude similarity, frequency similarity, damping similarity and phase similarity are defined to describe the similarity of dynamic responses.Then quantitative validation metrics are obtained based on the improved entropy weight and energy proportion. Precise model error location is realized based on the physical meanings of these features. The application of this method in aircraft controller design provides evidence about its feasibility and usability.展开更多

文摘This paper proposes a mode selection scheme to improve the spectral efficiency for coordinated multi-point(CoMP) transmission with phase synchronization errors(PSE). Upper bounds of average achievable rate for different CoMP transmission modes, such as coordinated beamforming(CB) and joint processing(JP), are derived by random matrix theory and asymptotic mathematical approximation. According to these upper bounds, the proposed scheme switches CoMP transmission mode between CB and JP adaptively to enhance the average achievable rate. Simulation results show that these upper bounds agree well with the average achievable rates for both JP and CB, and the proposed scheme outperforms traditional single mode CoMP transmission when PSE exist.
