In recent years, the US has been active in the field of global digital infrastructure, showing a trend of deep coupling and mutual embedding with strategic communication. The US has built a strategic communication system for digital infrastructure. This system is designed to set the international agenda, collect information and intelligence, and deter its competitors.

In this paper, we propose a novel logging method for detection of high-resistance formations in OBM using highfrequency electrodes. The method addresses the issue of shallow depth of investigation(DOI) in existing electrical logging instruments, while simultaneously ensuring the vertical resolution. Based on the principle of current continuity, the total impedance of the loop is obtained by equating the measurement loop to the series form of a capacitively coupled circuit. and its validity is verified in a homogeneous formation model and a radial two-layer formation model with a mud standoff. Then, the instrument operating frequency and electrode system parameters were preferentially determined by numerical simulation, and the effect of mud gap on impedance measurement was investigated. Subsequently, the DOI of the instrument was investigated utilizing the pseudo-geometric factor defined by the real part of impedance. It was determined that the detection depth of the instrument is 8.74 cm, while the effective vertical resolution was not less than 2 cm. Finally, a focused high-frequency electrode-type instrument was designed by introducing a pair of focused electrodes, which effectively enhanced the DOI of the instrument and was successfully deployed in the Oklahoma formation model. The simulation results demonstrate that the novel method can achieve a detection depth of 17.40 cm in highly-resistive formations drilling with OBM, which is approximately twice the depth of detection of the existing oil-based mud microimager instruments. Furthermore, its effective vertical resolution remains at or above 2 cm,which is comparable to the resolution of the existing OBM electrical logging instrument.展开更多

文摘Objective:To analyze the significance of high-frequency ultrasound in differentiating benign and malignant breast micronodules.Methods:Eighty-five patients with breast micronodules admitted for diagnosis between October 2022 and October 2024 were selected for high-frequency ultrasound diagnosis.The diagnostic efficacy of high-frequency ultrasound was evaluated by comparing it with the results of surgical pathology.Results:High-frequency ultrasound detected 50 benign nodules,primarily breast fibroadenomas,and 35 malignant nodules,mainly breast ductal carcinoma in situ.Based on surgical pathology results,the diagnostic accuracy of high-frequency ultrasound was 96.47%,specificity was 97.96%,and sensitivity was 94.44%.In high-frequency ultrasound diagnosis,the proportion of grade III and IV blood flow in malignant nodules was higher than that in benign nodules,while the proportion of regular shape and clear margins was lower.The proportion of microcalcifications and posterior echo attenuation was higher in malignant nodules,and the resistance index(RI)and peak blood flow velocity were lower than those in benign nodules(P<0.05).Conclusion:High-frequency ultrasound can effectively differentiate benign and malignant breast micronodules,determine specific nodule types,and exhibits high diagnostic accuracy and sensitivity.Additionally,benign and malignant nodules can be differentiated based on the grading of blood flow signals,sonographic features,and blood flow velocity,providing reasonable guidance for subsequent treatment plans.
文摘China has a long history of coal mining,among which open-pit coal mines have a large number of small coal mine goafs underground.The distribution,shape,structure and other characteristics of goafs are isolated and discontinuous,and there is no definite geological law to follow,which seriously threatens the safety of coal mine production and personnel life.Conventional ground geophysical methods have low accuracy in detecting goaf areas affected by mechanical interference from open-pit mines,especially for waterless goaf areas,which cannot be detected by existing methods.This article proposes the use of high-frequency electromagnetic waves for goaf detection.The feasibility of using drilling radar to detect goaf was theoretically analyzed,and a goaf detection model was established.The response characteristics of different fillers in the goaf under different frequencies of high-frequency electromagnetic waves were simulated and analyzed.In a certain open-pit mine in Inner Mongolia,100MHz high-frequency electromagnetic waves were used to detect the goaf through directional drilling on the ground.After detection,excavation verification was carried out,and the location of one goaf detected was verified.The results of engineering practice show that the application of high-frequency electromagnetic waves in goaf detection expands the detection radius of boreholes,has the advantages of high efficiency and accuracy,and has important theoretical and practical significance.

文摘Low earth orbit(LEO)satellite communication which can provide global wireless ser-vice plays a critical role in the future wireless communication networks.However,due to the high speed of satellite motion,numerous narrow beams,and complex satellite-terrestrial channels,the initial access between the LEO satellites and user terminals(UEs)becomes more complicated.To establish a stable link,a beam search is required between the satellite and the UE.However,tradi-tional beam search methods(e.g.,exhaustive search)have high time complexity which is not suit-able in high-speed scenarios.Therefore,in this paper,a sensing-aided hierarchical beam search method is proposed,which is performed in two stages.In the first stage,wide beam scanning is per-formed to find the optimal angular range.In the second stage,after determining the directions of narrow beams via sensing the direction of arrival(DOA)of satellite signals,the narrow beams gen-erated at estimated directions are used to sweep the satellite beams.This method can help fast beam alignment and obtain high beam search accuracy,which is verified by simulation results.Moreover,we analyze the gain of beam alignment from the two-stage beam search method.

文摘Single-shot ultrafast compressed imaging(UCI)is an effective tool for studying ultrafast dynamics in physics,chemistry,or material science because of its excellent high frame rate and large frame number.However,the random code(Rcode)used in traditional UCI will lead to low-frequency noise covering high-frequency information due to its uneven sampling interval,which is a great challenge in the fidelity of large-frame reconstruction.Here,a high-frequency enhanced compressed active photography(H-CAP)is proposed.By uniformizing the sampling interval of R-code,H-CAP capture the ultrafast process with a random uniform sampling mode.This sampling mode makes the high-frequency sampling energy dominant,which greatly suppresses the low-frequency noise blurring caused by R-code and achieves high-frequency information of image enhanced.The superior dynamic performance and large-frame reconstruction ability of H-CAP are verified by imaging optical self-focusing effect and static object,respectively.We applied H-CAP to the spatial-temporal characterization of double-pulse induced silicon surface ablation dynamics,which is performed within 220 frames in a single-shot of 300 ps.H-CAP provides a high-fidelity imaging method for observing ultrafast unrepeatable dynamic processes with large frames.

文摘Soft magnetic composites made from metallic magnetic particles with an easy magnetization plane(referred to as easy-plane metallic soft magnetic composites(SMC))are considered ideal materials for the next generation of power electronic devices.This advantage is attributed to their ability to maintain high permeability at elevated frequencies.Despite these advantages,a definitive mathematical model that connects the high-frequency magnetic properties(e.g.,effective permeability)of easy-plane metallic SMCs to the intrinsic properties of the particles is still lacking.In this work,a theoretical calculation model for the effective permeability of easy-plane metallic SMCs was formulated.This model was derived from a skin effect-corrected Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert(LLG)equation and integrated with effective medium theory incorporating inter-particle interaction.To validate the model,we prepared samples of easy-plane Y_(2)Co_(17)particle/PU SMCs with varying particle sizes and volume fractions.The experimental results showed a strong agreement with the calculated values.This research offers critical theoretical backing for the design and optimization of soft magnetic materials intended for high-frequency applications.

文摘With the evolution of DC distribution networks from traditional radial topologies to more complex multi-branch structures,the number of measurement points supporting synchronous communication remains relatively limited.This poses challenges for conventional fault distance estimation methods,which are often tailored to simple topologies and are thus difficult to apply to large-scale,multi-node DC networks.To address this,a fault distance estimation method based on sparse measurement of high-frequency electrical quantities is proposed in this paper.First,a preliminary fault line identification model based on compressed sensing is constructed to effectively narrow the fault search range and improve localization efficiency.Then,leveraging the high-frequency impedance characteristics and the voltage-current relationship of electrical quantities,a fault distance estimation approach based on high-frequency measurements from both ends of a line is designed.This enables accurate distance estimation even when the measurement devices are not directly placed at both ends of the faulted line,overcoming the dependence on specific sensor placement inherent in traditional methods.Finally,to further enhance accuracy,an optimization model based on minimizing the high-frequency voltage error at the fault point is introduced to reduce estimation error.Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method achieves a fault distance estimation error of less than 1%under normal conditions,and maintains good performance even under adverse scenarios.
