In the BICGSM-ID scheme, the information bits conveyed by the signal-domain(SiD) symbols and the spatial-domain(SpD) light emitting diode(LED)-index patterns are coded by a protograph low-density parity-check(P-LDPC) code. Specifically, we propose a signal-domain symbol expanding and re-allocating(SSER) method for constructing a type of novel generalized spatial modulation(GSM) constellations, referred to as SSERGSM constellations, so as to boost the performance of the BICGSM-ID MIMO-VLC systems.Moreover, by applying a modified PEXIT(MPEXIT) algorithm, we further design a family of rate-compatible P-LDPC codes, referred to as enhanced accumulate-repeat-accumulate(EARA) codes,which possess both excellent decoding thresholds and linear-minimum-distance-growth property. Both analysis and simulation results illustrate that the proposed SSERGSM constellations and P-LDPC codes can remarkably improve the convergence and decoding performance of MIMO-VLC systems. Therefore, the proposed P-LDPC-coded SSERGSM-mapped BICGSMID configuration is envisioned as a promising transmission solution to satisfy the high-throughput requirement of MIMO-VLC applications.展开更多

Among them, quadrature spatial modulation(QSM) is considered as one method with less capacity and high efficiency. In QSM, the traditional signal detection methods sometimes are unable to meet the actual requirement of low complexity of the system. Therefore, this paper proposes a signal detection scheme for QSM systems using deep learning to solve the complexity problem. Results from the simulations show that the bit error rate performance of the proposed deep learning-based detector is better than that of the zero-forcing(ZF) and minimum mean square error(MMSE) detectors, and similar to the maximum likelihood(ML) detector. Moreover, the proposed method requires less processing time than ZF, MMSE,and ML.展开更多

Our results show that the recollision time window can be precisely controlled within an isolated time interval of several hundred attoseconds, which is useful for understanding the subcycle correlated electron dynamics. More interestingly, the correlated electron momentum distribution (CEMD) exhibits a strong dependence on laser intensity. That is, at lower laser intensity, CEMD is located in the first quadrant. As the laser intensity increases,CEMD shifts almost completely to the second and fourth quadrants, and then gradually to the third quadrant.The underlying physics governing the CEMD's dependence on laser intensity is explained.展开更多

In the BICGSM-ID scheme, the information bits conveyed by the signal-domain(SiD) symbols and the spatial-domain(SpD) light emitting diode(LED)-index patterns are coded by a protograph low-density parity-check(P-LDPC) code. Specifically, we propose a signal-domain symbol expanding and re-allocating(SSER) method for constructing a type of novel generalized spatial modulation(GSM) constellations, referred to as SSERGSM constellations, so as to boost the performance of the BICGSM-ID MIMO-VLC systems.Moreover, by applying a modified PEXIT(MPEXIT) algorithm, we further design a family of rate-compatible P-LDPC codes, referred to as enhanced accumulate-repeat-accumulate(EARA) codes,which possess both excellent decoding thresholds and linear-minimum-distance-growth property. Both analysis and simulation results illustrate that the proposed SSERGSM constellations and P-LDPC codes can remarkably improve the convergence and decoding performance of MIMO-VLC systems. Therefore, the proposed P-LDPC-coded SSERGSM-mapped BICGSMID configuration is envisioned as a promising transmission solution to satisfy the high-throughput requirement of MIMO-VLC applications.

文摘With the development of communication systems, modulation methods are becoming more and more diverse. Among them, quadrature spatial modulation(QSM) is considered as one method with less capacity and high efficiency. In QSM, the traditional signal detection methods sometimes are unable to meet the actual requirement of low complexity of the system. Therefore, this paper proposes a signal detection scheme for QSM systems using deep learning to solve the complexity problem. Results from the simulations show that the bit error rate performance of the proposed deep learning-based detector is better than that of the zero-forcing(ZF) and minimum mean square error(MMSE) detectors, and similar to the maximum likelihood(ML) detector. Moreover, the proposed method requires less processing time than ZF, MMSE,and ML.
文摘In spatial modulation systems,the reliability of the active antenna detection is of vital importance since the modulated symbols tend to be correctly demodulated when the active antennas are accurately identified.In this paper,we propose a spatial coded modulation(SCM)scheme,which improves the accuracy of the active antenna detection by coding over the transmit antennas.Specifically,the antenna activation pattern in the SCM corresponds to a codeword in a properly designed codebook with a larger minimum Hamming distance than the conventional spatial modulation.As the minimum Hamming distance increases,the reliability of the active antenna detection is directly enhanced,which yields a better system reliability.In addition to the reliability,the proposed SCM scheme also achieves a higher capacity with the identical antenna configuration compared to the conventional counterpart.The optimal maximum likelihood detector is first formulated.Then,a low-complexity suboptimal detector is proposed to reduce the computational complexity.Theoretical derivations of the channel capacity and the bit error rate are presented in various channel scenarios.Further derivation on performance bounding is also provided to reveal the insight of the benefit of increasing the minimum Hamming distance.Numerical results validate the analysis and demonstrate that the proposed SCM outperforms the conventional spatial modulation techniques in both channel capacity and system reliability.

文摘Plasmonic modes within metal nanostructures play a pivotal role in various nanophotonic applications.However,a significant challenge arises from the fixed shapes of nanostructures post-fabrication,resulting in limited modes under ordinary illumination.A promising solution lies in far-field control facilitated by spatial light modulators(SLMs),which enable on-site,real-time,and non-destructive manipulation of plasmon excitation.Through the robust modulation of the incident light using SLMs,this approach enables the generation,optimization,and dynamic control of surface plasmon polariton(SPP)and localized surface plasmon(LSP)modes.The versatility of this technique introduces a rich array of tunable degrees of freedom to plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy,offering novel approaches for signal optimization and functional expansion in this field.This paper provides a comprehensive review of the generation and modulation of SPP and LSP modes through far-field control with SLMs and highlights the diverse applications of this optical technology in plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy.

文摘Differential spatial modulation(DSM)is a multiple-input multiple-output(MIMO)transmission scheme.It has attracted extensive research interest due to its ability to transmit additional data without increasing any radio frequency chain.In this paper,DSM is investigated using two mapping algorithms:Look-Up Table Order(LUTO)and Permutation Method(PM).Then,the bit error rate(BER)performance and complexity of the two mapping algorithms in various antennas and modulation methods are verified by simulation experiments.The results show that PM has a lower BER than the LUTO mapping algorithm,and the latter has lower complexity than the former.

文摘Femtosecond laser processing is an important machining method for micro-optical components such as Fresnel zone plate(FZP).However,the low processing efficiency of the femtosecond laser restricts its application.Here,a femtosecond laser Bessel beam is proposed to process micro-FZP,which is modulated from a Gaussian beam to a Bessel annular beam.The processing time for FZP with an outer diameter of 60μm is reduced from 30 min to 1.5 min on an important semiconductor material gallium arsenide(GaAs),which significantly improves the processing efficiency.In the modulation process,a central ablation hole that has an adverse effect on the diffraction performance is produced,and the adverse effect is eliminated by superimposing the blazed grating hologram.Meanwhile,the FZP machined by spatial light modulator(SLM)has good morphology and higher diffraction efficiency,which provides a strong guarantee for the application of micro-FZP in computed tomography and solar photovoltaic cells.

文摘Solid-state batteries(SSBs) with high safety are promising for the energy fields,but the development has long been limited by machinability and interfacial problems.Hence,self-supporting,flexible Nano LLZO CSEs are prepared with a solvent-free method at 25℃.The 99.8 wt% contents of Nano LLZO particles enable the Nano LLZO CSEs to maintain good thermal stability while exhibiting a wide electrochemical window of 5.0 V and a high Li~+ transfer number of 0.8.The mean modulus reaches 4376 MPa.Benefiting from the interfacial modulation,the Li|Li symmetric batteries based on the Nano LLZO CSEs show benign stability with lithium at the current densities of 0.1 mA cm^(-2),0.2 mA cm^(-2),and 0.5 mA cm^(-2).In addition,the Li|LiFePO_(4)(LFP) SSBs achieve favorable cycling performance:the specific capacity reaches128.1 mAh g^(-1) at 0.5 C rate,with a capacity retention of about 80% after 600 cycles.In the further tests of the LiNi_(0.8)Co_(0.1)Mn_(0.1)O_(2)(NCM811) cathodes with higher energy density,the Nano LLZO CSEs also demonstrate good compatibility:the specific capacities of NCM811-based SSBs reach 177.9 mAh g^(-1) at 0.5 C rate,while the capacity retention is over 96% after 150 cycles.Furthermore,the Li|LFP soft-pack SSBs verify the safety characteristics and the potential for application,which have a desirable prospect.

文摘Estimating fracture size is a fundamental aspect of rock engineering.However,determining the most probable diameter(MPD)from a fracture's surface trace remains challenging in the scientific community.The prevailing methodologies typically infer statistical distributions of fracture sizes rather than specific values.This research presents a novel approach to inferring the MPD and the true spatial distribution pattern of each fracture.The challenge lies in linking the inference process with the trace length of each fracture and the statistical characteristics of the entire outcrop.Additionally,it is necessary to address the non-unique inverse problem.The methodology comprises several key steps.Firstly,the issue of censoring bias is addressed by considering the lengths of the traces contained.Secondly,the orientation bias is corrected using the vector method,and the true mean trace length and standard deviation are estimated and derived.Thirdly,assuming a lognormal distribution for fracture sizes,the mean and standard deviation of diameters are derived through a high-order moment relationship between trace lengths and diameters,validated by Crofton's theorem.Finally,the MPDs of all trace samples are determined by relating MPDs to trace lengths and the standard deviation of diameters using stereology techniques.Furthermore,the true fracture spatial patterns are inverted based on spatial geometric relationships.The proposed methodology is validated through rigorous Monte Carlo simulation and applied in a practical engineering case study,demonstrating its potential for use in rock engineering applications.

文摘Current research on rail vehicle system vibrations primarily relies on numerical methods,with vibration transfer functions commonly derived through data fitting.However,the physical mechanisms underlying these vibrations are not well understood.To clarify the vibration transfer function and its characteristics,four basic input vectors are defined,and an analytical method is proposed.The vibration transfer functions of the vehicle system are solved,and their spatial coherence is analyzed.The results show that there are two spatial scales and four coherent modes in the vehicle system.The track irregularity wavelengths are combined with two spatial scales to alter the proportions of basic input vectors and then show the characteristics of spatial coherence.Four coherent modes are involved in wheel-rail force and primary suspension force;two coherent modes are involved in bogie vertical motion;and their dominant modes vary with the input frequency.On the other hand,the coherent modes involved in the bogie pitching motion and vehicle body motion are single and fixed over the whole range of frequency.This study presents an analytical method for the rapid solution of dynamic responses in vehicle systems and systematically analyzes the coherence behavior of vibration transfer functions with respect to tracking irregularity wavelengths.

文摘A DFN-DEC(discrete fracture network-distinct element code)method based on the MATLAB platform is developed to generate heterogeneous DFN.Subsequently,the effects of the spatial variability(the meanμand the standard deviationσ)of the geometric properties(i.e.,the fracture dip D,the trace length T and the spacing S)of both the gently-dipping(denoted with 1)and the steeply-dipping(denoted with 2)fractures on the stability of granite slope are investigated.Results indicate that the proposed DFN-DEC method is robust,generating fracture networks that resemble reality.In addition,the spatial variability of fracture geometry,influencing the structure of granite slope,plays a significant role in slope stability.The mean stability of the slope decreases with the increase ofμ_(D_(1))(the mean of gently-dipping fracture dip),σ_(D_(2))(the mean of steeply-dipping fracture dip),μ_(T_(1))(the mean of gently-dipping fracture trace length),μ_(T_(2))(the mean of steeply-dipping fracture trace length),σ_(T_(1))(the standard deviation of gently-dipping fracture trace length),σ_(T_(2))(the standard deviation of steeply-dipping fracture trace length),and the decrease ofσ_(D_(1))(the standard deviation of gently-dipping fracture dip),μ_(D_(2))(the standard deviation of steeply-dipping fracture dip),μ_(S_(1))(the mean of gently-dipping fracture spacing)andμ_(S_(2))(the mean of steeply-dipping fracture spacing).Among them,μ_(T_(1)),μ_(D_(1))andμ_(S_(1))have the major impact.When the fracture spacing is large,the variability in the fracture geometry becomes less relevant to slope stability.When within some ranges of the fracture spacing,the spatial varying of dips can increase the slope stability by forming an interlaced structure.The results also show that the effects of the variability of trace length on slope stability depend on the variability of dip.These findings highlight the importance of spatial variability in the geometry of fractures to rock slope stability analysis.

文摘With a three-dimensional semiclassical ensemble method, we theoretically investigated the nonsequential double ionization of Ar driven by the spatially inhomogeneous few-cycle negatively chirped laser pulses. Our results show that the recollision time window can be precisely controlled within an isolated time interval of several hundred attoseconds, which is useful for understanding the subcycle correlated electron dynamics. More interestingly, the correlated electron momentum distribution (CEMD) exhibits a strong dependence on laser intensity. That is, at lower laser intensity, CEMD is located in the first quadrant. As the laser intensity increases,CEMD shifts almost completely to the second and fourth quadrants, and then gradually to the third quadrant.The underlying physics governing the CEMD's dependence on laser intensity is explained.
