Although application of the Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar(DPR) of the Global Precipitation Measurement Core Observatory for GR assessment is well-established, current methodologies are inherently limited. Focusing on three GRs in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area(GBA)—strategically selected for their high overlapping coverage(>65%) and distinct from single GR or less dense coverage studies—this work introduces key refinements by integrating innovative enhancements into the volume-matching method(VMM), reflecting a systematic approach to mitigating potential error sources. Specifically, we integrate: 1) a novel frequency correction method that adapts to DPR-observed precipitation phase and type, replacing assumption-based polynomial fitting;and 2) a precise beam time-difference matching approach(accuracy < 1 s) to minimize temporal mismatch errors, which improves upon coarser time averaging methods. Furthermore, we developed statistically robust, optimized threshold criteria based on systematic sensitivity analyses using 11 quality control factors, including precipitation type, bright band effects, and attenuation correction limitations. These criteria establish an enhanced protocol designed to minimize errors arising from instrumental, frequency, and scanning differences. Application of this enhanced methodology to the GBA GRs(2021–2023) yielded a significantly improved matching accuracy(correlation coefficient, CC: 0.90–0.95;standard deviation,STD: 1.2–1.6 dB). A unique contribution of this work is the quantitative estimation of historical calibration errors and operational stability, which was achieved by linking VMM results with operational GR calibration and maintenance records. This analysis revealed decreasing STD trends and identified specific calibration-related events, such as an underestimation of approximately 2.43 dB for the Shenzhen radar following calibration in 2023. Consequently, the refined methodology provides a robust framework for ongoing GR network monitoring and offers a validated pathway for authenticating China's Fengyun-3G(FY-3G) satellite precipitation measurement radar(PMR) data.展开更多

On the other hand, geostationary(GEO)weather satellites provide continuous observations with seamless coverage with advanced imager, despite their limited capability to penetrate clouds. Combining satellite and ground-radar observations could exploit the advantages of both techniques, providing tracking capability close to that of ground radar while maintaining full spatial coverage. This study presents a novel method called Multi-dimensional satellite Observation information for Radar Estimation(MORE) to reconstruct radar composite reflectivity(CREF). Deep learning techniques are important components of MORE for estimating CREF from China's Fengyun-4B(FY-4B) GEO satellite observations. Two models are developed: an infraredonly(IR-Single) model available for all times, and a visible-infrared(VIS+IR) model for daytime applications. These models incorporate multi-dimensional satellite observation information, including temporal, spatial, spectral, and viewing angle information, to enhance the accuracy of radar echo reconstruction. Results demonstrate that the VIS+IR model outperforms the IR-Single model, and both models achieves a root-mean-square error(RMSE) of less than 6 dBZ and a coefficient of determination(R~2) of greater than 0.7. The models effectively reconstruct radar echoes, including strong echoes exceeding 50 dBZ, and show good agreement with precipitation data in radar-blind areas. This study offers a valuable solution for severe weather monitoring and tracking in regions lacking ground-based radar observations, and provides a potential tool for enhanced data assimilation in numerical weather prediction(NWP) models.展开更多

X-ray detection and microscopic observation display the composites which are macroscopically homogeneous without porosity. The investigation further reveals that the SiC/Al composites possess low density (2.94 g/cm^3), high elastic modulus (220 GPa), prominent thermal management function as a result of low coefficient of thermal expansion (8 × 10^4 K^-1) and high thermal conductivity (235 W/(m.K)) as well as unique preventability of resonance vibration. By adopting a series of developed techniques, the multi-functional SiC/Al composites have managed to be made into near-net-shape parts. Many kinds of precision components of space-based optomechanical structures and airborne optoelectronic platform have been turned out. Of them, several typical products are being under test in practices.展开更多

This method, which is deduced from the syntactic modeling of multi-function radars, considers the probabilities of radar phrases appearance in different radar modes as well as the probabilities of radar word errors occurrence in different radar phrases. It concludes that the proposed method can not only correct the defective radar words by using the stochastic translation schema, but also identify the real radar phrases and working modes of measured emitters concurrently. Furthermore, a number of simulations are presented to demonstrate the identification capability and adaptability of the SSDTS algorithm.The results show that even under the condition of the defective radar words distorted by noise,the proposed algorithm can infer the phrases, work modes and types of measured emitters correctly.展开更多

In this work, we propose a multi-functional PSHE sensor based on VO_(2), a material that can reveal the phase transition behavior. By applying thermal control, the mutual transformation into different phase states of VO_(2) can be realized, which contributes to the flexible switching between multiple RI sensing tasks. When VO_(2) is insulating, the ultrasensitive detection of glucose concentrations in human blood is achieved. When VO_(2) is in a mixed phase, the structure can be designed to distinguish between the normal cells and cancer cells through no-label and real-time monitoring. When VO_(2) is metallic, the proposed PSHE sensor can act as an RI indicator for gas analytes. Compared with other multi-functional sensing devices with the complex structures, our design consists of only one analyte and two VO_(2) layers, which is very simple and elegant. Therefore, the proposed VO_(2)-based PSHE sensor has outstanding advantages such as small size, high sensitivity, no-label, and real-time detection, providing a new approach for investigating tunable multi-functional sensors.展开更多

文摘This paper addresses weak target detection problem for bistatic radar via a pseudo-spectrum(PS)based track-before-detect(TBD).Generally,PS-TBD estimates target position and velocity by means of pseudo-spectrum construction in the discrete measurement space and accurate energy accumulation in mixed coordinates.However,the grids within the polar sensing region of the receivers in the bistatic radar are not aligned.Traditional PS-TBD can not directly process these measurements.In this paper,a PS-TBD method for bistatic radar is proposed to overcome this problem.Each cell in the measurement space of the receivers is mapped to the aligned Cartesian coordinates and predicted to the integration frame according to the assumed filter velocity.A PS is formulated centered on the predicted Cartesian position.Then the samples of the pseudo-spectra are accumulated to the nearest cell around the predicted Cartesian position.The procedure of the energy integration is derived in detail.Simulation results validate the efficacy of the proposed method in terms of detection accuracy and parameter estimation.

文摘To address the issues of poor adaptability in resource allocation and low multi-agent cooperation efficiency in Joint Radar and Communication(JRC)systems under dynamic environments,an intelligent optimization framework integrating Deep Reinforcement Learning(DRL)and Graph Neural Network(GNN)is proposed.This framework models resource allocation as a Partially Observable Markov Game(POMG),designs a weighted reward function to balance radar and communication efficiencies,adopts the Multi-Agent Proximal Policy Optimization(MAPPO)framework,and integrates Graph Convolutional Networks(GCN)and Graph Sample and Aggregate(Graph-SAGE)to optimize information interaction.Simulations show that,compared with traditional methods and pure DRL methods,the proposed framework achieves improvements in performance metrics such as communication success rate,Average Age of Information(AoI),and policy convergence speed,effectively enabling resource management in complex environments.Moreover,the proposed GNN-DRL-based intelligent optimization framework obtains significantly better performance for resource management in multi-agent JRC systems than traditional methods and pure DRL methods.
文摘In high-intensity electromagnetic warfare,radar systems are persistently subjected to multi-jammer attacks,including potentially novel unknown jamming types that may emerge exclusively under wartime conditions.These jamming signals severely degrade radar detection performance.Precise recognition of these unknown and compound jamming signals is critical to enhancing the anti-jamming capabilities and overall reliability of radar systems.To address this challenge,this article proposes a novel open-set compound jamming cognition(OSCJC)method.The proposed method employs a detection-classification dual-network architecture,which not only overcomes the false alarm and misdetection issues of traditional closed-set recognition methods when dealing with unknown jamming but also effectively addresses the performance bottleneck of existing open-set recognition techniques focusing on single jamming scenarios in compound jamming environments.To achieve unknown jamming detection,we first employ a consistency labeling strategy to train the detection network using diverse known jamming samples.This strategy enables the network to acquire highly generalizable jamming features,thereby accurately localizing candidate regions for individual jamming components within compound jamming.Subsequently,we introduce contrastive learning to optimize the classification network,significantly enhancing both intra-class clustering and inter-class separability in the jamming feature space.This method not only improves the recognition accuracy of the classification network for known jamming types but also enhances its sensitivity to unknown jamming types.Simulations and experimental data are used to verify the effectiveness of the proposed OSCJC method.Compared with the state-of-the-art open-set recognition methods,the proposed method demonstrates superior recognition accuracy and enhanced environmental adaptability.

文摘In this paper,the joint design of transmit and receive beamformers for transmit subaperturing multiple-input-multiple-output(TS-MIMO)radar is investigated,aiming to enhance its low probability of intercept(LPI)capability.The main objective is to simultaneously minimize the transmission power,suppress the transmit sidelobe levels,and minimize the probability of intercept,thus bolstering the LPI performance of the radar system while maintaining the desired target detection performance.An alternative optimization method is proposed to jointly optimize the transmit and receive beamformers,yielding an unified LPI optimization framework.Particularly,the proposed iterative algorithm based on the Lagrange duality theory for transmit beamforming is more efficient than the conventional convex optimization method.Numerical experiments highlight the effectiveness of the proposed approach in sidelobe suppression and computational efficiency.

文摘Integrated sensing and communication(ISAC)is an appealing approach to address spectrum congestion and beamforming is an effective method to realize ISAC.In this paper,we investigate the beamforming design problem for multiple-input multipleoutput(MIMO)ISAC systems and propose to maximize the radar beampattern gain of the target direction while ensuring the signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio(SINR)constraints of communication users.Particularly,we discuss two cases of ISAC transmit beamforming,i.e.,Case-Ⅰand Case-Ⅱ,which do not have and do have the dedicated probing signal,respectively.For these two cases of transmit beamforming design problems,we start from the single-user scenario and provide the closed-form solutions for MIMO ISAC beamforming vectors.Then,we consider the multiuser scenario and utilize the semidefinite relaxation technique to convert the beamforming design problems into convex semidefinite programming problems.Furthermore,we investigate the impact of the channel correlation between radar and communication on the performance gain of MIMO ISAC systems and characterize the performance tradeoff.Numerical results validate that the dedicated probing signal is unnecessary in the single-user scenario,whereas it has a slight improvement in target detection performance at low SINR thresholds in the multi-user scenario.It is also shown that the stronger the correlation between radar and communication channels,the greater the performance gain of the system.

文摘Within the domain of Intelligent Group Systems(IGSs),this paper develops a resourceaware multitarget Constant False Alarm Rate(CFAR)detection framework for multisite MIMO radar systems.It underscores the necessity of managing finite transmit and receive antennas and transmit power systematically to enhance detection performance.To tackle the multidimensional resource optimization challenge,we introduce a Cooperative Transmit-Receive Antenna Selection and Power Allocation(CTRSPA)strategy.It employs a perception-action cycle that incorporates uncertain external support information to optimize worst-case detection performance with multiple targets.First,we derive a closed-form expression that incorporates uncertainty for the noncoherent integration squared-law detection probability using the Neyman-Pearson criterion.Subsequently,a joint optimization model for antenna selection and power allocation in CFAR detection is formulated,incorporating practical radar resource constraints.Mathematically,this represents an NPhard problem involving coupled continuous and Boolean variables.We propose a three-stage method—Reformulation,Node Picker,and Convex Power Allocation—that capitalizes on the independent convexity of the optimization model for each variable,ensuring a near-optimal result.Simulations confirm the approach's effectiveness,efficiency,and timeliness,particularly for large-scale radar networks,and reveal the impact of threat levels,system layout,and detection parameters on resource allocation.

文摘Multi-functional Al-matrix composites with high volume fraction (55%-57%) of SiC particles are produced with the new pressureless infiltration fabrication technology. X-ray detection and microscopic observation display the composites which are macroscopically homogeneous without porosity. The investigation further reveals that the SiC/Al composites possess low density (2.94 g/cm^3), high elastic modulus (220 GPa), prominent thermal management function as a result of low coefficient of thermal expansion (8 × 10^4 K^-1) and high thermal conductivity (235 W/(m.K)) as well as unique preventability of resonance vibration. By adopting a series of developed techniques, the multi-functional SiC/Al composites have managed to be made into near-net-shape parts. Many kinds of precision components of space-based optomechanical structures and airborne optoelectronic platform have been turned out. Of them, several typical products are being under test in practices.

文摘To cope with the problem of emitter identification caused by the radar words' uncertainty of measured multi-function radar emitters, this paper proposes a new identification method based on stochastic syntax-directed translation schema(SSDTS). This method, which is deduced from the syntactic modeling of multi-function radars, considers the probabilities of radar phrases appearance in different radar modes as well as the probabilities of radar word errors occurrence in different radar phrases. It concludes that the proposed method can not only correct the defective radar words by using the stochastic translation schema, but also identify the real radar phrases and working modes of measured emitters concurrently. Furthermore, a number of simulations are presented to demonstrate the identification capability and adaptability of the SSDTS algorithm.The results show that even under the condition of the defective radar words distorted by noise,the proposed algorithm can infer the phrases, work modes and types of measured emitters correctly.

文摘Folate receptor(FR)overexpression occurs in a variety of cancers,including pancreatic cancer.In addition,enhanced macropinocytosis exists in K-Ras mutant pancreatic cancer.Furthermore,the occurrence of intensive desmoplasia causes a hypoxic microenvironment in pancreatic cancer.In this study,a novel FR-directed,macropinocytosis-enhanced,and highly cytotoxic bioconjugate folate(F)-human serum albumin(HSA)-apoprotein of lidamycin(LDP)-active enediyne(AE)derived from lidamycin was designed and prepared.F-HSA-LDP-AE consisted of four moieties:F,HSA,LDP,and AE.F-HSA-LDP presented high binding efficiency with the FR and pancreatic cancer cells.Its uptake in wild-type cells was more extensive than in K-Ras mutant-type cells.By in vivo optical imaging,F-HSA-LDP displayed prominent tumor-specific biodistribution in pancreatic cancer xenograft-bearing mice,showing clear and lasting tumor localization for 360 h.In the MTT assay,F-HSA-LDP-AE demonstrated potent cytotoxicity in three types of pancreatic cancer cell lines.It also induced apoptosis and caused G2/M cell cycle arrest.F-HSALDP-AE markedly suppressed the tumor growth of AsPc-1 pancreatic cancer xenografts in athymic mice.At well-tolerated doses of 0.5 and 1 mg/kg,(i.v.,twice),the inhibition rates were 91.2%and 94.8%,respectively(P<0.01).The results of this study indicate that the F-HSA-LDP multi-functional bioconjugate might be effective for treating K-Ras mutant pancreatic cancer.

文摘Photonic spin Hall effect(PSHE), as a novel physical effect in light–matter interaction, provides an effective metrological method for characterizing the tiny variation in refractive index(RI). In this work, we propose a multi-functional PSHE sensor based on VO_(2), a material that can reveal the phase transition behavior. By applying thermal control, the mutual transformation into different phase states of VO_(2) can be realized, which contributes to the flexible switching between multiple RI sensing tasks. When VO_(2) is insulating, the ultrasensitive detection of glucose concentrations in human blood is achieved. When VO_(2) is in a mixed phase, the structure can be designed to distinguish between the normal cells and cancer cells through no-label and real-time monitoring. When VO_(2) is metallic, the proposed PSHE sensor can act as an RI indicator for gas analytes. Compared with other multi-functional sensing devices with the complex structures, our design consists of only one analyte and two VO_(2) layers, which is very simple and elegant. Therefore, the proposed VO_(2)-based PSHE sensor has outstanding advantages such as small size, high sensitivity, no-label, and real-time detection, providing a new approach for investigating tunable multi-functional sensors.
