Accuracy analysis is the basis of accuracy design. However, a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for parallel manipulator is still needed. In order to enhance solution efficiency, an interval analysis method（lA method） is introduced to solve the terminal error bound of the Stewart platform with detailed solution path. Taking a terminal pose of the Stewart platform in FAST as an example, the terminal error is solved by the Monte Carlo method（MC method） by 4 980 s, the stochastic mathematical method（SM method） by 0.078 s, and the IA method by 2.203 s. Compared with MC method, the terminal error by SM method leads a 20% underestimate while the IA method can envelop the real error bound of the Stewart platform. This indicates that the IA method outperforms the other two methods by providing quick calculations and enveloping the real error bound of the Stewart platform. According to the given structural error of the dimension parameters of the Stewart platform, the IA method gives a maximum position error of 19.91 mm and maximum orientation error of 0.534°, which suggests that the IA method can be used for accuracy design of the Stewart platfbnn in FAST. The 1A method presented is a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for Stewart platform.展开更多

Thus, to propose a concise and intuitive type synthesis method for engineering application is a very challenging issue, which should be further studied in the field. Grassmann line geometry, which can investigate the dimensions of spatial line-clusters in a concise way, is taken as the mathematic foundation. Atlas method is introduced to visually describe the degrees of freedom（DOFs） and constraints of a mechanism, and the dual rule is brought in to realize the mutual conversion of the freedom-space and constraint-space. Consequently, a systematic method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is generated and the entire type synthesis process is presented. Three type 4-DOF PKMs, i.e., 1T3R, 2T2R and 3T1R（T： translational DOF; R： rotational DOF）, are classified according to the different combinations of the translational DOFs and rotational DOFs. The type synthesis of 4-DOF PKMs is carried out and the possible configurations are thoroughly investigated. Some new PKMs with useful functions are generated during this procedure. The type synthesis method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is intuitive and concise, and can reduce the complexity of the PKMs＇ type synthesis. Moreover, this method can provide theoretical guidance for other PKMs＇ type synthesis and engineering application. A novel type synthesis method is proposed, which solves the existing methods＇ problems in terms of complicated, not intuitive and unsuitable for practical application.展开更多

文摘Birefringence-Zeeman dual frequency lasers are capable of producing frequency difference from several kilohertz to hundreds of megahertz, but the precision of giving and stabilizing of the beat frequency still needs improvement to the range of ±200 kHz. We design a new elastic force-exerting device comprised of the bottom part, two arms and two pieces of force-exerting sheets. The frequency difference smoothly tuning is realized with this device in a large range of 2 MHz to 20 MHz. Power-balance frequency stabilization system is used to investigate characters of the temperature, frequency difference and laser power. The precision of the frequency difference has reach up to ±100 kHz after system temperature balance. Analyses of the laser frequency difference and power character are carried out.

文摘In this paper,a method for spoofing detection based on the variation of the signal’s carrier-to-noise ratio(CNR)is proposed.This method leverages the directionality of the antenna to induce varying gain changes in the signals across different incident directions,resulting in distinct CNR variations for each signal.A model is developed to calculate the variation value of the signal CNR based on the antenna gain pattern.This model enables the differentiation of the variation values of the CNR for authentic satellite signals and spoofing signals,thereby facilitating spoofing detection.The proposed method is capable of detecting spoofing signals with power and CNR similar to those of authentic satellite signals.The accuracy of the signal CNR variation value calculation model and the effectiveness of the spoofing detection method are verified through a series of experiments.In addition,the proposed spoofing detection method works not only for a single spoofing source but also for distributed spoofing sources.

文摘Frequency-modulated continuous-wave light detection and ranging(FMCW lidar)is a powerful high-precision ranging and three-dimensional(3D)imaging technology with inherent immunity to ambient light and the ability to simultaneously yield distance and velocity information.However,the current withdraws of the traditional FMCW lidar systems are the poor resistance to environmental disturbance and high requirements for echo power,which greatly restrict their applications for high-precision ranging of noncooperative targets in dynamic measurement scenes.Here,we report an all-fiber anti-interference FMCW lidar system with high sensitivity and precision,employing a unique self-mixing stimulation radiation process for signal amplification,a special reversely chirped dual laser structure,and a common-path design for disturbance compensation.We evaluate the ranging accuracy,precision,and stability of the system completely.Finally,we demonstrate an ultralow echo detection limit of subpicowatts with a probe power of below 0.1 mW,a state-of-art localization accuracy of better than 50μm,high stability with a standard deviation of 6.51μm over 3 h,and high-quality 3D imaging of noncooperative objects in a fluctuating environment.With the advantages of high precision and stability,weak signal detection capability,and anti-interference ability,the proposed system has potential applications in space exploration,autodriving,and high-precision manufacturing.

文摘In this paper,the newly-derived maximum correntropy Kalman filter(MCKF)is re-derived from the M-estimation perspective,where the MCKF can be viewed as a special case of the M-estimations and the Gaussian kernel function is a special case of many robust cost functions.Based on the derivation process,a unified form for the robust Gaussian filters(RGF)based on M-estimation is proposed to suppress the outliers and non-Gaussian noise in the measurement.The RGF provides a unified form for one Gaussian filter with different cost functions and a unified form for one robust filter with different approximating methods for the involved Gaussian integrals.Simulation results show that RGF with different weighting functions and different Gaussian integral approximation methods has robust antijamming performance.

文摘Novel thin films consisting of optical materials such as lithium niobate and barium titanate enable various high-performance integrated photonic devices.However,the nanofabrication of these devices requires high-quality etching of these thin films,necessitating the long-term development of the fabrication recipe and specialized equipment.Here we present a strong-confinement low-index-rib-loaded waveguide structure as the building block of various passive and active integrated photonic devices based on novel thin films.By optimizing this low-index-rib-loaded waveguide structure without etching the novel thin film,we can simultaneously realize strong optical power confinement in the thin film,low optical propagation loss,and strong electro-optic coupling for the fundamental transverse electric mode.Based on our low-index-rib-loaded waveguide structure,we designed and fabricated a thin film lithium niobate(TFLN)modulator,featuring a 3-dB modulation bandwidth over 110 GHz and a voltage-length product as low as 2.26 V·cm,which is comparable to those of the state-of-the-art etched TFLN modulators.By alleviating the etching of novel thin films,the proposed structure opens up new ways of fast proof-of-concept demonstration and even mass production of high-performance integrated electro-optic and nonlinear devices based on novel thin films.

文摘A Stewart platform is introduced in thc 500 m aperture spherical radio telescope（FAST） as an accuracy adjustable mechanism for teed receivers. Accuracy analysis is the basis of accuracy design. However, a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for parallel manipulator is still needed. In order to enhance solution efficiency, an interval analysis method（lA method） is introduced to solve the terminal error bound of the Stewart platform with detailed solution path. Taking a terminal pose of the Stewart platform in FAST as an example, the terminal error is solved by the Monte Carlo method（MC method） by 4 980 s, the stochastic mathematical method（SM method） by 0.078 s, and the IA method by 2.203 s. Compared with MC method, the terminal error by SM method leads a 20% underestimate while the IA method can envelop the real error bound of the Stewart platform. This indicates that the IA method outperforms the other two methods by providing quick calculations and enveloping the real error bound of the Stewart platform. According to the given structural error of the dimension parameters of the Stewart platform, the IA method gives a maximum position error of 19.91 mm and maximum orientation error of 0.534°, which suggests that the IA method can be used for accuracy design of the Stewart platfbnn in FAST. The 1A method presented is a rapid and effective accuracy analysis method for Stewart platform.

文摘Many methods are proposed to deal with the type synthesis of parallel kinematic mechanisms（PKMs）, but most of them are less intuitive to some extent. Thus, to propose a concise and intuitive type synthesis method for engineering application is a very challenging issue, which should be further studied in the field. Grassmann line geometry, which can investigate the dimensions of spatial line-clusters in a concise way, is taken as the mathematic foundation. Atlas method is introduced to visually describe the degrees of freedom（DOFs） and constraints of a mechanism, and the dual rule is brought in to realize the mutual conversion of the freedom-space and constraint-space. Consequently, a systematic method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is generated and the entire type synthesis process is presented. Three type 4-DOF PKMs, i.e., 1T3R, 2T2R and 3T1R（T： translational DOF; R： rotational DOF）, are classified according to the different combinations of the translational DOFs and rotational DOFs. The type synthesis of 4-DOF PKMs is carried out and the possible configurations are thoroughly investigated. Some new PKMs with useful functions are generated during this procedure. The type synthesis method based on Grassmann line geometry and Atlas method is intuitive and concise, and can reduce the complexity of the PKMs＇ type synthesis. Moreover, this method can provide theoretical guidance for other PKMs＇ type synthesis and engineering application. A novel type synthesis method is proposed, which solves the existing methods＇ problems in terms of complicated, not intuitive and unsuitable for practical application.

文摘A multiple-legged robot is traditionally controlled by using its dynamic model.But the dynamic-model-based approach fails to acquire satisfactory performances when the robot faces rough terrains and unknown environments.Referring animals＇ neural control mechanisms,a control model is built for a quadruped robot walking adaptively.The basic rhythmic motion of the robot is controlled by a well-designed rhythmic motion controller（RMC） comprising a central pattern generator（CPG） for hip joints and a rhythmic coupler（RC） for knee joints.CPG and RC have relationships of motion-mapping and rhythmic couple.Multiple sensory-motor models,abstracted from the neural reflexes of a cat,are employed.These reflex models are organized and thus interact with the CPG in three layers,to meet different requirements of complexity and response time to the tasks.On the basis of the RMC and layered biological reflexes,a quadruped robot is constructed,which can clear obstacles and walk uphill and downhill autonomously,and make a turn voluntarily in uncertain environments,interacting with the environment in a way similar to that of an animal.The paper provides a biologically inspired architecture,with which a robot can walk adaptively in uncertain environments in a simple and effective way,and achieve better performances.
