Firstly, the wideband signals are divided into several narrowband signals of different frequency bins by discrete Fourier transformation(DFT). Then, the signal matched power spectrum in referenced frequency bins is computed, which can form the initial covariance matrix. Finally, the linear restrained minimum variance spectral(Capon spectral) of signals in other frequency bins are reconstructed using sequential iterative means, so the DOA can be estimated by the locations of spectral peaks. Theoretical analysis and simulation results show the proposed method based on the iterative spectral reconstruction for the covariance matrices of all sub-bands can avoid the problem of determining the signal subspace accurately with the coherent signal subspace method under the conditions of small samples and low signal to noise ratio(SNR), and it can also realize full dimensional focusing of different sub-band data, which can be applied to coherent sources and can significantly improve the accuracy of DOA estimation.展开更多

With this capability, ROSAR has extensive potential applications, such as self-navigation and self-landing. Moreover, it has many advantages if combined with the frequency modulated continuous wave （FMCW） technology. A novel geometric configuration and an imaging algorithm for helicopter-borne FMCW-ROSAR are proposed. Firstly, by per- forming the equivalent phase center principle, the separated trans- mitting and receiving antenna system is equalized to the case of system configuration with antenna for both transmitting and receiving signals. Based on this, the accurate two-dimensional spectrum is obtained and the Doppler frequency shift effect in- duced by the continuous motion of the platform during the long pulse duration is compensated. Next, the impacts of the velocity approximation error on the imaging algorithm are analyzed in de- tail, and the system parameters selection and resolution analysis are presented. The well-focused SAR image is then obtained by using the improved Omega-K algorithm incorporating the accurate compensation method for the velocity approximation error. FJnally, correctness of the analysis and effectiveness of the proposed al- gorithm are demonstrated through simulation results.展开更多

Because the TV signal is a kind of pseudoperiodic signal, the matched filtering of color TV signals would yield high sidelobes which cause the range ambiguity. To overcome this problem, the mismatched filter is proposed to suppress the correlation sidelobcs of matched filtering of TV signals. By utilizing the iteration process, this method could achieve the required peak sidclobc level. The impacts of the noise and target movement on mismatched filtering are also analysed, Simulation results are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique.展开更多

The sum-difference data are obtained by orthogonal projection of the joint pixels data of different synthetic aperture radar （SAR） images generated by a multi-satellite radar system. In the sense of statistical expectation, the sum-difference data contain the common and different information of the SAR images. Therefore, the objective of clutter cancellation can be achieved by adaptive processing. Moreover, based on the residual image after clutter rejection, statistical analysis of constant false-alarm rate （CFAR） detection of moving targets is also presented. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm even with heterogeneous clutter and image co-registration error.展开更多

This paper presents a low-cost approach for automatic detection and characterization of human veins from IR images. The proposed method uses image processing techniques including segmentation, feature extraction, and, pattern recognition algorithms. Initially, the IR images are preprocessed to enhance vein structures and reduce noise. Subsequently, a CLAHE algorithm is employed to extract vein regions based on their unique IR absorption properties. Features such as vein thickness, orientation, and branching patterns are extracted using mathematical morphology and directional filters. Finally, a classification framework is implemented to categorize veins and distinguish them from surrounding tissues or artifacts. A setup based on Raspberry Pi was used. Experimental results of IR images demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach in accurately detecting and characterizing human. The developed system shows promising for integration into applications requiring reliable and secure identification based on vein patterns. Our work provides an effective and low-cost solution for nursing staff in low and middle-income countries to perform a safe and accurate venipuncture.展开更多

To overcome this problem, the mismatched filter is proposed to suppress the correlation sidelobcs of matched filtering of TV signals. By utilizing the iteration process, this method could achieve the required peak sidclobc level. The impacts of the noise and target movement on mismatched filtering are also analysed, Simulation results are included to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique.

文摘In this article, a new reduced-dimensional adaptive processing algorithm based on joint pixels sum-difference data for clutter rejection is proposed. The sum-difference data are obtained by orthogonal projection of the joint pixels data of different synthetic aperture radar （SAR） images generated by a multi-satellite radar system. In the sense of statistical expectation, the sum-difference data contain the common and different information of the SAR images. Therefore, the objective of clutter cancellation can be achieved by adaptive processing. Moreover, based on the residual image after clutter rejection, statistical analysis of constant false-alarm rate （CFAR） detection of moving targets is also presented. Simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed algorithm even with heterogeneous clutter and image co-registration error.

文摘A method for estimating current harmonics of an induction motor is introduced which is used for sensorless monitoring of a mechanical system driven by the motor. The method is based on an adaptive signal representation and is proposed to extract weak harmonics from a noisy current signal, especially in the presence of additive interference caused by transient modulation waves. As an application, a rotor unbalance experiment of rotating machinery driven by an induction motor is carried out, The result shows that the eccentricity harmonic magnitude of a current signal obtained by the method represents the rotor unbalance conditions sensitively. Vibration analysis is used to validate the proposed method.

文摘Aiming at the prediction of the size of human cerebral hemorrhage point, a signal processing method based on Resonance Sparse Decomposition (RSSD) algorithm is proposed to decompose and analyze the microwave echo signal. According to the organizational structure of the human brain, a complete human brain model was established, and bleeding points of different sizes were placed at the same position, and 5 antennas were placed around the model (front, back, left, right, and top). RSSD is performed on the obtained echo signal, and Hilbert envelope analysis is performed on the low resonance component obtained by the decomposition, and then the size of the bleeding point is judged. Using CST and MATLAB to conduct simulation analysis and experiments, it is verified that the proposed method can successfully determine the size of the bleeding point, and the effectiveness and feasibility of the method are proved.
文摘The detection and characterization of human veins using infrared (IR) image processing have gained significant attention due to its potential applications in biometric identification, medical diagnostics, and vein-based authentication systems. This paper presents a low-cost approach for automatic detection and characterization of human veins from IR images. The proposed method uses image processing techniques including segmentation, feature extraction, and, pattern recognition algorithms. Initially, the IR images are preprocessed to enhance vein structures and reduce noise. Subsequently, a CLAHE algorithm is employed to extract vein regions based on their unique IR absorption properties. Features such as vein thickness, orientation, and branching patterns are extracted using mathematical morphology and directional filters. Finally, a classification framework is implemented to categorize veins and distinguish them from surrounding tissues or artifacts. A setup based on Raspberry Pi was used. Experimental results of IR images demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach in accurately detecting and characterizing human. The developed system shows promising for integration into applications requiring reliable and secure identification based on vein patterns. Our work provides an effective and low-cost solution for nursing staff in low and middle-income countries to perform a safe and accurate venipuncture.

文摘In Power Line Communications(PLC),there are regulatory masks that restrict the transmit power spectral density for electromagnetic compatibility reasons,which creates coverage issues despite the not too long distances.Hence,PLC networks often employ repeaters/relays,especially in smart grid neighborhood area networks.Even in broadband indoor PLC systems that offer a notable data rate,relaying may pave the way to new applications like being the backbone for wireless technologies in a cost-effective manner to support the Internet-of-things paradigm.In this paper,we study Multiple-Input Multiple-Output(MIMO)PLC systems that incorporate inband full-duplex functionality in relaying networks.We present several MIMO configurations that allow end-to-end half-duplex or full-duplex operations and analyze the achievable performance with state-of-the-art PLC systems.To reach this analysis,we get channel realizations from random network layouts for indoor and outdoor scenarios.We adopt realistic MIMO channel and noise models and consider transmission techniques according to PLC standards.The concepts discussed in this work can be useful in the design of future PLC relay-aided networks for different applications that look for a coverage extension and/or throughput:smart grids with enhanced communications in outdoor scenarios,and“last meter”systems for high-speed connections everywhere in indoor ones.

文摘Hypergraphs can accurately capture complex higher-order relationships,but it is challenging to identify their important nodes.In this paper,an improved PageRank(ImPageRank)algorithm is designed to identify important nodes in a directed hypergraph.The algorithm introduces the Jaccard similarity of directed hypergraphs.By comparing the numbers of common neighbors between nodes with the total number of their neighbors,the Jaccard similarity measure takes into account the similarity between nodes that are not directly connected,and can reflect the potential correlation between nodes.An improved susceptible–infected(SI)model in directed hypergraph is proposed,which considers nonlinear propagation mode and more realistic propagation mechanism.In addition,some important node evaluation methods are transferred from undirected hypergraphs and applied to directed hypergraphs.Finally,the ImPageRank algorithm is used to evaluate the performance of the SI model,network robustness and monotonicity.Simulations of real networks demonstrate the excellent performance of the proposed algorithm and provide a powerful framework for identifying important nodes in directed hypergraphs.

文摘A mode-pairing quantum key distribution based on heralded pair-coherent source with passive decoy-states is proposed,named HPCS-PDS-MP-QKD protocol,where the light sources at Alice and Bob sides are changed to heralded pair-coherent sources,and devices designed to implement passive decoy states are included at the transmitter sides to generate the decoy state pulses in the decoy-state window passively.With the defined efficient events and the designed pairing strategy,the key bits and bases can be obtained by data post-processing.Numerical simulation results verify the feasibility of the proposed protocol.The results show that the proposed protocol can exceed PLOB when the pairing interval setting is greater than 10^(3),and the transmission distance exceeds 200 km.When the key transmission distance reaches 300 km and the maximum pairing interval is equivalent to 1,its performance is improved by nearly 1.8 times compared to the original MP-QKD protocol with a weak coherent source(WCS-MP-QKD),and by 6.8 times higher than that of WCS-MPQKD with passive decoy states(WCS-PDS-MP-QKD).Meanwhile,the key transmission distance can reach 480 km,and surpasses the WCS-PDS-MP-QKD protocol by nearly 40 km.When the total pulse length is greater than 10^(11),the key generation rate is almost equal to that of infinite pulses.It is a promising QKD protocol that breaks the PLOB bound without requiring phase tracking and locking,has a longer transmission distance and a higher key generation rate,and eliminates the potential of side channel attack.
