The algorithm maintains SNR consistent in the entire initial average phase difference space, and has a better SNR performance than the overlap average algorithm. The effectiveness of the algorithm is verified by both theoretical analysis and simulation results. The SNR performance of the bidirectional overlap average algorithm is 5 dB better than that of the direct average algorithm, and 2 dB better than that of the overlap average algorithm, which provides the support for direct P-code acquisition in low SNR.展开更多

To eliminate the shadow effect, we divide the CCAs into several subarrays to obtain the complete output vector. Considering the anisotropic radiation pattern of a CCA, which cannot be separated from the manifold matrix, an improved interpolation method is investigated to transform the directional subarray into omnidirectional virtual nested arrays without non-orthogonal perturbation on the noise vector. Then, the cross-correlation matrix(CCM) of the subarrays is used to generate the consecutive co-arrays without redundant elements and eliminate the noise vector. Finally, the full-rank equivalent covariance matrix is constructed using the output of co-arrays,and the unitary estimation of the signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques(ESPRIT) is performed on the equivalent covariance matrix to estimate the DOAs with low computational complexity. Numerical simulations verify the superior performance of the proposed algorithm, especially under a low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) environment.展开更多

All transmitters take part in the collaboration and the weighted message is transmitted simultaneously. In order to maximize the beamforming gain, the transmitters use one bit feedback information to adjust the phase offset.

The feasibility of the proposed algorithm is proved both experimentally and theoretically. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the convergent speed of the phase alignment.展开更多

By input delay approach, the linearized airship model was transformed into a continuous-time system with time-varying delay. Sufficient conditions were then established based on the constructed Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, which guarantee that the system is mean-square exponentially stable with H∞ performance. The desired controller can be obtained by solving the obtained conditions. Simulation results show that guaranteed minimum H∞ performance γ=1.4037 and fast response of attitude for sampled-data autonomous airship are achieved in spite of the existence of parameter uncertainties.展开更多

In the proposed method, the concept for tour and the length of tour are redefined. Additionally, the directional information is incorporated into the proposed method because it is one of the most important factors that affects the performance of data association. Kalman filter is employed to estimate target states. Computer simulation results show that the proposed method could carry out data association in an acceptable CPU time, and the correct data association rate is higher than that obtained by the data association （DA） algorithm not combined with directional information.展开更多

Finally this paper concludes that the combination of the height-dependent mean winds and the mean temperature structure probably explains the existence of short period,quasi-monochromatic structures observed in airglow images of mesopause region.展开更多

However, many realistic networks exhibit inhomogeneity due to natural and man-made reasons. In this work, the capacity of inhomogeneous hybrid networks with directional antennas for the first time is studied. By setting different node distribution probabilities, the whole network can be devided into dense cells and sparse cells. On this basis, an inhomogeneous hybrid network model is proposed. The network can exhibit significant inhomogeneity due to the coexistence of two types of cells. Then, we derive the network capacity and maximize the capacity under different channel allocation schemes. Finally, how the network parameters influence the network capacity is analyzed. It is found that if there are plenty of base stations, the per-node throughput can achieve constant order, and if the beamwidth of directional antenna is small enough, the network capacity can scale.展开更多

To eliminate the shadow effect, we divide the CCAs into several subarrays to obtain the complete output vector. Considering the anisotropic radiation pattern of a CCA, which cannot be separated from the manifold matrix, an improved interpolation method is investigated to transform the directional subarray into omnidirectional virtual nested arrays without non-orthogonal perturbation on the noise vector. Then, the cross-correlation matrix(CCM) of the subarrays is used to generate the consecutive co-arrays without redundant elements and eliminate the noise vector. Finally, the full-rank equivalent covariance matrix is constructed using the output of co-arrays,and the unitary estimation of the signal parameters via rotational invariance techniques(ESPRIT) is performed on the equivalent covariance matrix to estimate the DOAs with low computational complexity. Numerical simulations verify the superior performance of the proposed algorithm, especially under a low signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) environment.

文摘A novel collaborative beamforming algorithm is proposed in a wireless communication system with multiple transmitters and one receiver. All transmitters take part in the collaboration and the weighted message is transmitted simultaneously. In order to maximize the beamforming gain, the transmitters use one bit feedback information to adjust the phase offset. It tracks the direction in which the signal strength at the receiver can increase. The directional search and perturbation theory is used to achieve the phase alignment. The feasibility of the proposed algorithm is proved both experimentally and theoretically. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can improve the convergent speed of the phase alignment.

文摘A robust H∞ directional controller for a sampled-data autonomous airship with polytopic parameter uncertainties was proposed. By input delay approach, the linearized airship model was transformed into a continuous-time system with time-varying delay. Sufficient conditions were then established based on the constructed Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional, which guarantee that the system is mean-square exponentially stable with H∞ performance. The desired controller can be obtained by solving the obtained conditions. Simulation results show that guaranteed minimum H∞ performance γ=1.4037 and fast response of attitude for sampled-data autonomous airship are achieved in spite of the existence of parameter uncertainties.

文摘Due to the advantages of ant colony optimization （ACO） in solving complex problems, a new data association algorithm based on ACO in a cluttered environment called DACDA is proposed. In the proposed method, the concept for tour and the length of tour are redefined. Additionally, the directional information is incorporated into the proposed method because it is one of the most important factors that affects the performance of data association. Kalman filter is employed to estimate target states. Computer simulation results show that the proposed method could carry out data association in an acceptable CPU time, and the correct data association rate is higher than that obtained by the data association （DA） algorithm not combined with directional information.

文摘Gravity waves with periods close to the Brunt-V(a|¨)is(a|¨)l(a|¨) period of the upper troposphere are often observed at mesopause altitudes as short period,quasi-monochromatic waves.The assumption that these short period waves originate in the troposphere may be problematic because their upward propagation to the mesosphere and lower thermosphere region could be significantly impeded due to an extended region of strong evanescence above the stratopause.To reconcile this apparent paradox,an alternative explanation is proposed in this paper.The inclusion of mean winds and their vertical shears is sufficient to allow certain short period waves to remain internal above the stratopause and to propagate efficiently to higher altitudes.A time-dependent numerical model is used to demonstrate the feasibility of this and to determine the circumstances under which the mesospheric wind shears play a role in the removal and directional filtering of short period gravity waves. Finally this paper concludes that the combination of the height-dependent mean winds and the mean temperature structure probably explains the existence of short period,quasi-monochromatic structures observed in airglow images of mesopause region.

文摘A two-dimensional directional modulation(DM)technology with dual-mode orbital angular momentum(OAM)beam is proposed for physical-layer security of the relay unmanned aerial vehicle(UAV)tracking transmission.The elevation and azimuth of the vortex beam are modulated into the constellation.which can form the digital waveform with the encoding modulation.Since the signal is direction-dependent,the modulated waveform is purposely distorted in other directions to offer a security technology.Two concentric uniform circular arrays(UCAs)with different radii are excited to generate dual vortex beams with orthogonality for the composite signal,which can increase the demodulation difficulty.Due to the phase propagation characteristics of vortex beam,the constellation at the desired azimuth angle will change continuously within a wavelength.A desired single antenna receiver can use the propagation phase compensation and an opposite helical phase factor for the signal demodulation in the desired direction.Simulations show that the proposed OAM-DM scheme offers a security approach with direction sensitivity transmission.

文摘Most of studies on network capacity are based on the assumption that all the nodes are uniformly distributed, which means that the networks are characterized by homogeneity. However, many realistic networks exhibit inhomogeneity due to natural and man-made reasons. In this work, the capacity of inhomogeneous hybrid networks with directional antennas for the first time is studied. By setting different node distribution probabilities, the whole network can be devided into dense cells and sparse cells. On this basis, an inhomogeneous hybrid network model is proposed. The network can exhibit significant inhomogeneity due to the coexistence of two types of cells. Then, we derive the network capacity and maximize the capacity under different channel allocation schemes. Finally, how the network parameters influence the network capacity is analyzed. It is found that if there are plenty of base stations, the per-node throughput can achieve constant order, and if the beamwidth of directional antenna is small enough, the network capacity can scale.

文摘An LD directly-pumped solid-state laser is considered to be one of the most promising mid-infrared light sources because of its simple principle,small size,and compact structure for the generation of mid-infrared(MIR)lasers in the 3-5µm band.However,the quantum defect of LD directly-pumped MIR solid-state lasers will be much larger than that of ordinary near-infrared LD pumped solid-state lasers,which may lead to thermal damage and limit their development.In order to solve this problem,the methods of reducing the specific surface area of the crystal and improving the thermal energy released by the crystal structure are discussed,and the opti⁃mal length of the laser crystal is determined.The cooling structures of barium yttrium fluoride laser crystals(Ho^(3+):BY_(2)F_(8))of different lengths were studied by thermal simulation using COMSOL software.The experimen⁃tal results show that the output power can be increased and the thermal stress in the laser crystal can be alleviated by using the laser crystal whose length is slightly shorter than that of the cooler.The final experiment shows that when the pump repetition rate is 15 Hz and the pulse width is 90µs,the single pulse energy is 7.28 mJ at the out⁃put wavelength of 3.9µm,which is about 3 times as large as that of the crystal with the length of 10 mm(2.81 mJ).Such results should be another breakthrough of our team since the first directly-pumped solid-state MIR laser was realized more than a year ago.It might pave the way for the construction of a feasible MIR laser in the near future.
