To control the jumping phenomena and the unstable region of the nonlinear oscillator, feedback controllers were designed. Bifurcation control equations were obtained by using the multiple scales method. And through the numerical analysis, good controller could be obtained by changing the feedback control gain. Then a feasible way of further research of saddle-node bifurcation was provided. Finally, an example shows that the feedback control method applied to the hanging bridge system of gas turbine is doable.展开更多

Based on the differential techniques, the oscillator phase noise, which is the main error source for microwave ranging systems, can be significantly attenuated. Further, since the range measurements are derived on the same satellite, the dual transponder ranging system does not need a time tagging system to synchronize the two satellites. In view of the lack of oscillator noise analysis on the dual transponder ranging model, a comprehensive analysis of oscillator noise effects on ranging accuracy is provided. First, the dual transponder ranging system is described with emphasis on the detailed analysis of oscillator noise on measurement precision. Then, a high-fidelity numerical simulation approach based on the power spectrum density of an actual ultra-stable oscillator is carried out in both frequency domain and time domain to support the presented theoretical analysis. The simulation results under different conditions are consistent with the proposed concepts, which makes the results reliable. Besides, the results demonstrate that a high level of accuracy can be achieved by using this oscillator noise cancelation-oriented ranging method.展开更多

Here thePCSS responds to laser pulse and high-voltage signal while the metal coil generates an oscillating voltage pulseenvelope signal. The generation of this oscillating signal is not related to the input bias voltage of the PCSS, the pulsecircuit components, or the electrode structure of the PCSS, rather it is related to the output characteristic of the PCSS.This physical phenomenon can be explained using the current surge model in photoconducting antenna. Preparingohmic contact electrode on the silicon carbide material forms the PCSS, which generates a large number ofphotogenerated carriers when ultra-fast laser pulses irradiate the surface of the material and Simultaneously applies abias voltage signal between the electrode. At this time inside the PCSS the electric field causes the transient current,radiating electromagnetic wave to the metal coil to generate oscillating signal.展开更多
