Optical wavelet de-noising applied in multi-span nonlinear fiber links

In this work, optical wavelet de-noising with several different types of wavelets such as db4, coif4 and dmey wavelet was applied at the end of the 40 Gbit/s multi-span intensity-modulated fiber communication systems. The results of numerical simulations carried out in different fiber links demonstrated that the optical wavelet de-noising method could remove the random amplitude fluctuation induced by the interaction of EDFA’s ASE noise and optical fiber’s dispersion and nonlinearity. The SNR and BER curves of the optical bit sequence without and with optical wavelet de-noising in dispersion compensation fiber link were plotted to show the effectiveness of the wavelet de-noising in the fiber-optic communication systems and wavelet de-noising with demy wavelet can achieve better result than with other type wavelet.     

3-D mesh sequence compression using wavelet-based multi-resolution analysis

In this paper, we present two compression methods for irregular three-dimensional (3-D) mesh sequences with constant connectivity. The proposed methods mainly use an exact integer spatial wavelet analysis (SWA) technique to efficiently decorrelate the spatial coherence of each mesh frame and also to adaptively transmit mesh frames with various spatial resolutions. To reduce the temporal redundancy, the first proposed method applies multi-order differential coding (MDC) to the temporal sequences obtained from SWA. MDC determines the optimal order of the differential coder by analyzing the variance of prediction errors. Comparing with the first order differential coding (FDC) scheme, the method can improve the compression performance. The second proposed method applies temporal wavelet analysis (TWA) to the temporal sequences. In particular, this method offers spatio-temporal multi-resolution coding. Through simulations, we prove that our methods enable efficient lossy-to-lossless compression for 3-D mesh sequences in a single frame work.     

Thresholding methods to estimate copula density

This paper deals with the problem of multivariate copula density estimation. Using wavelet methods we provide two shrinkage procedures based on thresholding rules for which knowledge of the regularity of the copula density to be estimated is not necessary. These methods, said to be adaptive, have proved to be very effective when adopting the minimax and the maxiset approaches. Moreover we show that these procedures can be discriminated in the maxiset sense. We provide an estimation algorithm and evaluate its properties using simulation. Finally, we propose a real life application for financial data.

Wavelet-modified maximum average correlation height filter for out-of-plane rotation invariance

In this paper, we implement a wavelet-modified maximum average correlation height (WaveMACH) filter for recognition of 0-360° out-of-plane rotated targets employing hybrid digital-optical correlator architecture. A chirp function is used with the synthesized WaveMACH filter, which focuses the correlation signals in three different planes, thereby providing the choice of recording a single correlation peak at a particular plane. Signal-to-noise ratio and peak-to-sidelobe ratio have been calculated as metrics of goodness of the proposed WaveMACH filter.     

Time reversal technique for health monitoring of metallic structure using Lamb waves

Time reversal active sensing using Lamb waves is investigated for health monitoring of a metallic structure. Experiments were conducted on an aluminum plate to study the time reversal behavior of A₀ and S₀ Lamb wave modes under narrow band and broad band pulse excitation. Damage in the form of a notch was introduced in the plate to study the changes in the characteristics of the time reversed Lamb wave modes experimentally. Time–frequency analysis of the time reversed signal was carried out to extract the damage information. A measure of damage based on wavelet transform was derived to quantify the hidden damage information in the time reversed signal. It has been shown that time reversal can be used to achieve temporal recompression of Lamb waves under broadband signal excitation. Further, the broad band excitation can also improve the resolution of the technique in detecting closely located defects. This is demonstrated by picking up the reflection of waves from the edge of the plate, from a defect close to the edge of the plate and from defects located near to each other. This study shows the effectiveness of Lamb wave time reversal for temporal recompression of dispersive Lamb waves for damage detection in health monitoring applications.
