基于低频吸声超构材料的复合消声器研究*

针对管道内低频噪声难以抑制的问题，本文基于亥姆霍兹共振腔（HR）阵列吸声板和穿孔管消声器组合，设计了一种复合式宽带消声器。首先利用有限元法仿真分析传统穿孔管消声器，发现中低频消声能力较差，通过嵌入HR阵列吸声板吸收中低频噪声。采用仿真与实验的方式研究吸声板的声学性能：在400-1000 Hz频段内的平均吸声系数达到了0.88。然后对复合式消声器进行数值模拟及3D打印阻抗管实验测试对比：复合式消声器在400-1718Hz频率范围内的平均传递损失为18.15 dB ，最终实现了管道内全频带噪声有效控制。     

Re-evaluation of the mechanical loss factor of hydroxide-catalysis bonds and its significance for the next generation of gravitational wave detectors

New measurements of the mechanical loss factors of hydroxide-catalysis bonds have been made and these have been found to be significantly lower than previously reported. We provide the first estimate for the resulting thermal noise limitation for a practical test mass geometry for next generation gravitational wave detectors.     

Noiseless amplification of images in a confocal cavity

We study the noiseless amplification of an optical image by means of a confocal cavity containing a parametric medium. We demonstrate, in the ideal situation, the possibility of preserving the signal-to-noise ratio while amplifying uniformly the entire image. Some specific effects, which may degrade the performances of the scheme, are taken into account. Received 23 March 2000     

Effect of Four-Wave Mixing on Optimal Placement of Optical Amplifier in WDM Star Networks

In this article, the effect of four-wave mixing (FWM) and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) noise on WDM optical star networks has been investigated. Analysis for the evaluation of probability of error has been carried out (a) when only FWM is present and (b) when both FWM and ASE noise are present. Numerical results are presented in the graphical and tabular forms for the practical values of parameters. Finally, optimal location of the amplifier in the network has been identified as being before the star coupler preceding the receiver.     

Identification of winter tires using vibration signals generated on the road surface

During the winter, traffic regulations state that automobile drivers must use winter tires on unsafe roads such as snowy expressways. The present report is concerned with the development of an automatic tire identification system that can discriminate winter tires from summer tires with high accuracy. The system detects the impact vibration signal that is specifically generated by winter tires when tread blocks with wide grooves strike the road surface during rolling. The signal is picked up by a commercially available vibration sensor. If the signal contains specified impact frequency components, the tire is judged to be a winter tire. Compared with the previous identification system, which used airborne tire/road noise, the proposed system has two advantages. First, it is unaffected by meteorological factors such as wind noise. Second, the proposed system performs well even when the target vehicle is traveling at low speed. We evaluate the performance of the system outdoors using a number of vehicles with various tires and demonstrate an overall improvement in identification accuracy for vehicles traveling at low or moderate speeds.     

Speckle Noise Suppressing Based on a Generalized Parallel Weighted-Average Multidirectional Morphological Filtering Algorithm

In this paper, a generalized parallel weighted-average multidirectional morphological filtering algorithm is presented to suppressing speckle noise. Simulation shows the algorithm can not only effectively suppress speckle noise but also preserve the geometrical features of images. Through comparison, it is proved that the algorithm is superior to F. Sara algorithm.     

Measurement-Based Hyperentanglement Distillation for Lossy and Distortion Photon State

The information content of a photon system can be extended by hyperentanglement, but the quality of hyperentanglement will be decreased by the complicated transmission loss and channel noise in quantum information processing. Here, an efficient measurement-based hyperentanglement distillation protocol (MB-HDP) is presented for depressing the effects of complicated transmission loss and channel noise on hyperentanglement. In the MB-HDP, the nonlocal lossy and distortion photon states are coupled to local hyperentangled Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states using parity measurement and qubit amplification device, and the decoherence caused by bit-flip (phase-flip) error, diverse transmission coefficients and transmission loss can be depressed by the successful measurement results, which can increase the quality of nonlocal hyperentangled photon state. This MB-HDP broadens the application scope of hyperentanglement distillation to nonlocal lossy and distortion photon state with a lower degree of entanglement. In addition, the MB-HDP can further improve the quality of nonlocal hyperentangled photon state by coupling multiple copies of lossy and distortion hyperentangled photon state with local hyperentangled GHZ states. This work demonstrates the ability of measurement-based method for ensuring the quality of nonlocal hyperentanglement, which can improve the integrity and capacity of long-distance quantum information processing.     

一种改进的微光夜视系统视距探测方程

视距是评估微光夜视成像系统性能的一个重要参数。随着微光夜视探测技术的发展,经典视距模型的视距仿真结果与实测结果出现了一些偏差,特别是在10-3 lx低照度条件下视距仿真结果不甚理想,这对微光夜视仪在实际应用中造成了很大的阻碍。针对这一问题,从微光成像系统成像链路的三个环节对经典视距模型进行修正：考虑大气透过率对微光夜视系统视距的影响并对经典视距模型中的大气透过率因子进行修正;基于像增强器噪声因子对视距模型进行修正;考虑人眼视觉传递特性对微光夜视系统视距的影响,在系统的传递函数模型中加入了简化的人眼视觉模型。进而推导出改进的视距模型。结合野外试验数据,验证了改进视距模型的有效性和实用性,这对于微光夜视系统的设计、评估和应用具有一定的指导性意义。
