基于固定校正板和透镜阵列的机载共形窗口像差校正

为了校正大扫描视场机载共形窗口引入的像差,提出一种基于固定校正板和透镜阵列的静态校正方法。首先使用固定校正板校正静态像差;然后在像面前安置固定的透镜阵列,利用透镜阵列中的各个透镜单元分别校正不同扫描角度的动态像差;最后基于所提方法设计应用在机载共形光学系统中的像差校正器。设计结果表明,所提方法在±42°的扫描视场范围内能够良好地校正共形窗口引入的像差。与其他动态或静态校正方法相比,所提方法可以实现大扫描视场机载共形光学系统像差的校正,同时降低机载共形光学系统的质量,提高系统的稳定性。     

聚谷氨酸发酵过程中ATR-FTIR光谱信号的分数阶基线校正

采用衰减全反射傅里叶变换红外光谱法（ATR-FTIR）,结合多元校正模型对γ-聚谷氨酸（γ-PGA）发酵过程中两种主要底物葡萄糖和谷氨酸钠的浓度进行间接测量,为优化发酵系统控制提供重要的反馈信息。光谱测量中经常出现的基线漂移会严重影响后续多元校正模型的性能,需要采用基线校正算法对光谱进行预处理。现有流行的基线校正算法多数是基于Whittaker Smoother（WS）平滑算法,这些算法均采用整数阶微分对拟合基线进行约束,表达能力有限。针对现有基线校正算法中的整数阶微分自适应性差的问题,利用更加灵活的分数阶微分对基线进行约束,提出了一种基于分数阶的基线校正算法,实现对整数阶基线校正的扩展。总共进行了5个批次的γ-PGA发酵实验,并对不同批次和全部批次的ATR-FTIR光谱数据分别进行了分数阶基线校正,模型的预测精度均得到不同程度的提升。实验结果表明,只有在批次2时,基于整数阶的基线校正效果最好;其他批次的基线校正效果最好时的阶次均为分数阶。这也表明了分数阶微分（包含整数阶微分）对基线的约束更加合理。同时发现全部批次的整体基线校正效果远远差于单一批次的效果,原因可能是各批次发酵光谱的基线是不同的,对不同的批次需要选用不同的阶次以获得最佳的基线校正。此外,γ-PGA发酵样品的ATR-FTIR光谱测量是以蒸馏水为背景,会在3 100~3 600 cm-1波数范围内出现负水峰,形成有害的干扰信号;分数阶基线校正后的光谱表明,分数阶基线校正算法将负的水峰当作基线,在一定程度上进行了消除。综上分析,分数阶基线校正算法不仅扩展了传统整数阶基线校正算法的应用范围,也为消除ATR光谱中负的水峰提供了新的解决思路。     

基于块稀疏学习的光谱基线校正方法

光谱数据在采集过程中易发生基线偏移现象,导致后续的鉴别和分析结果偏离真实值。因此,在光谱数据分析前,需利用基线校正技术获取更为准确的光谱数据。基于稀疏贝叶斯学习（SBL）的基线校正方法无需人工选择参数,基线校正结果在贝叶斯框架下具有最优性。然而,现有的稀疏贝叶斯建模较为简单,无法适用于复杂的稀疏结构。在实际应用中,当纯谱的某些谱峰较宽时,对应的稀疏向量将具有一定的块稀疏特性。利用额外的块稀疏结构,有助于进一步提升SBL方法的性能。为了建模稀疏向量的块稀疏结构特性,在原有的贝叶斯模型框架中引入模式耦合分层模型。得益于稀疏贝叶斯框架固有的学习能力,引入的模式耦合分层模型可自适应地学习稀疏向量的块稀疏结构,从而大幅提升了基于SBL的基线校正方法的性能。为验证本文方法的基线校正性能,首先利用模拟数据集进行仿真实验,并将该方法与SSFBCSP方法和SBL-BC方法在不同噪声方差条件下进行对比。仿真实验结果表明,该方法恢复谱峰较宽纯谱的效果提升明显,特别是当噪声方差较大时,其他方法的性能均有不同程度的下降,但该方法依然具有较好的稳定性。蒙特卡罗仿真实验结果也显示该方法纯谱拟合的标准化均方根误差明显优于其他对比方法。最后,利用色谱数据集与三种矿物的拉曼光谱数据集进行实测数据的基线校正性能验证,结果表明该方法能产生比其他方法更为平滑的纯谱拟合结果,且去噪效果更优。     

基于多弛豫信号补偿的快速磁共振T1ρ散布成像

定量磁共振成像（MRI）可量化组织特性,是科学研究和临床研究的重要工具.旋转坐标系下的自旋-晶格弛豫时间（T_1ρ）能反映水与大分子之间的低频交互作用,在3 T及以上的高场环境下,T_1ρ受水和不稳定质子之间化学交换的影响较大,通过测量弛豫率随自旋锁定场强度的变化而得到其分布情况（T_1ρ散布）,可用于分析和量化质子的交换过程,因此T_1ρ散布是一种重要的定量MRI技术.然而,获得不同自旋锁定场强下T_1ρ加权图像的时间过长,限制了其应用范围.针对这一问题,本研究提出一种基于多弛豫信号补偿策略的快速T_1ρ散布成像方法.该方法将不同锁定频率下的T_1ρ加权图像补偿到同一信号强度水平,并结合低秩与稀疏建立重建模型.实验结果表明,该方法在加速倍数高达7倍时仍获得了较好的重建结果.     

Dynamic range and linearity improvement for zero-field single-beam atomic magnetometer

Zero-field single-beam atomic magnetometers with transverse parametric modulation for ultra-weak magnetic field detection have attracted widespread attention recently. In this study, we present a comprehensive response model and propose a modification method of conventional first harmonic response by introducing the second harmonic correction. The proposed modification method gives improvement in dynamic range and reduction of linearity error. Additionally, our modification method shows suppression of response instability caused by optical intensity and frequency fluctuations. An atomic magnetometer with single-beam configuration is built to compare the performance between our proposed method and the conventional method. The results indicate that our method's magnetic field response signal achieves a 5-fold expansion of dynamic range from 2 nT to 10 nT, with the linearity error decreased from 5% to 1%. Under the fluctuations of 5% for optical intensity and ±15 GHz detuning of frequency, the proposed modification method maintains intensity-related instability less than 1% and frequency-related instability less than 8% while the conventional method suffers 15% and 38%, respectively. Our method is promising for future high-sensitive and long-term stable optically pumped atomic sensors.     

Physical random access signal design for 5G mobile satellite communication systems

In view of the distinctive characteristics of satellite communication, the physical random access signals used in the terrestrial mobile communication system have to be modified or redesigned for the satellite communication system. In this paper, we boost the random access signal energy by repeating the short Zadoff–Chu (ZC) sequence based preamble signal used in the terrestrial system. Different long ZC sequences are used to scramble this cascaded sequence to distinguish different random access signals for multiple random access user equipments. For correlation performance optimization, properties of the roots for both the short and long ZC sequences are mathematically analyzed and derived. Finally, we illustrate how to construct a root set for these different long ZC sequences based on the obtained propositions in a practical way. This analytical framework provides a useful insight into ZC sequence-based random access signal design and performance analysis in mobile satellite communication systems.     

Numerical simulation of flocculation and transport of suspended particles: Application to metered-dose inhalers

This study investigates the dynamics of flocculation and transport of solid particles suspended in a liquid propellant. Polydisperse particles with lognormal size distribution are considered. Collision of particles is presumed to be controlled by upward velocity differential and Brownian motion. These mechanisms are enhanced by the van der Waals force. Flocculation of the particles is described using the continuous form of the Smoluchowski equation. Upward transport of the particles is specified via a convection term. The general dynamics of the system is governed by a nonlinear transient partial integro-differential equation which is solved numerically. The technique employed is based on discretizing the size distribution function using orthogonal collocation on finite elements. This is combined with a finite difference discretization of the physical domain, and an explicit Runge–Kutta–Fehlberg time marching scheme. The numerical analysis is validated by comparing with a closed form analytical solution. The simulation results represent the particle size distribution as a function of time and position. The method allows prediction of the effects of the initial conditions and physical properties of the suspension on its dynamic behavior and phase separation.
