Phase retrieval from fringe pattern with 1-D discrete wavelet transform

This paper proposes a novel method to obtain frequency modulation (FM) signals from a single fringe pattern for phase retrieval. First, a 1D discrete Meyer wavelet is employed to decompose the pattern image signal row by row and the soft-thresholding approach is applied to remove noise. The low frequency coefficients of the wavelet decomposition are then set to 0, and the signal is reconstructed. Moreover, the optimal wavelet decomposition level is adaptively determined using a cost function-based method. The reconstructed signal, which no longer contains a background component, is normalized using a nonlinear and piecewise normalization method. The proposed method is faster and more accurate than some other phase retrieval approaches, which is illustrated with two test cases.     

时延估计与双线阵左右舷分辨

针对双线列阵的左右舷分辨问题，特别是双线阵间距较大时的左右舷分辨问题，文中提出了一种以时延估计为理论基础的左右舷分辨方法，将双线阵的左右舷分辨问题转变成对轴向对称的两路波束信号进行时延估计，然后根据时延值的符号判断出目标所处的左右舷。该方法具有算法简单、对阵形畸变不敏感的优点。经过湖试实验数据分析验证，证明是一种简单、有效、可行的左右舷分辨技术。     

Sample-path optimization of convex stochastic performance functions

In this paper we propose a method for optimizing convex performance functions in stochastic systems. These functions can include expected performance in static systems and steady-state performance in discrete-event dynamic systems; they may be nonsmooth. The method is closely related to retrospective simulation optimization; it appears to overcome some limitations of stochastic approximation, which is often applied to such problems. We explain the method and give computational results for two classes of problems: tandem production lines with up to 50 machines, and stochastic PERT (Program Evaluation and Review Technique) problems with up to 70 nodes and 110 arcs.

基于WIA-PA传感器网络的能量有效时间同步算法

WIA-PA协议是一种新型工业级无线传感器网络国际标准。当WIA-PA网络内节点数目增多时,传统的参考广播同步算法RBS以及改进型ERBS算法网络开销非常大。针对这一严峻的问题,提出了一种能量有效的局部最优时间同步算法。该算法对相邻的接收节点在多个参考广播消息的条件下求取平均相位偏差,然后对此平均相位偏差进行最大后验估计,最后根据此估计值调整本地时钟。仿真结果表明,本文所提时间同步算法在同步精度方面比RBS约提高168%,比ERBS约提高24%;同时,同步过程中的网络能耗也大大减少。

Stability and phase transition of localized modes in Bose–Einstein condensates with both two- and three-body interactions

We investigate the stability and phase transition of localized modes in Bose–Einstein Condensates (BECs) in an optical lattice with the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger model by considering both two- and three-body interactions. We find that there are three types of localized modes, bright discrete breather (DB), discrete kink (DK), and multi-breather (MUB). Moreover, both two- and three-body on-site repulsive interactions can stabilize DB, while on-site attractive three-body interactions destabilize it. There is a critical value for the three-body interaction with which both DK and MUB become the most stable ones. We give analytically the energy thresholds for the destabilization of localized states and find that they are unstable (stable) when the total energy of the system is higher (lower) than the thresholds. The stability and dynamics characters of DB and MUB are general for extended lattice systems. Our result is useful for the blocking, filtering, and transfer of the norm in nonlinear lattices for BECs with both two- and three-body interactions.     

Semiclassical matrix model for quantum chaotic transport with time-reversal symmetry

We show that the semiclassical approach to chaotic quantum transport in the presence of time-reversal symmetry can be described by a matrix model. In other words, we construct a matrix integral whose perturbative expansion satisfies the semiclassical diagrammatic rules for the calculation of transport statistics. One of the virtues of this approach is that it leads very naturally to the semiclassical derivation of universal predictions from random matrix theory.

The network approach to calculation of characteristic time constants of the flat two-layer superconducting cable

The matrix method was used to investigate the process of current decay in the samples of flat two-layer superconducting cables. The discrete spectrum of eigen-frequencies has been obtained. Each of these frequencies determines the rate of decay of the correspondent eigen-current. Despite of the increasing of the number of eigen-frequencies with the enlargement of the sample dimensions the spectrum remains finite, as the maximum and minimum frequencies tend to finite limits. An analysis made for the lowest eigen-frequencies showed the corresponding eigen-currents to be slowly decaying long current loops. Within the range of high frequencies the sinusoidal distribution of eigen-currents in the rows of the cable was observed.     

Space time-index plots for probing dynamical nonstationarity

We propose a simple method to efficiently probe dynamical nonstationarity in observed time series. In a space time-index plot, the density distributions as a function of normalized time-index are V-shaped due to nonstationarity. We show that this method is workable for short data sets and typical examples are illustrated.
