Simulation of X‐Ray Reflection Curves in Single Non‐Coplanar Geometry and Its Application

The reflection curves as measured by means of the “Ω‐Scan Method” have been simulated as exactly as possible and practicable. The contributions of the collimator function for different beam geometry and of the spectral distribution are considered. The influence of the dead time of the counting unit on the fluctuations of the used high intensities is described by computer modelling. By means of the simulated curves, the theoretical statistic errors of the method, employed to the orientation determination of quartz, can be estimated and compared to the measured ones. The statistic errors due to the intensity fluctuations were found to be dominating the measuring errors. From the simulated curves also the corrections to be applied to the measuring values of the peak positions are derived. Thus, the real physical values of the orientation coordinates can be determined.     

An analysis of the wide area differential method of geostationary orbit satellites

This work aims to obtain a wide area differential method for geostationary orbit (GEO) constellation. A comparison between the dilution of precision (DOP) of four-dimensional (4D) calculation including satellite clock errors and ephemeris errors and that of three-dimensional (3D) calculation only including ephemeris errors with the inverse positioning theory of GPS shows the conclusion that all the 3D PDOPs are greatly reduced. Based on this, a basic idea of correcting satellite clock errors and ephemeris errors apart is put forward, and moreover, a specific method of separation is proposed. Satellite clock errors are separated in a master station with time synchronization, and all the remaining pseudo-range errors after the satellite clock errors have been deducted are used to work out ephemeris corrections of all GEO satellites. By a comparative analysis of user positioning accuracy before and after differential, the wide area differential method is verified to be quite valid for GEO constellation.

Asymptotic properties of local polynomial regression with missing data and correlated errors

The main objective of this work is the nonparametric estimation of the regression function with correlated errors when observations are missing in the response variable. Two nonparametric estimators of the regression function are proposed. The asymptotic properties of these estimators are studied; expresions for the bias and the variance are obtained and the joint asymptotic normality is established. A simulation study is also included.     

Approximating fixed points of a pair of contractive type mappings in generalized convex metric spaces

In this paper, we consider an Ishikawa type iteration process with errors, which converges to the unique common fixed point of a pair of contractive type mappings in complete generalized convex metric spaces. Furthermore, we obtain the corresponding results in Banach spaces. Our results extend and generalize many known results.     

Projected iterative algorithms for complex symmetric systems arising in magnetized multicomponent transport

We investigate iterative algorithms for solving complex symmetric constrained singular systems arising in magnetized multicomponent transport. The matrices of the corresponding linear systems are symmetric with a positive semi-definite real part and an imaginary part with a compatible nullspace. We discuss well posedness, the symmetry of generalized inverses and Cholesky methods. We investigate projected stationary iterative methods as well as projected orthogonal residuals algorithms generalizing previous results on real systems. As an application, we consider the linear systems arising from the kinetic theory of gases and providing transport coefficients of partially ionized gas mixtures subjected to a magnetic field.

A mixed finite element method for a shallow shell problem with a stress function

In this paper we consider the problem of a deflected mode of a shallow shell. The stress function and the normal component of the displacement of the median surface of the shell are unknown functions. We propose a mixed variational statement of the problem, where the second derivatives of the stress function and the normal component of the displacement of the median surface are additional unknowns. This enables us to construct the finite element approximation of the initial problem. We prove the existence of a unique solution of the approximating problem and estimate the rate of convergence of the discrete solution.     

Decoy-state reference-frame-independent quantum key distribution with both source errors and statistical fluctuations

Reference-frame-independent quantum key distribution(RFI QKD) can generate secret keys without the alignment of reference frames, which is very robust in real-life implementations of QKD systems. However, the performance of decoystate RFI QKD with both source errors and statistical fluctuations is still missing until now. In this paper, we investigate the performance of decoy-state RFI QKD in practical scenarios with two kinds of light sources, the heralded single photon source(HSPS) and the weak coherent source(WCS), and also give clear comparison results of decoy-state RFI QKD with WCS and HSPS. Simulation results show that the secret key rates of decoy-state RFI QKD with WCS are higher than those with HSPS in short distance range, but the secret key rates of RFI QKD with HSPS outperform those with WCS in long distance range.     

Bit error rate analysis with real-time pointing errors correction in free space optical communication systems

Pointing errors caused by the atmospheric turbulence will degrade the performance of free space optical (FSO) communication systems, especially the bit error rate (BER). In this paper, we innovatively analyze the relationship between BER and pointing errors by the probability density functions (PDFs) and intensity displacement in focal plane under the On-Off Keying (OOK) modulation conditions. The closed-loop experimental system is set up in laboratory, where the fast steering mirror (FSM) is real-time controlled by embedded controller with the parallel processing technology and the atmospheric turbulence is simulated by a turbulence simulation box. The results of repeated experiments show that the method of pointing errors correction we proposed is efficient under the conditions of atmospheric turbulence. By utilizing our method, the BER can decrease from nearly 10⁻³ to nearly or even below 10⁻⁹, thus improving the performance of FSO communication systems significantly.
