多元阵时间反转镜被动定位技术研究

摘要单水听器和二元阵时间反转镜处理都可以有效实现目标检测和定位，但多元阵时反镜处理的定位精度和水平定位距离远优于单水听器或二元阵定位处理。本文先简述了时间反转镜定位技术的发展和近况，又详细介绍了多元阵时间反转镜定位技术的基本原理，并借鉴乘积阵处理理论利用射线传播模型给出了多元被动时间反转镜定位的算法和公式。仿真和试验数据处理证明，多元阵时反镜处理效果明显优于二元阵时间反转镜处理，即利用阵增益后时反镜性能改善明显。对四元阵海试数据时间反转镜分析处理结果表明：该方法能实现目标被动定位，且对10公里处静止目标其水平定位误差仅为15％。但该方法运算量太大，很难实现实时运算，因此，其工程应用还有许多问题待解决。     

Generation and suppression of a new hyperchaotic nonlinear model with complex variables

In this paper, we introduce a new hyperchaotic complex Chen model. This hyperchaotic complex system is constructed by adding a complex nonlinear term to the third equation of the chaotic complex Chen system with consideration it’s all variables are complex. The new system is a 6-dimensional continuous real autonomous hyperchaotic system. The properties of this system including invariance, dissipation, equilibria and their stability, Lyapunov exponents, Lyapunov dimension, bifurcation diagrams and hyperchaotic behavior are studied. Different forms of hyperchaotic complex Chen systems are constructed. We suppress the hyperchaotic behavior of our system via passive control method by using one complex controller. The hyperchaotic attractors of the new system are converted to its unstable trivial fixed point and tracked to its unstable non trivial fixed points and periodic orbits. Block diagrams of our system are designed by using Matlab/Simulink after and before the suppression process to ensure the validity of the analytical results.     

Modelización numérica del comportamiento estructural cíclico de barras esbeltas de acero con pandeo restringido

This work presents a numerical model of the cyclic structural behavior of dissipative buckling-restrained braces, commonly used as an alternative to classical concentric braces for seismic protection of building frames and other structures. Such devices are usually composed of a slender steel core embedded in a stockiest casing that is intended to prevent its buckling when it is under compression. The casing is made either of mortar or steel, and a sliding interface is interposed between the core and the casing to prevent excessive shear stress transfer. The behavior of the steel core is described by a damage and plasticity model; the behavior of the mortar casing is described by an isotropic damage model and the sliding behavior of the interface is described by a contact penalty model. These 3 models are implemented in the Abaqus software package following an explicit formulation. In a previous article (published in an earthquake engineering journal) the model was briefly described, its ability to reproduce the cyclical behavior of buckling-restrained braces was preliminarily pointed out and their results were satisfactorily compared with those of experimental tests. The aim of this paper is to describe the model thoroughly and to present new judgments about its usefulness.     

Flexible broadcasting and multicasting in 4λ × 10 Gb/s AOPR TWDM PON system

In this letter, we propose a new architecture of Time Wavelength Division Multiplexing Passive Optical Network (TWDM PON) system to support dynamic multi wavelength allocation (DMWA) in both upstream and downstream directions using an integrated semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA) and arrayed waveguide grating (AWG) with multi wavelength select continuous wave (CW) pump probe signal module. The significance of this architecture is the flexible routing function with the capability of multicasting and broadcasting between multiple optical line terminal (OLT) PON port with multiple optical distribution network (ODN) link using a new wavelength tuning free (WTF) OLT transmitter module to eliminate wavelength tuning delay in downstream signal utilizing multicasting Cross Gain Modulation (XGM) wavelength conversion. The experimental results show that 4λ × 10-Gb/s TWDM PON system can be used to connect 4096 users with the conventional fixed wavelength OLT transceivers with 36 dB link loss.     

Optimal design of 32 channels spectrum slicing WDM for optical fiber access network system

In this article, the spectrum sliced dense wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network (SS-DWDM–PON) has been investigated as a power efficient and cost effective solution for optical access networks. In this work an AWG demultiplexer is used to operate as slicing system. The high speed SS-DWDM system has been realized and investigated for 32 channels with data rate up to 3 Gb/s using broadband ASE source (LED). The 3 Gb/s signals both non-return-to-zero (NRZ) and return-to-zero (RZ) were demonstrated in 40 km optical fiber link with BER < 10⁻¹². The results obtained here demonstrate that SS-DWDM is well suited for Fiber-to-the-Home (FTTH) network.     

Simulation of Fiber to the Home at 10 Gbit/s using GE-PON architecture

In this paper, a fiber communication system is employed using Giga Ethernet Passive Optical Network (GE-PON) architecture. In this architecture an optical fiber is employed directly from a Central Office to the home. A 1:8 splitter is used as a PON element which establishes communication between a Central Office to different users. The architecture has been investigated for different lengths from a Central Office to the PON in terms of BER. For 10 Gbit/s system the plots between the BER and transmission distance are plotted and it are seen that as the distance increases beyond the 15 km the BER is increased very sharply. The results in the form of voice and data spectrum for different users of FTTH with GE-PON architecture are shown.     

Morphological and compositional analysis of passive film on austenitic stainless steel in nitric acid medium

Passive film properties of type 304L stainless steel in nitric acid medium are investigated in both ex situ and in situ conditions. Ex situ results revealed that variation in passive film morphology occurs depending upon the concentration and time of immersion. In situ surface morphological investigation showed formation of platelet like structures at lower concentrations (0.1 M, 0.5 M), and towards higher concentration (0.6 M, 1 M) the platelet like structures got agglomerated, homogenized and started depleting from the surface leading to opening up of oxide boundaries. Compositional analysis of the passive film revealed duplex nature at lower concentration consisting of hydroxide and oxide layer, and with increasing concentration oxide layer predominates over the surface.     

Analysis of physical layer performance of hybrid optical-wireless access network

The hybrid optical-wireless access network (HOWAN) is a favorable architecture for next generation access network. It is an optimal combination of an optical backhaul and a wireless front-end for an efficient access network. In this paper, the HOWAN architecture is designed based on a wavelengths division multiplexing/time division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM/TDM PON) at the optical backhaul and a wireless fidelity (WiFi) technology at the wireless front-end. The HOWAN is proposed that can provide blanket coverage of broadband and flexible connection for end-users. Most of the existing works, based on performance evaluation are concerned on network layer aspects. This paper reports physical layer performance in terms of the bit error rate (BER), eye diagram, and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the communication system. It accommodates 8 wavelength channels with 32 optical network unit/wireless access points (ONU/APs). It is demonstrated that downstream and upstream of 2 Gb/s can be achieved by optical backhaul for each wavelength channel along optical fiber length of 20 km and a data rate of 54 Mb/s per ONU/AP along a 50 m outdoor wireless link.     

Passive axial magnetic bearing with Halbach magnetized array in magnetically suspended control moment gyro application

The paper presents a special configuration of passive axial magnetic bearing with segmented Halbach magnetized array in magnetically suspended control moment gyro (MSCMG). Peculiarity of presented passive axial magnetic bearing is its ability to provide angular stiffness so that it can produce gyro moment when it is used in MSCMG. The MSCMG with this passive axial magnetic bearing can efficiently reduce the power loss when it supplies gyro moment compared with the five degrees of freedom (5-DOF) MSCMG. The characteristics of the suspension force and stiffness of the passive axial magnetic bearing are studied using finite element method (FEM). The performance of the presented passive axial magnetic bearing with Halbach magnetized array is verified by a prototyped MSCMG.     

Tractor cabin’s passive suspension parameters optimization via experimental and numerical methods

Reduction of transmitted vibrations of tractor cabin which is caused by road roughness is the major objective of this study; consequently operator health can be achieved. This objective is carried out via experimental measurements and finite element modeling. For this purpose the vertical acceleration of the cabin as well as the rear axle of the tractor is measured in different road conditions and forward speeds. However, it should be mentioned that tests were carried out according to the ISO 2631-1985 but no measurements were done on the driver’s seat. Then the finite element model of the cabin’s tractor is developed and the dynamic response of the cabin interior (with the measured axle acceleration as input dynamic force) is obtained. At the third step the suspension parameters are calculated by comparing the accelerations obtained from the model and measurements. Finally the suspension parameters are optimized according to ISO 2631-1985 via iterative method.
