A communication system is implemented on digital signal processors (DSPs) for the underwater acoustic environment. The implemented receiver uses time reversal multi-channel combining followed by a single-channel decision feedback equalizer. Periodic channel estimation is employed to track the channel fluctuations. These techniques are used to mitigate time-varying inter-symbol interference, which is the main challenge in the underwater acoustic channel at operating frequencies greater than 10 kHz. Various optimization tasks are performed to reduce the receiver computational complexity. A fast implementation of the matching pursuit algorithm is tested on the DSP platform. Its performance, in terms of accuracy and run-time, is compared with that of the basic matching pursuit algorithm. Experimental results of the transmission and demodulation of binary phase-shift keying signals at three different symbol rates were obtained in the local Delaware Bay. The low bit error rates demonstrate the effectiveness of our implementation. 相似文献
Abstract This article demonstrates by example that the use of the Gibbs sampler with diffuse proper priors can lead to inaccurate posterior estimates. Our results show that such inaccuracies are not merely limited to small sample settings. 相似文献
The truncation error and propagation error are analyzed for velocity determination through differential GPS carrier phase observations,and an approach for the choice of the best number of points for the central difference method is developed.In order to overcome the disadvantages of existing GPS velocity determination methods,a new velocity determination algorithm is presented,based on combining carrier phase and Doppler observations.The basic idea is that two types of observation are combined by adding the... 相似文献
As a requisite and key step in some gradient-based measurement techniques, the reconstruction of the shape, more generally the scalar potential, from the measured gradient data has been studied for many years. In this work, three types of two-dimensional integration methods are compared under various conditions. The merits and drawbacks of each integration method are consequently revealed to provide suggestions in selection of a proper integration method for a particular application. 相似文献
Reaction calorimetry is a very useful tool to monitor exothermic polymerization reactions as it is based on the estimation of the heat generated by the reaction. The objective of this work is to analyze the performance of an unscented Kalman filter (UKF) for online monitoring of batch vinyl acetate emulsion polymerization reactions. Reactions are performed in isoperibolic and isothermal conditions. The UKF is compared to an extended Kalman filter that has a very poor performance. The results show that the UKF is able to provide good estimates for the conversion, for the reactor and jacket temperatures, for the overall heat transfer coefficient between the reaction medium and the jacket, and for the heat loss from the jacket to the surroundings.
A simple, specific and accurate isocratic RP-HPLC-DAD method was developed for the simultaneous determination of phenylephrine, paracetamol, caffeine and chlorpheniramine in bulk and tablet dosage form. The four contents are present in variable concentrations and have variable chromatographic behavior making the process of analysis very difficult. For present studies a reversed-phase C-18 column (150 mm × 4.5 mm i.d., particle size 5 μm) with mobile phase consisting of acetonitrile, methanol and 10 Mm phosphate buffer 16:22:62 (v/v) (pH of buffer 2.5 ± 0.02, adjusted with ortho phosphoric acid) was used. The flow rate was 1.0 ml/min and eluents were monitored at 280 nm. The mean retention times of phenylephrine, paracetamol, caffeine and chlorpheniramine were found to be 1.8, 3.1, 5.2 and 10.9 min, respectively. The method was validated in terms of linearity, range, specificity, accuracy, precision and robustness. The proposed method was successfully applied to the estimation of phenylephrine, paracetamol, caffeine and chlorpheniramine in combined tablet dosage form. 相似文献
