A Multi-Gap Multi-Channel Gas Switch for the Linear Transformer Driver

A multi-gap and multi-channel gas switch with convexo-convex discal planet electrodes was designed and investigated. Eight gaps are formed in series by a trigger electrode, six intermediate electrodes and two high voltage electrodes with a uniform gap length of 5 ram. The self breakdown and triggered breakdown performance of the switch are reported. Both the delay time and jitter decrease with the increase in the trigger voltage, switching coefficient and the decrease in the trigger isolating resistor. The delay time of the switch is about 40 ns, and the jitter is less than 2 ns when charged with 4-85 kV and triggered by a voltage pule of -75 kV. The inductance of the switch is about 30 nH.

Numerical Analysis of the Output-Pulse Shaping Capability of Linear Transformer Drivers

Output-pulse shaping capability of a linear transformer driver （LTD） module under different conditions is studied, by conducting the whole circuit model simulation by using the PSPICE code. Results indicate that a higher impedance profile of the internal transmission line would lead to a wider adjustment range for the output current rise time and a narrower adjustment range for the current peak. The number of cavities in series has a positive effect on the output- pulse shaping capability of LTD. Such an improvement in the output-pulse shaping capability can primarily be ascribed to the increment in the axial electric length of LTD. For a triggering time interval longer than the time taken by a pulse to propagate through the length of one cavity, the output parameters of LTD could be improved significantly. The present insulating capability of gas switches and other elements in the LTD cavities may only tolerate a slightly longer deviation in the triggering time interval. It is feasible for the LTD module to reduce the output current rise time, though it is not useful to improve the peak power effectively.

Influences of Switching Jitter on the Operational Performances of Linear Transformer Drivers-Based Drivers

A whole circuit model of a linear transformer drivers （LTD） module composed of 60 cavities in series was developed in the software PSPICE to study the influence of switching jitter on the operational performances of LTDs. In the model, each brick in each cavity is capable of operating with jitter in its switch. Additionally, the manner of triggering cables entering into cavities was considered. The performances of the LTD module operating with three typical cavity-triggering sequences were simulated and the simulation results indicate that switching jitter affects slightly the peak and starting time of the output current pulse. However, the enhancement in switching jitter would significantly lengthen the rise time of the output current pulse. Without considering other factors, a jitter lower than 10 ns may be necessary for the switches in the LTD module to provide output current parameters with an acceptable deviation.

Optical Diagnostics of Multi-Gap Gas Switches for Linear Transformer Drivers

The trigger characteristics of a multi-gap gas switch with double insulating layers,a square-groove electrode supporter and a UV pre-ionizing structure are investigated aided by a high sensitivity fiber-bundle array detector, a UV fiber detector, and a framing camera, in addition to standard electrical diagnostics. The fiber-bundle-array detector is used to track the turn-on sequence of each electrode gap at a timing precision of 0.6 ns. Each fiber bundle, including five fibers with different azimuth angles, aims at the whole emitting area of each electrode gap and is fed to a photomultiplier tube. The UV fiber detector with a spectrum response of 260-320 nm,including a fused-quartz fiber of 200 μm in diameter and a solar-blinded photomultiplier tube, is adopted to study the effect of UV pre-ionizing on trigger characteristics. The framing camera,with a capacity of 4 frames per shot and an exposure time of 5 ns, is employed to capture the evolution of channel arcs. Based on the turn-on light signal of each electrode gap, the breakdown delay is divided into statistical delay and formative delay. A decrease in both of them, a smaller switch jitter and more channel arcs are observed with lower gas pressure. An increase in trigger voltage can reduce the statistical delay and its jitter, while higher trigger voltage has a relatively small influence on the formative delay and the number of channel arcs. With the UV pre-ionizing structure at 0.24 MPa gas pressure and 60 kV trigger voltage, the statistical delay and its jitter can be reduced by 1.8 ns and 0.67 ns, while the formative delay and its jitter can only be reduced by 0.5 ns and 0.25 ns.

THE BLUE AND MINQUE IN GAUSS-MARKOFF MODEL WITH LINEAR TRANSFORMATION OF THE OBSERVABLE VARIABLES

For a singular linear model A = （y, Xβ, σ2 V） and its transformed model MF = （Fy, FXβ, σ 2FVF＇）, where V is nonnegative definite and X can be rank-deficient, the expressions for the differences of the estimates for the vector of FXβ and the variance factor σ2 are given. Moreover, the necessary and sufficient conditions for the equalities of the estimates for the vector of FXβ and the variance factor σ2 are also established. In the meantime, works in Baksalary and Kala （1981） are strengthened and consequences in Puntanen and Nurhonen （1992）, and Puntanen （1996） are extended.

ON THE DECOMPOSITION OF COMPLEX VECTOR SPACES AND THE JORDAN CANONICAL FORM OF COMPLEX LINEAR TRANSFORMATIONS

New objects characterizing the structure of complex linear transformations areintroduced. These new objects yield a new result for the decomposition of complexvector spaces relative to complex lrnear transformations and provide all Jordan basesby which the Jordan canonical form is constructed. Accordingly, they can result in thecelebrated Jordan theorem and the third decomposition theorem of space directly. and,moreover, they can give a new deep insight into the exquisite and subtle structure ofthe Jordan form. The latter indicates that the Jordan canonical form of a complexlinear transformation is an invariant structure associated with double arbitrary. choices.

Classical and Quantum Behavior of Generalized Oscillators in Terms of Linear Canonical Transformations

The quantum mechanical relationships between time-dependent oscillators, Hamilton-Jacobi theory and an invariant operator are clarified by making reference to a system with a generalized oscillator. We introduce a linear transformation in position and momentum, and show that the correspondence between classical and quantum transformations is exactly one-to-one. We found that classical canonical transformations are constructed from quantum unitary transformations as long as we are concerned with linear transformations. We also show the relationship between the invariant operator and a linear transformation.

Uncertainty Principle for the Quaternion Linear Canonical Transform in Terms of Covariance

An uncertainty principle(UP),which offers information about a signal and its Fourier transform in the time-frequency plane,is particularly powerful in mathematics,physics and signal processing community.Under the polar coordinate form of quaternion-valued signals,the UP of the two-sided quaternion linear canonical transform(QLCT)is strengthened in terms of covariance.The condition giving rise to the equal relation of the derived result is obtained as well.The novel UP with covariance can be regarded as one in a tighter form related to the QLCT.It states that the product of spreads of a quaternion-valued signal in the spatial domain and the QLCT domain is bounded by a larger lower bound.

An Improved Robust Model Predictive Control Approach to Systems with Linear Fractional Transformation Perturbations

In this paper, a robust model predictive control approach is proposed for a class of uncertain systems with time-varying, linear fractional transformation perturbations. By adopting a sequence of feedback control laws instead of a single one, the control performance can be improved and the region of attraction can be enlarged compared with the existing model predictive control （MPC） approaches. Moreover, a synthesis approach of MPC is developed to achieve high performance with lower on-line computational burden. The effectiveness of the proposed approach is verified by simulation examples.

Predicting Nonlinear Wave Trough Distributions Utilizing A Transformed Linear Simulation Method

This paper first proposes a new approach for predicting the nonlinear wave trough distributions by utilizing a transformed linear simulation method. The linear simulation method is transformed based on a Hermite transformation model where the transformation is chosen to be a monotonic cubic polynomial and calibrated such that the first four moments of the transformed model match the moments of the true process. The proposed new approach is applied for calculating the wave trough distributions of a nonlinear sea state with the surface elevation data measured at the coast of Yura in the Japan Sea, and its accuracy and efficiency are convincingly validated by comparisons with the results from two theoretical distribution models, from a linear simulation model and a secondorder nonlinear simulation model. Finally, it is further demonstrated in this paper that the new approach can be applied to all the situations characterized by similar nondimensional spectrum.
